  • Lycaenidae, Satyridae)
    ENTOMOLOGISCHE BERICHTEN, DEEL 36, 1 .VII. 1976 105 Some new and rare Rhopalocera from Tanzania (Lycaenidae, Satyridae) by J. KIELLAND Oslo, Norway ABSTRACT. — Three new species of Tanzanian Rhopalocera are described: Baliochila pseudofragilis sp. n., Castalius stempfferi sp. n. (both Lycaenidae) and Coenyropsis carcassoni sp. n. (Satyridae). Acraea vuilloti Mabille (Acraeidae) is considered to be a distinct species. INTRODUCTION In the following lines three new species of butterflies will be described, and some attention will be given to a fourth species. The material originates largely from Tanzania. Most of it is collected by myself, but some specimens have been taken by Dr. R. H. Carcasson and Dr. A. H. B. Rydon. Baliochila pseudofragilis sp. n. (Lycaenidae), figs. 1—7 Extremely alike Baliochilafragilis Stempffer & Bennet, 1953. Male: Upper side fore wing orange yellow with dark, brown markings; costal border extending from base to about 2A of winglength, with two orange dots between costa and margin, one near distal end of cell and one beyond; the bar at the distal end of the dark costal margin is slightly less extended than in fragilis; there is only a trace of a fuscous bar at the discocellular; there are some fuscous scales invading the basal part of the cell; this is not normal in fragilis\ apex broadly dark-brown and tapering towards tornus; there is a notch of the ground colour cutting into the dark border in the middle of space 3; this is present in all the specimens before Fig. 1—4.

  • Biosearch 2004 Report
    Biosearch Nyika: Malawi 2004 Edited by Marianne J Overton FOREWORD Peter Overton It is ten years since the Biosearch Nyika project was first mooted and agreement with the Director of National Parks and Wildlife obtained for our exploration of the remoter parts of the Nyika National Park. Over this period the teams have focused mainly on the northern part of the park where patrolling has been very limited and our gathering of intelligence has been most helpful to the Nyika management. In 2004 we undertook the most challenging expedition to date, launched from the extreme north of the park at Uledi, a four-hour drive from Thazima. The team‟s first challenge was to cross the unbridged North Rukuru River with all their supplies. They then had to climb up the western escarpment of the Mpanda ridge to a point on the Mpero River, where they set up a Base Camp, from which to launch out on their surveys. The greatest achievement was to climb both Mpanda and Kawozya and discover the remote Bleak House, now derelict but offering stunning views over Lake Malawi and far beyond. At this point they could certainly claim to be in remote country since this old site is much talked about but very rarely seen by visitors. We have yet to have clear information about who built it, when and why. Perhaps it was a holiday „retreat‟ for Livingstonia or a staging post for missionaries who conducted business on the west of the Nyika National Park and into Zambia. In many ways this expedition was the pinnacle of logistical achievement.

  • Rain Forests of Sao Tome and Principe: Butterflies and Conservation
    Vol. 3 No. 2 1992 PYRCZ: Sao Tome Butterflies 95 TROPICAL LEPIDOPTERA, 3(2): 95-100 RAIN FORESTS OF SAO TOME AND PRINCIPE: BUTTERFLIES AND CONSERVATION TOMASZ W. PYRCZ Dembowskiego 23 m 6, PL-01784 Warsaw, Poland ABSTRACT.- The rain forest butterfly fauna of the African islands of Sao Tome and Principe are discussed. KEYWORDS: Acraea, Aganainae, African, Asota, Dixeia, Ethiopian, Hypolimnas, Lycaenidae, Mylothris, Noctuidae, Nymphalidae, Pieridae, Zizeeria. Sao Tome and Principe are a very well known territory among naturalists dealing with the Ethiopian region, especially among ornithologists and entomologists. The extremely interesting fauna of these islands comprises many endemic species. The forests of Sao Tome and Principe were included in the World Wildlife Fund's Biosphere Zones list. The International Council for Bird Preservation (ICBP) carried out a survey of 75 threatened forests in tropical Africa and the Malagasy region to determine those most important for conservation: in this survey the forests of southwest Sao Tome were ranked second. Most of the endemic butterfly species of Sao Tome and Principe were discovered and described at the end of the last century and in the first two decades of this century. However, the total number of Lepidoptera species inhabiting Sao Tome and Principe has remained unknown. Virtually nothing was known about the biology of the endemics, their correct systematic status, or even general information about the zoogeography of the butterflies of the two islands. Very few entomologists have visited Sao Tome and Principe in the last twenty years, first of all because of the restrictions imposed by the Marxist regime, in power since 1975.

