Abstract In the present paper, the checklist of the Chelis glaphyra (Eversmann, 1843) species-group with 33 new combinations established is provided. A new subspecies of Chelis gratiosa (Grum-Grshimailo, 1890) is described from Kyrgyzstan. Chelis gratiosa kashmirica is upgraded to the species level: Chelis kashmirica (Ferguson, 1985), stat. & comb. nov., its brachipterous female is described and illustrated for the first time. Female genitalia of Chelis golbecki (Dubatolov, 1996), comb. nov. are described and illustrated for the first time. Key words: Palearctia, Central Asia, new combination. Introduction The genus Palearctia Ferguson, 1984 was revised by Dubatolov (1996) and Saldaitis & Ivinskis (2002) and the full checklist of the genus was provided by Dubatolov & de Vos (2010). Subsequently, Rönkä et al. (2016) synonymized Palearctia as well as six other genera with Chelis Rambur, 1866 based on the analysis of eight genetic markers. However, the authors did not establish new combinations for species comprised by the genera synonymized leaving the taxonomy of the enlarged genus Chelis quite messy. In the present paper, we provide the checklist of the species and subspecies previously assigned with Palearctia which we consider as Ch. glaphyra species-group, with establishing new combinations for them. Chelis gratiosa, comb. nov. is distributed in high mountain regions of Central Asia and is subdivided into 10 subspecies. During his entomological trip to Transalai Range in southern Kyrgyzstan, Mr. V. Ecologica Montenegrina, 38, 2020, 51-62 ON THE TAXONOMY OF THE CHELIS GLAPHYRA SPECIES-GROUP Kartashov collected a single alive female of an unidentified subspecies of Ch. gratiosa and managed getting eggs from it which made it possible to obtain a series of specimens of both sexes. All the specimens have uniformly dark hindwing clearly different from those of all known subspecies of Ch. gratiosa and this population represents an undescribed subspecies which is described below as new. Dubatolov (1996) downgraded the taxon Ch. kashmirica to a subspecies of Ch. gratiosa due to its external resemblance to Chelis gratiosa rupicola (Grum-Grshimailo, 1890), comb. nov. and the similar valva shape. However, females of Ch. kashmirica are brachipterous and its male and female genitalia are markedly different from those of Ch. gratiosa therefore we hereby upgrade it to the species level. Additionally, Dubatolov (1996) described Chelis golbecki (Dubatolov, 1996), comb. nov. by two males and one female but did not describe and illustrate its female genitalia. In the present paper, we describe and illustrate the female genitalia of the species for the first time. Material and methods Abbreviations of the depositories used: ASV = private collection of Aidas Saldaitis (Vilnius, Lithuania); MWM/ZSM = Museum Witt Munich in the Bavarian State Collection of Zoology (Museum Witt München / Zoologische Staatssammlung München, Munich, Germany); SDM = private collection of Sergei Didenko (Moscow, Russia); VKV = private collection of Vladimir Kartashov (Voronezh, Russia); WIGJ = World Insect Gallery (Joniškis, Lithuania). Other abbreviations used: AV = genitalia slide prepared by A. Volynkin; HT = holotype; PT = paratype. The genitalia were dissected and mounted in euparal on microscope slides. The photos of adults were taken using a Nikon D3100/AF-S camera equipped with a Nikkor, 18–55 mm lens. The photos of genitalia were taken by the same camera attached to a microscope with an LM-scope adapter. All pictures were processed using the Adobe Photoshop CC 2018® software.

