  • Karl Jordan: a Life in Systematics
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Kristin Renee Johnson for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History of SciencePresented on July 21, 2003. Title: Karl Jordan: A Life in Systematics Abstract approved: Paul Lawrence Farber Karl Jordan (1861-1959) was an extraordinarily productive entomologist who influenced the development of systematics, entomology, and naturalists' theoretical framework as well as their practice. He has been a figure in existing accounts of the naturalist tradition between 1890 and 1940 that have defended the relative contribution of naturalists to the modem evolutionary synthesis. These accounts, while useful, have primarily examined the natural history of the period in view of how it led to developments in the 193 Os and 40s, removing pre-Synthesis naturalists like Jordan from their research programs, institutional contexts, and disciplinary homes, for the sake of synthesis narratives. This dissertation redresses this picture by examining a naturalist, who, although often cited as important in the synthesis, is more accurately viewed as a man working on the problems of an earlier period. This study examines the specific problems that concerned Jordan, as well as the dynamic institutional, international, theoretical and methodological context of entomology and natural history during his lifetime. It focuses upon how the context in which natural history has been done changed greatly during Jordan's life time, and discusses the role of these changes in both placing naturalists on the defensive among an array of new disciplines and attitudes in science, and providing them with new tools and justifications for doing natural history. One of the primary intents of this study is to demonstrate the many different motives and conditions through which naturalists came to and worked in natural history.

    Proceedings of the United States National Museum SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION • WASHINGTON, D.C. Volume 123 1967 Number 3611 Butterflies of the New Genus Calystryma (Lycaenidae: Theclinae, Stryinonini) By William D. Field Associate Curator, Division of Lepidoptera Calystryma, new genus, contains 13 species, all of which are neo- tropical in distribution. Six of the included species are herein described as new and the rest are transferred to Calystryma from Thecla Fabricius, where they have resided ever since they were first described in spite of the fact that they belong to the Strymonini (forewing having 3 radial veins) not to the Theclini (forewing having 2 radial veins). I designate as type of the genus: Calystryma blora, new species. The name Calystryma is an arbitrary, euphonous com- bination of letters and I consider it to be of the feminine gender. Calystryma is closely related to Calycopis Scudder, differing chiefly in the form of the male and female genitalia. In the male genitalia the uncus is divided dorsally into two lateral elements that in lateral view are produced greatly near the middle, thus differing from Calycopis. Vesica of aedeagus with a single spine- like cornutus located at or near distal end of aedeagal shaft. Aedeagus lacking the ventral keel found in some Strymonini and nearly straight or sometimes upturned distally, with this end usually blunt, not sharply pointed as in Calycopis. Harpes differing from those of Calycopis in being separate along ventral margin, fused only at base or in one case (C. keta) fused for nearly one-half their lengths from base. This last species, however, has the Calystryma type of uncus 1 .

Melipotis indomita captured at sec.24T6SR12E, 4.2 mi.NE of Abita Springs, Louisiana. n = 145 The medium sized (40-55 mm wingspan) and sexually dimorphic noctuid species Melipotis indomita Walker (Fig.1.) belongs to a mostly neotropical genus. Richards (1939) reported 13 species of Melipotis to occur within the United States, 12 species due to northernly range extension or strays. The types of Melipotis are apparently mostly in the British Museum. Richard's investigation was based on material determined by William Schaus in the U.S. National Museum. M. indomita is somewhat variable in maculation in both sexes, as illustrated in the examples (Fig. 1). M. indomita is reported in literature to be larval pest on mesquite. Brown (1945) reported mesquite Prosopis juliflora var. glandulosa Cock (a large shrub or small tree) to occur at well established locations in extreme northwest Louisiana (Caddo and Bossier Parishes). M. indomita has also been touted as a biological Fig. 3. Parish records by this author. control of Mesquite.

The larvae of both feed on Lonchocarpus (Fabaceae). Pseudhapigia misericordia Dyar is moved to Hapigiodes as a new combination. Hapigiodes and Euhapigiodes are relatives of Hapigia, and would previously have been placed in the tribe Hemiceratini of Forbes, but comparison of adults and larvae of Hapigiodes, Euhapigiodes and Hapigia with Hemiceras yields the result that the Hemiceratini is polyphyletic. Thus, Hapigiini is erected as a new tribe of 9 genera, provisionally placed in the notodontid subfamily Heterocampinae. The larvae and adults of 8 hapigiine species from Costa Rica are figured, and their hostplants (all Fabaceae) are listed. These are the first life histories and food plants described for the Hapigiini.

    A GENERIC REVISION OF THE AMERICAN MOTHS OF THE SUBFAJSIILY IIYPENINAE, WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW GENERA AND SPECIES. Bj William Schaus. INTRODUCTION. No attempt has ever been made to classify the Hypenmae of tropical America. As the North American species have been worked out by the late Prof. J. B. Smith in Bulletin 48 of the United States National Museum, I have not revised them and have merely referred to the type-species of each genus; the genera had to be included in this paper as many of them contained species from the Neotropical region, while others might be represented when the Mexican fauna becomes better known. So much confusion has existed in regard to this subfamily that it was necessary to identify and key the genera in such a way that students would be able to follow a given classifica- tion. It has been necessary to use certain secondary sexual characters in order to facilitate the recognition of genera and species, but the key itself does not always explain the great differences existing in appar- ently aUied genera. In some few cases the venation varies in the same genus, sometimes in the one sex, sometimes between the males and females. For the facility of identification 41 new genera are described and 150 new species. Reference is made to all the Neo- tropical species described as Ilypeninac or apparently referable to that subfamily. The bulk of the known species arc represented in the national collection, to wliich I have added colored drawings of all of Walker's species at the British Museum and Oxford, also of Sir George Hampson's and Warren's which are not in the collection.

He became a champion of the study of the natural history of Colombia and through the museum, he established numerous connections with scientists and naturalists worldwide. Some rare Castniidae were among the numerous speci - mens of the fauna he traded with museums around the world. General information about Brother Apolinar María, the La Salle Museum, and the subspecies of Amauta hodeei (Cast- niidae) are provided here in an attempt to improve and stimulate the interest in such a re- markable naturalist and some rare and almost unknown species of the South American Fauna. One of these ssp. ( A. hodeei kruegeri ) is reported from Ecuador, thus increasing knowledge about its geographical distribution.
