Introduction Drepanidae (hook tip moths) are a relatively small, and well known family. Most of the species occur in South-East Asia with about 400 species in the Oriental region (BUCHSBAUM 2000, 2003, BUCHSBAUM & MILLER 2002, HEPPNER 1991). The Siamese Subregion, also called Indo-Burmese or Indo-Chinese region is one of the biodiversity hotspots in the world (BROOKS et. al. 2002, MITTERMEIER et al. 1998, MYERS et al. 2000, SEDLAG 1984, 1995).

    Sociality in Caterpillars: Investigations Into the Mechanisms Associated with Grouping Behaviour, from Vibroacoustics to Sociogenomics

    Sociality in Caterpillars: Investigations into the Mechanisms Associated with Grouping Behaviour, from Vibroacoustics to Sociogenomics by Chanchal Yadav A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy in Biology Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2020, Chanchal Yadav Abstract Social grouping is widespread among larval insects, particularly in a number of phytophagous larval Lepidoptera (caterpillars). Although the benefits of social grouping are widely recognized, the proximate mechanisms mediating grouping behaviour, such as group formation and maintenance, are poorly understood. My Ph.D. thesis takes a pioneering approach to understanding these mechanisms, specifically, by studying the roles of vibroacoustics and sociogenomics, using the masked birch caterpillar, Drepana arcuata (Lepidoptera: Drepanoidea), as a model. There are two main objectives of my thesis - (i) to test the hypothesis that caterpillars employ plant-borne vibratory signals to recruit conspecifics to social groups; and (ii) to test the hypothesis that differential gene expression is associated with developmental transitions from social to solitary behavioural states. For the first objective, I documented morphological and behavioural changes in the larvae, showing that there are five larval instars, and developmental changes in social and signalling behaviour. Specifically, early instars (I, II) live in small social groups, and late instars (IV, V) live solitarily, with third instars (III) being transitional. Instars I-III generate four signal types (AS, BS, MS, MD), instars IV, V generate three signals (AS, MS, MD). I then used an experimental approach to test if early instars employ vibrations during social recruitment, and found that vibratory signals are used to advertise feeding and silk shelters, leading to recruitment, with higher signalling rates resulting in faster joining times by conspecifics.

    Phylogenetic Relationships of the Tribe Operophterini (Lepidoptera, Geometridae): a Case Study of the Evolution of Female flightlessness

DNA variation in four nuclear gene regions, segments D1 and D2 of 28S rRNA, elongation factor 1a, and wingless, was examined from 22 species representing seven tribes of Larentiinae and six outgroup species. Direct optimization was used to infer a phylogenetic hypothesis from the combined sequence data set. The results obtained confirmed that Operophterini (including Malacodea) is a monophyletic group, and Perizomini is its sister group. Within Operophterini, the genus Malacodea is the sister group to the genera Operophtera and Epirrita, which form a monophyletic group. This relationship is also supported by morphological data. The results suggest that female flightlessness has evolved independently twice: first in the lineage of Malacodea and, for the second time, in the lineage of Operophtera after its separation from the lineage of Epirrita.

The Oxford University Museum collection of moths is very largely a collection of the types of Hope, Saunders, Walker, and Moore, many of the type specimens being unique and of great scientific value. All Walker's types mentioned in his Catalogue of Hetero- cerous Lepidoptera in the British Museum as ' in coll. Saun- ders ' should be in the Oxford Museum, as also the types of all the species therein mentioned by him as described in Trans. Ent. Soc, Lond., 3rd sen vol. i. The types of all the species mentioned in Walker's cata- logue which have a given locality preceding the lettered localties showing that they are in the British Museum should also be in the Oxford Museum. In so far as this work has proceeded this has been proved to be the case by the correct- vi PREFACE.
