Phylogeny and Biogeography of Hawkmoths (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae): Evidence from Five Nuclear Genes
Phylogeny and Biogeography of Hawkmoths (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae): Evidence from Five Nuclear Genes Akito Y. Kawahara1*, Andre A. Mignault1, Jerome C. Regier2, Ian J. Kitching3, Charles Mitter1 1 Department of Entomology, College Park, Maryland, United States of America, 2 Center for Biosystems Research, University of Maryland Biotechnology Institute, College Park, Maryland, United States of America, 3 Department of Entomology, The Natural History Museum, London, United Kingdom Abstract Background: The 1400 species of hawkmoths (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) comprise one of most conspicuous and well- studied groups of insects, and provide model systems for diverse biological disciplines. However, a robust phylogenetic framework for the family is currently lacking. Morphology is unable to confidently determine relationships among most groups. As a major step toward understanding relationships of this model group, we have undertaken the first large-scale molecular phylogenetic analysis of hawkmoths representing all subfamilies, tribes and subtribes. Methodology/Principal Findings: The data set consisted of 131 sphingid species and 6793 bp of sequence from five protein-coding nuclear genes. Maximum likelihood and parsimony analyses provided strong support for more than two- thirds of all nodes, including strong signal for or against nearly all of the fifteen current subfamily, tribal and sub-tribal groupings. Monophyly was strongly supported for some of these, including Macroglossinae, Sphinginae, Acherontiini, Ambulycini, Philampelini, Choerocampina, and Hemarina. Other groupings proved para- or polyphyletic, and will need significant redefinition; these include Smerinthinae, Smerinthini, Sphingini, Sphingulini, Dilophonotini, Dilophonotina, Macroglossini, and Macroglossina. The basal divergence, strongly supported, is between Macroglossinae and Smerinthinae+Sphinginae. All genes contribute significantly to the signal from the combined data set, and there is little conflict between genes. -
Diversidade De Lepidoptera Em Santa Teresa, Espírito Santo
BOL. MUS. BIOL. MELLO LEITÃO (N. SÉR.) 11/12:71-118 JUNHO DE 2000 71 Diversidade de Lepidoptera em Santa Teresa, Espírito Santo Keith S. Brown Jr.1 & André V. L. Freitas1 ABSTRACT: Diversity of Lepidoptera in Santa Teresa, Espírito Santo, Brazil. The well-preserved, steep and heterogeneous environments of the region of Santa Teresa, Espírito Santo, shelter the richest known Lepidoptera community in the Atlantic Forest region (broad sense). The 533 species already recorded in the five best sampled families - Nymphalidae, Pieridae, and Papilionidae (butterflies), and Saturniidae and Sphingidae (moths) - are six more than the total listed for the next richest site (Itatiaia, Rio de Janeiro / Minas Gerais), and permit the prediction of a total fauna of at least 900 butterfly species. Many species in these five families are illustrated, and habitats and resources are given for the butterflies. Correlations, PCA, and canonical ordination show that the structure and richness of the butterfly community in 14 Atlantic Forest sites can be explained by local climatic, topographical, vegetation, and disturbance factors. The Santa Teresa fauna includes 12 species of Lepidoptera (with another 22 expected to occur) on Brazilian national or state lists of threatened animals, and a further 20 (with 11 expected) that are rare indicators restricted to the richest and most unique environments in the region. Preservation of the natural vegetation and traditional land-use patterns in the region should assure the continuity of this rich biota, derived from four different regions (the Bahia Hylaea, the Rio de Janeiro coastal plain, the Mantiqueira mountains, and the semi-deciduous forests in the interior). -

Prof. Moraes Rego, s/n, Cidade Universitária, 50670-901, Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil; email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. We present results of a year-long faunistic survey of Sphingidae of the Brazilian northern Atlantic rain forest. The study was un- dertaken between August 2003 and July 2004, at the Private Nature Reserve (RPPN) Frei Caneca in the state of Pernambuco. Hawkmoths were captured using a 250-watt mercury-vapor light trap positioned against a white wall. We recorded 379 individuals of 50 species in 19 genera. The most abundant species were Erinnyis ello, E. alope, Neogene dynaeus and Protambulyx astygonus, which accounted for 44.2% of the collected individuals. More than one individual was recorded for all but eight species. Hawkmoths abundance was lowest in the months with intense rain- fall. The sphingid fauna of northeastern Brazil is compared with that of the Amazonian and southern Atlantic rain forest as well as with the ad- jacent caatinga, a tropical dry forest with abundant succulent plants. Species composition of Sphingidae of the northern Atlantic rain forest was most similar to that of the Amazonian forest.

When Species Matches Are Unavailable Are DNA Barcodes
Wilson et al. BMC Ecology 2011, 11:18 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6785/11/18 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access When species matches are unavailable are DNA barcodes correctly assigned to higher taxa? An assessment using sphingid moths John James Wilson1*, Rodolphe Rougerie1,5, Justin Schonfeld1, Daniel H Janzen2, Winnie Hallwachs2, Mehrdad Hajibabaei1, Ian J Kitching3, Jean Haxaire4 and Paul DN Hebert1 Abstract Background: When a specimen belongs to a species not yet represented in DNA barcode reference libraries there is disagreement over the effectiveness of using sequence comparisons to assign the query accurately to a higher taxon. Library completeness and the assignment criteria used have been proposed as critical factors affecting the accuracy of such assignments but have not been thoroughly investigated. We explored the accuracy of assignments to genus, tribe and subfamily in the Sphingidae, using the almost complete global DNA barcode reference library (1095 species) available for this family. Costa Rican sphingids (118 species), a well-documented, diverse subset of the family, with each of the tribes and subfamilies represented were used as queries. We simulated libraries with different levels of completeness (10-100% of the available species), and recorded assignments (positive or ambiguous) and their accuracy (true or false) under six criteria. Results: A liberal tree-based criterion assigned 83% of queries accurately to genus, 74% to tribe and 90% to subfamily, compared to a strict tree-based criterion, which assigned 75% of queries accurately to genus, 66% to tribe and 84% to subfamily, with a library containing 100% of available species (but excluding the species of the query). -

VIII.1993 Abstract: A preliminary list of Ecuadorian Sphingidae is reported and 80 species are provi sionally listed; Xylophanes xylobotes is recorded for the first time, and Xylophanes zurcheri and Protambulyx goeldii are confirmed for Ecuador. Even though more than 150 species are recorded (Schreiber , 1978), the Sphingidae of Ecuador are systematically and faunistically very scarcely known if compared to those of other neotropical countries (Moss, 1912,1920; Seifert , 1974; Haber , 1983; Hexaire & R as - plus , 1987; Lamas , 1985). After the publication of the monographic revision of world Sphingidae by Rothschild & Jordan (1903), Ecuadorian hawkmoths were neglected by all but Campos (1931) who compiled a list of material collected especially in the Guayaquil area, and literature cita tions from Loja and Galapagos islands. Unfortunately many of his records are uneasily identifiable. During four field collecting trips done August 1981, December 1986, May-June 1992, and April-M ay 1993 the authors report on a preliminary Checklist of Sphingids of Ecuador. The species Marked with an asterisk, were collected at the given localities and otherwise records from literature are cited.
