The tribe Gazerini as previously delimited was found to be paraphyletic with respect to the genera Ceretes, Divana, Riechia, Frostetola, and Oiticicastnia. The genera Castnia, Geyeria, and Athis were also found to be non-monophyletic taxa. The mimicry pattern had multiple independent origins in the Neotropical castniids, and at least two lineages, Riechia and Prometheus, are involved in Batesian mimicry rings with unpalatable butterfly models in the tribes Acraeini and Heliconiini (Nymphalidae). We propose for Castniini 13 new synonymies and 27 new combinations. Geyeria strigata (Walker, 1854) is revalidated. The generic placements of Athis superba (Strand, 1912) and Castnia eudesmia Gray, 1838 are questionable, but presently upheld. © 2014 The Linnean Society of London, Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2014, 170, 362–399. doi: 10.1111/zoj.12102 ADDITIONAL KEYWORDS: Batesian mimicry – new synonyms – taxonomy.

M. González, M. Gonzalo Andrade-C., B. Worthy & F. Hernández-Baz Abstract The Institute of Natural Sciences of Colombia’s National University, Bogotá is a repository of objects and organisms that are part of the general and natural history of this megadiverse South American country. During a recent curation of moths deposited in the entomology collection of the museum we came across a small group of giant butterfly-moths (Castniidae). These included eleven taxa in three genera, according to a recent taxonomy of this Neotropical family. Most specimens have detailed collecting information, and with some exceptions, they are in good shape and have been well maintained. We provide herein some historical background about the museum as well as general comments on the Castniid taxa under the museum’s care.

M. González, J. H. Boone, G. M. Brilmyer & D. Le Abstract In 1908, Chicago’s Field Museum of Natural History (FMNH) acquired the collection of Lepidoptera built up by Herman Strecker (1836-1901) in Reading, Pennsylvania. Thought to have possessed, at some point, an estimated 200,000 Lepidoptera specimens, Strecker’s collection is both historically and scientifically important. Among the several families he collected and traded, Strecker had numerous specimens belonging to Castniidae. This Pantropical group is distributed in the Neotropics, Southeast Asia, and Australia. The Neotropical Castniinae contains just over 30 genera and almost 90 species, while the Australian Castniinae has 1 genus and over 40 species, about 20 of which appear to be still unidentified.

Even though natural history museums are seen by some as rather gloomy places, they are actually repositories of countless treasures and magnificent sources of knowledge. The Museum of Natural History of the University of Wroclaw is no exception. A process to curate all Museum’s Lepidoptera that started in 2012 allowed us to find among its several collections, the one that originally belonged to the renowned entomologist and insect dealer Friedrich Wilhelm NIEPELT. Among the few moth groups in such collection 37 specimens within 19 species and 22 taxa of the neotropical giant butterfly-moths (Castniidae) were found. Even though several of those specimens lack detailed collecting information, and despite the somehow troubling history of the Museum, they are in very good shape and have been well maintained. We provide herein some historical background about the Museum and NIEPELT, as well as general comments on the castniid taxa under the Museum’s care.

Its Natural History collections are recognized as one of the largest and most important in the country. In an effort to revise and curate the Lepidoptera collection, we found an interesting and well maintained group of giant butterfly moths (Castniidae). Besides providing historical information on the Museum and its origins, we also include a list with notes about the Castniidae under their care.
