CHESHIRE (VICE COUNTY 58) MOTH REPORT FOR 2018 Phtheochroa rugosana Kevin Peace Authors: Steve H. Hind and Steve W. Holmes Date: March 2019 Cheshire moth report 2018 Introduction As we wait for publication of the National Macro-moth Atlas, the recording of moths within Cheshire continues and during 2018 a number of species was recorded for the first time at regularly worked sites. Some of these were also new to their respective 10km squares, filling in a number of gaps within the atlas. With the recent inclusion of Micro-moths into the recording scheme, the interest in this once neglected group continues to grow, resulting in a significant number of new 10km square records. A list of all the 781 new species can be found in the Species new for their respective 10km squares in 2018 section towards the end of this report. Eight new species were added to the county list during 2018, Clover Case-bearer Coleophora alcyonipennella, Hoary Plume Platyptilia isodactylus, Grapholita lobarzewskii, Sitochroa palealis, Fletcher's or Pauper Pug Eupithecia egenaria, Toadflax Brocade Calophasia lunula, Webb's Wainscot Globia sparganii, and White-marked Cerastis leucographa. The best day was 26th June, with 289 species recorded, the fifth highest daily count on record. Work continued during the winter to add historical records from entomological journals and collections, which will enable us to compare our current data with that of the past. This work added two species to the county list following discovery of a specimen of the Potato Tuber Moth Phthorimaea operculella in Manchester Museum, which had been taken by Charles M Jones at Wallasey on 21st July 1961 and Teleiodes sequax, which was found in the collection of David J Poynton and caught at Prestbury on 18th July 1999. Light trapping was generally unproductive during early 2018 due to the cool wet weather. There was an exceptionally cold easterly airflow in early March, which brought strong winds and snow. Milder and wetter conditions returned, before another spell of cold easterlies mid-month. April was generally cool and unsettled, with the exception of a few hot days. May was drier and sunnier than normal, with spells of hot weather interspersed with cooler easterly winds and chilly nights. June was mainly dry and often sunny, with hardly a drop of rain all month. July was similarly hot, sunny and dry. Such conditions produced later than normal emergence dates for a number of species throughout May but others soon caught up and quickly advanced during the hot weather. This resulted in a very short season, as by mid-July, we were catching species which more typically fly in mid-August. Moths tend to frequently wander from their normal habits in such conditions and this was most obvious during the summer with the dispersal of Northern Spinach Eulithis populata, across the Cheshire Plain. Some common species, such as Setaceous Hebrew Character Xestia c-nigrum, produced large second broods and there were second broods of normally univoltine species, such as Heart & Dart Agrotis exclamationis and Dark Arches Apamea monoglypha, with the latter continuing to fly until the year end. Five second brood Pale- shouldered Brocade were also caught during the first half of August. Something normally confined to further south. Periods of warm southerlies from mid-October until mid-December extended the season for many species. It seemed that almost every day there came reports of “my latest ever” for this species or that. Resulting from this, the latest ever records for the county were reported as follows: Beautiful China-mark Nymphula nitidulata and Blue-bordered Carpet Plemyria rubiginata on 17th September, Prays ruficeps on 26th September, Phyllonorycter geniculella, Anania crocealis and Dwarf Cream Wave Idaea fuscovenosa on 3rd October, Dioryctria abietella on 4th October, Timothy Tortrix Aphelia paleana on 8th October, Peppered Moth Biston betularia 9th October, Grapholita janthinana and Common Footman Eilema lurideola on 10th October, Aethes smeathmanniana on 12th October, Teleiodes vulgella and Silky Wainscot Chilodes maritima 13th October (previous latest 25th August), Lesser Common Rustic Mesapamea didyma on 15th October, Holly Tortrix Rhopobota naevana on 19th October, Gypsonoma dealbana on 30th October, Swallow-tailed Moth Ourapteryx sambucaria on 4th November, Lunar Underwing Omphaloscelis lunosa and Orange Sallow Tiliacea citrago on 15th November and Shuttle-shaped Dart Agrotis puta on 16th November. P a g e 2 | 72 Cheshire moth report 2018 Only two scarce migrants were caught during this period; Vestal Rhodometra sacraria and Scarce Bordered Straw Helicoverpa armigera, although numbers of Dark Sword-grass Agrotis ipsilon and Turnip Moth Agrotis segetum were above average. Generally it was a poor year for migrant moths. We only had a single Rusty-dot Pearl Udea ferrugalis and there we no reports at all of Rush Veneer Nomophila noctuella. After 15 months of preparations, in December we published the “e-atlas” illustrating the known distributions of Cheshire’s moths, within the pages of “Cheshire Moth Atlas 1808-2017”. This undertaking would not have been possible without the support of the Tanyptera Trust based at Liverpool World Museum and in particular to Gary Hedges who sewed seeds in both our minds! The atlas, which we plan to update with 2018 records as soon as possible, can be found at the following site: http://www.northwestinvertebrates.org.uk/publications/moths-lepidoptera/ The table to the right shows the number of species and records in Cheshire over the past decade. The recording of moths continues on an upward trajectory in the county, with record numbers of both species and records achieved during 2018. Records of Micro- moths have more than doubled during this period and our knowledge of their county status is increasing each year. The county database now contains over 1,334,000 records. The map to the right shows the number of species recorded in each hectad (10km x 10km square) during 2018 to illustrate the recording coverage across the county. We managed to increase the number of species recorded in 33 hectads during the year, most significantly in SJ27 (Parkgate) and SJ89 (Sale), thanks to the work of new resident recorders. However, numbers were down in 15 hectads, due in a few cases to regular recorders either not trapping during the year, or a lack of casual visits. Most moth trapping continues to be carried out in recorders gardens and although we currently have a good spread of recorders across the county, there remain hectads without a resident trapper. Knowledge on the status of our garden moths is increasing each year but trapping away from our gardens is still very limited, so visits into the wider countryside is likely to produce the most significant rewards. P a g e 3 | 72 Cheshire moth report 2018 Time and effort dictate that this report cannot be a complete analysis of the years’ records; it does however itemise all micro-moth species that were recorded five or fewer times during the year as well as all macro-moth species recorded eight times or fewer.

