Biology

We collected 20 leaves of Duguetia furfuracea infested with galls at the type locality of Mononeuron duguetiae in February of 2011. All leaves were placed in a plastic bag and maintained at room temperature. Each of the collected leaves had between three to 10 spheroidal galls with a maximum diameter of approximately 1 cm (Fig. 3A). Twenty five specimens of Mononeuron duguetiae emerged from the galls a few days after being collected, and two or more individuals were observed to emerge from each gall. Moreover, two specimens of an unidentified cecydomiid species and the following wasp taxa emerged after most of the specimens of Mononeuron duguetiae had emerged: Torymidae (six specimens belonging to an unidentified species), Eurytomidae (13 specimens of an unidentified species assigned to Sycophila Walker, and eight specimens of an unidentified species), Eulophidae (21 individuals of an unidentified species), and Diapriidae (one unidentified specimen). Members of some of these wasp families are usually parasitoids (Torymidae, Eulophidae), whereas others are generally phytophagous (e.g. Eurytomidae). We could not confirm that Mononeuron duguetiae is the species that induces the above galls, though its early emergence suggests that it might be cecidogenic.
Comments. The genus Mononeuron has been mainly characterised by the absence of hind wing vein cu-a. This feature was employed to distinguish the genus in the key to New World doryctine genera provided by Marsh (1997)[1]. We found that some of the examined specimens of Mononeuron duguetiae have hind wing vein cu-a spectral (sensu Mason 1986[2]) but present. Some described species of Allorhogas also have a nebulous or even spectral hind wing vein cu-a (e.g. Allorhogas argentinus, Allorhogas shawi; Marsh 2002[3]).
In our Bayesian analysis, Mononeuron duguetiae was more closely related to Monitoriella and Labania than to the species of Allorhogas, although with marginally non- significant support. This contrasts with our morphological examinations, which show that there are various external morphological features in Mononeuron duguetiae shared with species of Allorhogas. The latter genus is a mainly Neotropical and Nearctic group with 33 described and an undetermined number of undescribed species. Among the features shared by Mononeuron duguetiae and members of Allorhogas are an excavated frons, hind wing vein r-m present, pronotal collar very short or absent, propodeum usually with semicircular or subtriangular shaped basal median areas, basal sternal plate of first metasomal tergum less than 0.25 length of tergum; metasoma sculptured on first three terga, hind coxa with small but distinct basal tubercle, fore wing vein r-m present, first subdiscal cell open at apex, and hind wing vein m-cu usually curved toward wing apex, often straight to wing margin but never angled toward wing base. Further molecular phylogenetic studies employing additional markers and more taxa, especially for the species of Allorhogas, will confirm the relationships of Mononeuron duguetiae with respect to other gall associated doryctine genera.
We also examined various specimens assigned to Mononeuron duguetiae deposited in the DCBU collection that show some morphological differences, and which might represent an undescribed species. These specimens were collected in the type locality of Mononeuron duguetiae and all of them were reared from the same type of galls on Duguetia furfuracea. They differ from our concept of Mononeuron duguetiae by having the vertex, mesopleuron and basal areas of propodeum mostly smooth, and the first metasomal median tergite smooth and with brown colour. Further molecular data will allow us to confirm whether this represents an undescribed species of Mononeuron or intraspecific variation within Mononeuron duguetiae.
