November 2007 Phytophagous Noctuidae (Lepidoptera) of the Western Black Sea Region and their ichneumonid parasitoids Z. OKYAR & M. YURTCAN Abstract Eleven agricultural and silviculturally important species of Noctuidae and their parasitoids were determined in 33 localities from the Western Black Sea region between 2001 and 2004. The ichneumonid biological control agents Enicospilus ramidulus, Barylypa amabilis and Itoplectis alternans were obtained by rearing the host larvae. K e y w o r d s : Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae, parasitoidism, Western Black Sea Region, Turkey Zusammenfassung 11 land- und forstwirtschaftlich bedeutende Noctuidae-Arten einschließlich ihrer Parasitoide aus 33 Standorten des Gebietes des westlichen Schwarzen Meeres wurden im Zeitraum 2001 bis 2004 studiert. Ichneumonidae der Arten Enicospilus ramidulus, Barylypa amabilis and Itoplectis alternans konnten durch Aufzucht der Wirtslarven festgestellt werden. 377 ©Entomofauna Ansfelden/Austria; download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Introduction The Noctuidae is the largest family of the Lepidoptera. Larvae of some species are par- ticularly harmful to agricultural and silvicultural regions worldwide. Consequently, for years intense efforts have been carried out to control them through chemical, biological, and cultural methods (LIBURD et al. 2000; HOBALLAH et al. 2004; TOPRAK & GÜRKAN 2005). In the field, noctuid control is often carried out by parasitoid wasps (CHO et al. 2006). Ichneumonids are one of the most prevalent parasitoid groups of noctuids but they also parasitize on other many Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, Diptera and Araneae (KASPARYAN 1981; FITTON et al. 1987, 1988; GAULD & BOLTON 1988; WAHL 1993; GEORGIEV & KOLAROV 1999).

Sv ir id o v received 24.II.2000 Summary: 630 species of the Noctuidae are listed for the modern Volgo-Ural fauna. 2 species [Mesapamea hedeni Graeser and Amphidrina amurensis Staudinger ) are noted from Europe for the first time and one more— Nycteola siculana Fuchs —from Russia. 3 species ( Catocala optata Godart , Helicoverpa obsoleta Fabricius , Pseudohadena minuta Pungeler ) are deleted from the list. Supposedly they were either erroneously determinated or incorrect noted from the region under consideration since Eversmann 's work. 289 species are recorded from the re­ gion in addition to Eversmann 's list. This paper is the fifth in a series of publications1 dealing with the composition of the pres­ ent-day fauna of noctuid-moths in the Middle Volga and the south-western Cisurals. This re­ gion comprises the administrative divisions of the Astrakhan, Volgograd, Saratov, Samara, Uljanovsk, Orenburg, Uralsk and Atyraus (= Gurjev) Districts, together with Tataria and Bash­ kiria.

    以黃豹天蠶蛾屬為例 Evolutionary Plasticity and Functional Diversity of Eyespot Wing Pattern in Loepa Silkmoths

    國立中山大學生物科學系 碩士論文 Department of Biological Sciences National Sun Yat-sen University Master Thesis 翅面眼紋之演化可塑性與功能多樣性－ 以黃豹天蠶蛾屬為例 Evolutionary plasticity and functional diversity of eyespot wing pattern in Loepa silkmoths 研究生：蘇昱任 Yu-Jen Su 指導教授：顏聖紘 博士 Dr. Shen-Horn Yen 中華民國 106 年 7 月 July 2017 致 謝 非常感謝顏聖紘副教授，不辭辛勞地從我一開始入學對研究毫無頭緒，到制 定研究方向與題目、想法討論、方法的修改與問題指正，以及海報與論文等書面 修正等，一路指導教育我。 感謝小鳥們健康的活著陪我完成研究，沒有因為被我做的假餌嚇到而拒絕進 食或行為異常。 曾經在研究過程中提供給我幫助的朋友們：陳鍾瑋，引發我部份實驗設計的 構想。陳怡潔，提供我鳥類飼養與部分研究基礎認知。韋家軒，提出我實驗設計 上的缺失並點出我思考方向與研究中可能遭遇的問題與癥結。杜士豪、周育霆、 楊昕，協助我飼養鳥隻。非常謝謝你們的幫助。此外還有不少朋友們，在研究以 外的事務上提供我不少協助，使我能有更多心力專注於研究，感謝各位提供的幫 助，雖然無法將你們的名字在此一一列出，但你們的功勞我依然會銘記在心。 另外感謝一些商家與團體所提供無償的協助：中華民國生物奧林匹亞委員會， 借我使用攝影器材與印刷設備。社團法人高雄市野鳥協會，提供部分實驗用的鳥 隻。北站鳥園、五甲鳥藝坊、藍寶石鳥獸寵物大賣場，提供我不同鳥類飼養的技 巧與經驗分享。 最後我要在此鄭重感謝，高雄醫學大學生物醫學暨環境生物學系，謝寶森副 教授，以及國立中山大學生物科學系，黃淑萍助理教授。兩位老師願意抽空擔任 口試委員，並在短時間內閱讀與修改我的論文，提供我論文修訂上莫大的幫助。 iii 摘 要 眼紋(eye spot)是一種近圓形且具有同心圓環的斑紋。眼紋存在於許多動物體 表，目前最廣為人知的功能是防禦天敵。眼紋禦敵的機制包含威嚇天敵或誘導攻 擊失誤。黃豹天蠶蛾(Loepa)是天蠶蛾科(Saturniidae)下的一屬夜行性蛾類，其屬內 所有物種皆具有眼紋，但研究不如日行性的蛺蝶如此豐富透徹。黃豹天蠶蛾的翅 面斑紋變化不像蛺蝶那麼複雜，僅具有弧度或位置上些微差異，眼紋位置也相似， 推斷應有相同的禦敵機制，但卻在尺寸上有劇烈的變化，甚至有少數物種具有其 他斑紋使眼紋醒目程度下降或比眼紋更顯眼。這些變化與誠實訊號(honest signaling) 及威嚇理論有所牴觸，因此我們認為有必要釐清黃豹天蠶蛾眼紋的變化與其功能 性。首先我們分析了黃豹天蠶蛾所有物種的翅面紋路，歸納出翅紋的模式與少數 具其他斑紋的物種。然而因為黃豹天蠶蛾翅面具大面積黃色，鳥類可能會具有先 天色彩偏見，因此利用人工假餌檢測鳥類先天色彩偏見，之後才進行眼紋尺寸的 變化與其功能性差異的檢測。最後檢測部分具有其他斑紋的物種，這些斑紋是否 具有不同禦敵功效。結果顯示，黃豹天蠶蛾的眼紋效果確實與威嚇理論相符，但 是遭遇不同天敵時的效果有所差異。具有其他斑紋的少數物種在特定情況下反而 能呈現隱蔽作用，而比眼紋顯眼的斑紋則也有類似眼紋的威嚇作用。因此我們認 為在探討斑紋功能時，除了檢測現有功能假說外，還要考慮掠食者的認知多樣性 及共域物種的性狀，亦不可忽略其有功能多樣性的可能，如此才能更了解真實的 獵物-獵食者關係。 關鍵字：眼紋(Eye spot)、黃豹天蠶蛾(Loepa)、威嚇作用(Intimidating

