1927 Turner Revision of Lepid 29 A REVISION OF THE LEPIDOPTERA OF TASMANIA. Part II. By A. JEFFERIS TURNER, M.D., F,E.S., Brisbane. (Read 8th August, 1927.) It is necessary to make a f·ew corrections and additions to Part I. Chlorocorna assimilis, Luc., was inoluded owing to a misidentification, which I regret. It must be deleted; and so must Ecpatites callipolu~, Turn., which is a synonym of Mictodoca toxeuta, Meyr. An examination of specimens in· the Littler c.oHec.tion shows that a few species· from Broken Hill and South Australia received by .him have by some mistake had T>a,sma.nian 1abels affixed. I have, of course, not included these, and for the same reasons I think Microdes typhopa, Low., and Sandava xylistis, Swin., should also be deleted. The generic name Pauroneura was used earlier by me in the Gelechiadx, I therefore propose to substitute the name PaurUlioneura for the Hyponome~Ltid genus. The additions will be found ·below.

In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge not strictly professional." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields.

Zoosystema 39 (2): 213-225. https://doi.org/10.5252/z2017n2a3 ABSTRACT An annotated checklist for the terrestrial and freshwater arthropods of French Polynesia is presented. Compiled with the help of 48 experts and based on published records, it comprises 3025 valid species names belonging to the classes of Hexapoda Blainville, 1816 (2556 species), Chelicerata Heymons, 1901 (36 7 species), Myriapoda Latreille, 1802 (22 species) and Crustacea Pennant, 1777 (80 species). Reported are 1841 taxa from the Society Islands, followed by the Marquesas Islands with 1198 taxa, KEY WORDS the Austral Islands with 609 taxa, the Tuamotu Islands with 231 taxa and the Gambier Islands with Species database, 186 taxa. The specificity of this fauna and the analysis of each class and order are discussed. The level endemism, of endemism is particularly high, 61% of the known species, with non-native species representing biogeography, speciation, 13% of the overall species count. The threats to the native fauna and flora of French Polynesia and threats to endemic species. particularly to endemic insect species are detailed. RÉSUMÉ Liste de référence des arthropodes terrestres et d’eau douce de Polynésie française (Chelicerata; Myriapoda; Crustacea; Hexapoda).

  • Biotic Threats to Cycas Micronesica Continue to Expand to Complicate Conservation Decisions
    insects Communication Biotic Threats to Cycas micronesica Continue to Expand to Complicate Conservation Decisions Benjamin E. Deloso 1 , L. Irene Terry 2, Lee S. Yudin 1 and Thomas E. Marler 1,* 1 College of Natural and Applied Sciences, University of Guam, Mangilao, GU 96923, USA; [email protected] (B.E.D.); [email protected] (L.S.Y.) 2 School of Biological Sciences, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT 84112, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 7 November 2020; Accepted: 7 December 2020; Published: 16 December 2020 Simple Summary: Effective conservation of endangered plant species requires identifying their greatest threats to formulate management protocols. Invasive species are a result of global change and are a major threat to biodiversity. We used the island cycad Cycas micronesica K.D. Hill as a model that represents the global issues of conservation science and invasion biology. In Guam, several non-native insect invasions began in 2003 and have combined to threaten the island population of this cycad species. In this article, we summarize the history of reported invasions and the reported non-native insect herbivores that have recently increased the threat status. We also discuss the interactions among herbivores that threaten the sustainability of C. micronesica on the island of Guam. Abstract: Invasions of non-native species can threaten native biodiversity, and island ecosystems are ideal for studying these phenomena. In this article, first, we report on the invasive species that combine to threaten the island cycad Cycas micronesica by reviewing the history of previously reported invasions and providing an update of recent invasions.