Kartashov leg. (Coll. SDM). Etymology. The new subspecies is dedicated to prominent Russian Lepidoptera collector Vladimir Kartashov. Diagnosis. The new subspecies (Figs 1–4) is most similar externally to Ch. gratiosa rupicola (Fig. 5) and also Ch. rasa (Figs 13, 14, 22, 28) and Ch. golbecki (Figs 15, 16, 23, 27), but is distinguishable by the pinkish suffusion on the thorax and the forewing (it is absent in the three similar taxa), and the intense blackish suffusion on hindwing making it almost uniformly dark with only a small pale spot in the subterminal or terminal area medially (whereas in the three similar taxa, the hindwing has intense blackish or dark brown suffusion in the subterminal area only, while the medial and basal areas are weakly suffused with blackish scales and the discal spot is present). Additionally, the new subspecies differs from Ch. rasa and Ch. golbecki by the longer rami of the male antenna, and from Ch. rasa by its less elongate forewing apex. The male genital capsule of Ch. g. kartashovi (Fig. 17) is nearly identical to that of Ch. g. rupicola (Fig. 18) and is also similar to those of Ch. g. gratiosa (Fig. 20) and Ch. g. flavala (Fig. 19), but differs from the two latter subspecies by its more rectangular cucullus. The aedeagus of Ch. g. kartashovi differs from those of the three similar subspecies by its markedly narrower dentate carinal plate. The vesicae of the four subspecies display no remarkable differences. As the female genitalia of Ch. g. rupicola and Ch. g. flavala are unknown therefore the female genitalia morphology of the new species (Fig. 24) is compared to that of Ch. g. gratiosa (Fig. 25): Ch. g. kartashovi has a somewhat narrower ductus bursae and its appendix bursae is longer than that of the nominate subspecies. Description. External morphology of adults (Figs 1–4, 9). Forewing length 11-12 mm in males and 11-13 mm in females. Male antenna shortly bipectinate, female antenna serrate. Sexual dimorphism limited: compared to males, females have forewing with more rounded apex and more reduced markings and dark suffusion on hindwing less intense. Head dark brown with admixture of pinkish scales. Collar dark brown with pinkish margin. Thorax blackish brown with two pinkish longitudinal stripes and pinkish margins of tegulae. Upperside of abdomen blackish brown with ochreous brown triangular

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,

  • Insect Survey of Four Longleaf Pine Preserves
    A SURVEY OF THE MOTHS, BUTTERFLIES, AND GRASSHOPPERS OF FOUR NATURE CONSERVANCY PRESERVES IN SOUTHEASTERN NORTH CAROLINA Stephen P. Hall and Dale F. Schweitzer November 15, 1993 ABSTRACT Moths, butterflies, and grasshoppers were surveyed within four longleaf pine preserves owned by the North Carolina Nature Conservancy during the growing season of 1991 and 1992. Over 7,000 specimens (either collected or seen in the field) were identified, representing 512 different species and 28 families. Forty-one of these we consider to be distinctive of the two fire- maintained communities principally under investigation, the longleaf pine savannas and flatwoods. An additional 14 species we consider distinctive of the pocosins that occur in close association with the savannas and flatwoods. Twenty nine species appear to be rare enough to be included on the list of elements monitored by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (eight others in this category have been reported from one of these sites, the Green Swamp, but were not observed in this study). Two of the moths collected, Spartiniphaga carterae and Agrotis buchholzi, are currently candidates for federal listing as Threatened or Endangered species. Another species, Hemipachnobia s. subporphyrea, appears to be endemic to North Carolina and should also be considered for federal candidate status. With few exceptions, even the species that seem to be most closely associated with savannas and flatwoods show few direct defenses against fire, the primary force responsible for maintaining these communities. Instead, the majority of these insects probably survive within this region due to their ability to rapidly re-colonize recently burned areas from small, well-dispersed refugia.

Inte- grated taxonomy, phylogeography and conservation in the genus Chelis Rambur, [1866] in the Iberian Peninsula (Lepidoptera, Erebidae, Arctiinae). Spixiana 39 (2): 273-286. The taxonomy of Chelis, a genus distributed within the Palaearctic region, is re- vised based on morphological and molecular data (DNA barcodes) in the Iberian Peninsula. The neighbour-joining and maximum likelihood trees, combined with adult male genitalia and morphology, support the existence of three species indicat- ing two major lineages, one corresponding to mountainous taxa (Chelis arragonensis and C. cantabrica), with restricted distribution, and the other represented by Chelis maculosa, a taxon with a broad European distribution and a great number of in- fraspecific taxa. Haplotypic variation is highly concordant with species taxonomy; the variation at a continental scale reveals a significant geographic pattern of haplo- groups: C.