  • BUTTERFLIES at AFI MOUNTAINS WILDLIFE SANCTUARY --- Report of Work Progress July 2010 (Update of Previous Report, Feb 2009)
    BUTTERFLIES AT AFI MOUNTAINS WILDLIFE SANCTUARY --- Report of work progress July 2010 (Update of previous report, Feb 2009) OSKAR BRATTSTRÖM ([email protected]) Previous efforts As far as I know the only published report of butterflies from Afi Mountains Wildlife Sanctuary is from a joint report on Cross River butterflies (Knoop & Warren 2005). In this report there is included at list of butterflies from Afi Mountains documented by Duke P. Knoop and Inaoyom Sunday Imong who collected within the sanctuary for some days (exact number not reported) and recorded 139 species. The species found in this survey are listed in Appendix 1. Some records have been deleted since new revisions in taxonomy/ phylogeography have made them obsolete (Falcuna gitte, Euriphene veronica, Euriphene simplex). Survey efforts I have surveyed butterflies at Afi Mountains Wildlife Sanctuary at four different occasions. The first two visits were just quick stops as tourist at Afi Drill Ranch and the “survey” consisted of visual identification and some photographic work and resulted in 101 recorded species. My initial experience of the region was positive and therefore two longer periods have now been spent (20 Nov-2 Dec 2008 and 11-25 Feb 2009) with the sole purpose of surveying the butterflies in the area. At both occasions Drill Ranch has been used as base for daily surveys but an additional five nights were recently spent at higher elevations (see special section). After this initial survey a first report was written (February 2009) and this report is an updated version of the previous report including new records from two visits made 25-27 Jun 2009 and 25-30 Mar 2010.

COLLINS FITCA EMMC Report Number B3 REPORT ON BUTTERFLIES FROM AFRICAN BUTTERFLY RESEARCH INSTITUTE TO FITCA August 9-16 2004 By Steve C Collins, ABRI Fieldwork: Peter Walwanda, Francis Ambuso, Brian Finch OVERVIEW: FITCA Project The regional project FITCA (Farming in Tsetse Controlled Areas) has a general objective to integrate tsetse control activities into the farming practices of rural communities such that the problem of trypanosomosis can be contained to the levels that are not harmful to both human and the livestock and environmentally gentle and integrated into the dynamics of rural development and are progressively handled by the farmers themselves. The project is hosted by the Inter-African Bureau for Animal Resources of the African Union (AU-IBAR) and covers areas with small scale farming in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and Ethiopia. EMMC (Environmental Monitoring and Management Component) is the environmental component of FITCA. It is implemented by ILRI in collaboration with CIRAD (as member of SEMG, Scientific Environmental Monitoring Group). This regional component has been charged with the responsibility of identifying of monitoring indicators and methodologies, as well as the development of an environmental awareness among the stakeholders. It contributes to propositions of good practices and activities mitigating the impacts and rehabilitating the threatened resources likely to result directly or indirectly of tsetse control and rural development.

    Biosearch Nyika and the Scientific Exploration Society Nyika Expedition 1999. Edited by Marianne J. Overton . FOREWORD C. Peter Overton Biosearch Nyika is a conservation research project involving international teams of enthusiastic professional scientists and amateurs working with the Malawi Department of National Parks and Wildlife, in the wilderness areas of the Nyika National Park in the north of Malawi. With a further two expeditions in 1999 we have now completed four in the current phase of exploration of the wilderness areas of the Nyika National Park. Added to earlier experiences in these remote regions we have now built up substantial experience working in the Park. Now, in partnership with The Scientific Exploration Society (SES), we have produced much information which we expect to be of great value to the Department of National Parks and Wildlife in Malawi, particularly on the extent of poaching. We have also published lists of insects, plants and small mammals. We have continued to provide new finds and extensions to the existing state of knowledge. In 1999, at the request of the Nyika National Park management, we conducted this September expedition to the south-eastern part of the Park. This has similar challenges of inaccessibility to the northern hills, and it is closer to the settlements on the Rumphi rivers, increasing the chance of interaction with the people from below. Although the Juniper Forest Area itself has been previously studied by a handful of authors, the hills to the south and south-east remained almost entirely unresearched and inaccessible to the scouts. This expedition would not have been possible without the joint expertise of the two partners because of the very short time scale involved in its planning.
