Lepidópteros 5 6 Prólogo En la actualidad, el sistema agrario posee una multifuncionalidad en su actividad, no solo pro- ducir alimentos y energía para los habitantes, además lo debe realizar minimizando las externalidades, que cualquier actividad productiva produce sobre el medio ambiente, respondiendo a una demanda cada vez más exigente, tanto cualitativa como cuantitativa. Es por ello que la protección vegetal de los cultivos destinados al usufructo del hombre posee un rol cada vez más relevante. Concomitantemente las plagas producen frecuentes ataques a los cultivos destinados al consumo humano, es por lo tanto que su control y minimización de los efectos negativos sobre los cultivos y medio ambiente poseen una alta preeminencia. El presente libro, posee como principal objetivo la de servir como guía para aquellos usuarios que necesiten orientarse en el estudio de los Lepidópteros de importancia agronómica, con la finalidad de conocer aspectos de los mismos, tanto para su identificación como para iniciar las etapas de control. Es por ello que la obra no posee la función de ser un trabajo exhaustivo, pero se espera que se constituya en una fuente de orientación de los primeros pasos de alumnos de las Ciencias Agrarias, Ciencias Biológicas y carreras afines que deseen iniciarse en su estudio del Orden, como también para investigadores y profesionales que necesiten de ella con la finalidad de adentrarse en trabajos de mayor especialización. La obra, se constituye como una revisión bibliográfica y actualización del estado del conocimien- to, de un orden de suma importancia para la producción agrícola de nuestro país. Es por ello que como objetivo derivado de la presente se propende a la mejora de la protección vegetal de nuestra producción y que se resume en una mejora e incremento de la misma, debiendo resaltar que la ultima obra, de similar características se realizó en la década de los 60. El lector pondrá encontrar, para cada especie, una descripción morfológica, algunos aspectos biológicos asociados al manejo integrado de plagas (MIP), fotografías a color originales realizadas por los autores, de estados adultos e inmaduros que permiten un fácil reconocimiento e identificación de la especie. Es por lo expuesto que se considera que la presente obra constituye un eslabón en la cadena del conocimiento agropecuario, que la fortalece y colabora en la constitución de una sinergia cognitiva de alta relevancia.

    Characterization of Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus immediate early protein ME53: The role of conserved domains in BV production, viral gene transcription, and evidence for ME53 presence at the ribosome by Robyn Ralph A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Molecular and Cellular Biology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Robyn Ralph, December, 2018 ABSTRACT CHARACTERIZATION OF AUTOGRAPHA CALIFORNICA NUCLEOPOLYHEDROVIRUS IMMEDIATE EARLY PROTEIN ME53: THE ROLE OF CONSERVED DOMAINS IN BV PRODUCTION, VIRAL GENE TRANSCRIPTION, AND EVIDENCE FOR ME53 PRESENCE AT THE RIBOSOME Robyn Ralph Advisors: University of Guelph, 2018 Dr. Peter Krell Dr. Sarah Wooton The baculovirus AcMNPV early/late gene me53 is required for efficient BV production and is conserved in all alpha and betabaculoviruses. The 449-amino acid protein contains several highly conserved functionally important domains including two putative C4 zinc finger domains (ZnF-N and ZnF-C) whose cysteine residues are 100% conserved. One purpose of this study is to confirm the presence of two zinc binding domains in ME53, as well as determine their role in virus infection and viral gene transcription. Interestingly, deletion of ZnF-C results in an early delay of BV production from 12 to 18 hours post transfection correlating to ME53's cytoplasmic localization. Cytoplasmic functions at early times post-transfection may include translational regulation, which is supported by yeast-2-hybrid data that ME53 interacts with the host 40S ribosomal subunit protein RACK1. In this study the association of ME53 with the ribosomes of virus infected cells was also investigated. iii DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to my father, Ronald James Ralph.

