English Country Dance On Sanibel n July 26, a group of English country dancers came to the Sanibel Community House for a night of live music, interest- Oing patterns, and a roomful of friendly people who love to move to music. Dancers came from Sanibel, Fort Myers, and the Orlando area. If you've never heard of English county dancing, says Gillian Carney, a member of a local group, you may have seen it and not known. "If you've watched Pride and Prejudice or seen Sense and Sensibility or Emma at the movies, you have some idea of what it is like." It has been around at least several hundred years and the music comes from old ballads, classical music, and even operas. Dancers move in a number of specific patterns, not unlike square dancing; danc- ers don't need a partner. Each dance is prompted by a caller and they always do a walk-through before they begin. Wa-Ke Hatchee Recreational Center on Summeriin Road has started English country dance classes.

Anania coronata (Hufnagel), a Holarctic species of pyraustine crambid moth, has long been treated as having two geographically separated subspecies – the nominotypical Anania coronata in the Palaearctic Region and Anania coronata tertialis (Guenee)´ in the Nearctic Region. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analysis of mitochondrial DNA barcodes both recover four well-supported, reciprocally monophyletic groups within Anania coronata. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of genital structures reveal diagnostic differences that correspond to the four barcode lineages. On the basis of both molecular and morphological evidence, we conclude that Anania coronata is actually a complex of four species.

Summary A new genus Pseudognathobotys is described for two new species, P. africalis and P. diffusalis from the Afrotropical region.

Omwille van de sterk ontwikkelde pseudognathos neemt dit genus een speciale plaats in de systematiek van de Pyraus­ tinae. Introduction A new genus, Pseudognathobotys, is here described from specimens from the afrotropical region. It takes a remarkable place in the Pyraustinae because of the presence of a strongly developed pseudognathos (MAEs, 1998) in the male genitalia. The pseudognathos is usually poorly developed or absent in most Pyraustinae, here it consists of two strongly developed lateral arms on the tegumen, separated or medially fused, forming a strongly sclerotized hook. Munroeodes AMSEL, 1957 from the neotropical region has also a strongly developed pseudognathos (erroneously considered as a gnathos by MUNROE, 1964) but the morphology of the male and female genitalia is quite different in • 196 K.V.N.MAEs }?oth genera.

Spilomelinae and Pyraustinae form a species-rich monophylum of Crambidae (snout moths). Morphological distinction of the two groups has been diffcult in the past, and the morphologically heterogenous Spilomelinae has not been broadly accepted as a natural group due to the lack of convincing apomorphies.

  • Festschrift in Honor of Eugene G. Munroe
    FESTSCHRIFT IN HONOR OF EUGENE G. MUNROE Dr. Munroe receiving the Jacob Hiibner Award from ATL Chairman, J. B. Heppner, at the annual meeting of the Association for Tropical Lepidoptera, Gainesville, Florida, 18 April 1998. Festschrift is an interesting German word, traditionally used without translation in English titles. The word literally means a written work of celebration. Indeed, its use is in books dedicated to celebrate the work of some worthy scientist. And, so it is in our case. The authors herein dedicate their work to honor the lifetime of research by friend, colleague and fellow lepidopterist, Dr. Eugene Munroe, formerly of what used to be called the Canadian National Collection, part of Agriculture Canada, in Ottawa, Canada. Having already turned 80 in 1999, it is a fitting time to honor a lifelong pursuit of knowledge of the Lepidoptera. Dr. Munroe began his career with an interest in butterflies, but then tackled the huge mass of species of the Pyraloidea. Over the last 50+ years, he completed a great number of research papers, both large and small, thereby adding to our knowledge of these moths, particularly in the subfamily Pyraustinae. He has not only named a large number of new genera and species, but also has done extensive research on their higher classification. More recently, he completed an important rearrangement of the genera and species for the Neotropical pyraloid fauna, including many taxonomic notes. The collaborators for this special double issue give testimony with their papers to honor the lifetime achievements of Dr. Munroe. There are a number of other workers now studying the pyralid moths, but no recent researchers have yet achieved the sheer quantity and excellence of taxonomic research comparable to Dr.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This study deals with the taxonomy of seven species and subspecies of the genus Paratalanta Meyrick in China. Among them, P. furcata sp. nov. and P. annulata sp. nov. are described as new. The male of P. stachialis Toll & Wojtusiak, 1957 is described for the first time. Images of adults and illustrations of both male and female genitalia are provided, along with a key to all the known Chinese species and a map showing their distribution. Key words: Lepidoptera, Crambidae, Pyraustinae, Paratalanta, new species, China Introduction Paratalanta Meyrick, 1890 is restricted to the Palaearctic and northern Oriental regions. Species of Paratalanta can be recognized superficially by the pale yellow ground colour and the unusually narrow and elongate fore wing in male of some species. Putative synapomorphies shared by members of the genus include: the ventro-distally directed, spicula-shaped sella and the cornutus placed at the distal end of the phallus in the male genitalia, and the irregularly quadrangular antrum with spines on the posterior margin in the female genitalia.
