  • Why Is Madagascar Special?
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE doi:10.1111/evo.12578 Why is Madagascar special? The extraordinarily slow evolution of pelican spiders (Araneae, Archaeidae) Hannah M. Wood,1,2 Rosemary G. Gillespie,3 Charles E. Griswold,4 and Peter C. Wainwright1 1Department of Evolution and Ecology, University of California, Davis, Davis, California 95616 2E-mail: [email protected] 3Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management, University of California, Berkeley, Berkeley, California 94720 4Entomology Department, California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco, California 94118 Received May 2, 2014 Accepted November 19, 2014 Although Madagascar is an ancient fragment of Gondwana, the majority of taxa studied thus far appear to have reached the island through dispersal from Cenozoic times. Ancient lineages may have experienced a different history compared to more recent Cenozoic arrivals, as such lineages would have encountered geoclimatic shifts over an extended time period. The motivation for this study was to unravel the signature of diversification in an ancient lineage by comparing an area known for major geoclimatic upheavals (Madagascar) versus other areas where the environment has been relatively stable. Archaeid spiders are an ancient paleoendemic group with unusual predatory behaviors and spectacular trophic morphology that likely have been on Madagascar since its isolation. We examined disparities between Madagascan archaeids and their non-Madagascan relatives regarding timing of divergence, rates of trait evolution, and distribution patterns. Results reveal an increased rate of adaptive trait diversification in Madagascan archaeids. Furthermore, geoclimatic events in Madagascar over long periods of time may have facilitated high species richness due to montane refugia and stability, rainforest refugia, and also ecogeographic shifts, allowing for the accumulation of adaptive traits.

  • The Genus Acraea (Lepidoptera : Nymphalidae) - Peter Hendry
    The genus Acraea (Lepidoptera : Nymphalidae) - Peter Hendry With the recent migration to Australia of the Tawny Coster (Acraea terpsicore (Linnaeus, 1758)), (see Creature Feature this issue), I thought it might be timely to take a look at the genus worldwide. It must be noted that due to a misidentification A. terpsicore had long been known as A. violae and many references in the literature and on the web refer to it as A. violae. As with much of the Lepidoptera the genus is in a state of flux, and has long been split into the subgenera Acraea (Acraea) and Acraea (Actinote). The genus is placed in the tribe Acraeini and until Harvey (1991) placed it in the subfamily Heliconiinae it was listed in the subfamily Acraeinae. Recent molecular work has made changes and a current listing of the tribe Acraeini, by Niklas Wahlberg, is available at http://www.nymphalidae.net/Classification/Acraeini.htm. It shows members of the old subgenus Acraea (Actinote) being placed in the genus Actinote, and the old subgenus Acraea (Acraea) becoming the genus Acraea with a subgenus Acraea (Bematistes). It also lists several Acraea as unplaced. This may further change as some believe the subgenus Acraea (Bematistes) will move to the genus Bematistes. The genus is primarily Afrotropical with only four species occurring outside this region, these being, Acraea andromacha (Fig. 1) A. meyeri (Fig. 10) A. moluccana and A. terpsicore. A fifth species the Yellow Coster Acraea (Actinote) issoria is now referred to the genus Actinote. Like many of the Nymphalidae the larvae feed on plants which contain cyanogens making the larvae and adults poisonous to predators.

(SUBGENUS SPEYERIA) (NYMPHALIDAE) FROM WASHINGTON DAVID G. JAMES Department of Entomology, Washington State University, Irrigated Agriculture Research and Extension Center, 24105 North Bunn Road, Prosser, Washington 99350; email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Comparative illustrations and notes on morphology and biology are provided on the immature stages of five Arg- ynnis spp. (A. cybele leto, A. coronis simaetha, A. zerene picta, A. egleis mcdunnoughi, A. hydaspe rhodope) found in the Pacific Northwest. High quality images allowed separation of the five species in most of their immature stages. Sixth instars of all species possessed a fleshy, eversible osmeterium-like gland located ventrally between the head and first thoracic segment. Dormant first in- star larvae of all species exposed to summer-like conditions (25 ± 0.5º C and continuous illumination), 2.0–2.5 months after hatch- ing, did not feed and died within 6–9 days, indicating the larvae were in diapause. Overwintering of first instars for ~ 80 days in dark- ness at 5 ± 0.5º C, 75 ± 5% r.h. resulted in minimal mortality. Subsequent exposure to summer-like conditions (25 ± 0.5º C and continuous illumination) resulted in breaking of dormancy and commencement of feeding in all species within 2–5 days. Durations of individual instars and complete post-larval feeding development durations were similar for A. coronis, A. zerene, A. egleis and A.

Beitr. 27/1 297-310 16.8.1995 The Eusynthemis guttata (SELYS) group of species from Australia (Odonata: Synthemistidae) G. THEISCHINGER Abstract: What was hitherto known as Eusynthemis guttata (SELYS) is found to be a group of sibling species. The complex includes E. gultata (SELYS), E. aurolineata (TILLYARD) (formerly E. guttata aurolineata) and a previously undescribed species. These three species together with Eusynthemis barbarae (MOULDS) transferred from Choristhemis TILLYARD in this paper, and a previously undescribed species very close to E. barbarae, are considered to represent the Eusynthemis guttata (SELYS) group of spe- cies. The two new species are described as Eusynlhemis tillyardi sp. n. and E. tenera sp. n., diagnostic characters and distributional data are given for all species of the group, and the zoogeography of the group is discussed. Metathemis guttata melanosoma TILLYARD is considered to be a junior synonym of E. aurolineata (TILLYARD). Key words: Eusynthemis guttata group; Australia. Introduction SELYS (1871) described Synthemis guttata from "Nouvelle-Hollande" (= Australia). Under the same name, MARTIN (1901, 1907) reported the species from Victoria. Even though FÖRSTER (1903) established Eusynthemis (as a subgenus of Synthemis SELYS) based on Synthemis brevistyla SELYS, TILLYARD (1910) created the new genus Me- tathemis for Synthemis brevistyla SELYS, S.
