[email protected] Palabras Clave: Guerrero, mariposas diurnas, Papilionoidea, riqueza, selva baja caducifolia. Introducción El estado de Guerrero presenta una amplia diversidad topográfica y multiplicidad de ecosistemas en los que se desarrollan extensos bosques templados y amplias zonas con vegetación tropical. Esta diversidad de condiciones propicia la presencia de un número alto de especies en su territorio (Flores-Villela y Gerez, 1994; Vargas-Fernández et al., 1992), de tal forma que Guerrero representa una de las entidades con mayor riqueza de Papilionoidea en nuestro país. De acuerdo con Luis et al. (2000), ocupa el quinto lugar después de Chiapas, Veracruz, Jalisco y Oaxaca. Entre los trabajos más recientes sobre la lepidopterofauna del Estado destacan los realizados por Vargas-Fernández et al. (1992), Luis y Llorente (1993) y Llorente et al. (2006). El Tepehuaje se ubica aproximadamente a 8 km al sureste de Tierra Colorada, muy próximo a la localidad del mismo nombre, entre las coordenadas 99º 29’ N y 99º 30’ W, a 400 m de altitud y en un área de selva baja caducifolia (Fig. 1). Figura 1. Localización del área de estudio. 1020 Materiales y Método Se efectuaron 17 salidas a campo al área de estudio, desde septiembre de 2005 hasta noviembre de 2007. Los ejemplares fueron capturados con redes aéreas y trampas cebadas con fermento de frutas. La determinación taxonómica de los 2074 ejemplares obtenidos se llevó a cabo por comparación con literatura especializada y utilizando como referencia la Colección Lepidopterológica de la FES Zaragoza, UNAM, en la cual fueron depositados. Resultados y Discusión A continuación se presenta la lista de 120 especies de Papilionoidea obtenida para la localidad de El Tepehuaje, Guerrero; el orden los taxones y la nomenclatura siguen la propuesta de Llorente et al.

Heliconius erato cruentus Lamas, 1998 En el Tepehuaje la mayoría de las especies fueron ninfálidos (72), y casi en la misma proporción piéridos (17), papiliónidos (12), licénidos (10) y riodínidos (9 especies); este patrón es distinto al encontrado en la mayor parte del país, incluso en áreas de selva baja caducifolia (Fig. 2). Los resultados sugieren que particularmente debe intensificarse la búsqueda de licénidos y riodínidos puesto que en otros sitios con características vegetacionales similares, ambas familias constituyen una parte importante de la lepidopterofauna (Luna-Reyes, 2007). Papilionidae Pieridae Lycaenidae Riodinidae Nymphalidae Figura 2. Papilionoidea de la localidad de El Tepehuaje, Guerrero. De acuerdo con el Apéndice General de Papilionoidea (Llorente et al., 2006), once son nuevos registros para Guerrero: Calephelis perditalis perditalis, Calephelis arizonensis, Melanis cephise acroleuca, Megisto rubricata anabelae, Taygetis mermeria excavata, Archaeoprepona demophoon gulina, Epiphile adrasta adrasta, Anartia fatima fatima, Chlosyne cyneas cyneas, Chlosyne lacinia lacinia y Eunica malvina almae. Así, con este trabajo la riqueza de Papilionoidea para el Estado se incrementa a 511 especies. Por otro lado, la revisión de trabajos sobre Papilionoidea del estado de Guerrero (Vargas- Fernández et al. 1992; Luis y Llorente, 1993; Luna-León et al., 2003a; Luna-León et al., 2003b; Llorente et al,. 2006 y Luna-León et al., 2007) indica que la mayor parte de los papilionoideos de El Tepehuaje (77 especies) se distribuye únicamente en zonas con vegetación tropical de selva baja subcaducifolia y caducifolia; y que 19 de ellas se citaron exclusivamente para ésta última. Este análisis también mostró que 16 especies sólo han sido registradas en el área de estudio: Pyrisitia lisa centralis, Calephelis fulmen, Calephelis arizonensis, Apodemia walkeri, Cissia 1024 pompilia, Megisto rubricata

