Abstract: A catalog of all type specimens preserved in the Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales “Bernardino Rivadavia,” and a checklist of species of Argentinean Sphingidae kept in the museum, are presented. Ten nominal species, nine from Argentina and one from Perú, are represented by 13 type specimens. The checklist is based on the examination of 1724 specimens. Numerous new records for most species are offered, with expansion of the distribution of 25 species to new provinces.

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.

  • 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.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. This study evaluated the seasonality of Sphingidae spp. in two areas of savannah, in the eastern Brazilian Amazon, sampled for one year (June, 2014 through May, 2015) with the aid of Pennsylvania light traps placed at four sampling points. Data on fauna were obtained through the following parameters: abundance (N), richness (S), composition, Shannon diversity and uniformity indices (H’ and U’), and the Berger-Parker (BP) dominance index. Richness estimates were calculated using Bootstrap, Chao1, ACE, Jackknife 1, and Jackknife2 estimators. The Pearson correlation was also used to analyze the effect of climatic variables such as rainfall, temperature, and relative humidity on richness and abundance. The result for the parameters analyzed during the entire sampling period was N= 374, S= 34, H’= 2.59, U= 0.733 and BP= 0.235. The estimation of richness showed that between 63% and 87% of expected species were collected (Bootstrap estimated 39 species and Chao1 estimated 54). The most representative species were: Isognathus caricae (Linnaeus, 1758) (N= 88), Enyo lugubris lugubris (Linnaeus, 1771) (N= 58), Isognathus menechus (Boisduval, [1875]) (N= 46) and Cocytius duponchel (Poey, 1832) (N= 44), with 54% of the sample containing species considered rare divided into 298 male and 76 female specimens.

A few species were captured over flowers (mainly Enyo lugubris latipennis R. & J. and Xylophanes tersa D ru r y ). Only one species ( Protambulyx strigilis L.) was also taken as a larva (Photo 2-3), several times on Spondias dulcis (Anacardiaceae). A total of 2240 specimens comprising 38 species were noted (representing ca.

  • Lepidoptera: Sphingidae
    ACTA AMAZONICA http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/1809-4392201704721 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Diversity patterns of hawkmoths (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) in the canopy of an ombrophilous forest in the central Amazon, Brazil Gilcélia Melo LOURIDO1*, Catarina da Silva MOTTA†, Márlon Breno GRAÇA1, José Albertino RAFAEL1 1 Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia (INPA), Coordenação de Biodiversidade (COBIO), Manaus, Amazonas, Brasil † In memoriam * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT Sphingidae attracted to light were systematically collected in an Amazonian forest canopy. Sampling occurred at a height of 34 m in an upland primary rainforest plateau in the Cueiras River basin, located within the Experimental Station of Tropical Silviculture, Manaus municipality, Amazonas, Brazil. The hawkmoths were collected using a vertical white sheet illuminated by a 250 W mixed mercury light and a 20 W black-light (BLB) fluorescent tube. Monthly collections were carried out from January to December 2004, during three nights of lunar transition from third quarter moon to new moon between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. We sampled 1748 specimens, represented by 1485 males and 263 females, belonging to 52 species and 21 genera. Xylophanes comprised the highest number of species (seven), followed by Erinnyis, with six species. The most abundant species were Pseudosphinx tetrio (169 specimens), Pachylia darceta (162), Erinnyis ello ello (154), Isognathus excelsior (151) and Callionima parce (139). The species accumulation curve showed that the species richness tended to stabilize by the eighth month. We also observed that species composition altered significantly throughout the night period. All presented hawkmoth records are new for the canopy in the central Amazon.