    2013 Draft Mazama Pocket Gopher Status Update and Recovery Plan

    DRAFT Mazama Pocket Gopher Status Update and Recovery Plan Derek W. Stinson Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Wildlife Program 600 Capitol Way N Olympia, Washington January 2013 In 1990, the Washington Wildlife Commission adopted procedures for listing and de-listing species as endangered, threatened, or sensitive and for writing recovery and management plans for listed species (WAC 232-12-297, Appendix A). The procedures, developed by a group of citizens, interest groups, and state and federal agencies, require preparation of recovery plans for species listed as threatened or endangered. Recovery, as defined by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, is the process by which the decline of an endangered or threatened species is arrested or reversed, and threats to its survival are neutralized, so that its long-term survival in nature can be ensured. This is the Draft Washington State Status Update and Recovery Plan for the Mazama Pocket Gopher. It summarizes what is known of the historical and current distribution and abundance of the Mazama pocket gopher in Washington and describes factors affecting known populations and its habitat. It prescribes strategies to recover the species, such as protecting populations and existing habitat, evaluating and restoring habitat, and initiating research and cooperative programs. Target population objectives and other criteria for down-listing to state Sensitive are identified. As part of the State’s listing and recovery procedures, the draft recovery plan is available for a 90-day public comment period.

  • The Distribution and Habitat Preferences of Bats in a Temperate Urban Landscape

    The Distribution and Habitat Preferences of Bats in a Temperate Urban Landscape

    The distribution and habitat preferences of bats in a temperate urban landscape Paul Lintott July 2015 Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Biological & Environmental Sciences, School of Natural Sciences The University of Stirling Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis has been composed by myself and that it embodies the results of my own research. Where appropriate, I have acknowledged the nature and extent of work carried out in collaboration with others. ………………………………………………………………………….. Paul Lintott Summary Urbanisation is a key driver in the loss, fragmentation and modification of natural habitats resulting in the global loss of biodiversity. As the human population, and consequently the rate of urbanisation, continues to increase exponentially it is important to understand how to sustain and enhance biodiversity within the built environment. Cities comprise a complex assortment of habitat types yet relatively little is known of how its composition and spatial configuration can influence species presence or foraging activities. It is therefore necessary to examine habitat use and biodiversity patterns at multiple spatial scales to fully understand how species are responding to the urban matrix. There are few other orders of animals that are as strongly associated with people as bats (Chiroptera); for some bat species human habitations provide roosts and adaptations of the environment provide food sources. However bat species richness generally declines with increasing urbanisation indicating that many species are not able to persist in highly urbanised areas. In this thesis, I show that the behaviour, habitat preferences, and distribution of bats are strongly influenced by the built environment at both a local and landscape scale.

