McQuillan MCQUILLAN, P.B., 1992 (31:x): A checklist of the Tasmanian tortricid moths (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) and their host-plant relationships. Pap. Proc. R. Soc. Tasm. 126: 77-89. https://doi.org/10.26749/rstpp.126.77 Plant Protection Branch, Department of Primary Industry, GPO Box 192B, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 700 I. An annotated checklist of 165 described species of Tasmanian Tortricidae is presented. There is a single endemic genus, the monobasic Symphygas, and the genera Coeloptera, lsotenes, Neohermenias and Tracholena are recorded for the first time. At least 60 species (i.e. about one-third ofthe fauna) are endemic to Tasmania. The majority of species belong to the tortricine tribesArchipini (66 species) and Epitymbiini (49 species) while only 26 native species ofOlethrentinae are recorded. Two species are introduced from Europe. The plant familiesAsteraceae and Myrtaceae are pre-eminent as foodplanrs. New foodplants are recorded for a number of species and the degree of monophagy is shown to be high. Foodplants are now known for about one-third of the fauna. Key Words: Lepidoptera, Tortricidae, checklist, Tasmania, foodplants.

The native resident fauna of these islands consists of 42 species of which 21 (50%) are endemic, in 27 genera, of which 3 (11%) are endemic, in 12 families. The endemic fauna is characterised by brachyptery (66%), body size under 10 mm (72%) and concealed, or strictly ground- dwelling larval life. All species can be related to mainland forms; there is a distinctive pre-Pleistocene element as well as some instances of possible Pleistocene introductions, as suggested by the presence of pairs of species, one member of which is endemic but fully winged. A graph and tables are given showing the composition of the fauna, its distribution, habits, and presumed derivations. Host plants or host niches are discussed. An additional 7 species are considered to be non-resident waifs. The taxonomic part includes keys to families (applicable only to the subantarctic fauna), and to genera and species.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect.

Thus, both in terms of quantities produced and the value of its products, the vine constitutes a particularly important cultivation. THE HOST PLANT AND ITS CULTIVATION The original area of distribution of the genus Vitis was broken up by the separation of the continents; although numerous species developed, Vitis vinifera has been cultivated from the beginning for its fruit and wine producing qualities (43, 75, 184). This cultivation commenced in Transcaucasia about 6000 B.C. Subsequent human migration spread its cultivation, at firstaround the Mediterranean coast; the Roman conquest led to the plant's progressive establishment in Europe, almost to its present extent. Much later, the WesternEuropeans planted the grape vine wherever cultiva­ tion was possible, i.e. throughout the temperate and warm temperate regions of the by NORTH CAROLINA STATE UNIVERSITY on 02/01/10.

It is a great pleasure to present this report of the research activities of the Division of Health Sciences at the University of Otago for 2009-2010. The Division has an enviable reputation for research excellence and innovation and the achievements reported here reflect this. Our research helps to save lives and reduce suffering, and addresses health inequalities in New Zealand and around the world. The Division has had another two very successful years, as measured by the award of competitive research grants, by publications in highly esteemed journals, and by awards for distinction in research. Our researchers secured over $136 million in external research grants in 2009 and 2010 – a considerable achievement in what has become an increasingly competitive funding environment. The number of research outputs has continued to increase annually with many articles appearing in the world’s most prestigious journals.
