  • Project Update: June 2013 the Monte Iberia Plateau at The
    Project Update: June 2013 The Monte Iberia plateau at the Alejandro de Humboldt National Park (AHNP) was visited in April and June of 2013. A total of 152 butterflies and moths grouped in 22 families were recorded. In total, 31 species of butterflies belonging to five families were observed, all but two new records to area (see list below). Six species and 12 subspecies are Cuban endemics, including five endemics restricted to the Nipe-Sagua- Baracoa. In total, 108 species of moths belonging to 17 families were registered, including 25 endemic species of which five inhabit exclusively the NSB Mountains (see list below). In total, 52 butterflies and endemic moth species were photographed to be included in a guide of butterflies and endemic moths inhabiting Monte Iberia. Vegetation types sampled were the evergreen forests, rainforest, and charrascals (scrub on serpentine soil) at both north and southern slopes of Monte Iberia plateau Sixteen butterfly species were observed in transects. Park authorities were contacted in preparation on a workshop to capacitate park staff. Butterfly and moth species recorded at different vegetation types of Monte Iberia plateau in April and June of 2013.

  • Acoustic Communication in the Nocturnal Lepidoptera
    Chapter 6 Acoustic Communication in the Nocturnal Lepidoptera Michael D. Greenfield Abstract Pair formation in moths typically involves pheromones, but some pyra- loid and noctuoid species use sound in mating communication. The signals are generally ultrasound, broadcast by males, and function in courtship. Long-range advertisement songs also occur which exhibit high convergence with commu- nication in other acoustic species such as orthopterans and anurans. Tympanal hearing with sensitivity to ultrasound in the context of bat avoidance behavior is widespread in the Lepidoptera, and phylogenetic inference indicates that such perception preceded the evolution of song. This sequence suggests that male song originated via the sensory bias mechanism, but the trajectory by which ances- tral defensive behavior in females—negative responses to bat echolocation sig- nals—may have evolved toward positive responses to male song remains unclear. Analyses of various species offer some insight to this improbable transition, and to the general process by which signals may evolve via the sensory bias mechanism. 6.1 Introduction The acoustic world of Lepidoptera remained for humans largely unknown, and this for good reason: It takes place mostly in the middle- to high-ultrasound fre- quency range, well beyond our sensitivity range. Thus, the discovery and detailed study of acoustically communicating moths came about only with the use of electronic instruments sensitive to these sound frequencies. Such equipment was invented following the 1930s, and instruments that could be readily applied in the field were only available since the 1980s. But the application of such equipment M. D.

    Express PRA for Earias insulana – Interception – Prepared by: Julius Kuehn-Institute, Institute for National and International Plant Health; Dr. Anne Wilstermann on: 31-08-2018. (translated by Elke Vogt-Arndt) Initiation: Interception of Okra fruits from Egypt by the Plant Protection Service of the Federal State Brandenburg Express-PRA Earias insulana Phytosanitary risk for Germany high medium low Phytosanitary risk for high medium low EU-Member States Certainty of assessment high medium low Conclusion The Egyptian bollworm Earias insulana is endemic in Africa and the Mediterranean region and does not occur in Germany. It is, however already established in Armenia, Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Sicily, Spain, the Balearic and the Canary Islands. So far, it is listed neither in the Annexes of the Directive 2000/29/EC nor by EPPO. E. insulana infests mallow plants, considerable damage mainly is known on Gossypium hirsutum and Abelmoschus esculentus. Due to unsuitable climatic conditions, the pest is not able to establish outdoors in Germany. An establishment in protected cultivation with permanent host availability is assumed. An establishment in Southern European Member States has already taken place. The species will distribute naturally under suitable climatic conditions and with suitable host plants. Due to its low damage potential, the unsuitable climatic conditions and the low host plant availability E. insulana does not present any risk for Germany. The species did already establish in EU-Member States with suitable climate. Thus, Earias insulana is not classified as a quarantine pest and § 4a of the Plant Inspection Order does not apply. Preconditions for an Express- Could be a pest, is not listed and so far, did not establish in PRA fulfilled? the area covered by the reporting Plant Protection Service.

  • CHECKLIST of WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea)
    WISCONSIN ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY SPECIAL PUBLICATION No. 6 JUNE 2018 CHECKLIST OF WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea) Leslie A. Ferge,1 George J. Balogh2 and Kyle E. Johnson3 ABSTRACT A total of 1284 species representing the thirteen families comprising the present checklist have been documented in Wisconsin, including 293 species of Geometridae, 252 species of Erebidae and 584 species of Noctuidae. Distributions are summarized using the six major natural divisions of Wisconsin; adult flight periods and statuses within the state are also reported. Examples of Wisconsin’s diverse native habitat types in each of the natural divisions have been systematically inventoried, and species associated with specialized habitats such as peatland, prairie, barrens and dunes are listed. INTRODUCTION This list is an updated version of the Wisconsin moth checklist by Ferge & Balogh (2000). A considerable amount of new information from has been accumulated in the 18 years since that initial publication. Over sixty species have been added, bringing the total to 1284 in the thirteen families comprising this checklist. These families are estimated to comprise approximately one-half of the state’s total moth fauna. Historical records of Wisconsin moths are relatively meager. Checklists including Wisconsin moths were compiled by Hoy (1883), Rauterberg (1900), Fernekes (1906) and Muttkowski (1907). Hoy's list was restricted to Racine County, the others to Milwaukee County. Records from these publications are of historical interest, but unfortunately few verifiable voucher specimens exist. Unverifiable identifications and minimal label data associated with older museum specimens limit the usefulness of this information. Covell (1970) compiled records of 222 Geometridae species, based on his examination of specimens representing at least 30 counties.

Through this study, a total of 212 species was observed from the study area which represented 212 species from 29 families. Most of the moth species were abundance in July to August. Moths are the most vulnerable organism, with slight environmental changes. Erebidae, Crambidae and Geometridae are the most abundant families throughout the year. The Coonoor Forestdale area was showed a number of new records and seems to supporting an interesting the monotypic moth species have been recorded.

The use of integrated pest management (IPM) tools is critical for effective pest management. Previous studies on Received: November 13, 2020 the subject have considered how farmers perceive the economic impact of insect pests on Accepted: December 23, 2020 cocoa. These studies however did not investigate farmers’ ability to identify pests, associ- ated damage symptoms and their implications for pest management. The current study, *Corresponding address: therefore, assessed farmers’ ability to correctly associate insect damage with the pest [email protected] species that caused it. A total of 600 farmers were interviewed in the Eastern, Ashanti, Western, Brong Ahafo and Central Regions of Ghana with a structured open and closed- ended questionnaire. Most farmers (>85%) were unable to correctly identify and associ- ate pests to their damage. The majority (>80%) of farmers also could not link the imma- ture stages of insect pests to their adult stages.
