ASPECTS OF THE HISTORY AND BIOGEOGRAPHY OF THE BEE MITES Tropilaelaps clareae AND T. koenigerum
The paper deals with aspects of the two known brood parasites of honey bees from Asia, namely the tropical bee mites Tropilaelaps clareae Delfinado et Baker and Tropilaelaps koenigerum Delfinado-Baker et Baker. These species of Tropilaelaps belong to the family Laelapidae (Mesostigmata). They feed on bee larvae and pupae causing brood malformation and the death of bees. T. clareae occurs on 5 s...
متن کاملParasitic mites of honey bees: life history, implications, and impact.
The hive of the honey bee is a suitable habitat for diverse mites (Acari), including nonparasitic, omnivorous, and pollen-feeding species, and parasites. The biology and damage of the three main pest species Acarapis woodi, Varroa jacobsoni, and Tropilaelaps clareae is reviewed, along with detection and control methods. The hypothesis that Acarapis woodi is a recently evolved species is rejecte...
متن کاملLife history, ecology and longevity in bats.
The evolutionary theory of aging predicts that life span should decrease in response to the amount of mortality caused by extrinsic sources. Using this prediction, we selected six life history and ecological factors to use in a comparative analysis of longevity among 64 bat species. On average, the maximum recorded life span of a bat is 3.5 times greater than a non-flying placental mammal of si...
متن کاملEvolutionary ecology of human life history.
The human life history is characterized by several unusual features, including large babies, late puberty and menopause, and the fact that there is a strong cultural influence on reproductive decisions throughout life. In this review I examine human life history from an evolutionary ecological perspective. I first review the evidence for life history trade-offs between fertility and mortality i...
متن کاملEvolutionary Ecology Models of Weed Life History
Weeds and invasive plants perform the colonization niche by seizing locally available opportunity spacetime created by human activity. The urge to understand and predict weed life history behavior provides a strong scientific and practical motivation to develop models. Most current weed models are quantitative and demographic. This chapter is a critical review of the limitations of demographic ...
