We see that the recently proposed genera Neoapodemia Trujano, 2018 and Plesioarida Trujano & García, 2018 are closely allied with Apodemia C. & R. Felder, [1865] and are better viewed as its subgenera, new status. Overall, Emesis Fabricius, 1807 and Apodemia (even after inclusion of the two subgenera) are so phylogenetically close that several species have been previously swapped between these two genera. New combinations are: Apodemia (Neoapodemia) zela (Butler, 1870), Apodemia (Neoapodemia) ares (Edwards, 1882), and Apodemia (Neoapodemia) arnacis (Stichel, 1928) (not Emesis); and Emesis phyciodoides (Barnes & Benjamin, 1924) (not Apodemia), assigned to each genus by their monophyly in genomic trees with the type species (TS) of the genus.

C. Lee 1, Stacey J. Anderson2, Lucy T. T. Tran-Nguyen3, Nader Sallam4, Bruno P. Le Ru5,6, Desmond Conlong7,8, Kevin Powell 9, Andrew Ward10 & Andrew Mitchell1 Lepidopteran stemborers are among the most damaging agricultural pests worldwide, able to reduce crop yields by up to 40%. Sugarcane is the world’s most prolifc crop, and several stemborer species from the families Noctuidae, Tortricidae, Crambidae and Pyralidae attack sugarcane. Australia is currently free of the most damaging stemborers, but biosecurity eforts are hampered by the difculty in morphologically distinguishing stemborer species. Here we assess the utility of DNA barcoding in identifying stemborer pest species. We review the current state of the COI barcode sequence library for sugarcane stemborers, assembling a dataset of 1297 sequences from 64 species. Sequences were from specimens collected and identifed in this study, downloaded from BOLD or requested from other authors. We performed species delimitation analyses to assess species diversity and the efectiveness of barcoding in this group. Seven species exhibited <0.03 K2P interspecifc diversity, indicating that diagnostic barcoding will work well in most of the studied taxa. We identifed 24 instances of identifcation errors in the online database, which has hampered unambiguous stemborer identifcation using barcodes. Instances of very high within-species diversity indicate that nuclear markers (e.g. 18S, 28S) and additional morphological data (genitalia dissection of all lineages) are needed to confrm species boundaries.

MONASTYRSKII received 12.VI.2016 Abstract: Two new species and three new subspecies of Papilionoidea discovered in Vietnam between 2013-2015 are described and illustrated: Celaenorrhinus markus spec. nov., Faunis caelestis spec. nov., Dodona eugenes indigena sub- spec. nov., Horaga albimacula insulana subspec. nov., and Remelana jangala daoana subspec. nov. Six additional species in the families Nymphalidae and Lycaenidae are newly recorded to Vietnam. Introduction: Several taxa new to science and new to the country were discovered during studies of the Vietnamese butterfly fauna in 2013-2015. These observations span the entire country, including Lao Cai and Ha Giang Provinces (northern Vietnam, Dong Van and Meo Vac Districts) and Ba Ria - Vung Tau Province (southern Vietnam, Con Son Is., Con Dao National Park). The former area is saturated with species distributed throughout the Sino-Himalayan re- gion that penetrate into montane habitats in Vietnam along the Vietnam-China border. The latter includes an isolated butterfly assemblage, similar to continental species in southern Vietnam that have diverged enough to be considered as new subspecies. This descriptive work reports recent progress in my ongoing work to document the spectacular butterfly diversity of Vietnam (MONASTYRSKII, 2004; MONASTYRSKII, 2012).

