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,

    Insect Egg Size and Shape Evolve with Ecology but Not Developmental Rate Samuel H

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-019-1302-4 Insect egg size and shape evolve with ecology but not developmental rate Samuel H. Church1,4*, Seth Donoughe1,3,4, Bruno A. S. de Medeiros1 & Cassandra G. Extavour1,2* Over the course of evolution, organism size has diversified markedly. Changes in size are thought to have occurred because of developmental, morphological and/or ecological pressures. To perform phylogenetic tests of the potential effects of these pressures, here we generated a dataset of more than ten thousand descriptions of insect eggs, and combined these with genetic and life-history datasets. We show that, across eight orders of magnitude of variation in egg volume, the relationship between size and shape itself evolves, such that previously predicted global patterns of scaling do not adequately explain the diversity in egg shapes. We show that egg size is not correlated with developmental rate and that, for many insects, egg size is not correlated with adult body size. Instead, we find that the evolution of parasitoidism and aquatic oviposition help to explain the diversification in the size and shape of insect eggs. Our study suggests that where eggs are laid, rather than universal allometric constants, underlies the evolution of insect egg size and shape. Size is a fundamental factor in many biological processes. The size of an 526 families and every currently described extant hexapod order24 organism may affect interactions both with other organisms and with (Fig. 1a and Supplementary Fig. 1). We combined this dataset with the environment1,2, it scales with features of morphology and physi- backbone hexapod phylogenies25,26 that we enriched to include taxa ology3, and larger animals often have higher fitness4.

    Psyche 87:121

    LIFE HISTORY OF D YSODIA SICA (LEPIDOPTERA: THYRIDIDAE) IN PANAMA' Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute P.O. Box 2072, Balboa, Panama Thyrididae is a widespread tropical and subtropical family of moths, generally thought to be related to the Pyralidae, from which they differ in a number of ways (see Whalley, 1971). Possibly the group is not monophyletic, but so little is known concerning the immature stages, that few conclusions can be reached regarding the relationships among the four subfamilies. Dysodia (Thyrididae: Pachythyrinae) is a pantropical genus found on all continents except Australia (Whalley, 1971). Aside from scattered foodplant records for several species, little is known about the immature stages of any of the approximately thirty species. The present paper describes the egg, larvae, pupa, and larval behavior of Dysodia sica Druce (Figure 1) reared on Barro Colorado Island (BCI), Panama, during May through August 1977 and 1980. Seven other species of Dysodia are listed for BCI by Forbes (1942). Adults of Dysodia spp. fly during early evening, and are seen frequently at lights on BCI. At rest, the wings are horizontal to the substrate, with the fore wings almost completely covering the hind wings (Figure 2). This resting posture, triangular in outline, is also common among many pyralid moths. When alert or about to fly, the fore wings are drawn forwards, exposing the hind wings, and bringing the markings of the fore and hind wings into alignment (Figure 3). The two "windows" on each hind wing show just behind the posterior margin of the fore wings. The fore wings are curved longitudinally so as to be somewhat concave above.

    AN ILLUSTRATED KEY TO THE AMARANTHACEAE OF ALBERTA Compiled and writen by Lorna Allen & Linda Kershaw April 2019 © Linda J. Kershaw & Lorna Allen This key was compiled using informaton primarily from Moss (1983), Douglas et. al. (1998a [Amaranthaceae], 1998b [Chenopodiaceae]) and the Flora North America Associaton (2008). Taxonomy follows VASCAN (Brouillet, 2015). Please let us know if there are ways in which the key can be improved. The 2015 S-ranks of rare species (S1; S1S2; S2; S2S3; SU, according to ACIMS, 2015) are noted in superscript (S1;S2;SU) afer the species names. For more details go to the ACIMS web site.

    New Records of Pollinators and Other Insects Associated with Arizona Milkweed, Asclepias Angustifolia, at Four Sites in Southeastern Arizona

    Journal of Pollination Ecology, 27(1), 2021, pp 1-24 NEW RECORDS OF POLLINATORS AND OTHER INSECTS ASSOCIATED WITH ARIZONA MILKWEED, ASCLEPIAS ANGUSTIFOLIA, AT FOUR SITES IN SOUTHEASTERN ARIZONA Robert A. Behrstock Naturewide Images, 10359 S Thicket Place, Hereford, AZ 85615 U.S.A. Abstract—Asclepias angustifolia is a Mexican milkweed that barely enters the U.S.A. Its pollinators and other insect visitors have not been investigated. During 2018 and 2019, insect visitors were photographed at a native population and three gardens in and near the Huachuca Mountains, Southeastern Arizona. A total of 216 site visits produced at least 369 species of insects in seven orders. Images revealed 140 potential pollinators with a preponderance of Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, and Diptera. Orders of insects are discussed, as are flowering phenology, potential pollinators in functional groups, introduced insects, and the value of A. angustifolia for monarch butterflies and other insects in pollinator gardens and in planting palettes created for restoration sites. Keywords: Sky Island, Madrean Pine-Oak Woodland, monarch butterfly, Huachuca Mountains, gardening, restoration INTRODUCTION milkweed, A. linaria Cavanillies, that produces higher concentrations of cardenolide toxins and greater amounts of North American milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) provide defensive latex (Pegram & Melkonoff 2019). Planting nectar to an unusually large diversity of insects, making them milkweeds is becoming a widespread practice aimed at important members of existing ecosystems and valuable increasing north- or southbound cohorts of the monarch’s additions to sites benefiting from a broad spectrum of complicated multi-generational migration; however, some pollinators (Ollerton et al. 2019, Tallamy 2007). For authors (e.g., Inamine et al.

For more information on the dataset, please see Church et al. 2018: “A database of egg size and shape from more than 6,700 insect species” (preprint).
