Diversity of Moth Fauna in the West Bengal State University Campus: a Pictorial Catalogue
International Journal of Zoology Studies International Journal of Zoology Studies ISSN: 2455-7269 Impact Factor: RJIF 5.14 www.zoologyjournals.com Volume 3; Issue 1; January 2018; Page No. 35-38 Diversity of moth fauna in the West Bengal state university campus: A pictorial catalogue Dr. Samir Kumar Saha Assistant Professor, Department of Zoology, West Bengal State University, Berunanpukuria, Malikapur, Kolkata, West Bengal, India Abstract An attempt has been taken to study the diversity of Moth fauna in West Bengal State University (WBSU) campus. A total of 30 genera were recorded under ten families from the study area from November 2017 to December, 2017. The family Erebidae with 12 genera followed by family Crambidae with 9 genera, family Noctuidae with 2 genera, rest of the family Arctiidae, Sphingidae, Pterophoridae, Uraniidae, Geometridae, Scythrididae and Stathmopodidae with 1 genus each were recorded inside campus area. As 30 different genera of moth recorded within a short span of time, it can be presumed to have a good diversity of moth species inside campus area. Keywords: moth, diversity, WBSU, West Bengal, India 1. Introduction Moth fauna. WBSU Campus is located in between 88° 25′ E Lepidoptera is one of the large order of insects that include longitudes and 44°46′ N latitude in the state of West Bengal, butterflies and moths and is probably one of the most suitable India (Fig. 1). groups for most quantitative comparisons between insect Photographs and observations were taken during the day light faunas to be valid, for the many reasons elaborated by hours.

ABSTRACT ZHA, CHEN. Evaluating the Dynamics of Anti-Fungal Compounds in Lepidoptera Larvae
ABSTRACT ZHA, CHEN. Evaluating the Dynamics of Anti-Fungal Compounds in Lepidoptera Larvae. (Under the direction of Allen Cohen.) Mold control is one of the most vital issues in insect rearing systems. Mold outbreaks can alter the nutritional value of the diet, do harm to the insects, and even threaten the health of people who work in insectaries. Antifungal agents are widely used in insect diets to suppress the growth of mold; however, the potential detrimental effects of antifungal agents on insects are always a concern. When there is a high level of antifungal agents in artificial diets, the growth, development, survivorship and fecundity of insects are often negatively affected. To study the mechanisms underlying those deleterious effects, nutritional indices were determined for two representative lepidopterans, a butterfly and a moth, Vanessa cardui and Heliothis virescens larvae reared on different concentrations of three widely used antifungal agents: methyl paraben, potassium sorbate and sodium propionate. These antifungal agents were administered in concentrations of 1,000, 5,000, and 10,000 parts per million (ppm). The results show that a high level of antifungal agents in the diets of these insects will suppress nutrient absorption and increase metabolic costs. Relative consumption rates and digestibility increased with increasing antifungal agent concentration, possibly to compensate for the declines in absorption and metabolism. Silk production and frass management by Vanessa cardui larvae were reduced in the presence of the highest level of antifungal agents.

Differentiation and Behaviour of Primordial Germ Cells
Recent Advances in Insect Embryology in Japan and Poland 255 Edited by H. Ando and Cz. Jura Arthropod. EmbryoL. Soc. Jpn. (ISEBU Co. Ltd., Tsukuba) 1987 Differentiation and Behaviour of Primordial Germ Cells during the Early Embryonic Development of Parnassius glacialis Butler, Luehdorfia japonica Leech and Byasa (Atrophaneura) alcinous alcinous Klug (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) Masahiro T ANAKA Synopsis Differentiation and behaviour of the primordial germ cells of Pamassius glacialis, Luehdorfia japonica and Byasa (Atrophaneura) alcinous alcinous are described. Tlie primordial germ cells of P. glacialis are formed through mitotic divisions and ivagination of.the cells at mid-line of the region about one-third of ventral plate;before.completion of formation of serosa. Those of L. japonica and B. alcinous alcinous appear in a group at the regions about one-third of the germ band before the inner layer formation. When the inner layer has formed, the primordial germ cells are sur- rounded by the mesodermal cells and come to be undistinguishable from surrounding cells. After the segmentation of ectodermal part of embryo and the metamerization of inner layer, the pri- mordial germ cells divide into two lateral groups in the fourth to sixth abdominal segments, and then they are carried to the lateral-inner sides of the ectodermal parts with the mesodermal cells. During this process, the primordial germ cells grow and assume their characteristic appearance. Their number on each side in the fourth to the sixth abdominal segment varies more or less among the species and individuals. One to four primordial germ cells are counted on one side of each segment in P. -

(Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) During Foraging and Courtship
Comparative analysis on visual and olfactory signals of Papilio xuthus (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) during foraging and courtship Jie Liu Chinese Academy of Forestry Mingtao Li Chinese Academy of Forestry Shunan Chen Chinese Academy of Forestry Lei Shi Chinese Academy of Forestry Xiaoming Chen ( [email protected] ) Chinese Academy of Forestry Research Article Keywords: visual and olfactory signals, Papilio xuthus (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae), foraging, courtship, buttery Posted Date: December 9th, 2020 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-118157/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/19 Abstract In this study, we examined the roles of visual and olfactory responses during foraging and courtship of the buttery Papilio xuthus. Our results showed that P. xuthus was sensitive to color in the range of 350– 500 nm. Visits of P. xuthus females and males to blue, purple, and red articial cloth owers were 54.90% and 39.22%, 19.61% and 35.29%, and 9.80% and 19.61%, respectively. Application of 10% honey on these articial owers resulted in an increase of 3.41 and 3.26 fold in ower visits by the buttery in comparison with controls. When 10% honey water was sprayed on colorless articial owers, ower visits reduced seven fold for females and two fold for males, indicating that both visual and olfactory perceptions play important roles during foraging. During courtship, four types of chasing were observed in a natural population of P. Xuthus. The four types are males chasing females (49%), males chasing males (25%), females chasing males (13%), and females chasing females (10%). -

Received: 12 May 2014; in revised form: 7 July 2014 / Accepted: 10 July 2014 / Published: 21 July 2014 Abstract: Mate finding and courtship involve complex interactions that require close coordination between individuals of the opposite gender. Well-organized signalling systems, sometimes involving a combination of signal modalities, are required to convey species-specific and individual information to members of the opposite gender. Previous studies of psyllids have focused on single-signal modalities and have largely ignored the potentially interdependent nature of different types of signals. Several studies have shown that semiochemicals play a role in psyllid mate finding. However, long-range semiochemical sex attractants, such as the highly volatile sex pheromones used by many Lepidoptera (molecular weights <300), are yet to be identified. The compounds identified thus far, namely 13-methylheptacosane (from Cacopsylla pyricola) and dodecanoic acid (from Diaphorina citri), seem to have short range activity or no activity under field conditions.
