We explore the influence of each gene region on the support given to each node of the most parsimonious tree derived from a combined analysis of all three genes using Partitioned Bremer Support. We also explore the influence of assuming equal weights for all characters in the combined analysis by investigating the stability of clades to different transition/transversion weighting schemes. We find many strongly supported and stable clades in the Nymphalinae. We are also able to identify ‘rogue’

  • Perceptual Range, Targeting Ability, and Visual Habitat Detection by Greater Fritillary Butterfliesspeyeria Cybele (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) and Speyeria Atlantis

China, and 4Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Subject Editor: Phyllis Weintraub Received 4 February 2019; Editorial decision 26 May 2019 Abstract Butterflies are widely invoked as model organisms in studies of metapopulation and dispersal processes. Integral to such investigations are understandings of perceptual range; the maximum distance at which organisms are able to detect patches of suitable habitat. To infer perceptual range, researchers have released butterflies at varying distances from habitat patches and observed their subsequent flight behaviors. It is often assumed that butterflies rely on visual senses for habitat detection; however, this assumption has not been explicitly investigated. Here, we assess the extent and sensory determinants of perceptual range for the great spangled fritillary (Speyeria cybele (Fabricius, 1775)) and Atlantis fritillary (Speyeria atlantis (W.H. Edwards, 1862)). This was achieved by experimentally releasing butterflies over open water at various distances from a lake island, representing an isolated habitat patch in a dichotomous habitat-matrix landscape.

  • The Status of Silvery Blue Subspecies (Glaucopsyche Lygdamus Lygdamus and G
    Journal of the Lepidopterists' SOciety 45(4), 1991, 272-290 THE STATUS OF SILVERY BLUE SUBSPECIES (GLAUCOPSYCHE LYGDAMUS LYGDAMUS AND G. L. COUPERI: LYCAENIDAE) IN NEW YORK ROBERT DIRIG Bailey Hortorium Herbarium, 462 Mann Library, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853 AND JOHN F. CRYAN New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, 1 Hunterspoint Plaza, 47-40 Twenty-first Street, Long Island City, New York 11101 ABSTRACT. Two subspecies of the Silvery Blue (Glaucopsyche lygdamus, Lycaeni­ dae) are recorded from New York. The nominate subspecies was reported from central New York through 1969, but has not been seen from 1970-1991. Adults flew in May, and larvae fed on native Wood Vetch (Vicia caroliniana, Fabaceae) on steep, naturally unstable, southwest-facing shale banks. Glaucopsyche lygdamus couperi is reported for the first time from northern New York (and Vermont), where its larvae feed on planted or naturalized Tufted Vetch (Vicia cracca), and adults fly in June on weedy road banks. This butterfly is spreading south using vetch-lined highway corridors. The two entities exhibit marked ecological and phenotypic contrasts in New York. Additional key words: Fabaceae, Vicia cracca, Vicia caroliniana, range expansion, rare species. The Silvery Blue, Glaucopsyche Iygdamus (Doubleday) (Lycaeni­ dae), has been considered rare and local in New York, where the nominate subspecies reaches its northern limit (Klots 1951, Shapiro 1974, Opler & Krizek 1984). Literature references and specimens are scanty, and almost nothing has been published about its natural history in New York. Scudder (1889) said that ssp. Iygdamus was "known from the upper waters of the Susquehanna [River]," but gave no details.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. We describe a rearing protocol that allowed us to raise the threatened butterfly, Argynnis diana (Nymphalidae), while bypassing the first instar overwintering diapause. We compared the survival of offspring reared under this protocol from field-collected A. diana females from North Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee. Larvae were reared in the lab on three phylogenetically distinct species of Southern Appalachian violets (Viola sororia, V. pubescens,andV. pedata). We assessed larval survival in A. diana to the last instar, pupation, and adulthood. Males reared in captivity emerged significantly earlier than females. An ANOVA revealed no evidence of host plant preference by A. diana toward three native violet species. We suggest that restoration of A. diana habitat which promotes a wide array of larval and adult host plants, is urgently needed to conserve this imperiled species into the future. 1.

  • 2017 City of York Biodiversity Action Plan
    CITY OF YORK Local Biodiversity Action Plan 2017 City of York Local Biodiversity Action Plan - Executive Summary What is biodiversity and why is it important? Biodiversity is the variety of all species of plant and animal life on earth, and the places in which they live. Biodiversity has its own intrinsic value but is also provides us with a wide range of essential goods and services such as such as food, fresh water and clean air, natural flood and climate regulation and pollination of crops, but also less obvious services such as benefits to our health and wellbeing and providing a sense of place. We are experiencing global declines in biodiversity, and the goods and services which it provides are consistently undervalued. Efforts to protect and enhance biodiversity need to be significantly increased. The Biodiversity of the City of York The City of York area is a special place not only for its history, buildings and archaeology but also for its wildlife. York Minister is an 800 year old jewel in the historical crown of the city, but we also have our natural gems as well. York supports species and habitats which are of national, regional and local conservation importance including the endangered Tansy Beetle which until 2014 was known only to occur along stretches of the River Ouse around York and Selby; ancient flood meadows of which c.9-10% of the national resource occurs in York; populations of Otters and Water Voles on the River Ouse, River Foss and their tributaries; the country’s most northerly example of extensive lowland heath at Strensall Common; and internationally important populations of wetland birds in the Lower Derwent Valley.

Mead (1852-1936) visited central Colorado from June to September 1871 to collect butterflies. Considerable effort has been spent trying to determine the identities of the butterflies he collected for his future father-in-law William Henry Edwards, and where he collected them. Brown (1956) tried to deduce his itinerary based on the specimens and the few letters etc. available to him then. Brown (1964-1987) designated lectotypes and neotypes for the names of the butterflies that William Henry Edwards described, including 24 based on Mead’s specimens. Brown & Brown (1996) published many later-discovered letters written by Mead describing his travels and collections. Calhoun (2013) purchased Mead’s journal and published Mead’s brief journal descriptions of his collecting efforts and his travels by stage and horseback and walking, and Calhoun commented on some of the butterflies he collected (especially lectotypes). Calhoun (2015a) published an abbreviated summary of Mead’s travels using those improved locations from the journal etc., and detailed the type localities of some of the butterflies named from Mead specimens.
