  • Phleum Alpinum L
    Phleum alpinum L. Alpine Cat’s-tail A scarce alpine grass with distinctive purplish flower heads, long bristly awns and short, broad and glabrous leaves. It is associated with base- rich flushes and mires, more rarely with rocky habitats, and occasionally with weakly acid substrates enriched by flushing with base-rich water. In Britain it is more or less confined to above 610 m northern and central Scotland with two southern outliers in the North Pennines. It is assessed as of Least Concern in Great Britain, but in England it is assessed as Critically Endangered, due to very restricted numbers and recent decline. ©Pete Stroh IDENTIFICATION limit for both these species (540 m) is well below the lower limit for P. alpinum in Britain (610 m). However, P. pratense Phleum alpinum is a shortly rhizomatous, loosely tufted has been recorded as an introduction at 845 m near to the P. perennial alpine grass with short, broad, glabrous leaves (-6 alpinum on Great Dun Fell (Pearman & Corner 2004). mm) and short, blunt ligules (0.5–2 mm; Cope & Gray 2009). The uppermost leaf sheath is inflated. Alopecurus magellanicus, with which it often grows, has hairy, awnless glumes and ‘thunder-cloud’ coloured flower- The inflorescences are dark-blue or brownish purple, oval to heads (red-purple in P. alpinum; Raven & Walters 1956). oblong shaped (10-50 mm). The spikelets are purplish with long awns (2-3 mm) and the keels are fringed with stiff white bristles.

  • Climate Change and Conservation of Orophilous Moths at the Southern Boundary of Their Range (Lepidoptera: Macroheterocera)

Biogeographic relict, extinction risk, global warming, species richness, sub-alpine prairies Abstract. During the last few decades the tree line has shifted upward on Mediterranean mountains. This has resulted in a decrease in the area of the sub-alpine prairie habitat and an increase in the threat to strictly orophilous moths that occur there. This also occurred on the Pollino Massif due to the increase in temperature and decrease in rainfall in Southern Italy. We found that a number of moths present in the alpine prairie at 2000 m appear to be absent from similar habitats at 1500–1700 m. Some of these species are thought to be at the lower latitude margin of their range. Among them, Pareulype berberata and Entephria flavicinctata are esti- mated to be the most threatened because their populations are isolated and seem to be small in size. The tops of these mountains are inhabited by specialized moth communities, which are strikingly different from those at lower altitudes on the same massif further south. The majority of the species recorded in the sub-alpine prairies studied occur most frequently and abundantly in the core area of the Pollino Massif.

A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

  • Noctuid Moth (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) Communities in Urban Parks of Warsaw
    POLISH ACADEMY OF SCIENCES • INSTITUTE OF ZOOLOGY MEMORABILIA ZOOLOGICA MEMORABILIA ZOOL. 42 125-148 1986 GRAŻYNA WINIARSKA NOCTUID MOTH (LEPIDOPTERA, NOCTUIDAE) COMMUNITIES IN URBAN PARKS OF WARSAW ABSTRACT A total of 40 noctuid moth species were recorded in four parks of Warsaw. Respective moth communities consisted of a similar number of species (17—25), but differed in their abundance index (3.5 —7.9). In all the parks, the dominant species were Autographa gamma and Discrestra trifolii. The subdominant species were represented by Acronicta psi, Trachea atriplicis, Mamestra suasa, Mythimna pallens, and Catocala nupta. There were differences in the species composition and dominance structure among noctuid moth communities in urban parks, suburban linden- oak-hornbeam forest, and natural linden-oak-hornbeam forest. In the suburban and natural linden-oak-hornbeam forests, the number of species was higher by 40% and their abundance wao 5 — 9 times higher than in the urban parks. The species predominating in parks occurred in very low numbers in suburban and natural habitats. Only T. atriplicis belonged to the group of most abundant species in all the habitats under study. INTRODUCTION In recent years, the interest of ecologists in urban habitats has been increasing as they proved to be rich in plant and animal species. The vegetation of urban green areas is sufficiently well known since its species composition and spatial structure are shaped by gardening treatment. But the fauna of these areas is poorly known, and regular zoological investigations in urban green areas were started not so long ago, when urban green was recognized as one of the most important factors of the urban “natural” habitat (Ciborowski 1976).

The check list includes 216 species. The map of collecting localities is presented. Key words: Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Erebidae, Asia, Kazakhstan, Saur, fauna. INTRODUCTION The fauna of noctuoid moths (the families Erebidae and Noctuidae) of Kazakhstan is still poorly studied. Only the fauna of West Kazakhstan has been studied satisfactorily (Gorbunov 2011). On the faunas of other parts of the country, only fragmentary data are published (Lederer, 1853; 1855; Aibasov & Zhdanko 1982; Hacker & Peks 1990; Lehmann et al. 1998; Benedek & Bálint 2009; 2013; Korb 2013). In contrast to the West Kazakhstan, the fauna of noctuid moths of East Kazakhstan was studied inadequately.

FIELD STUDIES (http://fsj.field-studies-council.org/) RECORDING AND MONITORING RARER MOTHS IN THE YORKSHIRE DALES TERRY WHITAKER [email protected] Field notes on some of the Yorkshire Dales National Park’s rarer moths, and the activity of the Yorkshire Dales Butterfly and Moth Action Group in increasing our KnoWledge of their distribution and status. RESEARCH SUMMARY Yorkshire Dales Butterfly and Moth Action Group YorKshire Dales Butterfly and Moth Action Group (YDBMAG) started in 2002 as an initiative betWeen Butterfly Conservation, the YorKshire Naturalists’ Union and the YorKshire Dales National ParK Authority (YDNPA). Its aims and objectives are as folloWs: • To advise on habitat action plans affecting Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) Lepidoptera; • To devise species action plans for Local Biodiversity Action Plan (LBAP) Lepidoptera; • To monitor LBAP lepidopteran species. The folloWing initiatives have been promoted: • Increase public aWareness of LBAP species; • Increase KnoWledge of distribution of LBAP butterfly species; • Set up butterfly monitoring transects for LBAP species. These initiatives have included: • Setting up transects for small pearl-bordered fritillary and northern brown argus butterflies; • Surveys to discover the status and distribution in the YorKshire Dales National ParK (YDNP) of small pearl- bordered fritillary butterfly 2002, 2007-8 and 2013 and northern broWn argus butterfly 2002, 2007 and 2013; • Producing reporting postcards for common blue and green hairstreaK butterflies (2005-2007; 2006-2007); • Producing an identification guide to butterflies in the YDNP, With English Nature (WhitaKer, 2004); • Setting up transects in the small pearl-bordered fritillary and northern brown argus butterfly in the YDNP, by 2003. Currently, (2013), there are six UK butterfly monitoring scheme (UKBMS) transects in the YDNP.