RESUMEN La riqueza biológica de Mesoamérica es enorme. Dentro de esta gran área geográfi ca se encuentran algunos de los ecosistemas más diversos del planeta (selvas tropicales), así como varios de los principales centros de endemismo en el mundo (bosques nublados). Países como Guatemala, en esta gran área biogeográfi ca, tiene grandes zonas de bosque húmedo tropical y bosque mesófi lo, por esta razón es muy importante para analizar la diversidad en la región. Lamentablemente, la fauna de mariposas de Guatemala es poco conocida y por lo tanto, es necesario llevar a cabo un estudio y análisis de la composición y la diversidad de las mariposas (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) en Guatemala.

  • NCWF Pollinator Guide
    North Carolina Wildlife Federation 2020 North Carolina Pollinator Identification Guide North Carolina Wildlife Federation www.ncwf.org 1 North Carolina Wildlife Federation 2020 Table of Contents: Pollinator ID Guide 1. Introduction 2. Bees, Ants, and Wasps a. NC Families of Bees ​ ​ 3. Butterflies and Moths a. Main Families of Butterflies ​ ​ 4. Beetles a. Flower Beetle 5. Flies a. Syrphid Flies 6. Birds a. Ruby-Throated Hummingbird Introduction: The purpose of this pollinator identification guide is to educate wildlife stewards on common pollinators that are endemic to North Carolina. Pollinators are vastly important to the health of our ecosystems and to the production of our food. With growing concern over the loss of viable habitat for our pollinators, NCWF is committed to the education on the importance of pollinator gardens and gardening for wildlife. We hope that this pollinator identification guide will encourage viewers to learn more about the pollinators that can be found in their homes and neighborhoods as well as their important ecological services. This guide also includes a few examples of endangered or threatened pollinator species to help emphasize the need to increase pollinator habitat. Endangered species often rely on specific conditions in an environment in order to survive, but climate change and urban sprawl have reduced viable habitat by shifting average temperatures of an ecosystem, reducing numbers of available host plants, and polluting natural areas. The ability to identify pollinators in our backyards strengthens human-wildlife connections in our communities and helps spread awareness for habitat conservation. Education and individual actions are key to the preservation of these disappearing species.

Las larvas son gusanos de color oscuro, que presentan una glandula eversible en forma de lengua de serpiente, en el primer segmento toracico, que sirve como mecanismo de defensa contra enemigos naturales. Muchas larvas son mimeticos de excrementos de pajaros, otras presentan sobre el torax un par de ojos pintados que los hace parecer serpientes. Las plantas hospederas son principalmente Rutaceae, Piperaceae, Annonaceae, Aristolochiaceae y Apiaceae. La clasificación usada aqui esta basada en Nijhout (1991), Tyler, Brown & Wilson (1994) y actualizada con Lamas (2004). La familia Papilionidae se divide en tres subfamilias, los Baroniinae y Paranassinae que no ocurren en Nicaragua y los Papilioninae. Los Papilioninae estan representados en Nicaragua por 3 tribus : Graphiini, Troidini y Papilionini. Se presentan en este trabajo 28 especies de Papilionidae de Nicaragua y 87 especies exóticas. La especie Heraclides erostratus (WESTWOOD) constituye un nuevo reporte para la fauna de Nicaragua.

