Voss1 ABSTRACT Forty-seven species in nine families of Lepidoptera (Hepialidae, Psychidae, Alucitidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Limacodidae, Thyrididae, Pterophoridae, Epiplemi- dae) are listed with earliest and latest recorded flight dates in Emmet and Cheboy- gan counties, which share the northern tip of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan. The records are from the principal institutional and private collections of Michigan moths and continue the documented listing of Lepidoptera in the region. ____________________ Emmet and Cheboygan counties share the northern tip of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, the former bordered on the west by Lake Michigan and the latter, on the east by Lake Huron.

  • The Moth Pollinators of Greater Butterfly Orchids Platanthera

    The Moth Pollinators of Greater Butterfly Orchids Platanthera

    JOURNAL of the HARDY ORCHID SOCIETY Vol. 11 No. 1 (71) January 2014 The Moth Pollinators of Greater Butterfly Orchids Platanthera chlorantha in Central Scotland Roy Sexton With essential help from the following moth recorders: Stuart Bence, Claire Bird, Lorna Blackmore, Tim Brain, Michael Christie, Jennifer Davidson, Bob Dawson, John Knowler, Barbara Macritchie, John Oates, Tony Rogers, Melissa Shaw. In his book ‘T he Various Contrivances by which Orchids are Fertilised by Insects ’ Charles Darwin (1862; 1877) speculated that the Greater Butterfly Orchid (GBO) was pollinated by large night-flying moths. He based his proposal on the following observations: i) the flowers were white and so would show up at night ii) the floral scent to attract pollinators was produced nocturnally iii) the sugary nectar to reward insect visitors was found at the end of a 26mm long conical nectary or spur. This could only be reached by insects with long tongues like butterflies or moths. Careful examination of the structure of the flowers led Darwin to propose that when moths drank nectar the club-shaped masses of pollen positioned either side of the spur entrance became glued to their large com - pound eyes. He speculated that the pollen mass was repositioned as it dried and twist - ed so that it was deposited on the stigmas of the flowers which the moth visited subse - quently. Naturalists soon caught moths with GBO pollen on their eyes consistent with this hypothesis, but it was the meticulous studies of Anders Nilsson (1978) a century later that provided detailed scientific sup - port. It is his Swedish observations that I have attempted to confirm on Scottish plants.

    Sherwood Forest Lepidoptera Historical and modern species lists and records - First Edition 2009 T. and D. Pendleton Introduction to Sherwood Forest Lepidoptera First edition 2009 One aspect of recording which has not changed since the 1800’s, is the lack of attention given by Lepidopterists to the site’s micro lepidoptera. Virtually all This publication is aimed at providing an accurate record of all Sherwood Forest micro records sourced from Carr’s book were attributed to R.E. Brameld, who Lepidoptera recorded from the 1800‘s, the 1900’s, post-2000 records and must have spent many hours in the field recording. Without his work, then much completely up to date with the inclusion of the latest records from 2008 and larger gaps would have appeared in the records. As it is, much work is still follows the same format as we have used in the accompanying publication required to record the many leaf-mining species which Sherwood Forest Sherwood Forest Coleoptera - 2009 Edition. undoubtedly holds. It is by no means a complete list and should not be treated as so, but Recent Lepidoptera surveys and recording represents a hopeful start on the way to producing a definitive Sherwood Forest site list, by trying to gather all available Lepidoptera records in one document. A great deal of moth trapping and recording took place at the Visitor Centre during the 1980’s and has provided some very useful data, which at some time This is the first edition of this project and includes traceable public records in the future, will perhaps be used to enable a comparison with more recent and those held privately by local naturalists and our thanks go to those records and numbers.

    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR13 G (Botolph’s Bridge, Hythe Redoubt, Hythe Ranges West, and Nickolls Quarry) The tetrad TR13 G contains a number of major local hotspots, with Nickolls Quarry, the Botolph’s Bridge area and part of Hythe Ranges located within its boundaries. As a consequence the tetrad has the richest diversity of breeding birds in the local area, with 71 species having a status of at least possible in the latest BTO Atlas survey. It also had the highest total of species (125) in the winter Atlas survey. Sadly a major housing development is now in progress at the Nickolls Quarry site and much of the best habitat is now being disturbed or lost. Nickolls Quarry has been watched since the late 1940s, though early coverage was patchy, particularly in the 1960s and 1970s. As a working quarry the site has undergone significant changes during this time, expanding from two small pits to a much larger area of open water, some of which has since been backfilled. During 2001 to 2004 a series of shallow pools were created which proved particularly attractive to waders. Nickolls Quarry in 1952 Nickolls Quarry in 1998 Looking roughly northwards across the 'old pit' Looking south-west across the site towards the Hythe Roughs towards Dungeness Although a major housing development is underway on the site it still contains some interesting habitats. The lake is easily the largest area of open water in the local area and so remains one of the best areas for wildfowl, particularly during cold weather, for example in December 2010 when there were peak counts of 170 Wigeon, 107 Coot, 104 Pochard, 100 Teal, 53 Tufted Duck, 34 Gadwall, 18 Mute Swan, 12 Pintail, 10 Bewick’s Swan, 8 Shoveler, singles of Goldeneye and Goosander, and 300 White-fronted Geese flew over.