  • Butterfly Extirpations
    RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 2018 Conservation & Ecology RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 66: 217–257 Date of publication: 19 April 2018 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:CFF83D96-5239-4C56-B7CE-8CA1E086EBFD Butterfy extirpations, discoveries and rediscoveries in Singapore over 28 years Anuj Jain1,2*#, Khew Sin Khoon3, Cheong Weei Gan2, and Edward L. Webb1* Abstract. Habitat loss and urbanisation in the tropics have been recognised as major drivers of species extinctions. Concurrently, novel habitats such as urban parks have been shown to be important as habitats and stepping stones in urban ecosystems around the world. However, few studies have assessed long-term patterns of species extinctions and discoveries in response to these drivers in the tropics. We know little about long-term persistence and utility of novel habitats in tropical urban ecosystems. In this study, we produced an updated and exhaustive butterfy checklist of species recorded from Singapore till December 2017 to investigate trends in butterfy extirpations (local extinctions), discoveries (new country records) and rediscoveries and how these relate to land use change in 28 years (1990–2017) in Singapore. Up to 144 butterfy species were identifed to be extirpated in Singapore by 1990. From 1990–2017, an additional nine butterfy extirpations have potentially occurred, which suggests a maximum of 153 butterfy extirpations to date. The rate of extirpations between 1990 to 2017 (< 0.33 extirpations per year) was much lower than the rate of extirpations between 1926 to 1989 (> 1.52 extirpations per year). The majority of potentially extirpated butterfies between 1990 to 2017 were species restricted to mature forests.

Bashar, S. Rahman and H. R. Khan Environmental Biology and Biodiversity Laboratory (EBBL), Department of Zoology, University of Dhaka, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh Abstract A laboratory examination was done on the morphometric variation of lycaenid butterflies. Identifying characteristics, viz. forewing length (FWL), hind wing length (HWL), body length (BdL) and antennal length (AntL) were used for the analysis. A total of 514 individuals of lycaenid butterflies was identified under two subfamilies Polyommatinae and Theclinae. Among them 265 individuals were placed under 19 species of Polyommatinae and 249 individuals under 25 species of Theclinae. ANOVA tests were conducted to find differences between the butterfly species of the two subfamilies through identifying characters like FWL (F=10.37, P=0.005), HWL (F=3.81, P=0.067), BdL (F=5.78, P=0.027) and AntL (F=2.77, P=0.114). A linear regression analysis of FWL, HWL, BdL and AntL of the species under the two subfamilies showed significant differences between Polyommatinae and Theclinae. These differences stand among the species of both the subfamilies and produced good results to identify the species more correctly. Key words: Lycaenidae, butterfly, species, morphometric variation, Polyommatinae, Theclinae. INTRODUCTION Morphometrics is the study of any quantitative measurement and analysis of morphological traits affecting on it (Digo et al. 2015). Lycaenidae is commonly known as „Gossamer-winged butterflies‟ comprising a huge number of species– an estimated 6,000 species worldwide, with greatest diversity in the tropics (Ackery and Vane-Wright 1984, Fiedler 1996).

  • A Review of Apodemia Hepburni (Lycaenidae: Riodininae) with a Description of a New Subspecies
    Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 45(2), 1991, 135-141 A REVIEW OF APODEMIA HEPBURNI (LYCAENIDAE: RIODININAE) WITH A DESCRIPTION OF A NEW SUBSPECIES GEORGE T. AUSTIN Nevada State Museum and Historical Society, 700 Twin Lakes Drive, Las Vegas, Nevada 89107 ABSTRACT. Apodemia hepburni Godman and Salvin (Lycaenidae: Riodininae) is reviewed. A new subspecies, Apodemia hepburnt remota Austin, is described from south­ ern Baja California, Mexico, based on 112 specimens. Both taxa of the species exhibit biphenism. Additional key words: Baja California Sur, Sonora, Mexico, A. palmerii, A. murphyt. Apodemia hepburni is a small metalmark (Lycaenidae: Riodininae) described from Chihuahua, Mexico (Godman & Salvin 1886). In con­ junction with a study of the phenotypically similar Apodemia palmerii (W. H. Edwards) (Austin 1987), I had the opportunity to examine series of A. hepburni in several major museums in the United States and those in a number of private collections. The degree of seasonal and geo­ graphical variation I noted prompted this review. Throughout, butterfly size (mean and range in mm) is the length of the forewing from base to apex. Specimens indicated by "M" and "F" are male and female, respectively. Capitalized color names are after Smithe (1975, 1981). Apodemia hepburni hepburni Godman and Salvin (Figs. 1-4) Apodemia hepburni Godman and Salvin 1886:468 (type locality: Pinos Altos, Chihuahua, Mexico); holotype male at The Natural History Museum, London (Miller & Brown 1981). The species was figured and very briefly described from a single male by Godman and Salvin (1886). I examined photographs of the type, a somewhat worn male without antennae and with a phenotype of the first brood.
