Welch Red Book of Butterflies in Turkey Doğa Koruma Merkezi – Nature Conservation Centre DKM works in partnership with government, NGOs, research institutions, experts and volunteers, aiming to develop national capacity and a sound scientific and technical basis for effective nature conservation. It encourages and facilitates the systematic collection and analysis of biodiversity and other data, and uses these both to identify priority areas for conservation, and to develop sustainable resource-use plans which will benefit biodiversity and people. DKM is the Turkish representative of Butterfly Conservation Europe (BCE), an umbrella organization for a network of partners and individuals which aims both to stimulate and co-ordinate conservation action for butterflies, moths and their habitats across Europe. BCE and Dutch Butterfly Conservation are partnering DKM in the project Developing a basis for the active conservation of Turkey’s butterflies (2009-11) funded by the Dutch Government’s BBI-Matra programme. http://www.bc-europe.org Evrim Karaçetin began to develop an interest in butterflies in 1996 when she was a Biology undergraduate at the Middle East Technical University (METU), Ankara, a university with a 4,000 ha campus famous for its rich diversity of butterflies. After completing her Masters she spent five years in the United States working on her PhD, studying Ecology and Botany under Oregon State University’s Environmental Science programme. On her return to Turkey she started her current job as an Assistant Professor in Environmental Sciences at Erciyes University. Ever since she was a student, Evrim has been involved in many nature Alkan ©Hülya Evrim Karaçetin conservation projects, acting as volunteer, researcher, advisor and teacher. Since 2007 she has worked on butterfly projects with DKM and Hilary Welch. Together with Ahmet Baytaş she is co-author of Butterflies of Turkey Hand Book published by Doğa Derneği in 2008. Hilary Welch is a founder member of DKM and has been visiting Turkey, to enjoy the landscapes and watch birds, since 1989. For 35 years her interest in natural history has developed and broadened as she has worked in nature conservation as a freelance consultant and volunteer, in the UK and abroad. In 2004 she moved from the UK to Turkey, and here a serious interest in butterflies began to develop, fuelled by the rich diversity of species and the publication of A Field Guide to the Butterflies of Turkey, by Ahmet Baytaş, in autumn 2007. She has been delighted to be able to combine her knowledge, experience and enthusiasm with that of Evrim and many other experts to develop the red list and this book, which she hopes will make a concrete contribution to the conservation of butterflies in Turkey. ©Geoff & Hilary Welch Welch Hilary J.

Available from: [www.dkm.org.tr] Red Book of Butterflies in Turkey When embarking on this red list we knew that to produce the solidly researched document, which was our aim, we were going to be reliant Acknowledgements on the willingness of many people to share with us their time and expert knowledge. Nevertheless, we were not prepared for the widespread enthusiasm and generosity we met with. Almost without exception data, photographs, knowledge, ideas and opinions were freely shared; all added immeasurable authority and value to the final assessments. The Evrim Karaçetin & Hilary J. Welch comment of Dominique Dumont, who contributed to the assessment of Bolland’s Blue (Polyommatus bollandi) was typical of the sentiments we encountered: ‘I’m happy to give as much information as possible to people who are studying my dear butterflies’. Production of this red list has thus only been possible through the assistance of a large number of people. Contributions have been many and varied: sharing expert knowledge, contributing expert opinion, assessing species’ accounts, providing butterfly records and photographs, tracking down and scanning obscure papers, collating, inputting and checking data and maps, and attending meetings and workshops. To everyone we express our sincere thanks. Whilst we take full responsibility for any errors or omissions in this red list, everyone listed below can take credit for the authority of the final product, which we sincerely hope ©DKM Archive will prove valuable in guiding butterfly conservation in Turkey for the next ten years and beyond.

