E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. This paper investigates the butterfly fauna of the ‘Serra do Rola-Moça’ State Park, Minas Gerais, Brazil. We eval- uate i) the seasonal variation of species richness and composition; and ii) the variation in composition of the local butterfly assemblage among three sampling sites and between the dry and rainy seasons. Sampling was carried out monthly between November 2012 and October 2013, using entomological nets. After a total sampling effort of 504 net hours, 311 species were recorded. One of them is endangered in Brazil, and eight are probable new species. Furthermore, two species were new records for the region and eight considered endemic of the Cerrado domain. There was no significant difference in species richness between the dry and the rainy seasons, however the species composition varies significantly among sampling sites. Due to its special, heterogeneous environment, which is home to a rich butterfly fauna, its preservation is important for the conservation of the regional butterfly fauna.

A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

The estancia is located between two national parks, the "Parque Nacional Paso Bravo" in the Northeast and the "Parque Nacional Serrania de San Luis" in the West and include semi-deciduous forests, gallery forests and various types of Cerrado. During four short visits from December 2012 to June 2013 could be obtained first impressions of the existing biodiversity and photos of plants and animals were made. Special attention was paid to the most neglected invertebrate fauna, as this is the main part of biodiversity with thousands of species, many of them still unknown to science.

  • Annotated Checklist of the Butterflies of Bentsen-Rio Grande Valley State
    AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST OF THE BUTTERFLIES (LEPIDOPTERA: RHOPALOCERA) OF BENTSEN-RIO GRANDE STATE VALLEY PARK AND VICINITY JUNE, 1974 Published by TEXAS PARKS & WILDLIFE DEPARTMENT BENTSEN-RIO GRANDE VALLEY STATE PARK P.O. 30X 988; MISSION, TEXAS 78572 INTRODUCTION The species listed here in are primarily a result of the collecting by the authors during the period 1972-1973. Certain important records of the previous several years are also included. Additionally, the checklist incorporates records of a number of other lepidopterists. The primary focus of the checklist, then, is upon recent collecting, rather than being an attempt to list all known records from the Mid-Valley area. All lepidopterists collecting in the park and vicinity are urged to send copies of their records to the authors and/or the park authorities. A number of species on the list have been taken in Hidalgo Co. but not yet within the actual confines of the park; the annotations will indicate which species these are. Some of these have been taken at Santa Ana National Wildlife Refuge, approximately thirty miles down river, in habitats similar to those within the park. Others have been taken within several miles of the park, in nearby towns and along roadsides. These species can be reasonably expected to occur in the park, and their inclusion upon this list should alert the collector to their possible presence. The annotations have been kept necessarily brief. They are intended to aid the visiting lepidopterist in evaluating the significance of his catches. Local larval food plants are given where known. Much, however, is still to be learned regarding the life histories of even some of the commoner species.

  • Influence De La Pluviométrie Et De La Mise En Place Du Barrage De Petit Saut (Guyane Française) Sur La Répartition Des Lépidoptères Sphingidae
    INFLUENCE DE LA PLUVIOMÉTRIE ET DE LA MISE EN PLACE DU BARRAGE DE PETIT SAUT (GUYANE FRANÇAISE) SUR LA RÉPARTITION DES LÉPIDOPTÈRES SPHINGIDAE 1 1 1 1 P. CERDAN , R. VIGOUROUX , V. HOREAU & S. RICHARD SUMMARY The family Sphingidae bas an important potential as bio-indicators given the 118 species so far enumerated in French Guiana. For instance, more than 25,000 individuals from 104 species have been captured during 90 monthly censuses between January 1990 and October 1997 in the region of Petit Saut, a low-altitude primary forest. Among these species, seven are considered as uncommon on the site of Petit Saut. Therefore, ca 50 % of the species with a sufficient number of individuals for the analysis (n = 30) display particular character­ istics: the probability of occurrence differs significantly between months for 14.5 % of them, and for the majority of the species of this farnily seasonal variations in populations abundances are not linked to rainfall, which is usually the most important ecological factor in this environment, temperature being constant in Guianan forest. These fluctuations are therefore due to other factors. The filling of the dam reservoir affected about a third of the species. Adaptations to variations in environmental conditions are not identical across al! species. Certain species were not affected by environmental modifications while others grew up taking advantage of these changes and colonized new biotopes, and others decreased. RÉSUMÉ La famille des Sphingidés a des capacités bio-indicatrices très performantes compte tenu des 118 espèces connues en Guyane française. Par exemple, plus de 25 000 individus appartenant à 104 espèces ont été capturés lors des 90 piégeages mensuels effectués entre janvier 1990 et octobre 1997 dans une zone de forêt primaire de basse altitude dans la région de Petit Saut.

RESUMEN La riqueza biológica de Mesoamérica es enorme. Dentro de esta gran área geográfi ca se encuentran algunos de los ecosistemas más diversos del planeta (selvas tropicales), así como varios de los principales centros de endemismo en el mundo (bosques nublados). Países como Guatemala, en esta gran área biogeográfi ca, tiene grandes zonas de bosque húmedo tropical y bosque mesófi lo, por esta razón es muy importante para analizar la diversidad en la región. Lamentablemente, la fauna de mariposas de Guatemala es poco conocida y por lo tanto, es necesario llevar a cabo un estudio y análisis de la composición y la diversidad de las mariposas (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) en Guatemala.

Eight treatments consisting of Department of Entomology, dichlorvos 76 EC @ 1ml, profenofos 50 EC @ 2ml, thiodicarb 75 WP @ 1g, quinalphos 25 EC @ 2ml, College of Horticulture, azadirachtin 10000 ppm @ 1ml, chlorpyriphos 20 EC @ 2ml, flubendiamide 48 SC @ 0.2ml per litre of Mudigere, Chikkamagaluru Dist. water and untreated control were imposed on the sapota trees. The results indicated that that University of Agricultural and flubendiamide 48 SC @ 0.2 ml/l was highly effective and superior over all other treatments in reducing Horticultural Sciences, the damage by sapota midrib leaf folder as depicted by the larval population (0.47 No./plant), percent leaf Shivamogga, Karnataka, India drying (6.56%) and the cost-benefit ratio (1:3.57).
