In ihrer systematischen Stellung sind diese Gruppen umstritten. Speidel (1981) faßt nach Berücksichtigung der Puppenmorphologie neuerdings alle Arten der Unter­ familie Nymphulinae und der Familie Acentropidae unter dem Namen Acentropinae zu einer Unterfamilie der Pyraustiden zusammen. Die Determination bereitet bei den in der DDR vorkommenden Arten im frischen Zustand keine Schwierigkeiten. Artenbestand Nach Auswertung faunistischer Literatur, der Sammelergebnisse verschiedener Lepidopterologen, denen ich an dieser Stelle für die Zustellung ihres Datenmaterials herzlich danken möchte, und eigener Sammeltätigkeit verteilen sich die acht Arten auf die einzelnen Bezirke der Republik folgendermaßen: DOI: 10.21248/contrib.entomoL38.1.169-182 ©www.senckenberg.de/; download www.contributions-to-entomology.org/ 170 Rin n h o fe r , G.: Insektenfauna der DDR: Lepidoptera Tabelle 1 Nymphulinae Schoenobiinae 15 O O PP O W P K SCH BLN NBG MA HA ERF Acentropidae Ph Ph P o 0 GO LPZ KMS P Bezirke 1 N . nymphaeata + + + + + + + + + + + + + 13 2 N. stagnata + + + + + + + + _ 1_ + + + 12 3 G. lemnata + + + + + + + + + + + + + + 14 4 P. stratiotata + + + + + + + + + + + + + 13 5 Sch. gigantellus + + + + + + + 9 6 Sch. forficellus + + + + + + + + + + + + + 13 7 D. mucronella + + + + + + + + + 9 8 A. niveus + + + + + + + + + + + 11 8 Arten 8 7 8 7 7 8 5 7 8 5 7 1 2 6 8 Bis auf zwei Arten — Schoenobius gigantellus und Donacaula mucronella — sind die Vertreter dieser Sehmetterlingsgruppe nahezu gleichmäßig über das gesamte Gebiet der DDR verbreitet, natürlich mit den erwartungsgemäßen Häufungen in wasser­ reichen Gegenden. Bei intensiver Nachsuche dürften alle acht Arten in sämtlichen Bezirken nachzuweisen sein, denn stehende Gewässer mit Ufervegetation gibt es auch in den Bezirken Suhl und Leipzig, die mit einer bzw. zwei festgestellten Arten extrem unterpräsentiert sind.

  • The Maria Curie-Skłodowska University Botanical Garden in Lublin As a Refuge of the Moths (Lepidoptera: Heterocera) Within the City
    Acta Biologica 23/2016 | www.wnus.edu.pl/ab | DOI: 10.18276/ab.2016.23-02 | strony 15–34 The Maria Curie-Skłodowska University Botanical Garden in Lublin as a refuge of the moths (Lepidoptera: Heterocera) within the city Łukasz Dawidowicz,1 Halina Kucharczyk2 Department of Zoology, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, Akademicka 19, 20-033 Lublin, Poland 1 e-mail: [email protected] 2 e-mail: [email protected] Keywords biodiversity, urban fauna, faunistics, city, species composition, rare species, conservation Abstract In 2012 and 2013, 418 species of moths at total were recorded in the Botanical Garden of the Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin. The list comprises 116 species of Noctuidae (26.4% of the Polish fauna), 116 species of Geometridae (28.4% of the Polish fauna) and 63 species of other Macrolepidoptera representatives (27.9% of the Polish fauna). The remaining 123 species were represented by Microlepidoptera. Nearly 10% of the species were associated with wetland habitats, what constitutes a surprisingly large proportion in such an urbanised area. Comparing the obtained data with previous studies concerning Polish urban fauna of Lepidoptera, the moths assemblages in the Botanical Garden were the most similar to the one from the Natolin Forest Reserve which protects the legacy of Mazovian forests. Several recorded moths appertain to locally and rarely encountered species, as Stegania cararia, Melanthia procellata, Pasiphila chloerata, Eupithecia haworthiata, Horisme corticata, Xylomoia graminea, Polychrysia moneta. In the light of the conducted studies, the Botanical Garden in Lublin stands out as quite high biodiversity and can be regarded as a refuge for moths within the urban limits of Lublin.

