During the present study, a total of 675 moth specimens were collected from the study area which represented 112 species from 16 families and eight super families. Though much of the species has been reported earlier from other parts of India, 15 species were first records for the state of Kerala. The highest species richness was shown by the family Erebidae and the least by the families Lasiocampidae, Uraniidae, Notodontidae, Pyralidae, Yponomeutidae, Zygaenidae and Hepialidae with one species each. The results of this preliminary study are promising; it sheds light on the unknown biodiversity of Vagamon hills which needs to be strengthened through comprehensive future surveys.

    Edita: Conselleria de Medi Ambient Direcció General de Biodiversitat Dibuix de la coberta: Joan Miquel Bennàssar Impressió: Gràfiques Son Espanyolet Diposit Legal: PM 1992-2002 Pròleg Aquesta obra que teniu a les mans és el producte d’un llarg procés de recerca i d’investiga- ció. És el resultat de més de 12 anys de treballs que han duit a terme els científics del grup s‘Albufera-IBG i molts d‘altres experts i aficionats que han aportat l’esforç i els coneixe- ments per completar aquesta visió global de la biodiversitat de s‘Albufera de Mallorca. Un cos de coneixements que s’ha anat formant pas a pas, com és característic de tot procés cien- tífic. La Conselleria de Medi Ambient és ben conscient que la conservació del patrimoni natural no es pot fer sense els estudis que ens han de permetre conèixer quins són els recursos sota la nostra responsabilitat i quin valor tenen. De cada vegada el gran públic coneix més quines són les espècies amenaçades i les accions per conservar-les troben ressò en els mitjans de comunicació i en la sensibilitat de la socie- tat en general. Però cal demanar-se: estam fent tot allò que és necessari per garantir la con- servació del patrimoni natural per a les generacions pròximes? Són suficients els coneixe- ments actuals d’aquest patrimoni? Quines espècies o quines poblacions són les més valuo- ses? Aquest llibre ajudarà a respondre algunes d‘aquestes preguntes. És un compromís entre la visió del científic, que sempre desitja aprofundir en l’estudi, i els gestors, que demanen amb urgència unes eines adequades per planificar les accions de conservació i avaluar-les.
  • Elachistidae: Agonoxeninae

    Elachistidae: Agonoxeninae

    Agonoxena argaula Elachistidae: Agonoxeninae: Agonoxenini Palm Moths, Grass-Miner Moths Biosecurity BIOSECURITY ALERT This Family is of Biosecurity Concern Occurrence This family occurs in Australia. Background Palm moths are a small group of 31 genera that belong to the Agonoxeninae, a sub-family of the family Elachistidae (grass-miner moths). This sub-family is divided into two tribes the Agonoxenini and the Blastodacnini, twenty species of which are native to Australia. Agonoxenini are globally known as pests of palms, and consist of, and typified by, the four species belonging to the genus Agonoxena: A. argaula, A. phoenicia, A. pyrogramma and A. miniana. The Australian native representative of this genus is Agonoxena phoenicia (palm moth), which feeds on Alexandra or northern bangalow palm (Archontophoenix alexandrae). The taxonomy of this group has recently undergone major changes from studies incorporating new molecular and morphological data. Firstly, the former family Blastodacnidae was retained under the Agonoxenidae (Hodges, in Kristensen 1999), and then the latter treated under the Elachistidae to become the subfamily Agonoxeninae (Heikkilä et al. 2014, Sohn et al. 2016), relegating the Blastodacnidae and the Agonoxena group to tribal status, Blastodacnini and Agonoxenini respectively. Palm moths are the only members of the Elachistidae, currently considered to be of biosecurity importance to northern Australia. Diagnosis Diagnostic Features of Agonoxenini (Palm Moth Caterpillars) 1. Secondary setae present. Agonoxena argaula has numerous secondary setae that are much smaller than the primary setae. However, A. pyrogramma only has secondary setae on the prolegs and A10 but it is still likely that secondary setae are characteristic of Agonoxena (see Agonoxena diagnosis and description below).

    The Biology, Host Range, Parasites, and Hyperparasites of Koa Seed Insects in Hawaii: a Review

    Vol. 24, Nos. 2 & 3, October 15,1983 317 The Biology, Host Range, Parasites, and Hyperparasites of Koa Seed Insects in Hawaii: a Review JOHN D. STEIN1 ABSTRACT The biology and host range of koa seed insects, their parasites, and hyperparasites in Hawaii are reviewed. The information reported may be applicable to other native or introduced legumes because of the wide hosthnst rangeranopt ofrtf a fewfi»w ofnf thetht* insects.inc^Wc Koa, Acacia koa Gray, is considered the most valuable native timber species in Hawaii. Pure stands of koa cover approximately 7.5 thousand hectares (18.6 thousand acres) with an additional 172.4 thousand hectares (426 thousand acres) of koa-ohia mixture in the native forest ecosystems within the State. Selective logging has reduced the quality of koa to less desirable commercial grade trees. Since 1978, the Hawaii State Department of Land and Natural Resources has been replanting sites where koa once grew. The emphasis on reforestation of this high value hardwood has stimulated research by the Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, to select and propagate genetically superior trees. Progeny from these trees will then be used to establish viable seed orchards. Insects present a potentially serious threat to koa seed production. In a recent survey, I found that up to 86% of the seed was destroyed by insects, and three insects were responsible for 93% of the damage (Stein 1983). This review discusses the biology and host range of the koa seed insects, and lists their parasites. Previously published biological data for these insects were augmented with information from the Bernice P.
