  • Bumble Bee Clearwing Moths
    Colorado Insects of Interest “Bumble Bee Clearwing” Moths Scientific Names: Hemaris thysbe (F.) (hummingbird clearwing), Hemaris diffinis (Boisduval) (snowberry clearwing), Hemaris thetis (Boisduval) (Rocky Mountain clearwing), Amphion floridensis (Nessus sphinx) Figure 1. Hemaris thysbe, the hummingbird clearwing. Photograph courtesy of David Order: Lepidoptera (Butterflies, Moths, and Cappaert. Skippers) Family: Sphingidae (Sphinx Moths, Hawk Moths, Hornworms) Identification and Descriptive Features: Adults of these insects are moderately large moths that have some superficial resemblance to bumble bees. They most often attract attention when they are seen hovering at flowers in late spring and early summer. It can be difficult to distinguish the three “bumble bee clearwing” moths that occur in Colorado, particularly when they are actively moving about plants. The three species are approximately the same size, with wingspans that range between 3.2 to 5.5cm. The hummingbird clearwing is the largest and distinguished by having yellow legs, an Figure 2. Amphion floridensis, the Nessus olive/olive yellow thorax and dark abdomen with sphinx. small patches. The edges of the wings have a thick bordering edge of reddish brown. The snowberry clearwing has black legs, a black band that runs through the eye and along the thorax, a golden/olive golden thorax and a brown or black abdomen with 1-2 yellow bands. The head and thorax of the Rocky Mountain clearwing is brownish olive or olive green and the abdomen black or olive green above, with yellow underside. Although the caterpillar stage of all the clearwing sphinx moths feed on foliage of various shrubs and trees, damage is minimal, none are considered pest species.

A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

  • 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.

  • Abstract Alliaria Petiolata (Garlic
    ABSTRACT ALLIARIA PETIOLATA (GARLIC MUSTARD) RESPONSE TO HERBICIDE AND JUNE PRECIPITATION, AND SUBSEQUENT EFFECTS ON THE FOREST FLOOR COMMUNITY by Wendy Wenger Hochstedler The impact of invasive plant species on native plants is largely assumed to be negative, but supporting evidence is sparse. We examined the long-term effects of herbicide on Alliaria petiolata and the subsequent effects on the plant community in southwestern Ohio. November herbicide application effectively killed A. petiolata, but did not reduce recruitment; spring densities of A. petiolata rosettes were not lower in sprayed plots. Only modest differences were noted in forest floor vegetation, suggesting A. petiolata rosettes competed with other plant species. We tested the hypothesis that higher June precipitation promotes rosette growth and survival with a rain shelter experiment. The three different water treatments affected soil moisture, but not A. petiolata growth or survival. Dry treatments may not have replicated drought years based on water availability measurements. June precipitation is probably not a reliable predictor of A. petiolata rosette survival in years with above average precipitation.

  • Native Plants for Pollinators
    Native Plants for Pollinators Grow these favourite pollinator plants to attract butterflies, moths and bees Planting pollinator-friendly plants is a great way to help the Native Pollinators Love Native Plants environment and add some vibrant colour to your landscape. Native pollinators in the Credit River watershed co-evolved with the native plants in the region. They are best suited to successfully pollinate native flowering plants and get pollen or nectar from them. These are some common native pollinators that you can attract to your property: • Eastern Tiger • Red Admiral Butterfly • Frigid Leaf Cutter Bee Swallowtail Butterfly • Little Wood-satyr Butterfly • Bicolored Sweat Bee Nardone • Clouded Sulphur Butterfly • Common Eastern • Hummingbird Clearwing Moth Erika • Northern Azure Butterfly Bumble Bee • Virginia Ctenucha Moth • Monarch Butterfly • Tricolored Bumble Bee Photo: Sweat Bee on Black-eyed Susan Pollination Pollination is an essential process of plant life. Pollen from the stamen (male part of the flower) is transferred to the pistol (female part of the flower) allowing a plant to produce seeds that become the next generation. The transfer of pollen almost always requires an outside influence, such as wind or animals. Animals that help pollinate flowers are known as pollinators. All flowering plant species produce pollen, a source of protein for many insects. Many flowers also produce nectar, a sugar-based high energy food. Both pollen and nectar attract pollinators Morber Nardone Nardone to flowers. They move from flower-to-flower, feeding and collecting food, unintentionally Brian Erika Erika transferring pollen from one plant to another. This is called cross-pollination and it ensures Photo: genetic diversity and resilience.
