    Notes: [Auszug] SIR,? K. M. S. Aziz (October 14, page 544) misquotes F. E. G. Cox (August 19, page 646) when referring to the use of insecticides for the eradication of tsetse flies (principally Glossina morsitans) from some 27,500 km2 of riverine vegetation in Nigeria. This was achieved by ground spray techniques ...

    Notes: Abstract. In this article we analyse the successful attempt by a group of interests concerned with water reorganization during the early 1970s to prevent a radical change in administrative arrangements concerning land drainage. Despite the apparently esoteric nature of the policy area, the‘politics of land drainage’was fundamentally concerned with the important matter of what has been called‘the business concept’of government. The case study also provides a useful insight into the way in which established interests may have succeeded in‘colonizing’certain central government departments. This suggests that a model of pressure group activity depicting pressure on the centre may be misleading for certain areas of policy. We also suggest that the evidence provided by a study of the politics of water reorganization sheds some light on contrasting departmental styles of policy-making.

    Notes: Various commentators have expressed their subjective impressions that ‘the environment’ emerged suddenly as a political issue. That the number of groups, journals and books relating to ‘the environment’ has dramatically increased is indisputable. What is not clear, however, is whether the increase has been in the awareness of relationships between problems which could then be subsumed under the general heading ‘the environment’ or whether increased attention has been paid to the component problems. It is possible that the interest in issues such as water pollution, resource conservation and air pollution was of long standing and that the only change was a growing popularization of the label ‘environmental’ by those who wrote about the subject in the press. The object of this study is to test the latter hypothesis by means of a content analysis of The Times.

    Notes: [Auszug] Glossina spp. are larviparous, and have a long reproductive life, a single egg being ovulated at approximately 9-d intervals at 25 C, and embryogenesis and larval development taking place in the uterus. After larviposition, the third instar larva does not feed and, in nature, rapidly burrows into ...

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des groupes de femelles de Glossina austeni et Gl. morsitans morsitans sont nourris sur des lapins, euxmêmes alimentés avec des aliments artificiels de type commercial, qui ont été ou non additionnés de composés chimiques coccidiostatiques, soit 75 ppm de sulfaquinoxaline et 7,5 ppm de pyrimethamine. Quand les glossines sont nourries sur des lapins ayant reçu l'aliment additionné des substances coccidiostatiques, la fécondité de G. austeni (en termes de production de pupes viables par femelle) est réduite de façon nette, bien que la longévité demeure inaffectée; G. m. morsitans se révèle moins sévèrement touchée. Dans les expériences conçues pour étudier l'effet de la sulfaquinoxaline et de la pyrimethamine, les lapins reçoivent un aliment en poudre auquel sont ajoutées des quantités appropriées de ces substances. Des groupes de femelles de G. austeni nourries sur des lapins ayant reçu un aliment contenant 75 ppm de sulfaquinoxaline et 7,5 ppm pyrimethamine se reproduisent normalement pendant un premier cycle reproducteur, après quoi elles engendrent un grand nombre de larves avortées et beaucoup de femelles deviennent éventuellement stériles. Les pupes produites par G. austeni au cours des cycles reproducteurs plus tardifs sont plus légères et moins viables que celles produites lors du ler cycle. Quand le taux des composés coccidiostatiques est quadruplé dans l'aliment des lapins, la fécondité de Gl. m. morsitans est aussi fortement réduite, sans effet sur la longévité. Quand Gl. morsitans est alimentée artificiellement sur du sang contenant 75 et 300 ppm. de sulfaquinoxaline, la fécondité des femelles est sérieusement réduite. Aucune différence ne se décèle quant aux effets relatifs de ces deux doses du composé coccidiostatique; il est possible que les mouches en absorbent une même petite quantité dans les deux cas, en raison de la faible solubilité du produit, qui n'est soluble que dans des solutions alcalines. La sulfaquinoxaline, aux faibles doses absorbées agit comme un insecticide systémique à des doses sub-létales. Ce coccidiostatique peut agir en interférant avec le métabolisme du folate au niveau des ovaires; les effets sur la fécondité deviennent progressivement plus marqués chez les femelles âgées et chez celles qui ont cessé de se reproduire on observe des ovaires atrophiés. L' incidence de ces faits sur les conditions d'élevage des Glossines, et d'autres arthropodes hématophages, est discuté.
    Notes: Abstract Groups of females of Glossina austeni and G. morsitans morsitans fed on rabbits with 75 ppm sulphaquinoxaline and 7.5 ppm pyrimethamine in their diets had markedly lower fecundity than other groups fed on rabbits supplied with additive-free diets. There was little effect on the longevity of female flies. Females of G. austeni produced normal numbers of puparia for one reproductive cycle, large numbers of aborted larvae in succeeding reproductive cycles and many females eventually became sterile. The effect on G. m. morsitans was less marked but when the dose rate of the additives in the rabbit diet was quadrupled this species also showed greatly reduced fecundity, with no effect on longevity. In G. austeni, those puparia which were produced in later reproductive cycles were lighter and less viable than those produced in the first cycle. It is concluded that the toxicant in the rabbit diet was sulphaquinoxaline acting as a systemic insecticide but, at these low dose rates, at a sub-lethal level. The possible mode of action of sulphaquinoxaline and the significance of the results for the laboratory rearing of haematophagous arthropods are discussed.
