Węgierska 50/3 38-300 Gorlice, Poland, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Until now twenty-six species have been recorded for the fauna of Sphingidae (Lepidoptera) in Armenia. The speciesAkbesia davidii OBERTHÜR is new to the fauna of Armenia. It was found in the vicinity of Sjunik (Southern Armenia). New data onthe distribution of the hawkmonths previously reported from Armenia is presented. KEY WORDS: Lepidoptera, Sphingidae, Akbesia davidii, new records, Armenia. Introduction Sphingidae are one of the few lepidopteran groups to have been well inventoried and documented on every continent. To date, more than 1,400 species have been described all over the world(K AWAHARA & all. 2009). Out of 1,000, 72 species are distributed in western Palaearctic region (PITTAWAY 1993), 30 species of hawk months have been recorded in Georgia and neighbouring countries (DIDMANIDZE & all. 2013). Twenty- six out of the aforementioned 72 species have been found in Armenia so far. The subfamilies Sphinginae, Smerinthinae and Macroglossinae consist of 4, 5, and 17 species respectively.Two species Hyles hippophanes and Proserpinus proserpina are listed in the Red Book of Animals of the Republic of Armenia (AGHASYAN & KALASHYAN 2010). NEW MOTH SPECIES AKBESIA DAVIDII OBERTHÜR, 1884 RECORDED IN ARMENIA […] 49 However, the invertebrate fauna of Armenia has been insufficiently and irregularly researched. Entomofauna publications are extremely rare. Most studies were conducted in the twentieth century and relate mainly to beetles and butterflies. Therefore, in our research we try to update the records on the distribution of Sphingidae in Armenia. Materials and methods The results of a joint lepidopterological expedition to Armenia, which took place from the 29th of May till the 11th of June 2014 are presented below. A hypothesis that A. davidii should occur in Armenia was adopted, based on the occurrence of this species in Georgia and neighbouring countries (DIDMANIDZE & all. 2013). The research material was collected by light trapping at night, netting by day, and looking for caterpillars in the daytime. Three different light traps were used for collecting material during the 11 nights of research, except for two nights. The recorded species are presented in the results section. List of the visited Armenian locations: Aygedzor – Prov. Sjunik, 9 km N of Meghri, 38°58’42,7 N / 46°12’30,9 E, 1110 m Dashtakar – Prov. Ararat, 2 km NE of Wedi, 39°35’12,8 N / 44°45’08,9 E, 950 m Hovk – Prov. Tawusz, 18 km NE of Dilidżan, 40°47’34,1 N / 45°03’37,7 E, 840 m Noravank Monastery – Prov.

The insects arrived in small quantities due to the rain and air temperature, which was lower than usual for that time of the year. Akbesia davidii is a local species, which often occurs in rocky, hilly areas with scattered trees and bushes. Imago is generally mainly active after midnight. They have beensporadically reported from southern Turkey, northern Syria, northern Israel, western Jordan, south-eastern, north-eastern Iraq, south-eastern Republic of Georgia, northern Iran (Alborz Mountains) the Zagros Mountains of western Iran N( AUMANN & ZOLOTUHIN 2000, PITTAWAY 1997-2015). Probably winters in the pupal stage. Its larvae feed on Pistacia atlantica and Pistacia palestina (FREINA & GECK 2003, MÜLLER & all. 2005).

It is just a matter of time for the number to increase to thirty. In the future, the focus should be put on finding other hawkmoth species that have not been confirmed in Armenia but occur in the neighbouring countries:Daphnis nerii NEW MOTH SPECIES AKBESIA DAVIDII OBERTHÜR, 1884 RECORDED IN ARMENIA […] 53 (LINNAEUS, 1758), Hyles gallii (ROTTEMBURG, 1775) and Hemaris croatica (ESPER, 1800).

