Entomofauna carpathica, 2018, 30(1): 58-59 FAUNISTIC RECORDS FROM SLOVAKIA Lepidoptera: Tineidae Trichophaga scandinaviella ZAGULAJEV, 1960 Galanta [7872], 27.VIII.2013, 1 ♂, 9.IX.2017, 1 ♂, 27.VII.2012, 1 ♀, R. Štefanovič leg., det. & coll.; Veľký Grob [7771], 21.VIII.2015, 1 ♂, Z. Tokár leg. & coll. New species for Slovakia and for the Central Europe. Before this record, the species was known only from Lithuania, Latvia, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway and from the European part of Russia (ZAGULAJEV 1960, BENGTSSON 2002). Trichophaga scandinaviella (Figs 1A-F, H) strongly resembles Trichophaga tapetzella (Linnaeus, 1758) (Figs 1G, I) by its habitus, so that comparison of the copulatory apparatus is required for its proper determination (JALEVA & KYRKI 1980). In Norway, the species was reared from animal origin debris of Eurasian eagle-owl (Bubo bubo). This micro-moth is probably associated with the nests of predatory (raptor) birds, where it uses their nest debris as feed. The specimen from Galanta (SW Slovakia), has been collected on the balcony of an apartment house during a moth-collection night. UV light was used for moth attraction. Since the Long-eared owl (Asio otus) nests are situated near by the moth-collection site, it is quite probable that T. scandinaviella develops in the nest-debris of these owls.

Contribution to the Lepidoptera Fauna of the Madeira Islands Part 2
Beitr. Ent. Keltern ISSN 0005 - 805X 51 (2001) 1 S. 161 - 213 14.09.2001 Contribution to the Lepidoptera fauna of the Madeira Islands Part 2. Tineidae, Acrolepiidae, Epermeniidae With 127 figures Reinhard Gaedike and Ole Karsholt Summary A review of three families Tineidae, Epermeniidae and Acrolepiidae in the Madeira Islands is given. Three new species: Monopis henderickxi sp. n. (Tineidae), Acrolepiopsis mauli sp. n. and A. infundibulosa sp. n. (Acrolepiidae) are described, and two new combinations in the Tineidae: Ceratobia oxymora (MEYRICK) comb. n. and Monopis barbarosi (KOÇAK) comb. n. are listed. Trichophaga robinsoni nom. n. is proposed as a replacement name for the preoccupied T. abrkptella (WOLLASTON, 1858). The first record from Madeira of the family Acrolepiidae (with Acrolepiopsis vesperella (ZELLER) and the two above mentioned new species) is presented, and three species of Tineidae: Stenoptinea yaneimarmorella (MILLIÈRE), Ceratobia oxymora (MEY RICK) and Trichophaga tapetgella (LINNAEUS) are reported as new to the fauna of Madeira. The Madeiran records given for Tsychoidesfilicivora (MEYRICK) are the first records of this species outside the British Isles. Tineapellionella LINNAEUS, Monopis laevigella (DENIS & SCHIFFERMULLER) and M. imella (HÜBNER) are dele ted from the list of Lepidoptera found in Madeira. All species and their genitalia are figured, and informa tion on bionomy is presented. Zusammenfassung Es wird eine Übersicht über die drei Familien Tineidae, Epermeniidae und Acrolepiidae auf den Madeira Inseln gegeben. Die drei neuen Arten Monopis henderickxi sp. n. (Tineidae), Acrolepiopsis mauli sp. n. und A. infundibulosa sp. n. (Acrolepiidae) werden beschrieben, zwei neue Kombinationen bei den Tineidae: Cerato bia oxymora (MEYRICK) comb.

True Clothes Moths (Tinea Pellionella, Et Al.)
Circular No. 36, Second Series. United States Department of Agriculture, DIVISION OF ENTOMOLOGY. THE TRUE CLOTHES MOTHS. {Tinea pellionella et al. ) The destructive work of the larvae of the small moths commonly known as clothes moths, and also as carpet moths, fur moths, etc., in woolen fabrics, fur, and similar material during the warm months of summer in the North, and in the South at any season, is an alto- gether too common experience. The preference they so often show for woolen or fur garments gives these insects a much more general interest than is perhaps true of any other household pest. The little yellowish or buff-colored moths sometimes seen flitting about rooms, attracted to lamps at night, or dislodged from infested garments or portieres, are themselves harmless enough, and in fact their mouth-parts are rudimentary, and no food whatever is taken in the winged state. The destruction occasioned by these pests is, therefore, limited entirely to the feeding or larval stage. The killing of the moths by the aggrieved housekeeper, while usually based on the wrong inference that they are actually engaged in eating her woolens, is, nevertheless, a most valuable proceeding, because it checks in so much the multiplication of the species, which is the sole duty of the adult insect. The clothes moths all belong to the group of minute Lepidoptera known as Tineina, the old Latin name for cloth worms of all sorts, and are characterized by very narrow wings fringed with long hairs. The common species of clothes moths have been associated with man from the earliest times and are thoroughly cosmopolitan.

Modeling Hydroprene Effects on Eggs and 5 Instar Wandering Phase Larvae of the Indianmeal Moth, Plodia Interpunctella
MODELING HYDROPRENE EFFECTS ON EGGS AND 5th INSTAR WANDERING PHASE LARVAE OF THE INDIANMEAL MOTH, PLODIA INTERPUNCTELLA (LEPIDOPTERA: PYRALIDAE) by SIVAKUMAR MOHANDASS B.Sc., (Agriculture) Mahathma Phule Agriculture University, 1998 __________________________________________________________ A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Entomology College of Agriculture KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2005 ABSTRACT The control of Indianmeal moth [Plodia interpunctella (Hübner)], a commonly found serious stored product pest around the world, relies mainly upon chemical control methods. Because of recent changes in the laws and regulations governing pesticide usage in the United States, there is an increasing need for finding safer chemicals to control insect pests. Hydroprene, an insect growth regulator, is considered to be a safe alternative. In this study, I quantified the effects of hydroprene on two critical life stages of Indianmeal moth, the eggs and 5th instar wandering phase larvae. Maximum development time in the untreated controls was 13.6 ± 0.6 d at 16°C and minimum development time was 2.3 ± 0.4 d at 32°C. At 20°C and 24°C, the effect of hydroprene on egg development became more evident; development time generally increased with exposure interval, with some variability in the data. The mean egg mortality among all temperatures was 7.3 ± 4.6%. Among the treatments, mortality of eggs increased as the exposure periods increased within any given temperature, with a dramatic increase in mortality with increase in temperature. Egg mortality was lowest at 16°C when exposed for 1 h (0 ± 3%), but mortality gradually increased up to 32 ± 3% when exposed for 18 h.
