Dr. JONH DOUGLAS LYNCH ________________________________________________ Tesis aprobada como requisito parcial para obtar al grado de Doctor en Ciencias Biologicas- Sistemática. En el programa de Biologia de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia. Bogotá, 23 de noviembre de 2016 A mis hijos…Carlos Alejandro, Emmanuel y Samara. “Dado que en principio, una matriz de datos que contiene caracteres para diferentes minerales se puede analizar con un programa, para obtener un dendrograma, la aplicación de técnicas cladísticas por sí sola, no crea un análisis filogenético”. Wägele, 2004 “Dios en su infinita misericordia nos permite tomar desiciones, pero esas desiciones pueden ser adecuadas o no según los criterios humanos, sin embargo cada decisión tiene sus efectos, está en nuestras manos tomar las mejores desiciones para que las consecuencias sean en nuestro propio beneficio, caso contrario pagaremos por nuestros errores” A Dios gracias por permitirnos tomar nuestras propias desiciones aunque a veces no sean las mejores. AGRADECIMIENTOS En primer lugar, me gustaría agradecer a mi profesor-director Dr. John Douglas Lynch por sus grandes enseñanzas y su tiempo dedicado que permitieron y apoyaron mi formación personal e intelectual además de sus críticas constructivas sobre sistemática filogenética.

RESUMEN El género Dalla fue establecido por Mabille en 1904, con 47 especies, de las cuales Lyndsy, 1921 seleccionó a Cyclopides eryonas Hewitson, 1877 como especie tipo. Antes, Felder & Felder, (1867) establecieron el género Eumesia con sólo una especie, E. semiargentea como tipo. Sin embargo, Evans (1955) notó que los dos nombres genéricos eran sinónimos y rechazo a Eumesia debido a que el holotipo de E. semiargentea es un espécimen de un hespérido al que se le adjunto la cabeza de un satírino (Steinhauser, 1991). Este género se distribuye en el neotrópico con mayor concentración de especies en las regiones andinas. Actualmente cuenta con 96 especies descritas y ha sido subdivido en 7 grupos de especies con base en caracteres del ala (Evans, 1955). En esta investigación se desarrolló un análisis filogenético para el género Dalla (Hesperiidae: Heteropterinae), con base principalmente en caracteres morfológicos y se evalua la monofilia del grupo. Adicionalmente se hace enfasis en el grupo Dalla cypselus Evans (1955), donde se estudian las relaciones y se pone a prueba su monofilia, debido a ser el grupo de especies mas grande propuesto por Evans (1955), presentar amplia distribución en el neotropico y algunas especies son diciles de identificar e incluso varias especies están aun sin nombrar. Por ultimo se realiza una aproximación filogenética para 10 especies del género con datos morfológicos y moleculares. Los cladogramas resultantes muestran algunas agrupaciones poco soportadas por sinapomorfias. La monofilia del grupo Dalla cypselus Evans (1955), es soportada por caracteres de los órganos genitales y son la base para continuar futuros estudios en el grupo. Con base en el estudio morfológico de las estructuras de los órganos genitales se propone un nuevo reagrupamiento de las especies para el grupo denominado “cypselus” y se exploran las relaciones, mediante un análisis filogenético. Se describe una nueva especie y se propone cambiar el estatus de dos subespecie a especie con base en los resultados de la revisión taxonómica, datos de las colecciones biológicas y los resultados de la filogenia. Palabras clave: Filogenia, Género Dalla, Hesperiidae, Heteropterinae. ABSTRACT The Dalla genus was established by Mabille in 1904, with 47 species, of which Lyndsy, 1921 selected Cyclopides eryonas Hewitson, 1877 as species type. Before, Felder and Felder, 1867 established Eumesia with genus with only a species, E. semiargentea as species type. Nevertheless, Evans (1955) noticed that both generic names were synonymous and I reject Eumesia due to the fact that the holotipo of E. semiargentea plated is a specimen of a skypper to which I attach the head of a satyrini (Steinhauser, 1991). This genus is distributed in the neotrópico by major concentration of species in the Andean regions. It possesses 96 described species and has been I subdivide in 7 groups of species with base in characters of the wing (Evans, 1955). In this investigation an phylogenetic analysis was developed for the Dalla genus (Hesperiidae: Heteropterinae), with base principally on morphologic characters and the monophyly of the group is evaluated.

