PREFACE Biological resources include all organisms and their genetic characteristics. Conservation and utiliza- tion of these resources have the capacity to improve human life and to enhance the world. Therefore it is required that the practical and potential values of these organisms are conserved and used wisely. The first step towards this goal is to document our biological diversity and to investigate them in detail. Biological resources increase the competitiveness of a nation through their use as fundamental resources for making highly valued products, such as new lines of cultivar, materials, and drugs. Many countries in the world are responsible for preserving their biodiversity and using the sustainable ways. The Ministry of Environment (MOE) of Korea has established “CBD-CHM Korea” to share of infor- mation of biodiversity. Each nation in the world is investigating and clearing information of native species within its territory. The National Institute of Biological Resources (NIBR) of MOE has published the ‘Flora and Fauna of Korea’ since 2009 to manage biological resources in comprehensive ways and to enhance national compe- titiveness by building up the foundation for the sovereignty rights over biological resources. Professional research groups, consisting of professors and other taxonomic experts, have systematically examined 15,545 species of vascular plants, animals and other organisms over the past 10 years and have published their find- ings in 191 volumes in Korean and 196 volumes in English, and two volumes of monographs covering 216 species of invertebrates. This year, 21 volumes of the Flora and Fauna of Korea in both Korean and English versions including 704 species of vascular plants, invertebrates and insects are additionally published. The NIBR will continue to publish and research of flora and fauna of Korea that contribute conserva- tion and sustainable use of biological resources. Finally, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to authors who made efforts in writing the manuscripts of the Flora and Fauna of Korea.

Wenzel, Advisor Dr. Daniel Herms Dr. Hans Klompen _________________________________ Dr. Steven C. Passoa Advisor Graduate Program in Entomology ABSTRACT The phylogenetics, systematics, taxonomy, and biology of Gelechioidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera) are investigated. This superfamily is probably the second largest in all of Lepidoptera, and it remains one of the least well known. Taxonomy of Gelechioidea has been unstable historically, and definitions vary at the family and subfamily levels. In Chapters Two and Three, I review the taxonomy of Gelechioidea and characters that have been important, with attention to what characters or terms were used by different authors. I revise the coding of characters that are already in the literature, and provide new data as well. Chapter Four provides the first phylogenetic analysis of Gelechioidea to include molecular data. I combine novel DNA sequence data from Cytochrome oxidase I and II with morphological matrices for exemplar species. The results challenge current concepts of Gelechioidea, suggesting that traditional morphological characters that have united taxa may not be homologous structures and are in need of further investigation. Resolution of this problem will require more detailed analysis and more thorough characterization of certain lineages. To begin this task, I conduct in Chapter Five an in- depth study of morphological evolution, host-plant selection, and geographical distribution of a medium-sized genus Depressaria Haworth (Depressariinae), larvae of ii which generally feed on plants in the families Asteraceae and Apiaceae.

    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. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

The method allows a non-destructive visualization of amber inclu- sions without distracting particles or refl ections and even facilitates the examination of internal anatomical characters. Recent experiments on fossil wasps from various types of amber revealed a remarkable degree of variation regarding the conditions of the fossils. While many inclusions are just insect-shaped voids, others contain undefi ned particles, degenerated organs or even well preserved internal anatomical structures. Keywords: Synchrotron, X-rays, microtomography, amber inclusions, Hymenoptera Zusammenfassung: Synchrotron-basierte Röntgenmikrotomographie eignet sich hervorragend, um fossile Insekten in Bernstein zu untersuchen. Die Methode erlaubt die zerstörungsfreie Visu- alisierung von Bernsteininklusen, ohne dass störende Partikel oder Refl ektionen die Sicht auf das Objekt behindern, und ermöglicht sogar die Untersuchung innerer anatomischer Merkmale. Aktuelle Experimente an fossilen Wespen aus verschiedenen Bernsteinarten zeigten eine bemerkenswerte Variation hinsichtlich des Erhaltungszustands der Fossilien.

In recent (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) so far reported from the years, several new genera and species of Pteromalidae have Indian subcontinent is provided. Of the 96 genera, 84 been described from the forested tracts of southern Western with 185 identified species and 12 genera with Ghats, a biodiversity hotspot centre in India (Sureshan, 1999a,b; unidentified species are listed. 2000a,b; 2001a,b,c; Sureshan & Narendran, 1995a,b; 1998; Narendran & Mini, 1999, etc.) and from other regions in India. Keywords Accordingly an updated checklist of the pteromalid fauna of the Indian subcontinent is presented here. It includes Chalcidoidea, checklist, distribution, habitat, host altogether 96 genera, 84 of them with 185 identified species and data, hymenoptera, Indian Subcontinent, locality, 12 genera with unidentified species. In the present work, the pteromalidae, synonymy, classification of the family given by Boucek (1988) is followed.
