The executive summary must not exceed 2 sides in total of A4 and should be understandable to the intelligent non-scientist. It should cover the main objectives, methods and findings of the research, together with any other significant events and options for new work. It has become clear that it is not only rare, localised, and specialist species that require conservation action, but common, widespread, and generalist species too. Over recent decades, severe declines have been recorded in a range of taxa for what were once very common species. Evidence suggests that these widespread but declining species need different conservation approaches to those required for rare species. In general, rare species have highly specific resource requirements, which demand targeted conservation management strategies. Because of their generalist character and often broader resource requirements, widespread species need a different approach to address their needs and reverse their population declines. What this approach should consist of is not clear for many taxa. This dichotomy clearly shows up in the species-rich group of moths. In the UK, 81 specialist species are listed as Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) Priority species and, in 2007, 71 widespread species showing evidence of rapid and severe declines (i.e. Rothamsted Research national abundance trends over 35 years: >69% decline) were added. This group of widespread but rapidly declining species were identified by species experts as requiring further research. Most of the species within the latter group are to a greater or lesser extent associated with woodland complexes, which include both closed and open areas. As forestry management has changed drastically during the last century, our research investigated the effects of some of these changes on this suite of species. The main objectives of our study focused on increasing the understanding of the effects of currently typical woodland conservation management practices which aim to open up dense, closed woodland structures, in particular coppicing and woodland ride widening, on this study group of widespread but rapidly declining species. The exact cause(s) of their decline is still unknown, and research is urgently needed to inform conservation action at both local management and wider policy levels. We placed light-traps at 36 fixed sites within the Tytherley woodland landscape (Hampshire/Wiltshire border), which represents a unique study area into management requirements for these species since the level of conservation management within this landscape has recently been increased and diversified as part of Butterfly Conservation’s South East Woodlands Project. Six ‘management’ treatments (young/medium/old coppice; wide/standard ride; non-coppiced deciduous ‘standard woodland’) were each represented by six sites, and these were all sampled nine times between July and mid-October 2010. We avoided bias by sampling all management groups every trap night, in equal numbers, and only under suitable weather conditions. The total list amounted to 11,670 individuals from 265 species of larger moth. Thirty-eight of these were part of the study group (891 individuals). Seven woodland species that might have been expected to occur did not and their dramatic national declines (87-97% over 35 years) may well explain their absence. We trapped 249 individuals of fifteen nationally scarce / Red Data Book (RDB) species: Festoon Apoda limacodes, Triangle Heterogenea asella, Mocha Cyclophora annularia, Devon Carpet Lampropteryx otregiata, Great Oak Beauty Hypomecis roboraria, Small Black Arches Meganola strigula, Kent Black Arches Meganola albula, Double Line Mythimna turca, Mere Wainscot Chortodes fluxa, Waved Black Parascotia fuliginaria, White-line Snout Schrankia taenialis, Lunar Yellow Underwing Noctua orbona, Light Crimson Underwing Catocala promissa, and Dark Crimson Underwing Catocala sponsa. The last three of these are also BAP Priority species. A remarkable find was Clifden Nonpareil Catocala fraxini. Seven individuals, both male and female, were trapped on four nights, always near suitable habitat (i.e. mature Aspen trees), pointing strongly towards a local population of this species and confirming its recent re- establishment after it became extinct in Britain in the 1960s. A key finding was that overall abundance was lowest in coppice (characterised by bare ground / exposed conditions) and wide rides (exposed conditions), whereas most moths were found in the sheltered standard rides and standard woodland. Overall species richness was lowest in coppice and highest at standard/wide rides and standard woodland. It has been shown that factors such as bare ground and exposedness impact on ambient temperature and levels of convective cooling for day-flying Lepidoptera. It is hence likely they are also having an impact on activity/occurrence of night-flying Lepidoptera. This overall picture hence contrasts with the one for heliothermic day-flying Lepidoptera (i.e. butterflies and day-flying moths), where open woodland conditions generally mean higher abundance and species richness, due to higher day temperatures, higher solar irradiance, and other key adult and larval resources. A closer look, however, reveals that while this overall picture for larger moths applies to most species, SID 5 (Rev. 07/10) Page 3 of 30 irrespective of their scarcity or national trend, the study group showed the smallest difference in abundance between sheltered and more open sites. Wide woodland rides in particular had relatively high abundance of these rapidly declining species. Also, when dividing the species into groups depending on their level of woodland affinity, we found that the species group without any direct affinity to woodland

