The other two are from South America and may not be closely related to our species. Several North American forms of privata that were previously treated as separate species -- teltowa, profunda, and tenuilinea (see Forbes, 1954; Hodges et al., 1984) -- are now considered to be just forms of privata (Lafontaine and Schmidt, 2010). FIELD GUIDE DESCRIPTIONS: Beadle and Leckie (2012) ONLINE PHOTOS: TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION, ADULTS: Forbes (1954), as Antytus privatus TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION, IMMATURE STAGES: Wagner et al. (2011) ID COMMENTS: This large, bluish-black, fall-flying Noctuid is likely to be confused only with Xylotype capax, which is similar in size, color, and pattern and whose flight period overlaps. Our populations of privata (matching Forbes' description of teltowa) are much darker, however, and are smoother in appearance. They also lack the dark anal dash found in capax and the well-defined, white subterminal line, but show more contrast between the pale grayish area located before the subterminal and the mainly dark terminal area; in capax these areas are primarily concolorous. Sexes are similar. DISTRIBUTION: Found throughout the Piedmont and Coastal Plain FLIGHT COMMENT: Apparently on the wing for about two weeks in September and October HABITAT: Most of our records come from the Coastal Plain, primarily from Longleaf Pine sandhills and flatwoods habitats, as well as dry stands of hardwoods. Blackberry is not common in most of these habitats but Blueberries and Huckleberries are frequent. Our few records from the Piedmont also come from fairly dry woodlands, including a stand of Piedmont Longleaf Pine Forest, where Blueberries again are common. FOOD: Although this species may be a general feeder, caterpillars have been found only on Blackberry (Rubus sp.) and Blueberry (Vaccinium sp.) (Wagner et al., 2011; Sullivan, pers. obs.). OBSERVATION_METHODS: Comes to light but response to bait unknown. Its flight period in early September is when few people put out bait for moths. NATURAL HERITAGE PROGRAM RANKS: G5 [S3S4] STATE PROTECTION: Has no legal protection, although permits are required to collect it on state parks and other public lands. COMMENTS: Most of our records come from fairly open habitats where Blueberries are common. Old Field and other disturbed habitats where Blackberries are common have not been as well-sampled, however, and their use by this species needs to be checked before its conservation status can be determined.

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,

  • CHECKLIST of WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea)
    WISCONSIN ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY SPECIAL PUBLICATION No. 6 JUNE 2018 CHECKLIST OF WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea) Leslie A. Ferge,1 George J. Balogh2 and Kyle E. Johnson3 ABSTRACT A total of 1284 species representing the thirteen families comprising the present checklist have been documented in Wisconsin, including 293 species of Geometridae, 252 species of Erebidae and 584 species of Noctuidae. Distributions are summarized using the six major natural divisions of Wisconsin; adult flight periods and statuses within the state are also reported. Examples of Wisconsin’s diverse native habitat types in each of the natural divisions have been systematically inventoried, and species associated with specialized habitats such as peatland, prairie, barrens and dunes are listed. INTRODUCTION This list is an updated version of the Wisconsin moth checklist by Ferge & Balogh (2000). A considerable amount of new information from has been accumulated in the 18 years since that initial publication. Over sixty species have been added, bringing the total to 1284 in the thirteen families comprising this checklist. These families are estimated to comprise approximately one-half of the state’s total moth fauna. Historical records of Wisconsin moths are relatively meager. Checklists including Wisconsin moths were compiled by Hoy (1883), Rauterberg (1900), Fernekes (1906) and Muttkowski (1907). Hoy's list was restricted to Racine County, the others to Milwaukee County. Records from these publications are of historical interest, but unfortunately few verifiable voucher specimens exist. Unverifiable identifications and minimal label data associated with older museum specimens limit the usefulness of this information. Covell (1970) compiled records of 222 Geometridae species, based on his examination of specimens representing at least 30 counties.

  • Laboratory Assessment of the Effects of Bacillus Thuringiensis on Native Lepidoptera
    BIOLOGICAL CONTROL Laboratory Assessment of the Effects of Bacillus thuringiensis on Native Lepidoptera 1 2 3 3 JOHN W. PEACOCK, DALE F. SCHWEITZER, JANEL. CARTER, AND NORMAND R. DUBOIS Environ. Entomol. 27(2): 450-457 (1998) ABSTRACT The effect of 2 formulations of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki (Foray 48B and Dipel 8AF) was evaluated on 42 species of native Lepidoptera in laboratory bioassays using instars that are present in the field at the time of gypsy moth suppression applications. Mortality was significant for 27 of the 42 species evaluated against Foray 48B, and 8 of 14 species evaluated against Dipel 8AF. Susceptible species were noted in 5 of 6 families assayed-Papilionidae, Nymphalidae, Geometridae, Lasiocampidae, Satumiidae, and Noctuidae. The 1 species treated in the Lymantriidae family was not susceptible to B. thuringensis. Treated individuals that survived for a week were likely to reach adulthood. Intrageneric differences in susceptibility to B. thuringiensis were recorded among 8 species of Catocala and 3 species of Lithophane assayed. Of the 18 species assayed as 1st or 2nd instars, mortality was significant, usually exceeding 95%. By contrast, 9 of 11 species not susceptible to B. thuringiensis were assayed as penultimate or ultimate instars. However, species susceptible to B. thuringiensis were found in both early and late instars. KEY WORDS Bacillus thuringiensis, nontarget Lepidoptera, microbial control Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki is one of the in­ ication program. Sample et al. (1996) also reported a secticides most commonly used to control forest insect significant reduction in species abundance and rich­ pests. B. thuringiensis has been used extensively in ness in both larval and adult nontarget Lepidoptera suppression and eradication programs against gypsy from field studies in eastern West Virginia.

Lunifera Justification (Reason for Concern in NH) These pitch pine‐scrub oak woodland specialists serve as indicators of the ecological condition of the community. As the habitat goes unmanaged and reverts to a closed canopy system, populations decline and become increasingly vulnerable to extirpation, a reflection of the loss of vital compositional and structural elements within the community. Distribution This group of Lepidoptera occupies pine barrens. This will include both scrub oak woodlands and mature oak‐pine woodlands composed of a dense scrub oak understory and greater canopy closure. Larval host plants include tyical pine barrens plant species such as scrub oak (Quercus ilicifolia), various heath species (Ericaceae sp.), and less common plants such as Ceanothus americanus. Habitat This group of Lepidoptera occupies pine barrens, woodlands dominated by pitch pine (Pinus rigida) and scrub oak (Quercus ilicifolia) (Sperduto and Nichols 2004). Some species also occur in oak‐pine woodlands composed of a dense scrub oak understory and greater canopy closure. For a detailed habitat description refer to the pine barrens habitat profile.
