The Echmepteryx Hageni Complex (Psocoptera: Lepidopsocidae) in Florida
Abstract
The Echmepteryx hageni complex in Florida includes 3 species. Two are described as new and a full description of E. hageni (Packard) is presented. In Florida, E. youngi n. sp. seems to be the only bisexual member of the complex. Males of E. intermedia n. sp. are unknown, and those of E. hageni are extremely rare. In southern Florida E. youngi occurs in most plant communities dominated by trees or shrubs but where its range overlaps that of E. hageni, it is restricted almost entirely to the sand scrub communities and occurs primarily on 2 species of pine.Downloads