Abstract Additions, deletions and corrections are made to the Irish checklist of butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera). Elachista biatomella (Stainton, 1848) is added to the Irish list. The total number of confirmed Irish species of Lepidoptera now stands at 1480. Key words: Lepidoptera, additions, deletions, corrections, Irish list, Elachista biatomella Introduction Bond, Nash and O’Connor (2006) provided a checklist of the Irish Lepidoptera. Since its publication, many new discoveries have been made and are reported here. In addition, several deletions have been made. A concise and updated checklist is provided. The following abbreviations are used in the text: BM(NH) – The Natural History Museum, London; NMINH – National Museum of Ireland, Natural History, Dublin. The total number of confirmed Irish species now stands at 1480, an addition of 68 since Bond et al. (2006). Taxonomic arrangement As a result of recent systematic research, it has been necessary to replace the arrangement familiar to British and Irish Lepidopterists by the Fauna Europaea [FE] system used by Karsholt 60 Bulletin of the Irish Biogeographical Society No. 36 (2012) and Razowski, which is widely used in continental Europe.

Ecology of aquatic and semi-aquatic Lepidoptera Krzysztof Pabis* Department of Invertebrate Zoology and Hydrobiology, University of Lodz, Banacha 12/16, 90-237 Lodz, Poland Abstract – This paper reviews the current knowledge on the ecology of aquatic and semi-aquatic moths, and discusses possible pre-adaptations of the moths to the aquatic environment. It also highlights major gaps in our understanding of this group of aquatic insects. Aquatic and semi-aquatic moths represent only a tiny fraction of the total lepidopteran diversity. Only about 0.5% of 165,000 known lepidopterans are aquatic; mostly in the preimaginal stages. Truly aquatic species can be found only among the Crambidae, Cosmopterigidae and Erebidae, while semi-aquatic forms associated with amphibious or marsh plants are known in thirteen other families. These lepidopterans have developed various strategies and adaptations that have allowed them to stay under water or in close proximity to water. Problems of respiratory adaptations, locomotor abilities, influence of predators and parasitoids, as well as feeding preferences are discussed. Nevertheless, the poor knowledge on their biology, life cycles, genomics and phylogenetic relationships preclude the generation of fully comprehensive evolutionary scenarios. Keywords: Lepidoptera / Acentropinae / caterpillars / freshwater / herbivory Résumé – Que fait une mite sous l'eau? Écologie des lépidoptères aquatiques et semi-aquatiques.

Alterra-rapport 1367 Characterisation of pristine Polish river systems and their use as reference conditions for Dutch river systems Rebi Nijboer Piet Verdonschot Andrzej Piechocki Grzegorz Tończyk Małgorzata Klukowska Alterra-rapport 1367 Alterra, Wageningen 2006 ABSTRACT Nijboer, Rebi, Piet Verdonschot, Andrzej Piechocki, Grzegorz Tończyk & Małgorzata Klukowska, 2006. Characterisation of pristine Polish river systems and their use as reference conditions for Dutch river systems. Wageningen, Alterra, Alterra-rapport 1367. 221 blz.; 13 figs.; 53 tables.; 26 refs. A central feature of the European Water Framework Directive are the reference conditions. The ecological quality status is determined by calculating the distance between the present situation and the reference conditions. To describe reference conditions the natural variation of biota in pristine water bodies should be measured. Because pristine water bodies are not present in the Netherlands anymore, water bodies (springs, streams, rivers and oxbow lakes) in central Poland were investigated. Macrophytes and macroinvertebrates were sampled and environmental variables were measured. The water bodies appeared to have a high biodiversity and a good ecological quality.

Two full generations of Cataclysta lemnata were recorded in a post-glacial lake in central Poland. The presence of pupae in mid-September demonstrated possibility of occurrence of the third partial generation at the beginning of autumn. This study also includes information on copulation time, egg laying, and tube building by caterpillars based on the field and laboratory observations. Caterpillar host plants were investigated in the laboratory. Significant differences in caterpillar densities were recorded between the macrophyte zone (1.6 (1SD: 1.8) ind./0.25m2) and the open waters of the lake (0.1 (1SD: 0.3) ind./0.25m2). Key words: Acentropinae, Lemnaceae, macrophytes, host plants. Only a small number of Lepidoptera is associated frame (50 cm length of each side, 0.25 m2 catching area). with aquatic environment. The most important Two sampling areas were distinguished: coastal vegeta- group of aquatic moths is Acentropinae (Cram- tion zone and open waters of the lake. Ten random sam- ples (frames) were collected in each of those two areas, bidae) with more than 700 species and worldwide during each of 16 field trips.
