Lobesia (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae) from Korea, with Description of a New Species The LepidopterologicalSocietyLepidopterological Society of Japan nyLwh 1),oA to Ga 43 (1)i 75-82, March 1992 Notes on the genus Lobesia (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae) from Korea, with description of a new species Yang-Seop BAEr) and Kyu-Tek PARK2) ")Entomological Laboratory, College of Agriculture, University ef Osaka Prefecture, Sakai, Osaka, 591 Japan2)College of Agriculture, Kttngweon National University, Chunchcon, 200-701 Korea Abstract The Korean species of the genus Lobesia Guenee, 1845, are revised. One new species, L. PyiZft)rinis n. sp., is described ancl three species, L. viTulenta Bae & Komai, L. .vasetclai Bae & Kornai and L. aeogopa Meyrick. are newly recorded from Korea. Key words Lepidoptera, Tortricidae, Olethreutinae, Lobesia, Korea, taxonomy. "Microlepidoptera In the of Korea", Park (1983a) recorded two species of the genus Lobesia, i.e., L, coccophcrga Falkovitsh and L.pernzixlana Htibner (=reliqzftzna Hifbner) from Korea, Recently, Bae and Komai (1991) revised Japanese species of this genus and arranged them in two subgenera, i,e., Lobesia Guenee and Nbolobesia Bae & Komai. Generally･, the wing patterns of Lobesia are uniform and genitalic characters are requisite for reliable identification. In the male genitalia (Figs, 7-10), the number of the spine clusters of sacculus (Spci and Spc2), the shape of the cucullus and the aedeagus provide stable characters for identification. In the female genitalia (Figs,11-13), the structure of the sterigma is an important diagnostic character. Secondary sexual organs are well developed in male : a pair of ventral pouches on the 2nd abdominal sternite and the hair-pencil on the hind tibia. In the present paper we are going to record six species of the genus frorn Korea; one is new to science and three are newly recorded from Korea. External appearance and genitalia are figured if necessary, a short diagnosis and brief remarks are given on morphological differentia, biology and distribution, All the specimens recorded here, including type specimens, will be preserved in Center for Insect Systematics, Kangweon National University, Korea.

In spite of this, there does not exist a survey of its fauna — except a single contribution, by Lord Walsingham, in Moore's "Lepidoptera of Ceylon", already almost a hundred years old, and a number of small papers and stray descriptions of new species, in various journals. The authors of these papers were Walker, Zeller, Lord Walsingham and a few other classics — until, starting with 1905, a flood of new descriptions 4 ZOOLOGISCHE VERHANDELINGEN I93 (1982) and records from India and Ceylon appeared, all by the hand of Edward Meyrick. He was almost the single specialist of these faunas, until his death in 1938. To this great Lepidopterist we chiefly owe our knowledge of all groups of Microlepidoptera of Sri Lanka. After his death this information stopped abruptly. In the later years great changes have taken place in the tropical countries. We are now facing, alas, the disastrously quick destruction of natural bio- topes, especially by the reckless liquidation of the tropical forests.

M and Sharma.HC Email: [email protected] ICRISAT, India IPRRG 2018 To end of hunger and malnutrition and achieve food security and improve nutrition is at the heart of the sustainable development goals. Almost 800 million people still undernourished,and161million under-five year olds are stunted (FAO, 2016). It is estimated that 500 million smallholder farms in the developing world are supporting almost 2 billion people. In Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, these small farms produce about 80% of the food consumed (IFAD, 2011). Recent studies have indicated that a 2 degrees increase in global temperature will affect agricultural productivity, particularly in the tropical regions(Kirtman et al. 2013; Dinesh et al. 2015). The concentration of carbon dioxide has increased from 300 ppm to 405 ppm (Houghton et al. 1995; NOAA 2018). Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data Source: Boden et al., 2015.

  • Importation of Persimmon, Diospyros Kaki Thunb., As Fresh Fruit with Calyxes from Japan Into the United States
    United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Plant Protection and Quarantine Importation of Persimmon, Diospyros kaki Thunb., as Fresh Fruit with Calyxes from Japan into the United States Risk Management Document April 21, 2015 Plant Health Programs (PHP) Regulations, Permits and Manuals (RPM) Contact Person: David Lamb Introduction APHIS received a request to import persimmon fruits into the United States from the National Plant Protection Organization of Japan (NPPO). A pathway-initiated pest risk assessment (PRA) was prepared by APHIS’s Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) to identify the unmitigated pest risks associated with importation of persimmon fruits with calyxes from Japan (USDA, 2013). The PRA was prepared based on pest interception data, scientific literature, and information provided by the Government of Japan. The PRA identified quarantine pests of D. kaki that occur in Japan and that could be introduced into the United States (continental United States, Alaska and Hawaii) in commercial consignments. The PRA identified ten arthropods and nine fungi likely to follow the pathway of persimmons with calyxes from Japan.

  • Docket No. APHIS-2015-0098]
    This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 08/30/2016 and available online at http://federalregister.gov/a/2016-20724, and on FDsys.gov Billing Code: 3410-34-P DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service 7 CFR Part 319 [Docket No. APHIS-2015-0098] RIN 0579-AE27 Importation of Fresh Persimmon with Calyxes from Japan into the United States AGENCY: Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, USDA. ACTION: Proposed rule. SUMMARY: We are proposing to amend the regulations concerning the importation of fruits and vegetables to allow the importation of fresh persimmon with calyxes from Japan into the United States. As a condition of entry, the persimmons would have to be produced in accordance with a systems approach that would include requirements for orchard certification, orchard pest control, post-harvest safeguards, fruit culling, traceback, and sampling. The persimmons would also have to be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate with an additional declaration stating that they were produced under, and meet all the components of, the agreed upon systems approach and were inspected and found to be free of quarantine pests in accordance with the proposed requirements. This action would allow the importation of fresh persimmons with calyxes from Japan while continuing to protect against the introduction of plant pests into the United States. DATES: We will consider all comments that we receive on or before [INSERT DATE 60 DAYS AFTER DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by either of the following methods: Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to http://www.regulations.gov/#!docketDetail;D=APHIS-2015-0098.

  • Records and Descriptions of Microlepidoptera (7)
    RECORDS AND DESCRIPTIONS OF MICROLEPIDOPTERA (7) by A. DIAKONOFF Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden OLETHREUTINAE (Eucosmidae auct., Eucosminae auct.) Introduction The study of the South Asiatic representatives of the subfamily Olethreu- tinae of the Tortricidae is difficult on account of various reasons. Our basic knowledge of this group of insects originates from the knowledge of the Palaearctic fauna; unfortunately the taxonomy, and especially the nomenclature of the European Olethreutinae has for a long time been in a deplorable state of confusion and only recent pioneer work along modern lines, chiefly by Obraztsov, leads to some order. Unavoidably this con- fusion throws a shadow upon the study of the Olethreutinae from other regions than the Palaearctis. Since genital characters are of cardinal importance for the classification of the genera and species of the present group, it is clear that a fundamental revision is necessary, because nobody has ever bothered about these char- acters before, at least with regard to the South Asiatic fauna. When describing species from that region classic authors, as e.g., Snellen, usually chose a convenient generic name, familiar to the students of the Palaearctic fauna, to attribute them to ; Meyrick, as conveniently, merged many species in one of some four of his enormous genera. Many species of Olethreutinae are ornated with intricate markings that are very difficult to describe in a terse diagnose, as was the habit with those older authors; these descriptions are still more difficult to read! Other species are uniform to such an extent that their identification is im- possible without the use of genital characters.
