Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve Moth Survey 2009
Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve Moth Survey 2009 Fauna Conservation Department Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden 29 June 2010 Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden Publication Series: No 6 Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve moth survey 2009 Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve Moth Survey 2009 Executive Summary The objective of this survey was to generate a moth species list for the Butterfly Reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest [SSSI] at Fung Yuen, Tai Po, Hong Kong. The survey came about following a request from Tai Po Environmental Association. Recording, using ultraviolet light sources and live traps in four sub-sites, took place on the evenings of 24 April and 16 October 2009. In total, 825 moths representing 352 species were recorded. Of the species recorded, 3 meet IUCN Red List criteria for threatened species in one of the three main categories “Critically Endangered” (one species), “Endangered” (one species) and “Vulnerable” (one species” and a further 13 species meet “Near Threatened” criteria. Twelve of the species recorded are currently only known from Hong Kong, all are within one of the four IUCN threatened or near threatened categories listed. Seven species are recorded from Hong Kong for the first time. The moth assemblages recorded are typical of human disturbed forest, feng shui woods and orchards, with a relatively low Geometridae component, and includes a small number of species normally associated with agriculture and open habitats that were found in the SSSI site. Comparisons showed that each sub-site had a substantially different assemblage of species, thus the site as a whole should retain the mosaic of micro-habitats in order to maintain the high moth species richness observed. -

Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle “Grigore Antipa” 62(1): 81–86. https://doi.org/10.3897/travaux.62.e38484 Abstract Eriogaster catax is a highly threatened species listed on the Annexes II and IV of the Habitats Direc- tive and on the Annex II of the Bern Convention. In Romania, up till now, it was reported only from Banat, Crișana, Satu Mare county, Transylvania and southern Dobruja. A male attracted by a light trap installed near Olteni, Dâmbovița county, in mid-October 2018, has scored the first record of this species in Muntenia. Afterwards, larvae have been found in the same place, confirming the first, adult- based finding. Keywords threatened species, faunistic note, first record, distribution. The Eastern eggar,Eriogaster catax (Linnaeus, 1758), is a moth of the family La- siocampidae Harris, 1841, largely distributed in the western Palaearctic region. In Europe, its range stretches from northern Spain, France, Belgium and the Nether- lands to Ukraine and southern Russia to the Ural Mountains. -
Lepidoptera Fauna of Namibia. I. Seasonal Distribution of Moths of the Koakoland (Mopane) Savanna in Ogongo, Northern Namibia
FRAGMENTA FAUNISTICA 57 (2): 117–129, 2014 PL ISSN 0015-9301 © MUSEUM AND INSTITUTE OF ZOOLOGY PAS DOI 10.3161/00159301FF2014.57.2.117 Lepidoptera fauna of Namibia. I. Seasonal distribution of moths of the Koakoland (Mopane) Savanna in Ogongo, northern Namibia Grzegorz KOPIJ Department of Wildlife Management, University of Namibia, Katima Mulilio Campus, Private Bag 1096, Katima Mulilo, Namibia; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: During the years 2011–2013, moths were collected in Koakoland (Mopane) Savanna in the Cuvelai Drainage System, Ovamboland, northern Namibia. In total, 77 species from 13 families have been identified. Their seasonal occurrence in this habitat was also investigated, with most species recorded in wet season between September and April, but with clear peak in February and March. The family Noctuidae was by far the most speciose (38 recorded species), followed by Crambidae (8 spp.), Sphingidae (6 spp.) and Arctiidae (4 spp.). All other families were represented by 1–3 species. For each species listed date of collection is given, and data on its global distribution. Key words: Lepidoptera, check-list, biodiversity, distribution, moths, Ovamboland INTRODUCTION According to recent quite precise estimate, there are 15 5181 species, 16 650 genera and 121 families of Lepidoptera worldwide (Pouge 2009). Lepidoptera fauna of Namibia has recently attracted attention of European entomologists. However, thorough surveys were conducted hitherto in a few areas only, such as Brandberg and Hobatere. The northern regions of the country were especially badly neglected. In southern Africa (south of Zambezi and Kunene Rivers) – 8 511 species, 2 368 genera and 89 families were recently catalogued (Vári et al. -

The list of species is based on historical bibliographic data along with new material collected by other entomologists in the last few decades. A total of 207 species belonging to the families Cossidae (3 species), Drepanidae (4 species), Lasiocampidae (7 species), Limacodidae (1 species), Saturniidae (2 species), Sphingidae (5 species), Brahmaeidae (1 species), Geometridae (55 species), Notodontidae (5 species), Nolidae (3 species), Euteliidae (1 species), Noctuidae (96 species), and Erebidae (24 species) were identified. -

Caterpillars were sampled every month from January 2017 – June 2017. A total of 3,434 specimens were identified to 86 species, 55 genera, and 19 families and 37 morphospecies. The most abundant species was Euremablanda (n=1,280). The highest diversity was found in 500 meters above mean sea level (H'= 2.66) and the similarity of caterpillar that occurred in different elevation was low. Keywords: caterpillars, elevation, diversity, KhaoYai National Park. Introduction Khao Yai National Park is a Thailand's first national park, it is the third largest national park in Thailand. Situated mainly in Nakhon Ratchasima Province. Khao Yai is part of Dong Phayayen-Khao Yai Forest Complex, a world heritage site declared by UNESCO. In at least five different forest type, Khao Yai National Park has complex ecosystem with richness of plant and animal such as mammal bird reptile and insects. -

Abstract. Eriogaster catax (Linnaeus, 1758) and E. lanestris (Linnaeus, 1758) are two related species in the family Lasiocampidae with decreasing distribution areas and extremely isolated populations, thus being vulnerable to numerous threats, particularly human impact. Until presently, the biological and ecological studies regarding the species in question are scarce, particularly for E. catax, a species protected through Annexes II and IV of the Council Directive 92/43/EEC, Annex II of the Bern Convention and Law no. 49/2011 in Romania. Taking into account the importance of the E. catax species and the insufficient information reported on the ecological need of the species, a highly detailed analysis at an ultrastructural level could provide valuable information. The primitive aspect of the wings explained the weak distribution of adults. The different flight period of adults and egg laying season were reflected on the structure, adherence and size of eggs. Also, the structure of the fibers was correlated with the different ways in which E. catax and E. lanestris use the nest. Keywords: Eriogaster catax, E. lanestris, oviposition strategy, ecological niche. Introduction Eriogaster catax (Linnaeus, 1758) and E. -
