Chr., Demerges D., Drouet E. Révision taxinomique et nomenclaturale des Rhopalocera et des Zygaenidae de France métropolitaine. Conséquences sur l’acquisition et la gestion des données d’inventaire. Rapport SPN 2013 - 19 (Septembre 2013) Dupont (Pascal), Demerges (David), Drouet (Eric) et Luquet (Gérard Chr.). 2013. Révision systématique, taxinomique et nomenclaturale des Rhopalocera et des Zygaenidae de France métropolitaine. Conséquences sur l’acquisition et la gestion des données d’inventaire. Rapport MMNHN-SPN 2013 - 19, 201 p. Résumé : Les études de phylogénie moléculaire sur les Lépidoptères Rhopalocères et Zygènes sont de plus en plus nombreuses ces dernières années modifiant la systématique et la taxinomie de ces deux groupes. Une mise à jour complète est réalisée dans ce travail. Un cadre décisionnel a été élaboré pour les niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifique avec une approche intégrative de la taxinomie. Ce cadre intégre notamment un aspect biogéographique en tenant compte des zones-refuges potentielles pour les espèces au cours du dernier maximum glaciaire. Cette démarche permet d’avoir une approche homogène pour le classement des taxa aux niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifiques. Les conséquences pour l’acquisition des données dans le cadre d’un inventaire national sont développées. Summary : Studies on molecular phylogenies of Butterflies and Burnets have been increasingly frequent in the recent years, changing the systematics and taxonomy of these two groups. A full update has been performed in this work. -

Upon our arrival, we soon completed passport control and baggage reclaim and made our way out to the arrivals area, before making our way to the bus stop for the bus to the car-rental area to collect the minibuses. With luggage loaded, we boarded the vehicles for the journey to the Vercors region. We drove south-westwards on the A43 and A48 motorways, stopping to buy water at Aire L’Isle d’Abeau service area, before continuing south. We left the motorway at Voreppe, on the outskirts of Grenoble, and made our way, via Sessenage, up onto the Vercors Plateau to our destination, the Hotel Le Val Fleuri at Lans en Vercors. Along the way, we recorded Rook and Starling, neither of which, as yet, occur on the plateau, as well as Grey Heron. At the hotel, our base for the rest of the tour, we were met by our host, Eliane Bonnard. -

At present it seems wise to consider Ultraaricia, along with just men- tioned genus-group taxa as a subgenus of Aricia, consisting of four species that form a compact group, fairly homogenous by the male genitalia. In lateral projection, visible half of uncus presented in two processes: superior, straight or curved dorsally, pointed at apex, and inferior that terminates with rounded or abrupted lobe; brachia Short, strongly chitinized, their distal part almost straight (cf. Sauter, 1968: 6; Higgins, 1975: 147). The ränge of locally distributed populations of >Ar/c/a (Ultraaricia) anteros extends from Balkan Pen insu la on the West to the E. Turkey (and Syria?) on the East; three other species are conti ned to strictly limited area, overlapping the anteros ränge at its margins, and until now they still remain extremely little known. -

