1. [PROVISIONAL] Mitochondrial genomes of genus Atta (Formicidae: Myrmicinae) reveal high gene organization and giant intergenic spacers
Abstract The ants of the genus Atta are considered an important pest to agriculture in Latin América, although, Atta species are important contributors to ecosystem functions in the various habitats in which they occur. Next-generation sequencing product millions or billions of short reads, however, is necessary to applied methods for assembly of the genome

2. Dragonflies and damselflies (Insecta: Odonata) from a Cerrado area at Triângulo Mineiro, Minas Gerais, Brazil
Resumo: Odonata é considerada a segunda ordem de insetos com maior número de espécies de insetos aquáticos. Sua riqueza global é estimada em cerca de 6.000 espécies descritas. A odonatofauna encontrada no Brasil representa cerca de 14% da riqueza mundial, no entanto, o conhecimento sobre a distribuição de libélulas brasileiras ainda é incipiente. E

3. Biodiversity of Coreoidea and Pentatomidae (Heteroptera) from Atlantic forest protected areas. Insights into their conservation.
ABSTRACT Although the majority of threatened species are likely to be tropical insects, knowledge of the diversity, ecological role and impact of insect biodiversity loss on ecosystem processes is very limited. Specimens belonging to four families of Heteroptera: Pentatomidae, Coreidae, Alydidae and Rhopalidae, were collected from a protected area in the Par

4. A intensificação da agricultura e o papel de árvores isoladas na conservação da fauna de formigas do cerrado fora de unidades de conservação / The intensification of agriculture and the role of isolated trees in the conservation of savanna ant assemblages outside protected areas
The destruction of natural habitats and the intensification of agriculture are considered the major threats to biodiversity conservation. Given the rapid expansion of agricultural frontiers in the areas of native vegetation in the Cerrado, it is imperative to know the capacity of conservation of the native fauna in agroecosystems. Thus, this study aims to de

5. Development of the mosaic of dominant arboreal ants and its importance to the biological control of insects associated with cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) / Desenvolvimento do mosaico de formigas arborícolas dominantes e sua importância no controle biológico natural dos insetos associados ao cacaueiro (Theobroma cacao L.)
Agroforests contribute to the survival of many native species. The cocoa plantations inserted in the Atlantic Forest biome in Southeast Bahia contribute to the conservation of a large amount of organisms, including ants. The evaluation of the ontogenetic succession of ants can help understanding the mosaic dynamics of the arboreal ants. Since this mosaic can

7. The influence of habitat integrity and physical-chemical water variables on the structure of aquatic and semi-aquatic Heteroptera
This work aimed to assess the effect of certain physical-chemical variables and the Habitat Integrity Index (HII) have on an aquatic and semi-aquatic heteropteran community. We collected in five streams (from 1st to 4th order) that differed in habitat integrity, in order to test 1) whether heteropteran richness decreases with the Habitat Integrity Index; and

8. Análise quantitativa de células digestivas e regenerativas do intestino médio de Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides (Hymenoptera; Apidae) / Quantitative analysis of digestive and regenerative cells of the midgut of Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides (Hymenoptera; Apidae)
Bees have economic importance for their role as crops pollinators, production of honey, wax and propolis. The stingless bees (tribe Meliponini) are specific pollinators of many native plant species, most notably the species Melipona quadrifasciata anthidioides (Kerr et al., 1996). Thus, a deeper understanding of the biology of this species may facilitate a b

9. Bases ecológicas para o manejo de Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) biótipo B (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) em sistemas orgânicos de produção de tomate
The whitefly Bemisia tabaci biotype B stands out, among the diverse community of pest herbivores that colonize the tomato crop, due to the direct damages and transmission of several pathogenic viruses (Geminiviridae) causing productivity losses. The spraying of insecticides for its control selects resistant populations and promotes the dispersion of adults t

10. Genetic structure of Melipona capixaba Moure e Camargo, 1994 (Hymenoptera: Apidae) / Estrutura genética de Melipona capixaba Moure e Camargo, 1994 (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
The bee specie Melipona capixaba, popularly known as uruçu negra (black uruçu), is endemic in the mountainous region of the State of Espirito Santo, Brazil, and it is included since 2003 in the list of threatened species of IBAMA, the only eusocial insect in this list. In order to characterize the genetic diversity and populational structure of this bee, s

11. Degradation of coastal sandy vegetation: consequences for dung beetles (Scarabaeinae) community and the conservation of the endangered species Dichotomius schiffleri / DegradaÃÃo da vegetaÃÃo de restinga litorÃnea: ImplicaÃÃes para a comunidade de Scarabaeinae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) e conservaÃÃo da espÃcie ameaÃada Dichotomius schiffleri
A costa brasileira tem sido explorada e degradada intensivamente desde a colonizaÃÃo europÃia. Como resultado, Ãreas de alta relevÃncia ambiental, como a Mata AtlÃntica e seus ecossistemas associados, tÃm sido convertidas em Ãreas urbanas. O uso de escarabeÃneos como bioindicadores tem sido aceito como uma forma de avaliar o grau de distÃrbio causa

12. Composição e distribuição de coleoptera aquáticos (insecta) em córregos de baixa ordem no Estado de São Paulo, Brasil.
The beetles are an important part of the insect fauna of most aquatic ecosystems. However, with the exception of the Elmidae, they have not been used extensively for water quality evaluation. This is due in large part to the fact that most water beetle adults and larvae, with the exception of the elmids, some adult Dryopidae and larvae Psephenidae, are air-b
