Entomologie, Plantage Middenlaan 64, NL-1018 DH Amsterdam, The Netherlands Colin G. T readaway, Entomologie II, Forschungsinstitut Senckenberg, Senckenberganlage 25, D-60325 Frankfurt am Main, Germany Abstract: This publication covers all Sphingidae known from the Philippines at this time in the form of an annotated checklist. (A concise checklist of the species can be found in Table 4, page 120.) Distribution maps are included as well as 18 colour plates covering all but one species. Where no specimens of a particular spe­ cies from the Philippines were available to us, illustrations are given of specimens from outside the Philippines. In total we have listed 117 species (with 5 additional subspecies where more than one subspecies of a species exists in the Philippines). Four tables are provided: 1) a breakdown of the number of species and endemic species/subspecies for each subfamily, tribe and genus of Philippine Sphingidae; 2) an evaluation of the number of species as well as endemic species/subspecies per island for the nine largest islands of the Philippines plus one small island group for comparison; 3) an evaluation of the Sphingidae endemicity for each of Vane-Wright’s (1990) faunal regions. From these tables it can be readily deduced that the highest species counts can be encountered on the islands of Palawan (73 species), Luzon (72), Mindanao, Leyte and Negros (62 each).

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. This is an update of the Hawk-Moths flying in the transect between the cities of Karwar and Dharwar in northern Karnataka state, peninsular India, based on and following up on the previous fairly detailed study made by T.R.D. Bell around Karwar and summarized in the 1937 FAUNA OF BRITISH INDIA volume on Sphingidae. A total of 69 species of 27 genera are listed. The Western Ghats ‘Hot Spot’ separates these towns, one that lies on the coast of the Arabian Sea and the other further east, leeward of the ghats, on the Deccan Plateau. The intervening tract exhibits a wide range of habitats and altitudes, lying in the North Kanara and Dharwar districts of Karnataka. This paper is also an update and summary of Sphingidae flying in peninsular India. Limited field sampling was done; collections submitted by students of the Agricultural University at Dharwar were also examined and are cited here .

    Australian Sphingidae – DNA Barcodes Challenge Current Species Boundaries and Distributions Rodolphe Rougerie1*¤, Ian J. Kitching2, Jean Haxaire3, Scott E. Miller4, Axel Hausmann5, Paul D. N. Hebert1 1 University of Guelph, Biodiversity Institute of Ontario, Guelph, Ontario, Canada, 2 Natural History Museum, Department of Life Sciences, London, United Kingdom, 3 Honorary Attache´, Muse´um National d’Histoire Naturelle de Paris, Le Roc, Laplume, France, 4 National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC, United States of America, 5 Bavarian State Collection of Zoology, Section Lepidoptera, Munich, Germany Abstract Main Objective: We examine the extent of taxonomic and biogeographical uncertainty in a well-studied group of Australian Lepidoptera, the hawkmoths (Sphingidae). Methods: We analysed the diversity of Australian sphingids through the comparative analysis of their DNA barcodes, supplemented by morphological re-examinations and sequence information from a nuclear marker in selected cases. The results from the analysis of Australian sphingids were placed in a broader context by including conspecifics and closely related taxa from outside Australia to test taxonomic boundaries. Results: Our results led to the discovery of six new species in Australia, one case of erroneously synonymized species, and three cases of synonymy. As a result, we establish the occurrence of 75 species of hawkmoths on the continent. The analysis of records from outside Australia also challenges the validity of current taxonomic boundaries in as many as 18 species, including Agrius convolvuli (Linnaeus, 1758), a common species that has gained adoption as a model system. Our work has revealed a higher level of endemism than previously recognized. Most (90%) Australian sphingids are endemic to the continent (45%) or to Australia, the Pacific Islands and the Papuan and Wallacean regions (45%).

  • ESSAI DE CLASSIFICATION DES LEPIDOPTERES PRODUCTEURS DE Sole
    VOLU-"IE 33, NUMBER 3 207 for their achievements. I welcome the present revision warmly and recommend its subject to a wide circle of my colleagues interested in Lepidoptera. Unusual additions to this fifth volume are the sympathetic obituary of the third Editor of the series, the late Hans Reisser, and a fascinating review of the origin of the ten­ year-old series "Microlepidoptera Palaearctica," by its initiator and Editor-in-Chief, Dr. H. C. Amsel. A. DIAKONOFF. Rijsmuseum Van Naturlijke Historie Raomsteeg 2, Postbut 9517, 2300 RA Leiden, Nederland.

