Larson JLL La Salle Note: PP = Provincial Park; CA = Conservation Area; AC = Algonquin Count (July 6); BC = Lambton Count (June 30); TC = Toronto Count (July 6); HRCA = Halton Region Conservation Authority 1 The basis for selection ofthe data included in this publication was as follows: a) New information on range and new occurrence localities; b) Valuable data on flight period, broods and population monitoring, and c) Life history data including foodplants, nectar sources, larval description and habits, ovipositing data and behaviour, pupal description and siting, adult habits, predation, etc. Occasional Publication #'s 10 through 30 are designed to complement each other in such a way as to present in a common format all the information (as selected) known to the compiler with respect to Ontario Lepidoptera to the end of 1997. Please note that Section 3 in each ofthese publications addresses the corrections required to previous T.E.A. Occasional Publications. Section 6 ofthis publication is organised in accordance with "A Catalogue/Check-list ofthe Butterflies of North America North ofMexico" by Lee D. Miller and F.M. Brown (Lepidopterists' Society Memoir No. 2 - 1981) as corrected by "Supplement to A Catalogue/Checklist of the Butterflies of North America North of Mexico" by Clifford D. Ferris, Editor (Lepidopterists' Society Memoir No.3 - 1989). The compiler has also noted, where of interest, the usage of James A. Scott in his "The Butterflies ofNorth America" (1986). In addition, recent information on a number of species in "Butterflies of Canada" by Ross Layberry, Peter Hall and Donald Lafontaine (1998) has necessitated some changes or additions to the nomenclature. These are noted in the listings. The common names are as per Alexander B. Klots - "A Field Guide to the Butterflies ofNorth America, East ofthe Great Plains", except in a few cases not included in Klots. For the Moths, "Check List ofthe Lepidoptera ofAmerica North ofMexico (1983)" by Ronald W. Hodges et al is used. The contents of this publication have been checked for errors and accuracy as much as possible. Any errors and omissions will be corrected in future publications. Each locality listed herein is followed by a number in square brackets. This number is the County, District or Regional Municipality as shown in Figures 1 & 2, e.g. Hearst [53] means Hearst (Cochrane District). Note: Ross Layberry of Ottawa has pointed out that the changes to county names that were made in publication # 25-93 (1992 Summary) and later created difficulty with records in his area since Leeds! Grenville and StormontiDundas!Glengarry are large areas which do not allow proper placement of the records. Accordingly, in this publication, the aforementioned counties will be represented with their original numbering, namely Leeds [27], Grenville [28], Stormont [29], Dundas [30] and Glengarry [31]. Note that these italicised numbers correspond wjth the maps found in the Ontario Butterfly Atlas. Where the date given is followed by a number in brackets, this represents the number of specimens encountered, i.e. (3). Also note that M = male, F = female, C = collected, R = released and S = sighting. Ifthere are any errors and/or omissions or suggestions please advise: Alan 1.

Hopefully it will get back on track for 1998 - Ed.]. In most areas, there was a cool spring, leading to later appearances for many species. ******************** 3. CORRECTIONS TO PREVIOUS T.E.A. PUBLICATIONS. In the Ontario Butterfly Atlas (Holmes, A.M., Hess, Q.F., Tasker, R.R. & Hanks, A.J. - 1991): Page 161 lists two specimens of the Zabulon Skipper [Poanes zabulon (Boisd.)] as being recorded in Ontario. The first record from Kettle Point (Lambton County) on June 7, 1987 has been shown in all probability to be Poanes hobomok and should be discounted as P. zabulon. In Occasional Publication # 29-97 (1996 Summary): All the Algonquin Park records followed by (AC) under observers (AC = Algonquin Count) only repre­ sent those butterflies recorded by one set of observers and do not represent count totals. These may be found in Ontario Insects, Vol. 2, No.2. Listings for the following species at Kemptville [27](2 km NE of) should be corrected to Kemptville [27](1 km NE of): Erynnis icelus~ Carterocephalus palaemon~ Glaucopsyche lygdamus~ Charidryas gorgone~ Basilarchia archippus and Coenonympha inornata. Page 17 - In the General Summary (section 5), it was reported in para. 5 that 16 species new to Lennox and Addington County were recorded. One of our members reports that only one of these (Polites origenes) is new~ all the others having previous records in TEA Summaries Page 19 - The record listed as Epargyreus clarus - Manitoulin Is. (Misery Bay) June 21 (2) should be changed to Thorybes pylades (Error in entry). Page 28 - The record or the Pipevine Swallowtail at Wheatley Harbour is not a record late date. The 1973 Summary has a date ofOctober 15th recorded, and this is the latest date so far. Page 29 - The record listed for Papilio glaucus glaucus - Manitoulin Is. (Misery Bay) June 21 (40) should be changed to P.g. canadensis (Error in entry). Page 34 - The Matheson record for the Harvester is the second. See TEA Summary for 1993. Page 40 - Under Plebejus saepiolus: Algonquin PP [47] July 6 (1 - 2nd Park record?)(AC) should read: Algonquin PP [47] July 6 (1 - 5th Park record and first since 1956)(MNP). Page 45 - Under Phyciodes tharos: the record for form tharos from Algonquin Park (line 4) should be under form selenis.

