Bumble Bee Clearwing Moths
Colorado Insects of Interest “Bumble Bee Clearwing” Moths Scientific Names: Hemaris thysbe (F.) (hummingbird clearwing), Hemaris diffinis (Boisduval) (snowberry clearwing), Hemaris thetis (Boisduval) (Rocky Mountain clearwing), Amphion floridensis (Nessus sphinx) Figure 1. Hemaris thysbe, the hummingbird clearwing. Photograph courtesy of David Order: Lepidoptera (Butterflies, Moths, and Cappaert. Skippers) Family: Sphingidae (Sphinx Moths, Hawk Moths, Hornworms) Identification and Descriptive Features: Adults of these insects are moderately large moths that have some superficial resemblance to bumble bees. They most often attract attention when they are seen hovering at flowers in late spring and early summer. It can be difficult to distinguish the three “bumble bee clearwing” moths that occur in Colorado, particularly when they are actively moving about plants. The three species are approximately the same size, with wingspans that range between 3.2 to 5.5cm. The hummingbird clearwing is the largest and distinguished by having yellow legs, an Figure 2. Amphion floridensis, the Nessus olive/olive yellow thorax and dark abdomen with sphinx. small patches. The edges of the wings have a thick bordering edge of reddish brown. The snowberry clearwing has black legs, a black band that runs through the eye and along the thorax, a golden/olive golden thorax and a brown or black abdomen with 1-2 yellow bands. The head and thorax of the Rocky Mountain clearwing is brownish olive or olive green and the abdomen black or olive green above, with yellow underside. Although the caterpillar stage of all the clearwing sphinx moths feed on foliage of various shrubs and trees, damage is minimal, none are considered pest species.

Phylogeny and Phylogenetic Taxonomy of Dipsacales, with Special Reference to Sinadoxa and Tetradoxa (Adoxaceae)
PHYLOGENY AND PHYLOGENETIC TAXONOMY OF DIPSACALES, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO SINADOXA AND TETRADOXA (ADOXACEAE) MICHAEL J. DONOGHUE,1 TORSTEN ERIKSSON,2 PATRICK A. REEVES,3 AND RICHARD G. OLMSTEAD 3 Abstract. To further clarify phylogenetic relationships within Dipsacales,we analyzed new and previously pub- lished rbcL sequences, alone and in combination with morphological data. We also examined relationships within Adoxaceae using rbcL and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. We conclude from these analyses that Dipsacales comprise two major lineages:Adoxaceae and Caprifoliaceae (sensu Judd et al.,1994), which both contain elements of traditional Caprifoliaceae.Within Adoxaceae, the following relation- ships are strongly supported: (Viburnum (Sambucus (Sinadoxa (Tetradoxa, Adoxa)))). Combined analyses of C ap ri foliaceae yield the fo l l ow i n g : ( C ap ri folieae (Diervilleae (Linnaeeae (Morinaceae (Dipsacaceae (Triplostegia,Valerianaceae)))))). On the basis of these results we provide phylogenetic definitions for the names of several major clades. Within Adoxaceae, Adoxina refers to the clade including Sinadoxa, Tetradoxa, and Adoxa.This lineage is marked by herbaceous habit, reduction in the number of perianth parts,nectaries of mul- ticellular hairs on the perianth,and bifid stamens. The clade including Morinaceae,Valerianaceae, Triplostegia, and Dipsacaceae is here named Valerina. Probable synapomorphies include herbaceousness,presence of an epi- calyx (lost or modified in Valerianaceae), reduced endosperm,and distinctive chemistry, including production of monoterpenoids. The clade containing Valerina plus Linnaeeae we name Linnina. This lineage is distinguished by reduction to four (or fewer) stamens, by abortion of two of the three carpels,and possibly by supernumerary inflorescences bracts. Keywords: Adoxaceae, Caprifoliaceae, Dipsacales, ITS, morphological characters, phylogeny, phylogenetic taxonomy, phylogenetic nomenclature, rbcL, Sinadoxa, Tetradoxa.

Weigelaspecies and Cultivar Genome Size and Ploidy Estimations: Shrub Breeding©
Weigela species and cultivar genome size and ploidy estimations: shrub breeding© E. Pfarr and J.J. Rothleutnera Tree and Shrub Breeder, The Morton Arboretum, Lisle, Illinois 60532, USA. INTRODUCTION Weigela are among the most popular flowering shrubs for temperate landscapes as they tolerate a wide range of cultural conditions, propagate easily from cuttings, and flower heavily in late spring. The genus is composed of 10 species native to China, Japan, Manchuria, and the Korean peninsula. Since the genus was brought to western horticulture near 1860, over two hundred cultivars have been introduced (Dirr, 2009; Sheffield Botanical Gardens, 2015). Introductions continue today with breeding work emphasizing the development of compact plants, novel foliage colors, and recurrent blooming characteristics. One cultivar, ‘Courtalor’, Carnaval® weigela is widely promoted as a reblooming polyploid (Pantin, 2015; Wood). Because polyploidy may be associated with ornamental characteristics that breeders may be selecting for, such as reblooming, we set out to investigate the presence of polyploidy in natural populations and extent of polyploidy in available cultivars. This manuscript reports genome size and ploidy estimations for 10 species and 46 cultivars, from a total of 74 accessions. METHODS AND MATERIALS Plant material was sampled from plants growing at The Morton Arboretum, the Chicago Botanic Garden, and the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University. Genome sizes were determined by using a flow cytometer (CyFlow® PloidyAnalyser; Partec. Münster, Germany) with materials and protocols from Cystain PI absolute P test kits (Partec. Münster, Germany). Tissue samples were collected from expanding leaves and co-chopped with an internal standard, a leaf sample of Pisum sativum ‘Ctirad’, with a known genome size of 8.76 pg (Greilhuber et al., 2007).

Bankhead Ranger District Contact: Deciding Officer: District Ranger Glen D. Gaines Biological Evaluation Preparer: Biological Scientist Allison Cochran PO Box 278 Double Springs, Alabama 35553 Telephone 205-489-5111 FAX 205-489-3427 E-mail [email protected] [email protected] Type of Document Categorical Exclusion – BE Summary The proposed project will reduce midstory and understory trees and shrubs in two sites, totaling approximately 47 acres, noted on the attached maps. The project sites are located in the Black Pond and Hickory Grove communities. They are found in Forest Service management compartments 163 and 19. The sites proposed for treatment are loblolly pine stands. They were thinned in 2005 and 2006, respectively. Selected vegetation between 1 inch and 6 inches DBH will be removed in upland pine- dominant habitat. In compartment 163, the result will be an open pine stand with reduced fuel loading and advanced hardwood regeneration. In compartment 19, the result will be an open pine stand with reduced fuel loading. The result will allow for restoration and maintenance of native forest communities, including upland oak-hickory forest in compartment 163 and fire dependent pine woodlands in compartment 19. The purpose and need for the project is to improve wildlife habitat, improve conditions for native upland plants, restore and maintain native forest communities, and to decrease the risk of catastrophic wildfires by reducing fuels.