    Parasitoids (Hymenoptera) of Leaf-Spinning Moths (Lepidoptera) Feeding on Vaccinium Uliginosum L

    © Entomologica Fennica. 25 February 2011 Parasitoids (Hymenoptera) of leaf-spinning moths (Lepidoptera) feeding on Vaccinium uliginosum L. along an ecological gradient in central European peat bogs Aurel I. Lozan, Karel Spitzer, Josef Jaro, Andrey Khalaim, Maria Concetta Rizzo, Emilio Guerrieri & Ale Bezdìk Lozan,A.I.,Spitzer,K.,Jaro,J.,Khalaim,A.,Rizzo,M.C.,Guerrieri,E.& Bezdìk, A. 2010: Parasitoids (Hymenoptera) of leaf-spinning moths (Lepidop- tera) feeding on Vaccinium uliginosum L. along an ecological gradient in central European peat bogs. Entomol. Fennica 21: 243253. Parasitoids of leaf-spinning Lepidoptera associated with two isolated central Eu- ropean peat bogs were investigated. Five families of parasitoid Hymenoptera (Braconidae, Ichneumonidae, Eulophidae, Pteromalidae and Encyrtidae) were recorded. Three categories were recognised: (1) primary parasitoids, (2) faculta- tive hyperparasitoids and (3) obligatory hyperparasitoids. Ten species of Braco- nidae, five species and seven marked morphospecies among Ichneumonidae, and three species of Chalcidoidea were identified. Despite of some niche-specific (but less host-specific) parasitoids, all these hymenopterans are likely to be gen- eralists and none of them were confirmed to be habitat and/or host specialists. Unlike their eurytopic (opportunistic tyrphoneutral) parasitoids, the Lepidoptera hosts associated with peat bogs are partially highly stenotopic (tyrphobionts and tyrphophiles). The occurrence of parasitoids compared to their potential hosts was structured along an ecological (mesoclimatic) gradient, so most parasitoids were recorded from margins while stenotopic (narrow habitat adaptation) moths were mostly distributed near the centre of the bog habitat.

  • Moths of Poole Harbour Species List

    Moths of Poole Harbour Species List

    Moths of Poole Harbour is a project of Birds of Poole Harbour Moths of Poole Harbour Species List Birds of Poole Harbour & Moths of Poole Harbour recording area The Moths of Poole Harbour Project The ‘Moths of Poole Harbour’ project (MoPH) was established in 2017 to gain knowledge of moth species occurring in Poole Harbour, Dorset, their distribution, abundance and to some extent, their habitat requirements. The study area uses the same boundaries as the Birds of Poole Harbour (BoPH) project. Abigail Gibbs and Chris Thain, previous Wardens on Brownsea Island for Dorset Wildlife Trust (DWT), were invited by BoPH to undertake a study of moths in the Poole Harbour recording area. This is an area of some 175 square kilometres stretching from Corfe Castle in the south to Canford Heath in the north of the conurbation and west as far as Wareham. 4 moth traps were purchased for the project; 3 Mercury Vapour (MV) Robinson traps with 50m extension cables and one Actinic, Ultra-violet (UV) portable Heath trap running from a rechargeable battery. This was the capability that was deployed on most of the ensuing 327 nights of trapping. Locations were selected using a number of criteria: Habitat, accessibility, existing knowledge (previously well-recorded sites were generally not included), potential for repeat visits, site security and potential for public engagement. Field work commenced from late July 2017 and continued until October. Generally, in the years 2018 – 2020 trapping field work began in March/ April and ran on until late October or early November, stopping at the first frost.

The following six species are treated: Agonopterix scopariella (Heinemann, 1870), A. conciliatella (Rebel, 1892), A. vendettella (Chrétien, 1908) (new to Madeira), A. perezi Walsingham, 1908, Depressaria marcella Rebel, 1901 (new to Madeira and the Azores), and D. halophilella Chrétien, 1908. The latter replaces Depressaria ultimella Stainton, 1849 in the list of Lepidoptera found in Madeira. Depressaria iliensis Rebel, 1936 is a synonym of Agonopterix vendettella (Chrétien, 1908) (syn. nov.). Depressaria halophilella is new to the Canary Islands. We provide brief notes on each of the species and give short diagnoses for correctly identifying them, and we discuss previous misidentifications of Madeiran Depressariinae. Key words Lepidoptera, Depressariinae, Madeira, Azores Islands Zusammenfassung Wir überprüfen und illustrieren die von Madeira und den Azoren bekannten Depressariinae. Folgende sechs Arten werden behandelt: Agonopterix scopariella (Heinemann, 1870), A. conciliatella (Rebel, 1892), A. vendettella (Chrétien, 1908) (neu für Madeira), A. perezi Walsingham, 1908, Depressaria marcella Rebel, 1901 (neu für Madeira und die Azoren), und D. halophilella Chrétien, 1908.