Original fascicles published 1897-1934 in Compte rendu des Travaux du Laboratoire d'Etudes de la Soie, Lyon, Facsimile reprints now available, published 1976-1978 by Sciences Nat, 2 rue Andre Mellenne, Venette, 60200 Compiegne, France. Price different for each fascicle, but varying from 42 FF to 99 FF each, Presently only available through Sciences Nat. This old classical series on Saturniidae (= Attacidae) and related moths has been quite rare and unavailable to workers. The series is particularly useful to taxonomists and of special interest to amateur students of Saturniidae. I own an original copy of fasc. 2 and can thus see that these reprints are accurate reproductions of the originals, except for size: originals measure ca, 19 X 27 cm and reprints are ca, 15 X 22 cm. It is now possible for both libraries and individual lepidopterists to own copies of these important works. The series resulted from the immense interest in these moths from their economic standpoint as silk producers, Several experts at the Silk Laboratory in Lyon authored the text, all in French, The figures are not colored, but are line drawings and some are done from photographs.

  • Edible Insects and Other Invertebrates in Australia: Future Prospects
    Alan Louey Yen Edible insects and other invertebrates in Australia: future prospects Alan Louey Yen1 At the time of European settlement, the relative importance of insects in the diets of Australian Aborigines varied across the continent, reflecting both the availability of edible insects and of other plants and animals as food. The hunter-gatherer lifestyle adopted by the Australian Aborigines, as well as their understanding of the dangers of overexploitation, meant that entomophagy was a sustainable source of food. Over the last 200 years, entomophagy among Australian Aborigines has decreased because of the increasing adoption of European diets, changed social structures and changes in demography. Entomophagy has not been readily adopted by non-indigenous Australians, although there is an increased interest because of tourism and the development of a boutique cuisine based on indigenous foods (bush tucker). Tourism has adopted the hunter-gatherer model of exploitation in a manner that is probably unsustainable and may result in long-term environmental damage. The need for large numbers of edible insects (not only for the restaurant trade but also as fish bait) has prompted feasibility studies on the commercialization of edible Australian insects. Emphasis has been on the four major groups of edible insects: witjuti grubs (larvae of the moth family Cossidae), bardi grubs (beetle larvae), Bogong moths and honey ants. Many of the edible moth and beetle larvae grow slowly and their larval stages last for two or more years. Attempts at commercialization have been hampered by taxonomic uncertainty of some of the species and the lack of information on their biologies.

  • Papua New Guinea I
    This cracking Wallace´s Fairywren was voted bird of thet trip. (DLV) PAPUA NEW GUINEA I 30 MAY– 16 / 20 JUNE 2018 LEADER: DANI LOPEZ VELASCO and JOSH BERGMARK Our first tour to Papua New Guinea –including New Britain- in 2018 was a great success and delivered a high number of quality birds. A total of 21 species of Birds-of-paradise (BoPs) - undoubtedly one of the most extraordinary, and “out of this world” bird families in the world-, were recorded, perhaps most memorable being a superb male Blue BoP, seen at close range near Kumul for as long as we wished. Just as impressive though were spectacular performances by displaying Raggiana and Greater BoPs in excellent light, stunning males King and Twelve-wired BoPs in the Kiunga area, a cracking adult male Growling Riflebird at Varirata, several amazing King-of-Saxony BoPs, waving their incredible head plumes like some strange insect antennae in the mossy forest of Tari Valley, great sightings of both Princess Stephanie´s and Ribbon-tailed Astrapias with their ridiculously long tail feathers, superb scope studies of Black –doing full display!- and Brown Sicklebills, uttering their machine-gun like calls, and so on. While Birds-of-paradise are certainly the signature family in PNG, there is of course plenty more besides, and this year the cracking and little-known Wallace´s Fairywren was awarded bird of the trip, ahead of BoPs, crowned pigeons and owlet- nightjars! We recorded a grand total of 33 species of pigeons and doves, -they reach their greatest diversity here in New Guinea, as do kingfishers-, including 11 Fruit Doves, and, during the extension, the rare Eastern Bronze Ground Dove.

In this talk he will show some photos from these caves to illustrate the sort of habitats where invertebrates can be found, as well as the invertebrates themselves and discussing the types of adaptations that cave dwellers display. Thanks for this year’s journal The Councillors of our Society put in a lot of work in the background to keep the Society functioning. Most of them have been doing this work for many years however there comes a time when people decide that they need to devote their limited time to other things. After our crisis meeting at the beginning of the year we were lucky enough to have two country-based members take on the tasks of two of the retiring Councillors. Robin Gunning has done a great job to get the journal completed on time. Garry Levot provided a lot of advice and technical assistance including doing the desktop publishing work. Mark Stevens is now working hard to get the journal mailed out to members and the subscribers.
