This English version therefore should be regarded as an original publication that has nomenclatural priority. The Flora and Fauna of Korea logo was designed to represent six major target groups of the project including vertebrates, invertebrates, insects, algae, fungi, and bacteria. The book cover and the logo were designed by Jee-Yeon Koo. Chlorococcales: 1 Preface The biological resources include all the composition of organisms and genetic resources which possess the practical and potential values essential to human live. Biological resources will be firmed competition of the nation because they will be used as fundamental sources to make highly valued products such as new lines or varieties of biological organisms, new material, and drugs. th As the Nagoya Protocol was adopted in 2010 and entered into force in the 12 Conference of Par- ties of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in 2014, it is expected that the competition to get biological resources will be much intensive under the rapidly changed circumstance on the access and benefic sharing of the genetic resources (ABS). To cope with a new international para- digm on all kinds of issues related to biological resources, the Ministry of Environment of Korea enacted a new law called ‘An act on access and benefit sharing of genetic resources’ on January 17th, 2017. Each nation in the world is investigating and clearing information of native species within its ter- ritory in order to secure its sovereignty rights over biological resources. The National Institute of Biological Resources (NIBR) of the Ministry of Environment has published the ‘Flora and Fauna of Korea’ since 2006 to manage biological resources in comprehensive ways and to enhance national competitiveness by building up the foundation for the sovereignty over biological resources. Pro- fessional research groups consisting of professors and related experts of taxonomy examined sys- tematically a total of 13,478 species for the past eight years to publish 163 volumes in both Korean and English versions, and two volumes of World Monograph covering 216 species of invertebrates. This year, 11 volumes of the Flora and Fauna of Korea in both Korean and English versions in- cluding 858 species of invertebrates, insects, vascular plants, algae and fungi are additionally pub- lished. Flora and Fauna of Korea are the first professional records to describe all the species of the nation in a comprehensive way, and they would contribute to level up the taxonomic capacity. The NIBR will continue to publish flora and fauna of Korea that will contribute conservation and application of biological resources for successful implementation of the ABS protocol. Finally, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to authors who spared no effort to publish the Flora and Fauna of Korea.

Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity, Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 Abstract A list of 1531 species ofLepidoptera is presented, collected over 15 years (1988 to 2002), in eleven southern West Virginia counties. A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

Nat. Croat., Vol. 30, No. 1, 37–52, 2021, Zagreb. From 2016 to 2020 numerous surveys were undertaken to improve the knowledge of the pyraloid moth fauna of Biokovo Nature Park. On August 27th, 2020 one specimen of Psorosa mediterranella (Amsel, 1954) from the family Pyralidae was collected on a small meadow (985 m a.s.l.) on Mt Biok- ovo. In this paper, the first data about the occurrence of this species in Croatia are presented. The previ- ous mention in the literature for Croatia was considered to be a misidentification of the past and has thus not been included in the checklist of Croatian pyraloid moth species. P. mediterranella was recorded for the first time in Croatia in recent investigations and, after other additions to the checklist have been counted, is the 396th species in the Croatian pyraloid moth fauna. An overview of the overall pyraloid moth fauna of Croatia is given in the updated species list.

It also follows the up-to-date order and taxonomy of Pohl et al. (2010), rather than that of Hodges et al. (1983). Brian Scholtens, Greg Pohl and Jean-François Landry collecting moths at a sheet illuminated by a mercury vapor (MV) light, Tolman Bridge, 24 July 2003, during the 2003 Olds meetings of the Lepidopterist’s Society (C.D. Bird image). Tolman Bridge, is located in the valley of the Red Deer River, 18 km (10 miles) east of the town of Trochu. The bridge and adjoining Park land are in the north half of section 14, range 22, township 34, west of the Fourth Meridian. The coordinates at the bridge are 51.503N and 113.009W. The elevation ranges from around 600 m at the river to 800 m or so near the top of the river breaks. In a Natural Area Inspection Report dated 25 June 1982 and in the 1989 Trochu 82 P/14, 1:50,000 topographic map, the land southwest of the bridge was designated as the “Tolman Bridge Municipal Park” while that southeast of the bridge was referred to as the “Tolman Bridge Recreation Area”. In an Alberta, Department of the Environment, Parks and Protected Areas Division paper dated 9 May 2000, the areas on both sides of the river are included in “Dry Island Buffalo Jump Provincial Park”.

THE Wild Birds Protection Act of 1894 has now been in operation within one district of Fifeshire for three complete seasons.

For some time before that this moor, which is naturally very attractive to many species of wild birds, had not been sufficiently watched or protected, and in the absence of this had become a happy hunting- ground for egg-gatherers, who regularly searched it for eggs, and gathered every egg they could find.

  • Monmouthshire Moth & Butterfly Group
    MONMOUTHSHIRE MOTH & BUTTERFLY GROUP NEWSLETTER No 86 August 2012. A monthly newsletter covering Gwent and Monmouthshire Vice County 35 Editor: Martin Anthoney Small Ranunculus (Hecatera dysodea ) Update Up to 1900 this small, pretty moth used to be common in Britain, mainly in eastern and southern counties. It then suffered a catastrophic decline, and by 1912 it had disappeared from most of its range. The last record was 1941 and it was assumed to be extinct in Britain. The Small Ranunculus reappeared in Britain on 26th June 1997 in Kent. In 1998 it was recorded in areas around the Thames Estuary which was formerly one of its strongholds, and on 14th July 1999 Roger James caught one in his light trap at Newport, well away from its former range. The next six years produced eleven further adult specimens to light in Roger’s garden, and in 2003 Kevin Dupé and Roger confirmed breeding when eggs and larvae were found on prickly lettuce at the Blaina Wharf site alongside the River Usk. Since then, records have been made from many sites along the Usk corridor in Newport and out as far as St Mellons in the west and Goldcliff in the east. In August 2012, Kevin Dupé found larvae in the Crindau area of Newport and also close to the footbridge over the River Usk near Rodney Parade. On 28th August, Roger James and I were recording butterflies when we found 20 Small Ranunculus larvae adjacent to Caldicot Railway Station and the following day a further one at Chepstow (Newhouse Farm Industrial Estate), next to the first Severn bridge.