  • The Maria Curie-Skłodowska University Botanical Garden in Lublin As a Refuge of the Moths (Lepidoptera: Heterocera) Within the City
    Acta Biologica 23/2016 | www.wnus.edu.pl/ab | DOI: 10.18276/ab.2016.23-02 | strony 15–34 The Maria Curie-Skłodowska University Botanical Garden in Lublin as a refuge of the moths (Lepidoptera: Heterocera) within the city Łukasz Dawidowicz,1 Halina Kucharczyk2 Department of Zoology, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, Akademicka 19, 20-033 Lublin, Poland 1 e-mail: [email protected] 2 e-mail: [email protected] Keywords biodiversity, urban fauna, faunistics, city, species composition, rare species, conservation Abstract In 2012 and 2013, 418 species of moths at total were recorded in the Botanical Garden of the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin. The list comprises 116 species of Noctuidae (26.4% of the Polish fauna), 116 species of Geometridae (28.4% of the Polish fauna) and 63 species of other Macrolepidoptera representatives (27.9% of the Polish fauna). The remaining 123 species were represented by Microlepidoptera. Nearly 10% of the species were associated with wetland habitats, what constitutes a surprisingly large proportion in such an urbanised area. Comparing the obtained data with previous studies concerning Polish urban fauna of Lepidoptera, the moths assemblages in the Botanical Garden were the most similar to the one from the Natolin Forest Reserve which protects the legacy of Mazovian forests. Several recorded moths appertain to locally and rarely encountered species, as Stegania cararia, Melanthia procellata, Pasiphila chloerata, Eupithecia haworthiata, Horisme corticata, Xylomoia graminea, Polychrysia moneta. In the light of the conducted studies, the Botanical Garden in Lublin stands out as quite high biodiversity and can be regarded as a refuge for moths within the urban limits of Lublin.

Despite the proximity of Sredna Gora Mountains to Sofia, the insect assemblages of this region are poorly studied. As a result of two studies carried out as a part of an Environmental Impact Assessment in the Natura 2000 Protected Areas: Sredna Gora and Popintsi, a rich diversity of insects was discovered, with 107 saproxylic and epigeobiont Coleoptera species and 355 Lepidoptera species recorded. This research was conducted during a short one-season field study in the surrounding areas of the town of Panagyurishte and Oborishte Village. Special attention was paid to protected species and their conservation status. Of the Coleoptera recorded, 22 species were of conservation significance. Forty-five Lepidoptera species of conservation importance were also recorded. KEY WORDS.WORDS.

  • Download S24 Common Fan-Foot
    Common Fan-foot Pechipogo strigilata DRAFT Species Action Plan 1. Introduction The common fan-foot was included as a priority species within the UK BAP and subsequently listed in Section 41 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act 2006. 2. Current Status 2.1 Ecology and habitat requirements The common fan-foot is associated with open woodland and recently abandoned coppice, usually on heavy soils. Important habitat features for this moth seem to include the presence of leaf litter, humid conditions, and cover from understory, low branches of trees or mature coppice. Research on this species in Worcestershire, Staffordshire and Shropshire (Grundy, 2002, 2004, 2005a,b, and 2006a) showed that the larvae prefer feeding on the wilted leaves of oak (Quercus spp.) on dying or dead branches hanging from trees. 2.2 Population and distribution Globally the range of the common fan-foot extends through Western Europe to the Caucasus, through Russia and Japan (Waring et al., 1999). In Britain, it used to occur throughout much of England and parts of Wales but now persist in only a handful of oak woodlands in south-central England and the West Midlands. In Worcestershire the moth now appears largely confined to the Wyre Forest where it is still relatively widespread. 2.3 Legislation The common fan-foot is listed under Section 41 of the NERC Act. 2.4 Summary of important sites The Wyre Forest is one of the largest ancient semi-natural woodlands in Britain extending to over 2,400 hectares. Approximately half of the forest is in Shropshire and half in Worcestershire.

    © 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.

  • High Brown Fritillary Argynnis Adippe
    Drab Looper Minoa murinata DRAFT Species Action Plan 1. Introduction The drab looper moth was included as a priority species within the UK BAP and subsequently listed in Section 41 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities (NERC) Act 2006. 2. Current Status 2.1 Ecology and habitat requirements The drab looper is most frequent in ancient woodland in open, sheltered, sunny situations and along ride edges where its larval foodplant wood spurge (Euphorbia amygdaloides) is abundant and present in large stands. The moth can also be found in other non-ancient woods with coppice plots or areas of clear-fell but here regular active management will be needed to retain the species in the long term, especially in woods where wood spurge has only a scattered distribution. 2.2 Population and distribution Drab looper is recorded in central and southern Europe (Waring et al, 1999). The moth has a restricted distribution in Britain with two main centres of population still remaining: a) central southern England (e.g. Dorset, Hampshire, Wiltshire and Berkshire) and b) the borders of England and Wales from Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire to Herefordshire and Worcestershire. Some colonies are also found in Kent. The species used to be more widespread and recorded in a number of other English counties. In Worcestershire the drab looper has been described as a local fairly common resident in open woodland containing wood spurge (Harper & Simpson, 2002) whereas Grundy (2006a) described it as rare in the Wyre Forest. 2.3 Legislation The drab looper is listed under Section 41 of the NERC Act 2006.
