Résumé : Les études de phylogénie moléculaire sur les Lépidoptères Rhopalocères et Zygènes sont de plus en plus nombreuses ces dernières années modifiant la systématique et la taxinomie de ces deux groupes. Une mise à jour complète est réalisée dans ce travail. Un cadre décisionnel a été élaboré pour les niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifique avec une approche intégrative de la taxinomie. Ce cadre intégre notamment un aspect biogéographique en tenant compte des zones-refuges potentielles pour les espèces au cours du dernier maximum glaciaire. Cette démarche permet d’avoir une approche homogène pour le classement des taxa aux niveaux spécifiques et infra-spécifiques. Les conséquences pour l’acquisition des données dans le cadre d’un inventaire national sont développées. Summary : Studies on molecular phylogenies of Butterflies and Burnets have been increasingly frequent in the recent years, changing the systematics and taxonomy of these two groups. A full update has been performed in this work.

CropLife represents companies that develop, manufacture, and distribute virtually all ofthe crop protection, pest management, and biotechnology products used by American farmers. Because these products are critical technologies for American agriculture, CropLife's members have a substantial interest in the issues presented in the 90-day finding on a petition to list as threatened the Monarch butterfly (Dana us plexippus p/exippus) made available to the publicI by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ("FWS") on December 31, 2014 pursuant to the Endangered Species Act ("ESA,,). 2 As these initial comments indicate, our organization and its members believe that the proposed listing of the Monarch butterfly under the ESA is not warranted. Estimates for Monarch populations in North America have been available for only about two decades.

The island had lush greenery and abundant flora, with the endemic Crocus minimus and some alpine flora on the heights of Bruncu Spina, endemic orchids in the lovely wooded valleys of the Forest of Margani, and the colourful roadside flora of Crown Daisies, Galactites, Mallow-leaved Bindweed and the statuesque umbellifers of Giant Fennel, Thapsia garganica and Magydaris pastinacea. The varied habitats of saltpans, rocky and sandy coastlines, mountain, scrub, farmland and Holm/Cork oak woodland provided a good variety of birds. We also explored Nurhagic and Roman sites getting a feel of life in ancient times. As always the enthusiasm of the group added enormously to the trip and we had a great week of good company, birds and flowers! Good humour was also needed as the weather rather limited our exploration in the mountains! Day 1 Sunday 29th April Arrive at Cagliari, drive across the island to our hotel in Dorgali Our flight arrived on time and despite a hitch with the hired vehicles we were soon loaded up and on our way heading north from the airport (with grateful thanks to Colin).

  • Invertebrate Fauna of Wadi Al-Quff Protected Area, Palestine
    80 Jordan Journal of Natural History Invertebrate Fauna of Wadi Al-Quff Protected Area, Palestine Mazin Qumsiyeh Palestine Museum of Natural History and Palestine Institute of Biodiversity and Sustainability, Bethlehem University ABSTRACT We report results of a preliminary survey of the invertebrate fauna of Wadi Al-Quff area (occupied Palestine). We recorded 23 species of butterflies in 5 families. Moths were a difficult group to classify but we have at least 45 species. Dragon flies and damsel flies were noted in the Wadi Hasaka area. Four mantids in three families, two species of stick insects, one earwig species (Dermeptera) and at least seven species of Orthoptera were noted. There were at least 13 species of Hemiptera (true bugs) and 5 species of Neuroptera (netwing insects). We noted at least 13 species in ten families of the Order Diptera (the flies). We also collected/observed at least 17 species of Hymenoptera in eight families. In the Order Blattoidae (roaches), we noted two species only but the Order Coleoptera (Beetles) was very richly represented with at least 23 species in 10 families. Among parasitic arthropods we collected two species of fleas and three species of ticks (Ixodidae), one of the latter involved in transmittal of spotted fever. Five species of scorpions were noted, the largest being the Jericho or Mt. Nebo scorpion Nebo hierichonticus and the smallest being the brown scorpion Compsubuthus werneri. Two species of pseudoscorpions and two species of camel spiders were collected. A more difficult group was the regular spiders (Araneae) and we noted over two dozen species in at least 8 families.

This is a splendidly detailed account of the 47 butterfly species of the island and those of Rhodes and neighbouring Aegean islands, h is unusual for a faunistic work to include a detailed analysis of the taxonomy of the species concerned. However, the taxonomical status of island species is always problematical and it is therefore a valuable addition to this work. Apart from the short introduction, references and postscript, the book is split into three parts : 1. General background, covering geography, climate, geology, vegetation and lepidopterological history ; 2.

  • Review of the Status of Papilio Hospiton Guenée, 1839 in the Periodic Review of Species Included in the Cites Appendices Resolution Conf
    REVIEW OF THE STATUS OF PAPILIO HOSPITON GUENÉE, 1839 IN THE PERIODIC REVIEW OF SPECIES INCLUDED IN THE CITES APPENDICES RESOLUTION CONF. 11.1 (REV. COP15) AND RESOLUTION CONF. 14.8 INTRODUCTION At its 25th meeting (Geneva, 2011), the Animals Committee selected Papilio hospiton for review under the Periodic Review of Appendices taking place between CoP15 (2010) and CoP17 (2016) (AC25 Doc. 15.6; AC26 Doc.13.3). The CITES Secretariat issued Notification to the Parties No. 2011/038 (Periodic review of species included in the CITES Appendices), inviting range States of the taxa concerned to comment within 90 days (by 20th of December 2011) on the selection and to put forward offers to review the species. The EU offered to undertake the review for this species, which was conducted by France and Italy, in collaboration with UNEP-WCMC. The Animals Committee endorsed this proposal by postal procedure after AC26 as part of the Periodic Review of the Appendices (Resolution Conf. 14.8). This species is a European endemic, occurring on the islands of Corsica (France) and Sardinia (Italy). PROPOSAL To transfer Papilio hospiton from CITES Appendix I to CITES Appendix II, in accordance with provisions of Resolution Conf. 9.24 (Rev. CoP15), Annex 4 precautionary measure A1 and A2a/b. The species does not meet the biological criteria for listing in Appendix I, laid out in Resolution Conf. 9.24 (Rev. CoP15) in Annex 1. The population size is estimated to be >10 000 adults hence does not meet criterion A; the area of distribution is considered relatively large (estimated at >20 000 km2) and thus the species does not meet criterion B and the population is thought to be stable or increasing and so does not meet criterion C.
