Rapport SPN 2013 - 19 (Septembre 2013) Dupont (Pascal), Demerges (David), Drouet (Eric) et Luquet (Gérard Chr.). 2013. Révision systématique, taxinomique et nomenclaturale des Rhopalocera et des Zygaenidae de France métropolitaine. Conséquences sur l’acquisition et la gestion des données d’inventaire. Rapport MMNHN-SPN 2013 - 19, 201 p. 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. -

Populations are typically fragmented, restricted to high altitudes in one or several mountain ranges, where habitat is relatively well preserved, but where the effects of climate change are considerable. As a result, the genus Erebia has become a model to study the impact of climate changes, past and present, on intraspecific genetic diversity. In this study, we inferred phylogenetic relationships among populations of the European species Erebia epiphron and Erebia orientalis using mitochondrial (COI) and nuclear markers (ITS2, wg and RPS5), and reconstructed their phylogeographical history. We confirm E. orientalis and E. epiphron as a relatively young species pair that split c. -

Endemic Macrolepidoptera Subspecies in the Natural History Museum Collections from Sibiu (Romania)
Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle © 31 août «Grigore Antipa» Vol. LVI (1) pp. 65–80 2013 DOI: 10.2478/travmu-2013-0005 ENDEMIC MACROLEPIDOPTERA SUBSPECIES IN THE NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM COLLECTIONS FROM SIBIU (ROMANIA) SERGIU-CORNEL TÖRÖK, GABRIELA CUZEPAN Abstract. The paper presents data regarding endemic Macrolepidoptera subspecies preserved in the Entomological Collections of Natural History Museum from Sibiu. 22 endemic subspecies are recorded and represented by 382 specimens in the Entomological Collection. Most of the specimens have been collected from mountain habitats, especially from Southern and Western Carpathians. The results of this paper contribute to the improvement of the existing data concerning the distribution and outline the areas of Macrolepidoptera’s endemism in Romania. Résumé. Le document présente des données concernant les sous-espèces endémiques des Macrolépidoptères conservées dans les collections entomologiques du Musée d’Histoire Naturelle de Sibiu. 22 sous-espèces endémiques sont enregistrées et représentées par 382 spécimens dans la collection entomologique. La plupart des spécimens ont été recueillis dans les habitats de montagne, en particulier du Sud et l’Ouest des Carpates. Les résultats de cette étude contribuent à compléter les données existantes concernant la distribution et de définir les zones d’endémisme des Macrolépidoptères en Roumanie. Key words: Macrolepidoptera, endemic taxa, geographic distribution, museum collections. INTRODUCTION In this paper, the authors wish to present the endemic taxa from the Natural History Museum from Sibiu. The term endemic is used for taxa that are unique to a geographic location. This geographic location can be either relatively large or very small (Gaston & Spicer, 1998; Kenyeres et al., 2009). -

Annotated Checklist of Albanian Butterflies (Lepidoptera, Papilionoidea and Hesperioidea)

ZooKeys 323: 75–89. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.323.5684 Abstract The Republic of Albania has a rich diversity of flora and fauna. However, due to its political isolation, it has never been studied in great depth, and consequently, the existing list of butterfly species is outdated and in need of radical amendment. In addition to our personal data, we have studied the available litera- ture, and can report a total of 196 butterfly species recorded from the country. For some of the species in the list we have given explanations for their inclusion and made other annotations. Doubtful records have been removed from the list, and changes in taxonomy have been updated and discussed separately. The purpose of our paper is to remove confusion and conflict regarding published records. However, the revised checklist should not be considered complete: it represents a starting point for further research. -
Permeability of Habitat Edges for Ringlet Butterflies (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Erebia Dalman 1816) in an Alpine Landscape

Abstract. We tracked the movements of adult Ringlet butterflies (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Erebia Dalman, 1816) in high-elevation (> 1800 meters a.s.l.) grasslands in the Austrian Alps in order to test if an anthropogenic boundary (= an asphalt road) had a stronger effect on butterfly movement than natural habitat boundaries (trees, scree, or dwarf shrubs surrounding grassland sites). 373 individuals (136 females, 237 males) belonging to 11 Erebia species were observed in one flight season (July–August 2013) while approaching or crossing habitat edges. Erebia pandrose (Borkhausen, 1788) was the most abundant species with 239 observations. All species studied were reluctant to cross habitat boundaries, but permeability was further strongly affected by the border type. Additional variables influencing movement probability were species identity and the time of the day. -
Die Gattung Coenonympha HÜBNER, 1819, in Europa: Systematik, Ökologie Und Schutz (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae)
Oedippus 25:1-42 30.IX.2007 Die Gattung Coenonympha HÜBNER, 1819, in Europa: Systematik, Ökologie und Schutz (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) MARTIN WIEMERS Key words: Europe; allozyme electrophoresis; systematics; identification; ecology; conservation. Abstract: A review of the systematics, ecology and conservation of the 13 species of the genus Coenonympha which are currently recognized from Europe is presented. The paper comprises results from allozyme electrophoretic studies in several Coenonympha species with a focus on C. glycerion. These prove that populations of the latter species from the Iberian Peninsula are genetically differentiated from Central European populations, but freely interbreed in the Pyrenees. Therefore the taxon iphioides should be regarded as a subspecies of C. glycerion.
