In Rindge's 1966 revision of this group, 18 were placed in Anacamptodes, which he recognized as possibly representing the same genus as Iridopsis, and two in Iridopsis itself. FIELD GUIDE DESCRIPTIONS: Leckie and Beadle (2018) ONLINE PHOTOS: MPG, BugGuide, BAMONA, BOLD TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION, ADULTS: Rindge (1966) TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION, IMMATURE STAGES: Wagner et al. (2002) ID COMMENTS: A medium-sized, dimorphically-colored Gray. The ground color of the wings is pale gray to nearly white. The antemedian and postmedian lines are black and shaded with either reddish-brown or blackish brown. The postmedian is moderately waved, but not deeply biconcave as in some other members of this genus. Forewings have only a weakly developed discal spot and median line, if any, but the discal spot is well-developed on the hindwings (Rindge, 1966). The strongly-contrasting black-and-white form is distinctive but the reddish-brown shaded form is similar to I. defectaria; that species is usually larger, has a more deeply undulating -- biconcave -- postmedian, with a prominent bulge at both M2 and C2. Iridopsis humaria is similar in size but has a darker, more purplish ground color. Iridopsis ephyraria is also similar in size but usually has a more distinct median line and discal spot. Iridopsis cypressaria is smaller and the ground color of its wings are tan rather than gray or whitish; the postmedian line in that species is also much straighter below the bulge at the cell. DISTRIBUTION: Found throughout the Coastal Plain, including the Fall-line Sandhills; also occurs in cypress stands in the eastern Piedmont FLIGHT COMMENT: Adults are present throughout most of the year, from late January to early November. Pupae overwinter (Wagner et al., 2002). HABITAT: Our records come from both riverine and non-riverine swamp forests, tidal as well as non-tidal forests, and from lakeshores and old millponds. Two records from Hoke County come from streamhead swamp forests, where Pond Cypress is likely to be the species present. None of our records come from cypress savannas, however. FOOD: Wagner et al. (2002) list Bald Cypress as the host and almost all of our records come from sites where distichum is the only species of cypress present. The two records from Hoke County, however, are more likely to be associated with Pond Cypress. OBSERVATION_METHODS: Comes well to blacklights NATURAL HERITAGE PROGRAM RANKS: G4G5 [S4] STATE PROTECTION: Has no legal protection, although permits are required to collect it on state parks and other public lands. COMMENTS: This species is a strong habitat specialist, but its habitats are still fairly widespread. Currently, it appears to be secure within the state.

It is represented in Chile by two described species, both from the Atacama Desert. New information Iridopsis socoromaensis sp. n. (Lepidoptera: Geometridae: Ennominae: Boarmiini) is described and illustrated from the western slopes of the Andes of northern Chile. Its larvae were found feeding on leaves of the Chilean endemic shrub Dalea pennellii (J.F. Macbr.) J.F. Macbr. var. chilensis Barneby (Fabaceae). Morphological differences of I. socoromaensis sp. n. with the two species of the genus previously known from Chile are discussed. A DNA barcode fragment of I. socoromaensis sp. n. showed 93.7-94.3% similarity with the Nearctic I. sanctissima (Barnes & McDunnough, 1917). However, the morphology of the genitalia suggests that these two species are distantly related. The © Vargas H.

  • Influence of Habitat and Bat Activity on Moth Community Composition and Seasonal Phenology Across Habitat Types
    INFLUENCE OF HABITAT AND BAT ACTIVITY ON MOTH COMMUNITY COMPOSITION AND SEASONAL PHENOLOGY ACROSS HABITAT TYPES BY MATTHEW SAFFORD THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Advisor: Assistant Professor Alexandra Harmon-Threatt, Chair and Director of Research ABSTRACT Understanding the factors that influence moth diversity and abundance is important for monitoring moth biodiversity and developing conservation strategies. Studies of moth habitat use have primarily focused on access to host plants used by specific moth species. How vegetation structure influences moth communities within and between habitats and mediates the activity of insectivorous bats is understudied. Previous research into the impact of bat activity on moths has primarily focused on interactions in a single habitat type or a single moth species of interest, leaving a large knowledge gap on how habitat structure and bat activity influence the composition of moth communities across habitat types. I conducted monthly surveys at sites in two habitat types, restoration prairie and forest. Moths were collected using black light bucket traps and identified to species. Bat echolocation calls were recorded using ultrasonic detectors and classified into phonic groups to understand how moth community responds to the presence of these predators. Plant diversity and habitat structure variables, including tree diameter at breast height, ground cover, and vegetation height were measured during summer surveys to document how differences in habitat structure between and within habitats influences moth diversity. I found that moth communities vary significantly between habitat types.

Oxidation of the homoconjugated dienes with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid yielded a 1 : 1 mix- ture of two monoepoxides that could be separated by repeated medium-pres- sure liquid chromatography with a Lobar column. The chemical slructure of each positional isomer was confirmed by analyses of the ozonolysis products, and the isomers showed characteristic ~SC signals in their NMR spectra and fragment ions in their El mass spectra. In addition to the (Z,Z,Z)-3,6,9-trienes with straight C~s-C23 chains and their monoepoxides, field tests using single source lures incorporating one of the above seven dienes and 14 monoepoxy- monoenes were carried out in a forest in Tokyo from 1992 to 1994. Conse- quently, attraction of six geometrid species and five noctuid species was observed for the first time.
