B unci-e & Co. L td., Arbroath. GKRALI) i)E C. FRASER rOHEWORl) FOREWORD BY AI,LAN BRJNDLK TT was in August, 1939, that T first liad the pleasure of meeting the Frasers. Together with a small party of entomologists from N.E. I.ancashire. invited to eollect at light near the shore at Formby, I experienced the somewhat overwhelming enthrisiasm and hospitality extended to all at “ Warren Mount” . Fed, feted, and equipped, we were taken by cars to the shore, sheets were laid down in front of the headlights, and a memorable night ensued. The night was dark and warm, the moths arrived in great numbers and, true to the Fraser tradition, work did not cease until a few minutes before the last train left Formby, when a hurried dash to the station deposited a happy party of entomologists on the first stage of the journey home. The next meeting was long delayed. The following week-end saw the black-out in force, and it was not until 1946 that T found the Frasens, still enthusiastic, establishing the Eaven Society. Its rapid rise was due to the personality of its founder, G. de C. Fraser and to that of Mrs. Fraser. Its equally rapid decline in mem­ bership following the former’s death, perhaps emphasised its depend- aiice on its creator. Tt is pleasant to know, however, that the Society, though .small, is very active as a field Society. Tn March, 1957, after preliminary discussion, the Society decided to publish a list of Formby T^epidoptera. which, based on 6. de C.’s lists and the E.Fi.L.. had been brought up to date during the inter­ vening years by M. J. T.eech. On the departure overseas of the latter the list was passed to me for checking. Since the inclusion of the smaller .species seemed to be desirable T asked TT. Tf. Michaelis if he would compile such a list. He willingly agreed, checked the original list and included a short introduction. Another necessary contnbn- tion should be. T felt, a short biographical account of G. de C., and his d-iughter, who had accompanied him and Mrs. Fraser on so many entomological trips, kindly provided this. The notes on the flora of the sand dunes were provided by F. Turner of Nelson. The frontis­ piece (yf G. de C. comes from a block which the publishers, Messrs. T. Bancle & Co. Ltd., kindly made available for the publication. The Formby district covered by the list comprises the coastal strip of Lancashire from Crosby, near Liverpool, northwards to Birkdale, near Southport. The district has long been recognised by Lancashire entomologists as an excellent collecting ground, especially in the past. The disappearance of certain species may be due to the gradual spread of the towns and villages, but sufficient habitats remain to make the RAVEN ENTOMOLOGICAli AND NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY district of outstanding importance, not only in Lancashire, but in Kngland as a whole. The district lies on Triassic sediments, chiefly of Keupcr Marl and Sandstones of great depth, oveidain with considerable glacial drift, I t is extremely flat, for, apart from a small area (not shown on the sketch map) near Liverpool, it all lies below the 50 feet contour until the neighbourhood of Ormskirk is reached. Additional sea-borne material has been added to the coast within historic times. In 1736 the site of the ])re-sent main street of South- port formed the high water mark, but deposition of material and subsequent reclamation of mai-shes has moved this over half a mile to the west. A t Formby this accretion of sea-borne material is said to have been less, but from the railway line westwards the paths to the sea lead for well over a mile through soft sand consolidated only by the covering of vegetation. Apart from the generalised habitats which can be found in any district, the attraction of Formby to entomologists rests chiefly on two types of habitats—the marshlands to the ea.st of the railway and the sand dunes to the west. The marshlands are referred to as mosses, e.g. Formby Moss, but this word is ill-applied. It seems better to restrict this word to the limited flora developing on very acid soils which are found commonly in north-w’est England. Formby Moss is an area of marshland or fen, in parts so overgrown as to be developing into woodland scrub. The deciduous trees found include birch, alder, haKel, willow, sallow, etc., the birch especially regenerating freely to produce birch scrub. Any open spaces are colonised by typical marsh plants, such as Meadow­ sweet, Valerian. Marigold, etc. Drainage channels have been dug in parts and these appear to be effective, but, luckily, are of limited range. Some parts of former marshlands have been brought into culti­ vation, but sufficient still exist to provide extremely good collecting. The main interest of the district, however, lies in the sand dune area, which is very extensive. Since the tendency is for the coast line to move outwards as fresh material is brought in, an interesting series of new and old dunes can he studied from the beach inland. The first line of dunes often rise sheer from the beach and are sparsely colonised by Marram grass, together with Sea Holly, Sea Spurge and Sea Rocket growing in between the Marram tufts. On the second line of dunes the vegetation increases, the sheltered east side being almost completely covered with a varied flora includ­ ing other species of grass, sorrel, bird’s-foot trefoil, hawlnveeds, violets, creeping thistles, etc. On the third line of dunes conifers have been planted and so little ground flora develops. The conifers occur in groups and extend for some distance inland, but open spaces are found between them, forming flat expanses of ground covered with a rich flora, partly dominated with bramble, dwarf willow and broom, amongst which smaller herbaceous plants such as Composites and Umbelliferae abound. FOBEW OBD 0 The hollows between the dunes, the slacks, are often marshy, and liere the botanist finds his choicest species— Centaury, Gentians, Grass of Parnassus, Fleabane and Maish Helleborine— growing amongst a tangle of dwarf willow. In the wetter parts Keed-mace and Iris occur, though these seem to be deti'easiiig in parts owing to drainage. Further inland, and along the drainage cliannels, lines of alders and hazels occur, and patches of wet alder woodland are found, reminis­ cent of the alder carrs of the fens, though on a reduced scale; in these the vegetation is scanty, chiefly consisting of Dog’s Mercury and Woody Nightshade. Patches of willowherb are common amongst the cleared parts of the coniferous woodland, whilst ragwort abounds. .\ few area.s of heathland also occur, composed of Calluna and Erica developed on a dry, .sandy soil. One fairly extensive piece lies near tlio railway by Freshfield station. Tlic broad outlines of the botany of Forraby above are necessarily rather scanty, but sufficient has been given for an appraisal of the pos.sibilities of the district. The entomologist will also gain a good idea of the species of T.«pidoptera to be expected. The present list is the work of so many entomologists over the past years (including the many contributors whose records are in the Ellis List) that it should be a reasonably complete one— that is a list in which the majority of the species have been recorded— but, undoubtedly, there remain species which still await discovery. 86 Princess St., Nelson, Lancs. RAVEN- ENTOSIOEOGICAI. AND NATURAE HISTORY SOCIETY G. de C. FRASER BY C. DE C. W H lT ia K Y J<''R031 childhood, G. de C. had been interested in motlis and biittorllies and had collected with Itis brothers in and around Hightown in the days when it was a tiny liamlet. Throughout his youth he retained his interest to a greater or lesser degree, but gradually it became submerged beneath the more pressing attentions of his business and a large family. I t was in June 1931 that liis interest finally came to the fore again, and emerged from its chrysalis to become the flourishing enthusiasm it remained for the rest of his long life. The rhododendrons in the front garden at Warren Mount were in full bloom and Gs de C.— with his constant companion, S.C.F.— were taking their nightly stroll round tlie garden, when there, quivering above the flamboyant blossoms, was a livornica moth. A great rarity even now, but at that time only eight had been caught in the century. One can imagine the rush that ensued. Where wore the nets? The killing bottle? A ll the paraphernalia of the chase? Miraculously the moth waited and. after what seemed an interminable time, was safely in the net. Tliat was a thrilling event, but excitement rose to fever pitch on the following evening when a second livornica was discovered and captured in the same place. His interest well aroused G. de C. lost no time in reinvestigating the possibilities of the neighbourhood.

