    JOURNAL OF THE L E PI D 0 PTE R 1ST S' SOC I E TY Volume 29 1975 Number 3 ROSTROLAETILIA-A NEW NORTH AMERICAN GENUS OF THE SUBFAMILY PHYCITINAE, WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF SEVEN NEW SPECIES (PYRALIDAE) ANDRE BLANCHARD P.O. Box 20304, Houston, Texas 77025 and DOUGLAS C. FERGUSON Systematic Entomology Laboratory, IIBIII, Agr. Res. Serv., USDA c/o U. S. National Museum, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560 In his revision of the Anerastiinae (auctorum), Shaffer (1968) showed that this subfamily, which had been separated by Ragonot (1886) from the Phycitinae on the basis of a single reduction character, loss or ex­ treme reduction of the tongue, was not monophyletic. On the basis of the genitalia, he showed that some genera should remain separate from the Phycitinae and be treated under the subfamily name Peoriinae, a name previously used in a much broader sense by Hulst (1890). The remainder of the Anerastiinae, including the genus Anerastia Hubner, were considered by Shaffer to belong to the Phycitinae. For lack of sufficient information or material Shaffer left unplaced a few genera and species which he discussed briefly at the end of his revision. These are taxa that had not been treated by Heinrich (1956) because he thought that they were Anerastiinae and thus not within the scope of his revision of the Phycitinae. The present paper offers a redescription of three of these unplaced species, namely Altoona ardi­ fer ella Hulst, Aurora nigromaculella Hulst, and Parramatta placidella Barnes & McDunnough, as well as descriptions of seven new species. We were able to assign the three existing species names with confidence because the types are available, and their genitalia are distinctive.

NATIONAL MUSEUM Washington Vol. 86 : 1939 No^ 3953 THE CACTUS-FEEDING PHYCITINAE: A CONTRIBUTION TOWARD A REVISION OF THE AMERICAN PYRALI- DOID MOTHS OF THE FAMILY PHYCITIDAE By Carl Heinrich INTRODUCTION This paper is the first of a proposed series dealing with the Amer- ican moths of the family Phycitidae. It is my intention to publish from time to time revisions of those groups that, in other orders, are usually designated as tribes, and to conclude with a general discus- sion of the family, synoptic keys to these groups and their genera, and, if circumstances permit, an illustrated catalog of the American species. The cactus-feeding group is treated first because names are desired for certain undescribed species reared in connection with the investi- gations of the Commonwealth Prickly-Pear Board of Queensland. For several years A. P. Dodd and his associates on the board have been experimenting with cactus insects in an effort to eradicate or control the pricklypear in Australia. Apparently they have been successful. One phycitid species, Cactohlastis cactorum (Berg), has been liberated in Queensland and New South Wales and seems to have established itself and attacked the "pear" with phenomenal suc- cess. Mr. Dodd has in preparation a book dealing with the experi- ments of the board and the life histories of the insects they have studied. It is largely in anticipation of that book that the present taxonomic paper is offered. 109335—39 1 331 ; 332 PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM vol.88 Eighteen genera, 46 species, and 2 varieties are here treated.

  • Impacts of Native and Non-Native Plants on Urban Insect Communities: Are Native Plants Better Than Non-Natives?
    Impacts of Native and Non-native plants on Urban Insect Communities: Are Native Plants Better than Non-natives? by Carl Scott Clem A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Auburn, Alabama December 12, 2015 Key Words: native plants, non-native plants, caterpillars, natural enemies, associational interactions, congeneric plants Copyright 2015 by Carl Scott Clem Approved by David Held, Chair, Associate Professor: Department of Entomology and Plant Pathology Charles Ray, Research Fellow: Department of Entomology and Plant Pathology Debbie Folkerts, Assistant Professor: Department of Biological Sciences Robert Boyd, Professor: Department of Biological Sciences Abstract With continued suburban expansion in the southeastern United States, it is increasingly important to understand urbanization and its impacts on sustainability and natural ecosystems. Expansion of suburbia is often coupled with replacement of native plants by alien ornamental plants such as crepe myrtle, Bradford pear, and Japanese maple. Two projects were conducted for this thesis. The purpose of the first project (Chapter 2) was to conduct an analysis of existing larval Lepidoptera and Symphyta hostplant records in the southeastern United States, comparing their species richness on common native and alien woody plants. We found that, in most cases, native plants support more species of eruciform larvae compared to aliens. Alien congener plant species (those in the same genus as native species) supported more species of larvae than alien, non-congeners. Most of the larvae that feed on alien plants are generalist species. However, most of the specialist species feeding on alien plants use congeners of native plants, providing evidence of a spillover, or false spillover, effect.

My goal is to learn more about my moth neighbours and, by sharing, inspire others to do the same. Light Source Thin White Cotton Sheet Photographer – Eric Auzins PowerPoint – Karen Auzins Species Identification – “Nature Buddies” Descriptions – Wikipedia, BugGuide In Ontario There Are 130 species of Butterflies 2840 Species of Moths Tiger Swallowtail Small-eyed Sphinx There are still moths that are not yet identified! June 6, 2020 Small-eyed Sphinx (Paonias myops) The Small-eyed Sphinx (Paonias myops) is a moth of the family Sphingidae. The hind wings (hidden in this photo) have small "eye" markings. It is found from south-eastern Canada to Florida and westward almost to the Pacific Coast and Mexico. The wingspan is 52–69 mm. Adults are on wing from June to September. The Sphingidae is a family of moths (Lepidoptera), commonly known as hawk moths. They are moderate to large in size and are distinguished among moths for their rapid, sustained flying ability. Their narrow wings and streamlined abdomens are adaptations for rapid flight. Some are capable of flying at over 5.3 m/s (12 miles per hour) The larvae feed on birches, hawthorns, poplars, fruit trees and willows.

The second author, after an expedition in the southern Bolivia (departments of Chuquisaca and Santa Cruz), had a series of specimens of the same taxon also identified as M. janeira (Schaus, 1892). Examination of the male genitalia of the Argentinean specimens showed several differences with the male genitalia of the lectotype of M. janeira. Molecular analysis with specimens of the two taxa confirmed the discrimination. The new species is described and a comparison based both on morphological characters and DNA barcodes with closely related species is provided.
