  • Estimating Time and Space in the Evolution of the Lepidoptera
    Estimating time and space in the evolution of the Lepidoptera Rienk de Jong Several aspects of estimating what happened when and where in the evolution of the Lepidoptera are discussed. Because of their scarcity and often poor preservation, fossils are not very helpful, but at least they demonstrate that, in the Oligocene some taxa of butterflies, perhaps at tribal level or higher, did occur in the Northern as well as in the Southern Hemisphere. The concept of a molecular clock is seen as a most needed test for vicariance explanations of disjunct distributions. Special emphasis is laid on the importance of calibration of the clock. The use of geological vicariance events as calibration points is rejected, because of circularity when vicariance explanations are to be tested. Fossils as calibration points should ideally be replaced by the minimum age of an apomorphous character state demonstrated by the fossil rather than a supposed identity on the basis of overall similarity. Some conditions that directed the evolution of Lepidoptera (called constraints here) are discussed for their possible use as calibration points. Estimation of the evolution in space through time (palaeobiogeography) as found in recent literature is discussed, the often supposed role (of the break-up) of Gondwana in the evolution of the butterflies is challenged, and an alternative hypothesis is given.

  • Proposal for Wild Harvest and Export of Invertebrates Submitted for Approval Under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999
    27th April 2021 Proposal for Wild Harvest and Export of Invertebrates submitted for approval under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 1. Introduction In 1982, the applicants who recognised the full potential and value of the property to the initial establishing of their insect farming business purchased 80 acres of dense lowland rainforest. Areas of the property, prior to its purchase by the applicants, had been used for extractive processes such as a quarry and for logging. Other past activities that also affected the integrity of the property were cattle grazing and an attempt at establishing a deer farm. A total of 20 acres were clear felled to enable the cattle grazing and deer farming to occur. To assist recovery of the acreage, surveys were conducted and relevant areas for rehabilitation were identified and addressed. The past 30 years has seen an astounding proliferation of fauna numbers as well as an improvement of habitat for many species. Priority to land management is a key factor in the efficiency of the farm and its projects. Areas within the acreage have been identified and allocated to allow for the farm activities while maintaining the bulk of the acreage for non-business practices. Present operations are conducted on approximately 20 acres. This area lies within a section of the property, which was 75 years earlier totally cleared for cattle grazing and a typical example of regrowth rainforest. The property is listed under “Land for Wildlife” Queensland. This business has grown from what was initially established to operate as a breeding facility, catering to public demand for invertebrate specimens for use in research, education, natural history documentaries, personal interests and various other applications.

  • Genome Scaffolding and Annotation for the Pathogen Vector Ixodes Ricinus by Ultra-Long Single Molecule Sequencing Wibke J
    Cramaro et al. Parasites & Vectors (2017) 10:71 DOI 10.1186/s13071-017-2008-9 RESEARCH Open Access Genome scaffolding and annotation for the pathogen vector Ixodes ricinus by ultra-long single molecule sequencing Wibke J. Cramaro1, Oliver E. Hunewald1, Lesley Bell-Sakyi2 and Claude P. Muller1* Abstract Background: Global warming and other ecological changes have facilitated the expansion of Ixodes ricinus tick populations. Ixodes ricinus is the most important carrier of vector-borne pathogens in Europe, transmitting viruses, protozoa and bacteria, in particular Borrelia burgdorferi (sensu lato), the causative agent of Lyme borreliosis, the most prevalent vector-borne disease in humans in the Northern hemisphere. To faster control this disease vector, a better understanding of the I. ricinus tick is necessary. To facilitate such studies, we recently published the first reference genome of this highly prevalent pathogen vector. Here, we further extend these studies by scaffolding and annotating the first reference genome by using ultra-long sequencing reads from third generation single molecule sequencing. In addition, we present the first genome size estimation for I. ricinus ticks and the embryo-derived cell line IRE/CTVM19. Results: 235,953 contigs were integrated into 204,904 scaffolds, extending the currently known genome lengths by more than 30% from 393 to 516 Mb and the N50 contig value by 87% from 1643 bp to a N50 scaffold value of 3067 bp. In addition, 25,263 sequences were annotated by comparison to the tick’sNorthAmericanrelative Ixodes scapularis. After (conserved) hypothetical proteins, zinc finger proteins, secreted proteins and P450 coding proteins were the most prevalent protein categories annotated.