    La connaissance de la biodiversité sur l’Est Cantal un enjeu pour le développement du territoire ! Depuis avril 2017, le SYTEC s’est engagé dans une démarche d’Atlas de la Biodiversité Territoriale, avec l’objectif d’une part, de mieux connaitre la biodiversité du territoire et, d’autre part, d’intégrer les enjeux connus dans les démarches de planification notamment. Dans ce cadre, un ensemble de données naturalistes sur les territoires de l’Est Cantal ont pu être collectées auprès de nombreuses structures (Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, collectivités, associations, naturalistes professionnels…). Des inventaires sont également confiés chaque année par le SYTEC à des structures professionnelles pour compléter les connaissances sur des secteurs mal connus. En complément, des enquêtes participatives, qui rencontrent un vif succès, ont été lancées à destination du grand public, particulièrement des habitants des territoires. Ce travail de collecte a permis de réunir plus d’un million de données depuis le début de la démarche. A la fin de l’année 2018, ce sont 2505 espèces qui ont été répertoriés sur le territoire depuis 10 ans pour la faune (1017 espèces) et au cours de ces 15 dernières années pour la flore, les champignons et les algues (respectivement 1359, 31 et 98 espèces recensés). Parmi elles, 303 espèces sont considérées comme des espèces à enjeux en termes de préservation. Les inventaires se sont poursuivis en 2019 et continueront en 2020, permettant une mise à jour annuelle des connaissances de l’Est Cantal. Afin de partager

