The new species is assigned to Acleris Hübner, [1825] on the basis of the similarity of the male genitalia with other described species of the genus. The female genitalia are relatively modified and lack the pronounced lateral lobes of the sterigma characteristic of most Acleris. The new species has been reared from native and cultivated Rubus spp. (Rosaceae) at 3000 m elevation. KEY WORDS: Lepidoptera, Tortricidae, Tortricini, Acleris, new species, Costa Rica.

  • Regional Population Dynamics of Argyrotaenia Citrana in Northwest
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THIS OF Alan Lee Knight for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Entomology presented on April 3, 1986. Title: Regional Population Dynamics of-Argyrotaenia citrana in Northwest Caneberry: Phenology, Overwintering Survivorship, and Movement as Measured by Pheromone Traps and Larval Sampling. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Developmental requirements were determined for both larva and pupa as 503 and 176 degree-days (dd) above a lower threshold of 5°C. Adult emergence occurred from 300 to 700 dd accumulated from January 1st. Cumulative male emergence preceded female's by 50- 80 dd. A PETE phenology model modified to include a temperature-dependent female activity function to regulate oviposition significantly improved prediction of egg hatch. Two pheromone trap catch peaks occurred in fields with overwintering populations. The first coincided with peak male emergence; as female emergence peaked, pheromone trap catches declined. The second peak occurred after 750 dd and varied in size with the first peak. The influence of female moth/pheromone trap competition on temporal patterns of trap catch was studied in a semi-enclosed courtyard. Three distinct periods of pheromone trap catch interpretation each bounded by a specific ratio of active males-to-calling females were seen. Two trap catch peaks typically occurred. Field sampling of overwintering populations, laboratory temperature bioassays, and controlled field experiments demonstrated that age-specific differences in cold hardiness exist among larval stages and correlation of historical winter temperatures with pheramone trap catch suggests winter severity is a major factor influencing the timing of spring emergence. A large grid of pheromone traps canbined with larval sampling were used to assess regional overwintering survivorship and seasonal movement patterns.

The discovery by Leraut (2003) of the existence of a species closely related to Acleris emargana (Fabricius, 1775) is confirmed. It is shown that this was already known to lepidopterists in the first half of the 19th century, but like many Acleris names later regarded as only a form, the name Acleris effractana (Hübner, 1799) is the oldest name for the species. A neotype for A. effractana is designated. A. effractana is shown to have a Holarctic distribution, with occurrence only in the northern part of Europe.

  • Scientific Names of Pest Species in Tortricidae (Lepidoptera)
    RESEARCH Scientific Names of Pest Species in Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) Frequently Cited Erroneously in the Entomological Literature John W. Brown Abstract. The scientific names of several pest species in the moth meate the literature. For example, the subfamilial designation for family Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) frequently are cited erroneously in Olethreutinae (rather than Olethreutidae) was slow to be accepted contemporary entomological literature. Most misuse stems from the for many years following Obraztsov’s (1959) treatment of the group. fact that many proposed name changes appear in systematic treat- They even appear at both taxonomic levels (i.e., Olethreutinae and ments that are not seen by most members of the general entomologi- Olethreutidae) in different papers in the same issue of the Canadian cal community. Also, there is resistance among some entomologists Entomologist in the 1980s!

  • Five New Species of Argyrotaenia (Tortricidae: Archipini) from Mexico and the Southwestern United States
    Journal of the Lepidnpterists' Society .53(3), 1999. 114-125 FIVE NEW SPECIES OF ARGYROTAENIA (TORTRICIDAE: ARCHIPINI) FROM MEXICO AND THE SOUTHWESTERN UNITED STATES JOHN W. BROWN Systematic Entomology Laboratory, Plant Sciences Institute, Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture c/o National Museum of Natural History, Washington, DC 20560-0168, U.S.A. (e-mail: [email protected]) AND ASHLEY CRAMER Department of Biology, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131, U.S.A. ABSTRACT. Based on an examination of 187 specimens, five new species of Argyrotaenia are recognized from Mexico and the south­ western United States. A hypothesis of the phylogenetic relationships among the species is derived using Hennig86 to find the most paJ'simo­ nious solution to the distribution of 14 morpholOgical characters (5 characters of the forewing, 7 of the male genitalia, and 2 of the female gen­ italia). Argyrotaenia spinacallis Brown & Cramer, new species, from the State of Veracruz, A. unda Brown & Cramer, new species, from the states of Mexico and Morelos, and A. octavana Brown & Cramer, from the states of Puebla and Veracruz, appear to form a monophyletic group with A. ponera (Walsingham), from Puebla. The last is redescribed and illustrated. Although superficially similar, A. coconinana Brown & Cramer, new species, from Arizona and New Mexico, and A. bialbistriata Brown & Cramer, from Arizona (Cochise Co.) and Durango, Mexico, may not be members of the "ponera group" owing to their considerable divergence in male and female genitalia. Additional key words: phylogeny, ponera group, morphology, genitalia. With the exception of a single widespread Palaearc­ sonian Institution, Washington, DC.

  • Jumping Mechanisms and Strategies in Moths (Lepidoptera) Malcolm Burrows* and Marina Dorosenko
    © 2015. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd | The Journal of Experimental Biology (2015) 218, 1655-1666 doi:10.1242/jeb.120741 RESEARCH ARTICLE Jumping mechanisms and strategies in moths (Lepidoptera) Malcolm Burrows* and Marina Dorosenko ABSTRACT providing the initial impetus before the wing movements start to To test whether jumping launches moths into the air, take-off by 58 generate lift and forward momentum. Jumping also ensures that species, ranging in mass from 0.1 to 220 mg, was captured in videos large wings are not damaged during their first depression at 1000 frames s−1. Three strategies for jumping were identified. First, movements by contact with the ground or plant upon which the rapid movements of both middle and hind legs provided propulsion insect was standing. while the wings remained closed. Second, middle and hind legs again Lepidoptera are amongst those insects that can have large wings. provided propulsion but the wings now opened and flapped after take- Analyses of the complex movements of the wings at take-off into off. Third, wing and leg movements both began before take-off and flight by butterflies (Sunada et al., 1993) indicate that the forces led to an earlier transition to powered flight. The middle and hind legs produced by the wings alone are insufficient to achieve take-off were of similar lengths and were between 10 and 130% longer than (Bimbard et al., 2013). The implication is that the propulsive the front legs. The rapid depression of the trochantera and extension movements of the legs in jumping contribute the necessary of the middle tibiae began some 3 ms before similar movements of additional force.
