REMARQUES PRÉALABLES 1 – Présentation sommaire du Togo Situé dans la sous région Ouest africaine, le Togo est un petit pays effilé coincé entre le Bénin à l’Est et le Ghana à l’Ouest. Il est limité au Nord par le Burkina Faso et au Sud par le Golfe de Guinée. Sa superficie est de 56 600 km2. La population est de 4 500 000 habitants avec une densité moyenne de 25 habitants / Km2. La proportion de la femme est de 62%. La zone guinéenne du Togo qui comprend les régions Maritimes et des Plateaux compte 76,6% de pauvre dont 65,5% extrêmement pauvre1. Sur le plan économique, l’évolution du PIB par habitant du Togo en général a progressivement baissé depuis les années 1997 à la suite de la situation socio politique du pays, jointe aux problèmes climatiques qui ont eu des impacts négatifs sur la flore, la faune et la production agricole2. En vue de freiner la pression anthropique sur les ressources naturelles et réduire la pauvreté des populations tributaires des ressources animales et végétales, les divers programme de développement3 proposent dans leur plan d’action, le développement des activités génératrices de revenus afin d’orienter les activités de ces exploitants.

Odonata, Coleoptera Cetoniidae and Lepidoptera Rhopalocera were collected during 2006 from the Lokoli swampy forest. 24 Odonata species were listed, with 13 new species for Benin, including Oxythemis phoenicosceles Ris, a rare species, and Ceriagrion citrinum Campion, an endangered species on the IUCN red list, which suggest that this forest should be made a nature reserve. 12 flower beetles species were listed, most of them live only in forests. Cyprolais aurata (Westwood) is known to be a species living only in swampy rainforests and Grammopyga cincta Kolbe is known in Benin only in Lokoli and in Ouémé valley. Among 75 butterflies species, 28 are new to Bénin and only 9 occur strictly in forests. The uncommon species Eurema hapale Mabille, E. desjardinsii regularis Butler and Acraea encedana Pierre live only in swampy areas. The Lokoli swampy rainforest is ecologically unique in Benin and contributes to regional biodiversity, therefore it must become protected as nature reserve.

Being additio~al notes and addenda to the groups dealt with in the Journal of the East Africa and Uganda Natural History Society, 1925-1935. INTRODUCTION. It is now some ten years since the first part of Volume 1 of the serial on the" Butterflies of Kenya and Uganda" appeared, and, as new material and additional observations have accumulated, it is con• sidered advisable to publish a special paper embodying this new data. For much of the new material, I am indebted to my friend T. H. E. Jackilon of Kitale, who has done, and is doing, such excellent work in his district and in Uganda. Reference will be made to the original notes as they appeared in the several numbers of the Journal, and to the species as dealt with in the Separata of VoL 1. Corrections to the letterpress have appeared in the Index to Vol. 6 of the Journal. The order followed will be that adopted in the Journal. Family DANAIDIDAE. Sub-family DANAININAE:Genus Melinda. MELINDA FORMOSA and MEROEDONIA. Ref. Op. cit. No. 21, pp. 31-32: Vol. 1, Sap. 1, pp. 10-11. The two representatives of this genus, hitherto considered two distinct species, overlap in their distribution, and in the area of contact, interbreed. Extensive material shows many intermediates. The area of overlap is from Lumbwa-Nandi to Elgon. As is well known, jormosa is the model for Papilio rex, and merce• donia for rex mimeticus, the Uganda race.

BUTLER, Ph.D., &c., Senior Assiutant-Keeper, Zoological Department. [Read 7th November, 1895.1 ONE of the first genera which 1 ever otudieil, and the Erst which I monographed, was the geiius Charaxes, a paper ou which I published in 1865 in the ' Proceedings ot the Zoological Society,' in which I recorded sixty-eight species (two of which, however, were noted as doubtful and ere subsequently suppremed) : the present paper enumerates no fewer than one hundred and fifty- nine. I have followed Prof. Aurivillius in uuiting Palla to Cliaraxes : if kept separate, it would have to be broken up into several geucra, and Charaxes ithelf would in like inanuer have to be sub- divided ; tliis, indeed, has been done for the Iiidian species by Mr. Moore ; but apart from outline of wing 1have been unable to discover any constant structural characters ou which to base these genera. That wing-outline in Charaxes is not of generic im- portance seems clear, from the fact that (i.) in iuany of the species it differs to an extraordinary degree in the sezes ; (ii.) the most nearly related species (as, for instance, C.

  • Butterflies in Ologbo Forest
    BUTTERFLIES IN OLOGBO FOREST Dr. Oskar Brattström [email protected] Survey efforts and methodology This survey combines data from tree visits to Ologbo. Initially Robert Warren made a two day survey 8-9 June 2006 and this brief visit produced a number of interesting records. I made a preliminary visit 27-31 October 2008 to asses if the area had potential for future butterfly studies. The result from these two shorter was promising and I therefore returned 22 March – 2 April 2009 to make a more detailed study. The main survey efforts have been concentrated two the South and North-west parts of the Ologbo Forest. Butterflies were captured using hand netting (most days between 09:30-14:00) and banana/pineapple baited traps, in most cases traps were left in the field over nights and re-baited at regular intervals. Captured specimens were either identified immediately in the field or brought back for later identification. There are still a large number of specimens waiting identification. Some species were also indentified on the wings when capture was not possible. One day was spent in the plantation itself (South of the Dura Club) to get an idea of what species of butterflies are present in an area with fully matured oil palms some distance away from a semi-natural forest. In this area only hand netting and visual observation was used, as the typical canopy species which can often only be recorded using traps hardly occur in this type habitat. In general it was very easy to detect and identify butterflies in this more open type of habitat and most of the species were well known savannah butterflies.