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,

  • Lepidoptera in Cheshire in 2002
    Lepidoptera in Cheshire in 2002 A Report on the Micro-Moths, Butterflies and Macro-Moths of VC58 S.H. Hind, S. McWilliam, B.T. Shaw, S. Farrell and A. Wander Lancashire & Cheshire Entomological Society November 2003 1 1. Introduction Welcome to the 2002 report on lepidoptera in VC58 (Cheshire). This is the second report to appear in 2003 and follows on from the release of the 2001 version earlier this year. Hopefully we are now on course to return to an annual report, with the 2003 report planned for the middle of next year. Plans for the ‘Atlas of Lepidoptera in VC58’ continue apace. We had hoped to produce a further update to the Atlas but this report is already quite a large document. We will, therefore produce a supplementary report on the Pug Moths recorded in VC58 sometime in early 2004, hopefully in time to be sent out with the next newsletter. As usual, we have produced a combined report covering micro-moths, macro- moths and butterflies, rather than separate reports on all three groups. Doubtless observers will turn first to the group they are most interested in, but please take the time to read the other sections. Hopefully you will find something of interest. Many thanks to all recorders who have already submitted records for 2002. Without your efforts this report would not be possible. Please keep the records coming! This request also most definitely applies to recorders who have not sent in records for 2002 or even earlier. It is never too late to send in historic records as they will all be included within the above-mentioned Atlas when this is produced.

Floral evolution is expected to reflect interactions with the most important 20 pollinators, but few studies have quantified the contribution of different pollinators to current 21 selection on floral traits. To compare selection mediated by diurnal and nocturnal pollinators on 22 floral display and spur length in the rewarding orchid Gymnadenia conopsea, we manipulated 23 the environment by conducting supplemental hand-pollinations and selective pollinator 24 exclusions in two populations in central Norway. In both populations, the exclusion of diurnal 25 pollinators significantly reduced seed production compared to open-pollination, whereas the 26 exclusion of nocturnal pollinators did not. There was significant selection on traits expected to 27 influence pollinator attraction and pollination efficiency in both the diurnal and nocturnal 28 pollination treatment. The relative strength of selection among plants exposed to diurnal and 29 nocturnal visitors varied among traits and populations, but the direction of selection was 30 consistent.

  • Mass Flow in Hyphae of the Oomycete Achlya Bisexualis
    Mass flow in hyphae of the oomycete Achlya bisexualis A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Cellular and Molecular Biology in the University of Canterbury by Mona Bidanjiri University of Canterbury 2018 Abstract Oomycetes and fungi grow in a polarized manner through the process of tip growth. This is a complex process, involving extension at the apex of the cell and the movement of the cytoplasm forward, as the tip extends. The mechanisms that underlie this growth are not clearly understood, but it is thought that the process is driven by the tip yielding to turgor pressure. Mass flow, the process where bulk flow of material occurs down a pressure gradient, may play a role in tip growth moving the cytoplasm forward. This has previously been demonstrated in mycelia of the oomycete Achlya bisexualis and in single hypha of the fungus Neurospora crassa. Microinjected silicone oil droplets were observed to move in the predicted direction after the establishment of an imposed pressure gradient. In order to test for mass flow in a single hypha of A. bisexualis the work in this thesis describes the microinjection of silicone oil droplets into hyphae. Pressure gradients were imposed by the addition of hyperosmotic and hypoosmotic solutions to the hyphae. In majority of experiments, after both hypo- and hyperosmotic treatments, the oil droplets moved down the imposed gradient in the predicted direction. This supports the existence of mass flow in single hypha of A. bisexualis. The Hagen-Poiseuille equation was used to calculate the theoretical rate of mass flow occurring within the hypha and this was compared to observed rates.

  • Zoogeography of the Holarctic Species of the Noctuidae (Lepidoptera): Importance of the Bering Ian Refuge
    © Entomologica Fennica. 8.XI.l991 Zoogeography of the Holarctic species of the Noctuidae (Lepidoptera): importance of the Bering ian refuge Kauri Mikkola, J, D. Lafontaine & V. S. Kononenko Mikkola, K., Lafontaine, J.D. & Kononenko, V. S. 1991 : Zoogeography of the Holarctic species of the Noctuidae (Lepidoptera): importance of the Beringian refuge. - En to mol. Fennica 2: 157- 173. As a result of published and unpublished revisionary work, literature compi­ lation and expeditions to the Beringian area, 98 species of the Noctuidae are listed as Holarctic and grouped according to their taxonomic and distributional history. Of the 44 species considered to be "naturall y" Holarctic before this study, 27 (61 %) are confirmed as Holarctic; 16 species are added on account of range extensions and 29 because of changes in their taxonomic status; 17 taxa are deleted from the Holarctic list. This brings the total of the group to 72 species. Thirteen species are considered to be introduced by man from Europe, a further eight to have been transported by man in the subtropical areas, and five migrant species, three of them of Neotropical origin, may have been assisted by man. The m~jority of the "naturally" Holarctic species are associated with tundra habitats. The species of dry tundra are frequently endemic to Beringia. In the taiga zone, most Holarctic connections consist of Palaearctic/ Nearctic species pairs. The proportion ofHolarctic species decreases from 100 % in the High Arctic to between 40 and 75 % in Beringia and the northern taiga zone, and from between 10 and 20 % in Newfoundland and Finland to between 2 and 4 % in southern Ontario, Central Europe, Spain and Primorye.