Abstract: Lepidoptera from O Courel (Lugo, Galicia, Spain, NW Iberian Peninsula) VII: Drepanidae (Lepidoptera). An updated and annotated list of the Drepanidae (Lepidoptera) know to occur in O Courel (Lugo, Galicia, Spain, NW Iberian Peninsula) is made, compiling the existing bibliographic records (only for two species) and reaching up to 13 species after adding new ones as a result of field work undertaken by the author. Amongst the new data the first records of Drepana curvatula (Borkhausen, 1790), Watsonalla binaria (Hufnagel, 1767) and Cimatophorina diluta ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) for the province of Lugo are reported.

    Biological Surveys at Hunsbury Hill Country Park 2018

    FRIENDS OF WEST HUNSBURY PARKS BIOLOGICAL SURVEYS AT HUNSBURY HILL COUNTRY PARK 2018 Ryan Clark Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre April 2019 Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre Introduction Biological records tell us which species are present on sites and are essential in informing the conservation and management of wildlife. In 2018, the Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre ran a number of events to encourage biological recording at Hunsbury Hill Fort as part of the Friends of West Hunsbury Park’s project, which is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Hunsbury Hill Country Park is designated as a Local Wildlife Site (LWS). There are approximately 700 Local Wildlife Sites in Northamptonshire. Local Wildlife Sites create a network of areas, which are important as refuges for wildlife or wildlife corridors. Hunsbury Hill Country Park was designated as a LWS in 1992 for its woodland flora and the variety of habitats that the site possesses. The site also has a Local Geological Site (LGS) which highlights the importance of this site for its geology as well as biodiversity. This will be surveyed by the local geological group in due course. Hunsbury Hill Country Park Local Wildlife Site Boundary 1 Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre (NBRC) supports the recording, curation and sharing of quality verified environmental information for sound decision-making. We hold nearly a million biological records covering a variety of different species groups. Before the start of this project, we looked to see which species had been recorded at the site. We were surprised to find that the only records we have for the site have come from Local Wildlife Site Surveys, which assess the quality of the site and focus on vascular plants, with some casual observations of other species noted too.

We explore the influence of each gene region on the support given to each node of the most parsimonious tree derived from a combined analysis of all three genes using Partitioned Bremer Support. We also explore the influence of assuming equal weights for all characters in the combined analysis by investigating the stability of clades to different transition/transversion weighting schemes. We find many strongly supported and stable clades in the Nymphalinae. We are also able to identify ‘rogue’

E-mail: [email protected] The paper contains data on the fauna of the Lepidoptera families Erebidae (excluding subfamilies Lymantriinae and Arctiinae) and Noctuidae of the Saur Mountains (East Kazakhstan). The check list includes 216 species. The map of collecting localities is presented. Key words: Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Erebidae, Asia, Kazakhstan, Saur, fauna. INTRODUCTION The fauna of noctuoid moths (the families Erebidae and Noctuidae) of Kazakhstan is still poorly studied. Only the fauna of West Kazakhstan has been studied satisfactorily (Gorbunov 2011). On the faunas of other parts of the country, only fragmentary data are published (Lederer, 1853; 1855; Aibasov & Zhdanko 1982; Hacker & Peks 1990; Lehmann et al. 1998; Benedek & Bálint 2009; 2013; Korb 2013). In contrast to the West Kazakhstan, the fauna of noctuid moths of East Kazakhstan was studied inadequately.

A total of 173 species is reported here, comprising 97 Crambidae and 76 Pyralidae. Based upon published data, 29 species appear to be new to the fauna of Serbia, 5 species are new to the fauna of Macedonia and 37 are new to the fauna of Albania. The data are discussed.