Acknowledgements ………………………………………………………………………………………………………….16 7. References ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….16 2 1. Introduction & Background After a brief visit to Coutada 12, in 2016, I became aware of the importance of this area to conservation and the preservation of biodiversity. I also noticed the area had a relatively low number of people. However if population levels increase and pressures for land to be used as agriculture (or in an unsustainable way) increase the area could be threatened by land use changes which do not preserve its diversity. In 2017, after many years, I re-engaged with Ivan Carter while he was visiting the Southern African Wildlife College. We talked about methods to try and improve the significance and ultimately the sustainability of the natural resources of the Marromeu complex which includes Coutada 11. In order to do this one needs to know what is there and its importance, a first step in this process is to do meaningful surveys. Although Ivan and myself liaised concerning surveys of a number of groups this did not come to fruition. However it was decided I would do a short collecting trip for butterflies to do a preliminary list of the butterflies of Coutada 11. At the same time and realizing plants (soil and water) are a bases for most living animals I asked Prof.

  • 2018 € Euro Butterfly Pupae Catalogue
    2018 € Euro Butterfly Pupae Catalogue To the Butterfly Keeper January 2018 2018 Butterfly Pupae Supplies Thank you for downloading our 2018 Euro pupae price list and order forms. After detailed negotiations with our suppliers we have managed to hold most of our prices to the same level as last year. The close working relationship we have with our Couriers has led to only a 5% increase in UPS costs to Europe, mainly due to fuel price increases. After many years we are discontinuing our Standard World Mix as we feel that the range of species offered is not broad enough to justify its inclusion in our catalogue. We are replacing it with an Old-World Mix where we will include species from The Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand, Tanzania and Kenya. As ever there are several ways to order. You can simply fill out the enclosed forms and post, fax or email them back to us. If you prefer to order from our weekly availability list, then we can email it to you if you provide us with your email address. Or you can find it at www.tropicalbutterflypupae.com We post the new list around 2pm UK time every Friday afternoon. Please be aware, our pupae sell out very quickly, so if you leave your order until the following week we cannot guarantee that we will be able to fulfil your specific order. A new feature of the list this year will be occasional sales of various species. These will appear when our suppliers have had a particularly good result with any one species and we intend to share the bounty with our customers.

In this report there is included at list of butterflies from Afi Mountains documented by Duke P. Knoop and Inaoyom Sunday Imong who collected within the sanctuary for some days (exact number not reported) and recorded 139 species. The species found in this survey are listed in Appendix 1. Some records have been deleted since new revisions in taxonomy/ phylogeography have made them obsolete (Falcuna gitte, Euriphene veronica, Euriphene simplex). Survey efforts I have surveyed butterflies at Afi Mountains Wildlife Sanctuary at four different occasions. The first two visits were just quick stops as tourist at Afi Drill Ranch and the “survey” consisted of visual identification and some photographic work and resulted in 101 recorded species. My initial experience of the region was positive and therefore two longer periods have now been spent (20 Nov-2 Dec 2008 and 11-25 Feb 2009) with the sole purpose of surveying the butterflies in the area. At both occasions Drill Ranch has been used as base for daily surveys but an additional five nights were recently spent at higher elevations (see special section). After this initial survey a first report was written (February 2009) and this report is an updated version of the previous report including new records from two visits made 25-27 Jun 2009 and 25-30 Mar 2010.

  • The Evolutionary History and Systematics of the Genus Charaxes Ochsenheimer (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in the Indo-Pacific Region
    Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2010, 100, 457–481. With 4 figures ‘After Africa’: the evolutionary history and systematics of the genus Charaxes Ochsenheimer (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in the Indo-Pacific region CHRIS J. MÜLLER1*, NIKLAS WAHLBERG2 and LUCIANO B. BEHEREGARAY1,3 1Molecular Ecology Laboratory, Department of Biological Sciences, Macquarie University, Talavera Rd., Sydney, 2109, Australia 2Laboratory of Genetics, Department of Biology, University of Turku, 20014 Turku, Vesilinnantie 5, Finland 3School of Biological Sciences, Flinders University, Sturt Rd., Adelaide, SA 5001, Australia Received 4 September 2009; revised 14 December 2009; accepted for publication 15 December 2009bij_1426 457..481 The predominantly Afrotropical genus Charaxes is represented by 31 known species outside of Africa (excluding subgenus Polyura Billberg). We explored the biogeographic history of the genus using every known non-African species, with several African species as outgroup taxa. A phylogenetic hypothesis is proposed, based on molecular characters of the mitochondrial genes cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) and NADH dehydrogenase 5 (ND5), and the nuclear wingless gene. Phylogenetic analyses based on maximum parsimony and Bayesian inference of the combined dataset implies that the Indo-Pacific Charaxes form a monophyletic assemblage, with the exception of Charaxes solon Fabricius. Eight major lineages are recognized in the Indo-Pacific, here designated the solon (+African), elwesi, harmodius, amycus, mars, eurialus, latona, nitebis, and bernardus clades. Species group relationships are concordant with morphology and, based on the phylogeny, we present the first systematic appraisal and classification of all non-African species. A biogeographical analysis reveals that, after the genus originated in Africa, the evolutionary history of Charaxes in the Indo-Pacific, in particular Wallacea, may be correlated with the inferred geological and climatic history of the region.
