  • General Methods Will Be Outlined in Chapter 2
    The Biodiversity of Abandoned Farmland Tom Fayle Gonville and Caius College April 2005 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy Mating Six-spot Burnet moths (Zygaena filipendulae) on the Roughs Declaration This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except where specifically indicated in the text. This dissertation does not exceed the limit of 15000 words in the main text, excluding figures, tables, legends and appendices. i Acknowledgements This work was carried out on the land of Miriam Rothschild, who sadly passed away before its completion. I would like to thank her for allowing me to stay at Ashton Wold during my fieldwork and making me feel welcome there. I would also like to thank the Eranda Foundation for funding this work. Various people have helped with the identification of my material and I am very grateful to them for their time. Brian Eversham was of great help in identifying my carabids and also took time out from his busy schedule to assist me for a day during my time in the field. Ray Symonds dedicated a great deal of time to identifying all the spiders I caught, a feat which would have undoubtedly taken me many weeks! Richard Preece identified all my gastropods, and I am grateful both to him and his student George Speller for passing on the material to him. Roger Morris verified the identification of voucher specimens of all the syrphids I caught, and Oliver Prŷs-Jones did the same for my bumblebees.

  • The Ecological Factors Governing the Persistence of Butterflies in Urban Areas
    THE ECOLOGICAL FACTORS GOVERNING THE PERSISTENCE OF BUTTERFLIES IN URBAN AREAS by ALISON LORAM A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Biosciences The University of Birmingham September 2004 ABSTRACT Previous studies have suggested that availability of high quality habitat rather than habitat connectivity or species mobility was the limiting factor in the distribution of grassland butterflies, but were mostly undertaken on specialist species in rural areas. Consequently, this project tests the hypothesis that the quality of available habitat is more important than patch size or connectivity to the persistence of four grassland butterfly species in the West Midlands conurbation. Two of the study species are widespread (Polyommatus icarus and Coenonympha pamphilus) whilst two have a more restricted distribution (Erynnis tages and Callophrys rubi). However, unlike species with very specific requirements, all are polyphagous and can tolerate a wide range of conditions, making habitat quality difficult to quantify. Several means of assessing habitat quality were developed and tested. A detailed vegetation quadrat sampling method had the best predictive abilities for patch occupancy and summarised the habitat preferences within the urban context. A model based upon habitat quality and connectivity was devised, with the ability to rank each patch according to potential suitability for each species. For all four species, habitat quality accounted significantly for the greatest variance in distribution. Connectivity had only a small significant effect whilst patch area had almost none. This suggests that conservation efforts should be centred upon preserving and improving habitat quality. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council URGENT Program.

  • Noctuid Moth (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) Communities in Urban Parks of Warsaw
    POLISH ACADEMY OF SCIENCES • INSTITUTE OF ZOOLOGY MEMORABILIA ZOOLOGICA MEMORABILIA ZOOL. 42 125-148 1986 GRAŻYNA WINIARSKA NOCTUID MOTH (LEPIDOPTERA, NOCTUIDAE) COMMUNITIES IN URBAN PARKS OF WARSAW ABSTRACT A total of 40 noctuid moth species were recorded in four parks of Warsaw. Respective moth communities consisted of a similar number of species (17—25), but differed in their abundance index (3.5 —7.9). In all the parks, the dominant species were Autographa gamma and Discrestra trifolii. The subdominant species were represented by Acronicta psi, Trachea atriplicis, Mamestra suasa, Mythimna pallens, and Catocala nupta. There were differences in the species composition and dominance structure among noctuid moth communities in urban parks, suburban linden- oak-hornbeam forest, and natural linden-oak-hornbeam forest. In the suburban and natural linden-oak-hornbeam forests, the number of species was higher by 40% and their abundance wao 5 — 9 times higher than in the urban parks. The species predominating in parks occurred in very low numbers in suburban and natural habitats. Only T. atriplicis belonged to the group of most abundant species in all the habitats under study. INTRODUCTION In recent years, the interest of ecologists in urban habitats has been increasing as they proved to be rich in plant and animal species. The vegetation of urban green areas is sufficiently well known since its species composition and spatial structure are shaped by gardening treatment. But the fauna of these areas is poorly known, and regular zoological investigations in urban green areas were started not so long ago, when urban green was recognized as one of the most important factors of the urban “natural” habitat (Ciborowski 1976).

  • Sherwood Forest Lepidoptera Species List
    Sherwood Forest Lepidoptera Historical and modern species lists and records - First Edition 2009 T. and D. Pendleton Introduction to Sherwood Forest Lepidoptera First edition 2009 One aspect of recording which has not changed since the 1800’s, is the lack of attention given by Lepidopterists to the site’s micro lepidoptera. Virtually all This publication is aimed at providing an accurate record of all Sherwood Forest micro records sourced from Carr’s book were attributed to R.E. Brameld, who Lepidoptera recorded from the 1800‘s, the 1900’s, post-2000 records and must have spent many hours in the field recording. Without his work, then much completely up to date with the inclusion of the latest records from 2008 and larger gaps would have appeared in the records. As it is, much work is still follows the same format as we have used in the accompanying publication required to record the many leaf-mining species which Sherwood Forest Sherwood Forest Coleoptera - 2009 Edition. undoubtedly holds. It is by no means a complete list and should not be treated as so, but Recent Lepidoptera surveys and recording represents a hopeful start on the way to producing a definitive Sherwood Forest site list, by trying to gather all available Lepidoptera records in one document. A great deal of moth trapping and recording took place at the Visitor Centre during the 1980’s and has provided some very useful data, which at some time This is the first edition of this project and includes traceable public records in the future, will perhaps be used to enable a comparison with more recent and those held privately by local naturalists and our thanks go to those records and numbers.
