  • Insect Survey of Four Longleaf Pine Preserves
    A SURVEY OF THE MOTHS, BUTTERFLIES, AND GRASSHOPPERS OF FOUR NATURE CONSERVANCY PRESERVES IN SOUTHEASTERN NORTH CAROLINA Stephen P. Hall and Dale F. Schweitzer November 15, 1993 ABSTRACT Moths, butterflies, and grasshoppers were surveyed within four longleaf pine preserves owned by the North Carolina Nature Conservancy during the growing season of 1991 and 1992. Over 7,000 specimens (either collected or seen in the field) were identified, representing 512 different species and 28 families. Forty-one of these we consider to be distinctive of the two fire- maintained communities principally under investigation, the longleaf pine savannas and flatwoods. An additional 14 species we consider distinctive of the pocosins that occur in close association with the savannas and flatwoods. Twenty nine species appear to be rare enough to be included on the list of elements monitored by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (eight others in this category have been reported from one of these sites, the Green Swamp, but were not observed in this study). Two of the moths collected, Spartiniphaga carterae and Agrotis buchholzi, are currently candidates for federal listing as Threatened or Endangered species. Another species, Hemipachnobia s. subporphyrea, appears to be endemic to North Carolina and should also be considered for federal candidate status. With few exceptions, even the species that seem to be most closely associated with savannas and flatwoods show few direct defenses against fire, the primary force responsible for maintaining these communities. Instead, the majority of these insects probably survive within this region due to their ability to rapidly re-colonize recently burned areas from small, well-dispersed refugia.

    Contributions Toward a Lepidoptera (Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, Thyrididae, Drepanoidea, Geometroidea, Mimalonoidea, Bombycoidea, Sphingoidea, & Noctuoidea) Biodiversity Inventory of the University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Lab Hugo L. Kons Jr. Last Update: June 2001 Abstract A systematic check list of 489 species of Lepidoptera collected in the University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Lab is presented, including 464 species in the superfamilies Drepanoidea, Geometroidea, Mimalonoidea, Bombycoidea, Sphingoidea, and Noctuoidea. Taxa recorded in Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, and Thyrididae are also included. Moth taxa were collected at ultraviolet lights, bait, introduced Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum), and by netting specimens. A list of taxa recorded feeding on P. notatum is presented. Introduction The University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Laboratory (NATL) contains 40 acres of natural habitats maintained for scientific research, conservation, and teaching purposes. Habitat types present include hammock, upland pine, disturbed open field, cat tail marsh, and shallow pond. An active management plan has been developed for this area, including prescribed burning to restore the upland pine community and establishment of plots to study succession (http://csssrvr.entnem.ufl.edu/~walker/natl.htm). The site is a popular collecting locality for student and scientific collections. The author has done extensive collecting and field work at NATL, and two previous reports have resulted from this work, including: a biodiversity inventory of the butterflies (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea & Papilionoidea) of NATL (Kons 1999), and an ecological study of Hermeuptychia hermes (F.) and Megisto cymela (Cram.) in NATL habitats (Kons 1998). Other workers have posted NATL check lists for Ichneumonidae, Sphecidae, Tettigoniidae, and Gryllidae (http://csssrvr.entnem.ufl.edu/~walker/insect.htm).

  • CHECKLIST of WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea)
    WISCONSIN ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY SPECIAL PUBLICATION No. 6 JUNE 2018 CHECKLIST OF WISCONSIN MOTHS (Superfamilies Mimallonoidea, Drepanoidea, Lasiocampoidea, Bombycoidea, Geometroidea, and Noctuoidea) Leslie A. Ferge,1 George J. Balogh2 and Kyle E. Johnson3 ABSTRACT A total of 1284 species representing the thirteen families comprising the present checklist have been documented in Wisconsin, including 293 species of Geometridae, 252 species of Erebidae and 584 species of Noctuidae. Distributions are summarized using the six major natural divisions of Wisconsin; adult flight periods and statuses within the state are also reported. Examples of Wisconsin’s diverse native habitat types in each of the natural divisions have been systematically inventoried, and species associated with specialized habitats such as peatland, prairie, barrens and dunes are listed. INTRODUCTION This list is an updated version of the Wisconsin moth checklist by Ferge & Balogh (2000). A considerable amount of new information from has been accumulated in the 18 years since that initial publication. Over sixty species have been added, bringing the total to 1284 in the thirteen families comprising this checklist. These families are estimated to comprise approximately one-half of the state’s total moth fauna. Historical records of Wisconsin moths are relatively meager. Checklists including Wisconsin moths were compiled by Hoy (1883), Rauterberg (1900), Fernekes (1906) and Muttkowski (1907). Hoy's list was restricted to Racine County, the others to Milwaukee County. Records from these publications are of historical interest, but unfortunately few verifiable voucher specimens exist. Unverifiable identifications and minimal label data associated with older museum specimens limit the usefulness of this information. Covell (1970) compiled records of 222 Geometridae species, based on his examination of specimens representing at least 30 counties.

    ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Luke Elden Dodd The Graduate School University of Kentucky 2010 FOREST DISTURBANCE AFFECTS INSECT PREY AND THE ACTIVITY OF BATS IN DECIDUOUS FORESTS ____________________________________ ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION _____________________________________ A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the College of Agriculture at the University of Kentucky By Luke Elden Dodd Lexington, Kentucky Director: Dr. Lynne K. Rieske-Kinney, Professor of Entomology Lexington, Kentucky 2010 Copyright © Luke Elden Dodd 2010 ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION FOREST DISTURBANCE AFFECTS INSECT PREY AND THE ACTIVITY OF BATS IN DECIDUOUS FORESTS The use of forest habitats by insectivorous bats and their prey is poorly understood. Further, while the linkage between insects and vegetation is recognized as a foundation for trophic interactions, the mechanisms that govern insect populations are still debated. I investigated the interrelationships between forest disturbance, the insect prey base, and bats in eastern North America. I assessed predator and prey in Central Appalachia across a gradient of forest disturbance (Chapter Two). I conducted acoustic surveys of bat echolocation concurrent with insect surveys. Bat activity and insect occurrence varied regionally, seasonally, and across the disturbance gradient. Bat activity was positively related with disturbance, whereas insects demonstrated a mixed response. While Lepidopteran occurrence was negatively related with disturbance, Dipteran occurrence was positively related with disturbance. Shifts in Coleopteran occurrence were not observed. Myotine bat activity was most correlated with sub-canopy vegetation, whereas lasiurine bat activity was more correlated with canopy-level vegetation, suggesting differences in foraging behavior. Lepidoptera were most correlated with variables describing understory vegetation, whereas Coleoptera and Diptera were more correlated with canopy-level vegetative structure, suggesting differences in host resource utilization.

  • Characteristics of Mixed-Oak Forest Ecosystems in Southern Ohio Prior to the Reintroduction of Fire
    United States Department of Characteristics of Mixed-Oak Agriculture Forest Service Forest Ecosystems in Northeastern Research Station Southern Ohio Prior to the General Technical Reintroduction of Fire Report NE-299 Abstract Mixed-oak forests occupied much of the Unglaciated Allegheny Plateau region of southern Ohio at the onset of Euro-American settlement (ca. 1800). Historically, Native Americans used fire to manage the landscape and fire was frequent throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries during extensive forest harvesting and then re-growth. Today, though mixed-oak forests remain dominant across much of the region, oak regeneration is often poor as other tree species (e.g., maples) are becoming much more abundant. This shift has occurred concurrently with fire suppression policies that began in 1923. A multidisciplinary experiment was initiated in southern Ohio to explore the use of prescribed fire as a tool to improve the sustainability of mixed-oak forests. This report describes the experimental design and study areas, and provides baseline data on ecosystem characteristics prior to prescribed fire treatments. Chapters describe forest history, an integrated moisture index, geology and soils, understory light environments, understory vegetation, tree regeneration, overstory vegetation, foliar nutrient status, arthropods, and breeding birds.

Hobson Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation Division of Natural Heritage 217 Governor Street Richmond, Virginia 23219 ABSTRACT National park sites at Turkey Run Park and Great Falls Park, Fairfax County, Virginia, were surveyed intermittently from April 1999 through March 2007 for macrolepidopteran moths. A total of 480 taxa from 281 genera in 13 families was documented, including the first known record of Abrostola urentis Guenée (Noctuidae) from Virginia. Eleven of the taxa recorded are included on the watch list of rare animals in Virginia. Relationships of uncommon moths to their host plants are discussed. Extensions to the known physiographic ranges and periods of adult flight activity are noted for some species. Key words: Abrostola urentis, biodiversity, Lepidoptera, moths, national parks, Potomac River Gorge, Virginia. INTRODUCTION rare species (Ward, 1881; Cohn, 2004), and determine whether any federally or state-listed rare, threatened or Although the Lepidoptera have long been esteemed endangered macro-moths occur within the study sites. among collectors of insects (Morrison, 1875; Packard, 1895; Holland, 1903), few systematic studies of the STUDY SITES moths of Virginia have been published (Skinner, 1921; Stein, 1993; Ludwig, 2000, 2001, 2002; Butler et al., The study sites are located within the Virginia 2001).

    INVENTORY OF LEPIDOPTERA OF THE ALBEMARLE-PAMLICO PENINSULAR REGION OF NORTH CAROLINA, INCLUDING PETTIGREW, GOOSE CREEK, AND JOCKEY’S RIDGE STATE PARKS AND NAG’S HEAD WOODS ECOLOGICAL PRESERVE by Stephen P. Hall March 1999 (edited June 2017) Catocala cara Nag’s Head Woods 1993-August-18 North Carolina Natural Heritage Program Division of Parks and Recreation P.O. Box 27687 Raleigh, NC 27611-7687 Funded by a grant from North Carolina Natural Heritage Trust Fund Acknowledgments I wish to thank several people and organizations that contributed to this report. The Board of the Natural Heritage Trust Fund provided the funding for this project. Barb Blonder and Jeff DeBlieu of the Nag’s Head Woods Ecological Preserve were involved in its initiation, due to their concerns about the effects on the preserve of the gypsy moth or efforts to control this forest pest. Superintendents, past and present, at the three state parks who gave their support included Sid Shearin, Pettigrew State Park; Lauris Joyner and Martha Woods, Goose Creek State Park; and George Barnes, Jockey’s Ridge State Park. Collection and specimen preparation at Nag’s Head Woods was aided by the assistance of several volunteers (organized by Barb Blonder). These included Chris Carroll, David Leake, Dick Wood, Anne Wood, Joyce Hannan, Bob Hannan, Con Weltman, Paris Trail, Janet Owen, Frank Tromba, Steve Thomas, T.P. McBride, Michael Donahue, Ed Zakrajesek, and Jan DeBlieu. My wife, Dee Stuckey accompanied me on a number of sampling trips and helped with equipment and sampling. Our niece, Alicia Trigeiro, also accompanied us on one occasion.
