    AFROTROPICAL BUTTERFLIES. MARK C. WILLIAMS. http://www.lepsocafrica.org/?p=publications&s=atb Updated 30 December 2020. Genus Micropentila Aurivillius, 1895 Dots Entomologisk Tidskrift 16: 202 (195-220, 255-268). Type-species: Liptena adelgitha Hewitson, by original designation. The genus Micropentila belongs to the Family Lycaenidae Leach, 1815; Subfamily Poritiinae Doherty, 1886; Tribe Liptenini Röber, 1892. The other genera in the Tribe Liptenini in the Afrotropical Region are Liptena, Obania, Kakumia, Tetrarhanis, Falcuna, Larinopoda, Pseuderesia, Eresina, Eresiomera, Parasiomera, Citrinophila, Argyrocheila, Teriomima, Euthecta, Baliochila, Cnodontes, Congdonia, Eresinopsides, Toxochitona, Mimacraea and Mimeresia. Micropentila (Dots) is a purely Afrotropical genus comprising 34 species. The genus is largely confined to the central African rainforest zone. The genus was monographed by Stempffer & Bennett (1965) who described 16 new species. Most species are closely tied to ‘ant-trees’, two or three specimens often flying quite rapidly in the vicinity of such an ant-nest. They prefer to settle on bare twigs (Larsen, 1991c). Some Ugandan members of the genus were regularly taken at specific ‘ant-trees’ over a number of years but have not been seen since their ‘ant- trees’ were cut down (Larsen, 2005a). Most species fly low down but a few fly just below the forest canopy (Jackson, vide Stempffer, 1965). The females of some species have been observed ovipositing on twigs and tree-trunks in the presence of Crematogaster ants (Larsen, 2005a). *Micropentila adelgitha (Hewitson, 1874) Common Dots Male Common Dots feeding on a tendril shoot.

  • Butterflies As an Indicator Group for the Conservation Value of the Gola Forests in Sierra Leone
    BUTTERFLIES AS AN INDICATOR GROUP FOR THE CONSERVATION VALUE OF THE GOLA FORESTS IN SIERRA LEONE Claudio Belcastro* & Torben B. Larsen** * Lungotevere di Pietro Papa 21 00146 Roma, Italia [email protected] ** 358 Coldharbour Lane London SW9 8PL, UK [email protected] EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Less than 5% of Sierra Leone’s original forest cover still exists, though some of that hardly merits the term forest. Besides the remaining forest on the Freetown Peninsula, and the important Loma and Tingi Mountains, with their submontane elements, Gola Forest is the most significant forest in the country. During late April, 2006, a one week field-trip was made to study the butterflies of the Gola Forests by two separate teams, headed by one of the authors of this report. Belcastro also returned to Gola North for three days in early May. In all, 370 species were positively recorded. The estimated total for the area is about 600, accounting for about 80% of the 750 or so known Sierra Leone butterflies. Many rare and interesting butterflies occur and, in general, the Gola Forests are now the westernmost outpost of the West African forest fauna. Many species endemic to Africa west of the Dahomey Gap and to its Liberia subregion were found in Gola. The fact that so many rare and interesting species were collected in, sometimes quite heavily, logged areas of Gola is a strong indicator that the forests have the capacity to return to a state that resembles the original over the next 25 years. In Gola (South), and especially in Gola (North), there appear to be areas of undisturbed forest that act as reservoirs of biodiversity that help to re-populate the regenerating parts of the forest.

Box 14308, 0800 Nairobi, Kenya. E-mail: [email protected] 3Corresponding author Abstract Finding of two undescribed species, closely related to Eresiomera paradoxa (Schultze, 1917) in Liberia and the Demo- cratic Repubic of Congo led the authors to revise the material available in the African Butterfly Reserarch Institute (ABRI), Nairobi. Examination of the material revealed that the placement of E. paradoxa and the related species neither in the genus Eresiomera Clench, 1965, nor in Pseuderesia Butler, 1874 in which the species was originally described, is satisfactory, based on characters offered by the wings and genitalia. Solving the problem a new genus, Parasiomera gen. nov. is erected for E. paradoxa and related taxa and two new species are described: P. alfa sp. nov., P. kivuensis sp. nov. The taxon orientalis Stempffer, 1962 orignally described as subspecies of Pseuderesia paradoxa is also elevated to species rank and placed in the new genus resulting the new combination and new status Parasiomera orientalis (Stempffer, 1962).