Rudi Verovnik UGOTAVLJANJE VELIKOSTI POPULACIJE IN OGROŽENOSTI DETELJINEGA MODRINA (Polyommatus thersites) NA SAVSKIH PRODIH PRI LJUBLJANI MAGISTRSKO DELO Ljubljana, 2018 POVZETEK Raziskava razširjenosti deteljinega modrina ( Polyommatus thersites ) v osrednji Sloveniji in dolo čitev stanja njegovega habitata je bila opravljena zaradi dolo čitve naravovarstvenih smernic, ki bodo omogočale ohranitev vrste v osrednji Sloveniji in na vseh podobnih obmo čjih v Evropi. Podrobneje smo preiskovali obmo čje na savskih prodih pri Ljubljani. Ugotovili smo, da je na obmo čju savskih prodov prisotna stabilna populacija deteljinega modrina. Na raziskovanem obmo čju smo opravili 17 terenskih dni v obdobju od 17. 5. do 8. 6. 2017. V tem času smo z MRR metodo markirali 152 osebkov, od tega 75 samcev in 77 samic. Dnevne velikosti populacije, ocenjene po metodi Jolly Seber, so se gibale nekje med 80 in 190 osebki, kar je izjemno za to vrsto, ki se sicer obi čajno pojavlja v nizkih gostotah. Na preiskovani lokaciji je ve č lo čenih rastiš č hranilne rastline turške detelje ( Onobrychis sp.), tako znotraj rastiš č kot tudi med lo čenimi rastiš či pa so se pojavljale migracije. Med migracijami so osebki preleteli tako travniške površine kot tudi makadamske poti. Deteljinega modrina smo najve čkrat ujeli na ploskvah s hranilnimi rastlinami (77 %), nekajkrat pa tudi izven rastiš č hranilne rastline. -
Butterflies & Flowers of the Kackars
Butterflies and Botany of the Kackars in Turkey Greenwings holiday report 14-22 July 2018 Led by Martin Warren, Yiannis Christofides and Yasemin Konuralp White-bordered Grayling © Alan Woodward Greenwings Wildlife Holidays Tel: 01473 254658 Web: www.greenwings.co.uk Email: [email protected] ©Greenwings 2018 Introduction This was the second year of a tour to see the wonderful array of butterflies and plants in the Kaçkar mountains of north-east Turkey. These rugged mountains rise steeply from Turkey’s Black Sea coast and are an extension of the Caucasus mountains which are considered by the World Wide Fund for Nature to be a global biodiversity hotspot. The Kaçkars are thought to be the richest area for butterflies in this range, a hotspot in a hotspot with over 160 resident species. The valley of the River Çoruh lies at the heart of the Kaçkar and the centre of the trip explored its upper reaches at altitudes of 1,300—2,300m. The area consists of steep-sided valleys with dry Mediterranean vegetation, typically with dense woodland and trees in the valley bottoms interspersed with small hay-meadows. In the upper reaches these merge into alpine meadows with wet flushes and few trees. The highest mountain in the range is Kaçkar Dağı with an elevation of 3,937 metres The tour was centred around the two charming little villages of Barhal and Olgunlar, the latter being at the fur- thest end of the valley that you can reach by car. The area is very remote and only accessed by a narrow road that winds its way up the valley providing extraordinary views that change with every turn. -
Annotated Checklist of Albanian Butterflies (Lepidoptera, Papilionoidea and Hesperioidea)

ZooKeys 323: 75–89. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.323.5684 Abstract The Republic of Albania has a rich diversity of flora and fauna. However, due to its political isolation, it has never been studied in great depth, and consequently, the existing list of butterfly species is outdated and in need of radical amendment. In addition to our personal data, we have studied the available litera- ture, and can report a total of 196 butterfly species recorded from the country. For some of the species in the list we have given explanations for their inclusion and made other annotations. Doubtful records have been removed from the list, and changes in taxonomy have been updated and discussed separately. The purpose of our paper is to remove confusion and conflict regarding published records. However, the revised checklist should not be considered complete: it represents a starting point for further research. -

Introduction
BULGARIA Nick Greatorex-Davies. European Butterflies Group Contact ([email protected]) Local Contact Prof. Stoyan Beshkov. ([email protected]) National Museum of Natural History (NMNH), Sofia, Butterfly Conservation Europe Partner Bulgarian Academy of Sciences Stanislav Abadjiev compiled and collated butterfly records for the whole of Bulgaria and published a Local Recording Scheme distribution atlas in 2001 (see below). Records are still being gathered and can be sent to Stoyan Beshkov at NMNH, Sofia. Butterfly List See Butterflies of Bulgaria website (Details below) Introduction Bulgaria is situated in eastern Europe with its eastern border running along the Black Sea coast. It is separated from Romania for much of its northern border by the River Danube. It shares its western border with Serbia and Macedonia, and its southern border with Greece and Turkey. Bulgaria has a land area of almost 111,000 sq km (smaller than England but bigger than Scotland) and a declining human population of 7.15 million (as of 2015), 1.5 million of which live in the capital city, Sofia. It is very varied in both climate, topography and habitats. Substantial parts of the country are mountainous, particularly in the west, south-west and central ‘spine’ of the country and has the highest mountain in the Balkan Mountains (Musala peak in the Rila Mountains, 2925m) (Map 1). Almost 70% of the land area is above 200m and over 27% above 600m. About 40% of the country is forested and this is likely to increase through natural regeneration due to the abandonment of agricultural land. Following nearly 500 years under the rule of the Ottoman Empire, Bulgaria was independent for just a few years from 1908 before coming under the domination of the soviet communist regime in 1946. -