  • Butterflies of the State of Colima, Mexico
    Jm".nal of the Lepidopterists' Society 52(1 ), 1998, 40-72 BUTIERFLIES OF THE STATE OF COLIMA, MEXICO ANDRE W D, WARREN 99.51 East Ida Place, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80ll1, USA AND ISABEL VARGAS F" ARMANDO LUIS M" AND JORGE LLORENTE B. Museo de Zoologia, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Nacional Aut6noma de Mexico. Apdo. Postal 70-399, Mexico 04.510 D.F., MEXICO ABSTRACT. A survey of the butte rfli es of Colima, Mexico is presc nted , in which .543 species from 280 genera and 22 subfamilies of Papilionoidea and Hesperioidea are listed. Ove r 100 species are reported from Colima for the first time. This list was c reated by re­ viewing the past Lepidoptera literature, the major collections in the United States and Mexico with Mexican material, as well as by fieldwork at 10 sites carried o ut by the au­ thors. For each species, capture localities, adult Bight dates, and references for the data are provided. An analysis of our knowledge of Colima's butterBy Lmna is presented, and comparisons with equivalent faunal works on Jalisco and Michoacan are made . About 78% of the species known from Colima a re also known from Michoac!in, while about 88% of the species reported from Colima are also known from Jalisco. There are 31 species that have been reported from Colima but not fram Michoacan or Jalisco, and for most of these, we have no explanation for such an exclusive distribution, except the need for more field­ work in all three states. Only o ne species, Zohera alhopunctata, appears to be endemic to Colima.

  • The Papilionidae (Lepidoptera): Co-Evolution with the Angiosperms

The Papilionidae (Lepidoptera): co- evolution with the Angiosperms. — Phyton (Austria) 23 (1): 117—126, 2 fi- gures. — English with German summary. The Papilionidae appears to have co-evolved with two lines of Angiosperms, the one rooted in the Magnoliales or rather their ancestors, the other in the Rosales-Myrtales or their ancestors. The Papilionini (Graphiini) is especially interesting in being adapted to a lineage including the Magnoliales, Rutales, Umbellales and Asterales, whose existence is clear on phytochemical and morpho- logical grounds. It is stressed that morphological differentiation does not go necessarily hand in hand with adaptive co-evolution: whereas the whole of the Troidini remained adapted to the Aristolochiaceae, the single genus Papilio (Papilionini) "learned" to feed on a succession of related families culminating in the Gompositae, and still remained unchanged at even the genus level.

  • Swallowtails of the World
    Swallowtails of the World Papilio natewa A pictorial review of the Papilionidae by Richard I Vane-Wright & N. Mark Collins Swallowtails are insects – invertebrate animals with three pairs of jointed legs Papilio (Princeps) demoleus Swallowtails belong to the Lepidoptera – insects that undergo complete metamorphosis and have four broad wings covered in scales There are: • About 185,000 named species of Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) • About 18,500 species of Papilionoidea (butterflies and skippers) divided between seven families • Almost 600 species in the family There are three swallowtail subfamilies: Papilionidae • Baroniinae: one species • Parnassiinae: 65+ species • Papilioninae: 500++ species Some characteristics of swallowtails The osmeterium is the swallowtail caterpillar’s defensive scent-gland – a unique structure found in all species for which the larvae are known The chrysalis is attached by a silk base-pad – the cremaster, and a silk girdle (except Parnassius) Wing venation: Forewing vein 2A is separate The subfamily Baroniinae includes just a single species from Mexico – Baronia brevicornis The Parnassiinae – only found in the northern hemisphere – are usually divided among seven genera Archon apollinus – one of two species of the genus Archon Hypermnestra helios – the only species in the genus Fifty or more species belong to the genus Parnassius – this is Parnasssius eversmanni, placed by some specialists in subgenus Driopa, one of about six subgroups often recognised Parnassius (Parnassius) apollo – the famous Apollo Butterfly, pictured here from the Val d'Aosta, Italy Bhutanitis lidderdalii – one of the four remarkable species belonging to this genus Luehdorfia japonica– one of four species in the genus Sericinus montela – the only species of this graceful swallowtail genus Zerynthia rumina – one of seven species in this colourful parnassiine genus The majority of swallowtails belong This is to the third major subgroup – the Eurytides Papilioninae.