Following investigations done on Kriti Papilionidae, the first author visited all the known sites adding some new biotopes; the first intent was searching for the food plants, the preimaginal instars, the places of flight with the feeding plants of adults. The first author, with the cooper­ ation of three collegues, travelled the island for more than 880 km, visiting almost all localities cited by Olivier and trying to look for new biotopes in the southern part of Rhodes; the climatic situation was in syntony with the annual trend although a disturbance in the first days of April has delayed the emergence of populations of All. cerisy at higher altitudes in the center of the island, while those at sea level have already vanished; in the intermediate area the flight period was at its peak; generally the butterflies were scarce, only All. cerisy and Manióla telmessia were found in some numbers. We didn’t find any Archon apollinus despite the search along the whole of Rhodes; we presume that the flight period had already ended for quite a time because, at least, some worn specimens should have been found; if apollinus is present on Rhodes island, it is surely very local and rare.

  • Effect of Different Mowing Regimes on Butterflies and Diurnal Moths on Road Verges A
    Animal Biodiversity and Conservation 29.2 (2006) 133 Effect of different mowing regimes on butterflies and diurnal moths on road verges A. Valtonen, K. Saarinen & J. Jantunen Valtonen, A., Saarinen, K. & Jantunen, J., 2006. Effect of different mowing regimes on butterflies and diurnal moths on road verges. Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 29.2: 133–148. Abstract Effect of different mowing regimes on butterflies and diurnal moths on road verges.— In northern and central Europe road verges offer alternative habitats for declining plant and invertebrate species of semi– natural grasslands. The quality of road verges as habitats depends on several factors, of which the mowing regime is one of the easiest to modify. In this study we compared the Lepidoptera communities on road verges that underwent three different mowing regimes regarding the timing and intensity of mowing; mowing in mid–summer, mowing in late summer, and partial mowing (a narrow strip next to the road). A total of 12,174 individuals and 107 species of Lepidoptera were recorded. The mid–summer mown verges had lower species richness and abundance of butterflies and lower species richness and diversity of diurnal moths compared to the late summer and partially mown verges. By delaying the annual mowing until late summer or promoting mosaic–like mowing regimes, such as partial mowing, the quality of road verges as habitats for butterflies and diurnal moths can be improved. Key words: Mowing management, Road verge, Butterfly, Diurnal moth, Alternative habitat, Mowing intensity.

Although the frozen larvae toleratecl -19'C down to for 24 hrs, yet they avoided inoculative freezing by two ways: 1) to prevent water invasion onto ventraHntegument, through which ice-inoculation occurred, by lateral hairs and silken mat, 2) to choose hibernating site on east-northern surface of host tree trunk, where inoculation should hardly occur. The larvae accumulated glycerol in haemolymph to the amount of 6.5% of fresh body weight, together with O.5% trehalose. For comparison, cold resistance in larvae of Sasakia charondu hibernating in Iitter layer was also studied. They showed no inoculation avoidance de$pite re]atively weak ability of freezing resistance, and cuntained trehalose (1.4%) but no glycerol. Key words Cold resistance, ice-inoculation avoidanee, hibernation, APatum metis, SUsakia charondke. Introduction Most insects hibernating above the ground in temperate or cold regions are exposed to coldness, more or Iess, hence they have developed abirities for cold resistance. Apart from co]d avoidance by migration or microhabitat selection (Hoshikawa et al., 1988), cold resistance has been studied along two lines : supercooling and freezing resistance (Asahina, 1969; Tsumuki, 1988; Leather et al,, 1993). And once acquired enough cold resistance, hibernating period is regarded as relatively safe and stable season in terms of population dynamics (Sakagami et al., 1984).

(Violaceae), are described from laboratory studies. In the laboratory eggs are laid singly on the host plant leaves as well as on the surfaces of plastic screen cages. Newly hatched larvae aggregate and feed on the host plant leaves. Later instars disperse on the plant and continue to feed on leaves and flowers. Head capsule widths, and weight and size measurements show that larvae develop through 5 instars. The larvae crawl off the host plant and pupate off the host. The life cycle from egg to adult requires 23-31 d at 26°C, and 16:8 (L:D) photoperiod in the laboratory. The butterfly has been reared continuously in the laboratory for about 2 years. Key Words: Issoria lathonia, Nymphalidae, Argynnini, Viola tricolor RESUMEN Se describe la biología y el ciclo de vida de Issoria lathonia (Linnaeus, 1758) sobre su planta hospedera, Viola tricolor L.