  • The Butterflies and Skippers (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) of Angola: an Updated Checklist
    Chapter 10 The Butterflies and Skippers (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) of Angola: An Updated Checklist Luís F. Mendes, A. Bivar-de-Sousa, and Mark C. Williams Abstract Presently, 792 species/subspecies of butterflies and skippers (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) are known from Angola, a country with a rich diversity of habitats, but where extensive areas remain unsurveyed and where systematic collecting pro- grammes have not been undertaken. Only three species were known from Angola in 1820. From the beginning of the twenty-first century, many new species have been described and more than 220 faunistic novelties have been assigned. As a whole, of the 792 taxa now listed for Angola, 57 species/subspecies are endemic and almost the same number are known to be near-endemics, shared by Angola and by one or another neighbouring country. The Nymphalidae are the most diverse family. The Lycaenidae and Papilionidae have the highest levels of endemism. A revised check- list with taxonomic and ecological notes is presented and the development of knowl- edge of the superfamily over time in Angola is analysed.

    Nota Lepi. 42(1) 2019: 121–128 | DOI 10.3897/nl.42.37808 In memoriam: Campbell Robert Smith (1951–2019) Richard I. Vane-Wright1 1 Scientific Associate, Department of Life Sciences, Natural History Museum, London SW7 5BD UK, [email protected] http://zoobank.org/12F077C3-38C6-4FC4-8141-1B43E1B06FE5 Received 1 July 2019; accepted 15 July 2019; published: 23 July 2019 Subject Editor: David C. Lees. Figure 1. Campbell with Graphium policenes, ca 2000, courtesy NHM. Campbell Smith was employed as an entomologist at London’s Natural History Museum for 35 years, during which time he worked on various catalogues, curated parts of the museum collec- tions, and contributed to the output of several research groups. In 2009 he took early retirement to look after his widowed father. His sudden and unexpected death on 11th March 2019 came as a shock to former museum staff and various entomologists around the world, acknowledging his loss with sorrow mixed with good memories of this most amiable colleague and friend. Campbell was born at Stoke Newington, North London, on 28th November 1951, the only child of Arthur William and Olga Lilian Smith. Olga (née Harris) and Arthur were both from Hackney, and had married there in 1951. Arthur, who worked most of his life before retirement as a Postal & Telegraph Officer (as had his father before him), served in the Army during WWII. By the time he was demobbed, he had become involved with ENSA (Entertainments National Service Asso- ciation), and was later encouraged by famed trombone player Don Lusher to enter the dance band world as a singer.

COLLINS FITCA EMMC Report Number B3 REPORT ON BUTTERFLIES FROM AFRICAN BUTTERFLY RESEARCH INSTITUTE TO FITCA August 9-16 2004 By Steve C Collins, ABRI Fieldwork: Peter Walwanda, Francis Ambuso, Brian Finch OVERVIEW: FITCA Project The regional project FITCA (Farming in Tsetse Controlled Areas) has a general objective to integrate tsetse control activities into the farming practices of rural communities such that the problem of trypanosomosis can be contained to the levels that are not harmful to both human and the livestock and environmentally gentle and integrated into the dynamics of rural development and are progressively handled by the farmers themselves. The project is hosted by the Inter-African Bureau for Animal Resources of the African Union (AU-IBAR) and covers areas with small scale farming in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and Ethiopia. EMMC (Environmental Monitoring and Management Component) is the environmental component of FITCA. It is implemented by ILRI in collaboration with CIRAD (as member of SEMG, Scientific Environmental Monitoring Group). This regional component has been charged with the responsibility of identifying of monitoring indicators and methodologies, as well as the development of an environmental awareness among the stakeholders. It contributes to propositions of good practices and activities mitigating the impacts and rehabilitating the threatened resources likely to result directly or indirectly of tsetse control and rural development.

Box 4241 Kampala, Uganda www.tourism.go.ug [email protected] © RED LIST OF THREATENED SPECIES IN UGANDA 2018 Ministry of Wildlife, Tourism and Antiquities Foreword Uganda is a signatory to several international conventions that relate to the conservation of all biodiversity in the country such as the Convention on Biological Diversity, Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species and Cartagena protocol all intended for the benefit local communities and global community. Species are disappearing due to various pressures on natural resources. Due to human population increasing trends and development pressures, previously intact habitats both protected and on private land have been converted, cleared and/or degraded leading to a decline in species population and diversity. The effects of climate change, which are hard to forecast in terms of pace and pattern, will probably also accelerate extinctions in unknown ways. Studies have been conducted to tally the number of species of animals, plants and fungi that still exist globally. However the estimates normally produced are based on the International Union of Conservation of Nature criterion that at times overshadows the national scales.