    Mitochondrial lineage sorting in action – historical biogeography of the Hyles euphorbiae complex (Sphingidae, Lepidoptera) in Italy Mende and Hundsdoerfer Mende and Hundsdoerfer BMC Evolutionary Biology 2013, 13:83 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/13/83 Mende and Hundsdoerfer BMC Evolutionary Biology 2013, 13:83 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/13/83 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Mitochondrial lineage sorting in action – historical biogeography of the Hyles euphorbiae complex (Sphingidae, Lepidoptera) in Italy Michael B Mende1,2* and Anna K Hundsdoerfer1,2 Abstract Background: Mitochondrial genes are among the most commonly used markers in studies of species’ phylogeography and to draw conclusions about taxonomy. The Hyles euphorbiae complex (HEC) comprises six distinct mitochondrial lineages in the Mediterranean region, of which one exhibits a cryptic disjunct distribution. The predominant mitochondrial lineage in most of Europe, euphorbiae, is also present on Malta; however, it is nowadays strangely absent from Southern Italy and Sicily, where it is replaced by 'italica'. A separate biological entity in Italy is further corroborated by larval colour patterns with a congruent, confined suture zone along the Northern Apennines. By means of historic DNA extracted from museum specimens, we aimed to investigate the evolution of the mitochondrial demographic structure of the HEC in Italy and Malta throughout the Twentieth Century. Results: At the beginning of the Twentieth Century, the European mainland lineages were also present at a moderate frequency in Southern Italy and Sicily. The proportion of 'italica' then steadily increased in this area from below 60 percent to near fixation in about 120 years. Thus, geographical sorting of mitochondrial lineages in the HEC was not as complete then as the current demography suggests.

Prof. Moraes Rego, s/n, Cidade Universitária, 50670-901, Recife, Pernambuco, Brasil. E-mail:[email protected] ABSTRACT: The caatinga, a thorn-shrub succulent savannah, is located in Northeastern Brazil and characterized by a short and irregular rainy season and a severe dry season. Insects are only abundant during the rainy months, displaying a strong seasonal pat- tern. Here we present data from a yearlong Sphingidae survey undertaken in the reserve Estação Ecológica do Seridó, located in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Hawkmoths were collected once a month during two subsequent new moon nights, between 18.00h and 05.00h, attracted with a 160-watt mercury vapor light. A total of 593 specimens belonging to 20 species and 14 genera were col- lected. Neogene dynaeus, Callionima grisescens, and Hyles euphorbiarum were the most abundant species, together comprising up to 82.2% of the total number of specimens collected. These frequent species are residents of the caatinga of Rio Grande do Norte. The rare Sphingidae in this study, Pseudosphinx tetrio, Isognathus australis, and Cocytius antaeus, are migratory species for the caatinga.

T readaway, Entomologie II, Forschungsinstitut Senckenberg, Senckenberganlage 25, D-60325 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Abstract: This publication covers all Sphingidae known from the Philippines at this time in the form of an annotated checklist. (A concise checklist of the species can be found in Table 4, page 120.) Distribution maps are included as well as 18 colour plates covering all but one species. Where no specimens of a particular spe­ cies from the Philippines were available to us, illustrations are given of specimens from outside the Philippines. In total we have listed 117 species (with 5 additional subspecies where more than one subspecies of a species exists in the Philippines). Four tables are provided: 1) a breakdown of the number of species and endemic species/subspecies for each subfamily, tribe and genus of Philippine Sphingidae; 2) an evaluation of the number of species as well as endemic species/subspecies per island for the nine largest islands of the Philippines plus one small island group for comparison; 3) an evaluation of the Sphingidae endemicity for each of Vane-Wright’s (1990) faunal regions. From these tables it can be readily deduced that the highest species counts can be encountered on the islands of Palawan (73 species), Luzon (72), Mindanao, Leyte and Negros (62 each).

  • Hyles Hippophaes
    Report under the Article 17 of the Habitats Directive European Environment Period 2007-2012 Agency European Topic Centre on Biological Diversity Hyles hippophaes Annex IV Priority No Species group Arthropods Regions Alpine, Black Sea, Continental, Mediterranean, Steppic The seathorn hawk-moth (Hyles hippophaes) is a species of moth which is found in nearly all countries in between Spain and France on the one side and China on the other side. This species occurs in three different geographical regions. In the Continental, Black Sea and Mediterranean bioregion the status has been assessed as ‘unknown’ due to a lack of data from France, Italy, Greece and Bulgaria. In the Alpine and Steppic bioregion its status has been assessed as unfavourable-inadequate (improving from unfavourable-bad and Romania - new country and new bioregion). A huge lack of data from the three countries makes a proper assessment of this species’ status hardly possible. The same accounts for the IUCN which has labeled this species’ conservation status with ‘Data Deficient’.
