    SYSTEMATICS OF THE MEGADIVERSE SUPERFAMILY GELECHIOIDEA (INSECTA: LEPIDOPTEA) DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sibyl Rae Bucheli, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John W. Wenzel, Advisor Dr. Daniel Herms Dr. Hans Klompen _________________________________ Dr. Steven C. Passoa Advisor Graduate Program in Entomology ABSTRACT The phylogenetics, systematics, taxonomy, and biology of Gelechioidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera) are investigated. This superfamily is probably the second largest in all of Lepidoptera, and it remains one of the least well known. Taxonomy of Gelechioidea has been unstable historically, and definitions vary at the family and subfamily levels. In Chapters Two and Three, I review the taxonomy of Gelechioidea and characters that have been important, with attention to what characters or terms were used by different authors. I revise the coding of characters that are already in the literature, and provide new data as well. Chapter Four provides the first phylogenetic analysis of Gelechioidea to include molecular data. I combine novel DNA sequence data from Cytochrome oxidase I and II with morphological matrices for exemplar species. The results challenge current concepts of Gelechioidea, suggesting that traditional morphological characters that have united taxa may not be homologous structures and are in need of further investigation. Resolution of this problem will require more detailed analysis and more thorough characterization of certain lineages. To begin this task, I conduct in Chapter Five an in- depth study of morphological evolution, host-plant selection, and geographical distribution of a medium-sized genus Depressaria Haworth (Depressariinae), larvae of ii which generally feed on plants in the families Asteraceae and Apiaceae.

Entre los nuevos registros aportados se incluyen tres primeras citas para la provincia de Lugo: Drepana curvatula (Borkhausen, 1790), Watsonalla binaria (Hufnagel, 1767) y Cimatophorina diluta ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775). Incluimos también nuevas citas de Drepanidae para otras localidades del resto del territorio gallego, entre las que aportamos las primeras de Falcaria lacertinaria (Linnaeus, 1758) para las provincias de Ourense y Pontevedra. Palabras clave: Lepidoptera, Drepanidae, O Courel, Lugo, Galicia, España, N.O. Península Ibérica. Abstract: Lepidoptera from O Courel (Lugo, Galicia, Spain, NW Iberian Peninsula) VII: Drepanidae (Lepidoptera). An updated and annotated list of the Drepanidae (Lepidoptera) know to occur in O Courel (Lugo, Galicia, Spain, NW Iberian Peninsula) is made, compiling the existing bibliographic records (only for two species) and reaching up to 13 species after adding new ones as a result of field work undertaken by the author. Amongst the new data the first records of Drepana curvatula (Borkhausen, 1790), Watsonalla binaria (Hufnagel, 1767) and Cimatophorina diluta ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) for the province of Lugo are reported.

Due to its prolific flower and fruit production, it was introduced into subtropical areas such as Florida and Hawai’i, where it is now naturalized and invasive. In an effort to find sustainable means to control R. tomentosa, a large-scale survey was mounted for biological control organisms.

    Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 48(1 ), 1994, 74-76 BOOK REVIEWS KEYS TO THE INSECTS OF THE EUROPEAN PART OF THE USSR (G. S. Medvedev, chief editor). VOLUME IV (LEPIDOPTERA), PART II, by M. I. Falkovit'lh (ed.) et al. 1990. E. J. Brill, Leiden. (translation of: OPREDELITEL NASEKOMYKH EVEOPEISKOI CHASTI SSSR, TOM IV, CHESHUEKRYLYE, VTORAIA CHAST. Nauka Publishers, Leningrad, 1981-trans­ lator: B. R. Sharma). x + 1092 pp., 675 figs. Hard cover, 16 x 24 cm, ISBN 90-04-08926- 8. $160.00 U.S. Available from E. J. Brill (U.S.A.) Inc., 24 Huclson Street, Kinderhook, New York 12106. This remarkable, bulky handbook is the second part of a work devoted to the Lepi­ doptera of western Russia. The English version of Part One was issued in 1987 (Amerind Publishing Co. Pvt. Ltd, New Delhi-edition supervised by the U.S.D.A. , Washington, D.C.), and it covered the non-ditrysian families (with only a superficial treatment of the Nepticulidae), and eight families among the lower Ditrysia, namely the Psychidae and dll members of the Zygaenoidea, Cossoidea, Sesioidea and Tortricoidea. Part Two deals with a larger number of families (29 if one accepts the classification that I proposed in 1991: see Entomol. Seand. 22:90-91). These are the Eriocottidae and Tineidae (including the "Euplocamidae" and "Hieroxestidae" ), all members of the Gracillarioidea, Ypono­ meutoidea, Choreutoidea, Urodoidea (Woekia Heinemann: p. 508, as a "plutellid" genus), Schreckensteinioidea, and Epermenioidea, and all the gelechioid families with the ex­ ception of most Coleophoridae (only the Amphisbatinae being treated: pp.