  • The Effect of Anthropogenic Habitat Modification on Insect- Mediated Ecosystem Services
    THE EFFECT OF ANTHROPOGENIC HABITAT MODIFICATION ON INSECT- MEDIATED ECOSYSTEM SERVICES Audrey Maran A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2020 Committee: Shannon Pelini, Advisor Nathan Hensley Graduate Faculty Representative Kevin McCluney Karen Root Michael Weintraub © 2020 Audrey Maran All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Shannon Pelini, Advisor Human activity and land use negatively affect many arthropods that provide important ecosystem services. Agricultural land and cities are both common types of human-modified habitat that often have decreased arthropod richness and diversity, due in part to loss of habitat quantity, habitat complexity (i.e. habitat types available), and structural complexity (i.e. habitat density, shape, or height). This dissertation focuses on gaps in understanding of t he relationship between habitat complexity and arthropod-mediated ecosystem services in human-modified environments. In agricultural fields, we examined the response of ground arthropods, microbial activity, and nutrient pools to applications of a nutrient source (labile detritus: mayfly carcasses) and/or habitat structure (recalcitrant detritus: corn stover) over a 7-week period. In urban prairies, we examined the relationship between arthropod predators and complexity, and the impact that urban features have on that relationship at multiple scales. Throughout the work presented in this dissertation, we found that known patterns and relationships were disrupted or dampened in human-modified habitats. Though labile detritus recruited ground arthropods to agricultural fields, they did not stimulate nutrient cycling as they do in less-modified systems. The labile detritus provided nutrients but had little impact on microbial activity.

Since its unin- tentional arrival to the United States in 1989 and to Mexican islands in 2006, it has become a serious threat to the diversity of both wild and cultivated species of Opuntia Mill. in North America. The native ecological host range of C. cactorum has not been directly ascertained and host acceptance is unclear. Taxonomic nomenclature of Opuntia spp. has been confus- ing, contradictory, and rapidly changing, leading to inaccurate conclusions about host plant use by C. cactorum in its native South American range. This study was conducted to bet- ter understand the biology and ecology of C. cactorum in Argentina by evaluating, under laboratory conditions, the insects’ performance (survivorship, development time, potential fecundity) on 8 Opuntia spp. occurring in Argentina. Feeding trials were conducted on 5 Opuntia spp. native to Argentina and 3 Opuntia spp. native to Mexico. Cactoblastis cac- torum larvae failed to feed on 2 native Opuntia spp., and had their greatest performance on the North American O.

  • Book Review, of Systematics of Western North American Butterflies
    (NEW Dec. 3, PAPILIO SERIES) ~19 2008 CORRECTIONS/REVIEWS OF 58 NORTH AMERICAN BUTTERFLY BOOKS Dr. James A. Scott, 60 Estes Street, Lakewood, Colorado 80226-1254 Abstract. Corrections are given for 58 North American butterfly books. Most of these books are recent. Misidentified figures mostly of adults, erroneous hostplants, and other mistakes are corrected in each book. Suggestions are made to improve future butterfly books. Identifications of figured specimens in Holland's 1931 & 1898 Butterfly Book & 1915 Butterfly Guide are corrected, and their type status clarified, and corrections are made to F. M. Brown's series of papers on Edwards; types (many figured by Holland), because some of Holland's 75 lectotype designations override lectotype specimens that were designated later, and several dozen Holland lectotype designations are added to the J. Pelham Catalogue. Type locality designations are corrected/defined here (some made by Brown, most by others), for numerous names: aenus, artonis, balder, bremnerii, brettoides, brucei (Oeneis), caespitatis, cahmus, callina, carus, colon, colorado, coolinensis, comus, conquista, dacotah, damei, dumeti, edwardsii (Oarisma), elada, epixanthe, eunus, fulvia, furcae, garita, hermodur, kootenai, lagus, mejicanus, mormo, mormonia, nilus, nympha, oreas, oslari, philetas, phylace, pratincola, rhena, saga, scudderi, simius, taxiles, uhleri. Five first reviser actions are made (albihalos=austinorum, davenporti=pratti, latalinea=subaridum, maritima=texana [Cercyonis], ricei=calneva). The name c-argenteum is designated nomen oblitum, faunus a nomen protectum. Three taxa are demonstrated to be invalid nomina nuda (blackmorei, sulfuris, svilhae), and another nomen nudum ( damei) is added to catalogues as a "schizophrenic taxon" in order to preserve stability. Problems caused by old scientific names and the time wasted on them are discussed.
