  • SYSTEMATICS of the MEGADIVERSE SUPERFAMILY GELECHIOIDEA (INSECTA: LEPIDOPTEA) DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of T
    SYSTEMATICS OF THE MEGADIVERSE SUPERFAMILY GELECHIOIDEA (INSECTA: LEPIDOPTEA) DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sibyl Rae Bucheli, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John W. Wenzel, Advisor Dr. Daniel Herms Dr. Hans Klompen _________________________________ Dr. Steven C. Passoa Advisor Graduate Program in Entomology ABSTRACT The phylogenetics, systematics, taxonomy, and biology of Gelechioidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera) are investigated. This superfamily is probably the second largest in all of Lepidoptera, and it remains one of the least well known. Taxonomy of Gelechioidea has been unstable historically, and definitions vary at the family and subfamily levels. In Chapters Two and Three, I review the taxonomy of Gelechioidea and characters that have been important, with attention to what characters or terms were used by different authors. I revise the coding of characters that are already in the literature, and provide new data as well. Chapter Four provides the first phylogenetic analysis of Gelechioidea to include molecular data. I combine novel DNA sequence data from Cytochrome oxidase I and II with morphological matrices for exemplar species. The results challenge current concepts of Gelechioidea, suggesting that traditional morphological characters that have united taxa may not be homologous structures and are in need of further investigation. Resolution of this problem will require more detailed analysis and more thorough characterization of certain lineages. To begin this task, I conduct in Chapter Five an in- depth study of morphological evolution, host-plant selection, and geographical distribution of a medium-sized genus Depressaria Haworth (Depressariinae), larvae of ii which generally feed on plants in the families Asteraceae and Apiaceae.

    Beitr. Eat. Keltern ISSN 0005 - 805X 52 (2002) 1 S. 225 - 233 31.08.2002 Contribution to the Lepidoptera fauna of the Madeira Islands Part 3. Elachistidae W ith 14 figures LAURI KAILA and OLE KARSHOLT Summary A review of the species of the family Elachistidae occurring on Madeira Islands is presented. Two species are recognised to occur there: Elachista encumeadae sp. n., which is placed in the Elachistapraelineata group, and Perittia. carlinella (WALSINGHAM). An earlier literature record of P. carlinella from Madeira is discussed. Descriptions are given for both species, and their adult habitus and genitalia are figured. Zusammenfassung Es wird eine Übersicht über die auf den Madeira Inseln vorkommenden Arten der Familie Elachistidae gegeben. Zwei Arten wurden festgestellt: Elachista encumeadae sp. n., in die Elachista praelineata Gruppe - gehörend, und Perittia carlinella (WALSINGHAM). Eine frühere Literaturangabe zu P. carlinella von Madeira wird diskutiert. Für beide Arten werden Beschreibungen vorgelegt. Die Falter sowie die Genitalien werden abgebildet. Key words Madeira; Microlepidoptera; Elachistidae; new species The Elachistidae (s. str.) (Gelechioidea) is a family of small-sized Lepidoptera. The lar­ vae of most species with a known biology are leafminers, mainly in monocots. Although the family is nearly cosmopolitan in its distribution, the majority of known species oc­ cur in the northern hemisphere (KAILA 1999a). Several species are known to occur on oceanic islands of the Atlantic Ocean. KLIMESCH (1990) records 5 species of Elachisti­ dae from the Canary Islands. One species, Elachista trifasciata (WOLLASTON, 1879), oc­ curs on St. Helena. No records are available from the Azores. There is only one impre­ cise literature record of a species of Elachistidae from Madeira (see below under re­ marks to Perittia carlinella).

  • Lepidoptera Bioblitz Nets Hundreds of Additional Species by Paul Opler, Colorado State University
    Lepidoptera BioBlitz Nets Hundreds of Additional Species By Paul Opler, Colorado State University Great Basin National Park held its sixth annual Bioblitz on July 12-14, focusing on Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths). The purpose of the BioBlitz was to discover as much as possible about the diversity of Lepidoptera in Great Basin National Park and to engage citizen scientists of all ages so that they learn about and foster a relationship with Lepidoptera in Great Basin National Park. Prior to the BioBlitz, 88 butterfly species were known in the park, based on a study by George Austin. Kelly Richers, who is building a computerized database of the moths of Nevada, showed 200 moth species for the park, 167 of which were Macromoths and 33 of which were Micromoths. A group of seven expert Lepidopterists was invited to lead the BioBlitz team. The experts were led by Paul Opler, Colorado State University, Fort Collins and included David Bettman and Chris Grinter, both from the Denver Museum of Nature and Science; Evi Buckner-Opler; Judy Gallagher, Virginia; Paul Johnson, Pinnacles National Park; Kelly Richers, California; and David Wikle, California. The Nevada State Entomologist, Jeff Knight, and his experienced crew also assisted with the event. Approximately 50 citizen scientists registered for the 2-day BioBlitz, including familes from Utah and Washington State, past taxonomist-in-the-park Ken Kingsley, members of the Bristlecone Audubon Society and the Toiyabe Chapter of the Sierra Club, a past artist-in-residence, and a professional photographer. The BioBlitz began at noon Sunday with an introductory workshop on Lepidoptera led by Paul Opler and Chris Grinter.