    BON ECHO PROVINCIAL PARK One Malaise trap was deployed at Bon Echo Provincial Park in 2014 (44.89405, -77.19691 278m ASL; Figure 1). This trap collected arthropods for twenty weeks from May 7 – September 24, 2014. All 10 Malaise trap samples were processed; every other sample was analyzed using the individual specimen protocol while the second half was analyzed via bulk analysis. A total of 2559 BINs were obtained. Over half the BINs captured were flies (Diptera), followed by bees, ants and wasps (Hymenoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and beetles (Coleoptera; Figure 2). In total, 547 arthropod species were named, representing 22.9% of the BINs from the site (Appendix 1). All BINs were assigned at least to Figure 1. Malaise trap deployed at Bon Echo family, and 57.2% were assigned to a genus (Appendix Provincial Park in 2014. 2). Specimens collected from Bon Echo represent 223 different families and 651 genera.

Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity, Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 Abstract A list of 1531 species ofLepidoptera is presented, collected over 15 years (1988 to 2002), in eleven southern West Virginia counties. 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,

    Moths of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge

    MOTHS OF UMATILLA NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE: Results from 10 sites Sampled May 22-23, 2017 Dana Ross 1005 NW 30th Street Corvallis, OR 97330 (541) 758-3006 [email protected] SUMMARY Macro-moths were sampled from the Umatilla National Wildlife Refuge for a third time 22-23 May, 2017 as part of an ongoing pollinator inventory. Blacklight traps were deployed for a single night at ten sites representative of major plant communities in the McCormack and Paterson Units. A grand total of 331 specimens and 36 moth species were sampled. Of those, 17 species (47%) were documented from the refuge for the first time. In a somewhat larger geographical context, 21 species were recorded for the first (8), second (7) or third (6) time from Morrow County, Oregon while 4 species were documented for the first (1) or second (3) time from Benton County, Washington. INTRODUCTION National Wildlife Refuges protect important habitats for many plant and animal species. Refuge inventories have frequently included plants, birds and mammals, but insects - arguably the most abundant and species-rich group in any terrestrial habitat - have largely been ignored. Small size, high species richness and a lack of identification resources have all likely contributed to their being overlooked. Certain groups such as moths, however, can be easily and inexpensively sampled using light traps and can be identified by regional moth taxonomists. Once identified, many moth species can be tied to known larval hostplant species at a given site, placing both insect and plant within a larger ecological context. Moths along with butterflies belong to the insect Order Lepidoptera.

Moth, and Effects of Piperidine Alkaloids on Preference and Performance 1 EVA CASTELLS AND MAY R. BERENBAUM Department of Entomology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 320 Morrill Hall, 505 S Goodwin Ave., Urbana, IL 61801 Environ. Entomol. 35(3): 607Ð615 (2006) ABSTRACT Conium maculatum L. (Apiaceae), or poison hemlock, is an invasive plant native to Europe that has become extensively naturalized throughout North America. This species contains piperidine alkaloids, including coniine and ␥-coniceine, that are highly toxic to vertebrates. C. maculatum was relatively free from herbivores in North America until the accidental introduction 30 yr ago of its monophagous European associate Agonopterix alstroemeriana (Clerck) (Lepidoptera: Oecophoridae). At present, A. alstroemeriana is widespread across the United States, and in some areas, such as the Northwest, can inßict substantial damage on its host plant, leading to desiccation and death. A. alstroemeriana has been used in recent years for the biological control of C. maculatum, although its use has been limited by the availability of larvae, which are Þeld-collected from early to mid-spring, and by the lack of available information about its life history and feeding habits. Here we describe a laboratory-rearing protocol incorporating a simulated winter to induce diapause and a semideÞned artiÞcial diet that allows the production of multiple generations per year and enabled us to determine the number and duration of A.

    CHECKLIST of WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea)

    WISCONSIN ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY SPECIAL PUBLICATION No. 6 JUNE 2018 CHECKLIST OF WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea) Leslie A. Ferge,1 George J. Balogh2 and Kyle E. Johnson3 ABSTRACT A total of 1284 species representing the thirteen families comprising the present checklist have been documented in Wisconsin, including 293 species of Geometridae, 252 species of Erebidae and 584 species of Noctuidae. Distributions are summarized using the six major natural divisions of Wisconsin; adult flight periods and statuses within the state are also reported. Examples of Wisconsin’s diverse native habitat types in each of the natural divisions have been systematically inventoried, and species associated with specialized habitats such as peatland, prairie, barrens and dunes are listed. INTRODUCTION This list is an updated version of the Wisconsin moth checklist by Ferge & Balogh (2000). A considerable amount of new information from has been accumulated in the 18 years since that initial publication. Over sixty species have been added, bringing the total to 1284 in the thirteen families comprising this checklist. These families are estimated to comprise approximately one-half of the state’s total moth fauna. Historical records of Wisconsin moths are relatively meager. Checklists including Wisconsin moths were compiled by Hoy (1883), Rauterberg (1900), Fernekes (1906) and Muttkowski (1907). Hoy's list was restricted to Racine County, the others to Milwaukee County. Records from these publications are of historical interest, but unfortunately few verifiable voucher specimens exist. Unverifiable identifications and minimal label data associated with older museum specimens limit the usefulness of this information. Covell (1970) compiled records of 222 Geometridae species, based on his examination of specimens representing at least 30 counties.