It also follows the up-to-date order and taxonomy of Pohl et al. (2010), rather than that of Hodges et al. (1983). Brian Scholtens, Greg Pohl and Jean-François Landry collecting moths at a sheet illuminated by a mercury vapor (MV) light, Tolman Bridge, 24 July 2003, during the 2003 Olds meetings of the Lepidopterist’s Society (C.D. Bird image). Tolman Bridge, is located in the valley of the Red Deer River, 18 km (10 miles) east of the town of Trochu. The bridge and adjoining Park land are in the north half of section 14, range 22, township 34, west of the Fourth Meridian. The coordinates at the bridge are 51.503N and 113.009W. The elevation ranges from around 600 m at the river to 800 m or so near the top of the river breaks. In a Natural Area Inspection Report dated 25 June 1982 and in the 1989 Trochu 82 P/14, 1:50,000 topographic map, the land southwest of the bridge was designated as the “Tolman Bridge Municipal Park” while that southeast of the bridge was referred to as the “Tolman Bridge Recreation Area”. In an Alberta, Department of the Environment, Parks and Protected Areas Division paper dated 9 May 2000, the areas on both sides of the river are included in “Dry Island Buffalo Jump Provincial Park”.

[email protected] ABSTRACT During more than half a century, Luis Peña and later his collaborator Alfredo Ugarte, gathered all known butterfl y data and suspected Chilean specimens to publish their seminal book on the butterfl ies of Chile (Peña and Ugarte 1997). Their work summarized the accumulated knowledge up to the end of the 20th century. Since then much additional work has been done by the authors, resulting in the descriptions of numerous new species as well as establishing new species records for Chile, especially in the families Lycaenidae and Nymphalidae (Satyrinae). The list of these two families is still not com- plete, as several new species will be published soon and will appear in part II of this paper. The present work involving four families updates the Chilean list by: 1) describing one new species of Pieridae, 2) describing one new subspecies of Nymphalidae (Heliconiinae), 3) adding in total 10 species and two subspecies to the Chilean list.

It also includes a number of redeterminations and additions to the information in the earlier reports. Buffalo Lake Naturalist’s 15 September 2002 field trip in Big Knife Provincial Park, Jodi Vincent and Charles Bird kneeling; Ann Bird, Mary Muhlbach, Wayne Kinsella, Nora and Hugh Charles, Lorreen and John Beggs in the back. THE AREA 2 Big Knife Provincial Park, formally established in 1962, is located in the valley of the Battle River, 40 km northeast of Stettler. Located in the Aspen Parkland, it has a wide variety of relatively undisturbed vegetation types ranging from open grasslands through shrublands (buckbrush, silver willow, rose) to deciduous (aspen and balsam poplar), mixed wood and coniferous (white spruce) communities. It also has some badland topography. The Park has an interesting assortment of species making up the fauna and flora as it contains coniferous foothills/boreal elements on north-facing slopes, prairie elements on the escarpment and at various places lower down, as well as riverine forest elements near the Battle River. The badland terrain and alkali flats with Opuntia fragilis are also of interest. Map of Big Knife Provincial Park. An ecological survey, with a listing of the local flora and fauna, was carried out by Ebel & Finkelman (1973). The next study was that of an 11 July 1993 reconnaisance by Bird who studied the plants (1993) and Lloyd Lohr (1993) who made notes on the birds and mammals.

  • Lepidoptera: Sphingidae
    ACTA AMAZONICA http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1809-4392201704721 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Diversity patterns of hawkmoths (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) in the canopy of an ombrophilous forest in the central Amazon, Brazil Gilcélia Melo LOURIDO1*, Catarina da Silva MOTTA†, Márlon Breno GRAÇA1, José Albertino RAFAEL1 1 Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia (INPA), Coordenação de Biodiversidade (COBIO), Manaus, Amazonas, Brasil † In memoriam * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT Sphingidae attracted to light were systematically collected in an Amazonian forest canopy. Sampling occurred at a height of 34 m in an upland primary rainforest plateau in the Cueiras River basin, located within the Experimental Station of Tropical Silviculture, Manaus municipality, Amazonas, Brazil. The hawkmoths were collected using a vertical white sheet illuminated by a 250 W mixed mercury light and a 20 W black-light (BLB) fluorescent tube. Monthly collections were carried out from January to December 2004, during three nights of lunar transition from third quarter moon to new moon between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. We sampled 1748 specimens, represented by 1485 males and 263 females, belonging to 52 species and 21 genera. Xylophanes comprised the highest number of species (seven), followed by Erinnyis, with six species. The most abundant species were Pseudosphinx tetrio (169 specimens), Pachylia darceta (162), Erinnyis ello ello (154), Isognathus excelsior (151) and Callionima parce (139). The species accumulation curve showed that the species richness tended to stabilize by the eighth month. We also observed that species composition altered significantly throughout the night period. All presented hawkmoth records are new for the canopy in the central Amazon.
