Additions, Deletions and Corrections to An
Bulletin of the Irish Biogeographical Society No. 36 (2012) ADDITIONS, DELETIONS AND CORRECTIONS TO AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST OF THE IRISH BUTTERFLIES AND MOTHS (LEPIDOPTERA) WITH A CONCISE CHECKLIST OF IRISH SPECIES AND ELACHISTA BIATOMELLA (STAINTON, 1848) NEW TO IRELAND K. G. M. Bond1 and J. P. O’Connor2 1Department of Zoology and Animal Ecology, School of BEES, University College Cork, Distillery Fields, North Mall, Cork, Ireland. e-mail: <[email protected]> 2Emeritus Entomologist, National Museum of Ireland, Kildare Street, Dublin 2, Ireland. Abstract Additions, deletions and corrections are made to the Irish checklist of butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera). Elachista biatomella (Stainton, 1848) is added to the Irish list. The total number of confirmed Irish species of Lepidoptera now stands at 1480. Key words: Lepidoptera, additions, deletions, corrections, Irish list, Elachista biatomella Introduction Bond, Nash and O’Connor (2006) provided a checklist of the Irish Lepidoptera. Since its publication, many new discoveries have been made and are reported here. In addition, several deletions have been made. A concise and updated checklist is provided. The following abbreviations are used in the text: BM(NH) – The Natural History Museum, London; NMINH – National Museum of Ireland, Natural History, Dublin. The total number of confirmed Irish species now stands at 1480, an addition of 68 since Bond et al. (2006). Taxonomic arrangement As a result of recent systematic research, it has been necessary to replace the arrangement familiar to British and Irish Lepidopterists by the Fauna Europaea [FE] system used by Karsholt 60 Bulletin of the Irish Biogeographical Society No. 36 (2012) and Razowski, which is widely used in continental Europe. -

Newsletter 79
Norfolk Moth Survey c/o Natural History Dept., Castle Museum, Norwich, NR1 3JU Newsletter No.79 April 2011 INTRODUCTION Following the cold winter, we have already experienced some warmer days – and a few warmer nights, of course – as the new season gets underway again. Some recorders have reported reasonable catches, and some very interesting records. As well as a goodly number of Small Eggar sightings, two of the micros, Pammene giganteana and Acleris literana, are respectively the first and second Norfolk records for about a century. So far, we have two new additions to the county list to report, Ectoedemia heringella and Ocnerostoma friesei. The first of these is a leaf miner on holm oak, which apparently only arrived in Britain in 2002. It has been spreading slowly ever since and is well worth keeping a lookout for. Some exciting records have also been forthcoming following recent re-examination of some of the lepidoptera collections housed at the Castle Museum. These include a stunning specimen of Argent & Sable, bred from Costessey in 1935, together with confirmation of a couple of specimens of the rarer Cnephasias – pasiuana and conspersana. As well as the collections per se, it has been interesting to learn a bit about the lives of some the earlier entomologists working in the county. If they were alive today, I feel sure they would have been involved with NMS! Jim Wheeler has added some information to the website. Please go to www.norfolkmoths.org.uk/collections.php We must also add our thanks for all his help to Tony Irwin at the Castle. -
Wales Moth List 2019
Wales Moth List (Provisional) A list of all the moth species known to have been recorded in Wales, including species that have been recorded rarely or once only, and which may not have resident breeding populations in Wales. Includes records that may be historic only and species that are now thought to be extinct in Wales (e.g. Conformist). Compiled by Butterfly Conservation Wales using lists supplied by County Moth Recorders. Complete with records up to and including 2019 (2019 new records marked as such). Covers the 13 Welsh vice-counties: Monmouthshire (VC35), Glamorgan (VC41), Breconshire (VC42), Radnorshire (VC43), Carmarthenshire (VC44), Pembrokeshire (VC45), Cardiganshire (VC46), Montgomeryshire (VC47), Merionethshire (VC48), Caernarvonshire (VC49), Denbighshire (VC50), Flintshire (VC51) & Anglesey (VC52). U = Unsupported. These are moth records which are not supported by a full record and hence may be missing from the county datasets, despite being present on MBGBI maps. List order follows Agassiz, Beavan and Heckford (ABH) Checklist of the Lepidoptera of the British Isles (2013) and including recent changes to the list. Bradley & Fletcher (B&F) numbers are also provided. Names are based on the ABH chcklist; for the micro-moths some additional English names in regular use are also included.

Identification of Leaf-Mining Lepidoptera
THE IDENTIFICATION OF LEAF-MINING LEPIDOPTERA INTRODUCTION The aim of this booklet is to enable the user to identify most of the leaf-mining lepidoptera. It is not possible to cover all the leaf-mining species in such a small booklet, however over 90% of the true mining species should be identifiable with its use. The guide has been kept as simple as possible. Along with the usual keys I have added a chart on hawthorn to assist with the identification of the Nepticulidae. Much of the information contained herein is gleaned from volumes 1 and 2 of “The Moths and Butterflies of Great Britain and Ireland” with some addition notes supplied by A. Maitland Emmet along with the occasional modification of my own. I have also included within the birch feeding miners a key written by David Manning on the Eriocraniidae. A word of warning before you start to look at mines, some flies, beetles, wasps and sawflies also produce larvae that mine leaves, so it is possible that these could be mistaken for lepidopterous mines. A good guide is that the larvae of the Nepticulidae usually leave their frass, droppings, in a continuous line and the larvae of the Gracillariidae usually pile their frass in a particular place inside the mine; there are, of course, a few exceptions to this. Generally flies etc. leave their frass in irregular patches and usually there is much less frass in the mines of flies etc. than in those produced by lepidoptera. A further guide is to look at the list of foodplants which follows, if the plant you have found a mine in is not in this list it is quite likely that it will not be a lepidopteran mine. -

Appropriately managed grazing will deliver a variety of benefits for flora and fauna on such sites. However, inappropriate grazing can have serious adverse consequences for such organisms unless their needs are taken into account. This report sets out a process, called Grazing Impact Assessment (GIA), that helps identify and assess potentially adverse impacts of grazing on sensitive fauna. -

BIOLOGICAL CONTROL of Marmara Gulosa GUILLÉN and DAVIS in the SAN
BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF Marmara gulosa GUILLÉN AND DAVIS IN THE SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Agriculture, with Specialization in Crop Science by Crystal Allina Kirkland February 2009 © 2009 Crystal Allina Kirkland ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP TITLE: Biological control of Marmara gulosa Guillén and Davis in the San Joaquin Valley AUTHOR: Crystal Allina Kirkland DATE SUBMITTED: February 2009 COMMITTEE CHAIR: Dr. David H. Headrick, Ph.D. COMMITTEE MEMBER: Dr. Michael Costello, Ph.D. COMMITTEE MEMBER: Dr. Lauren C. Garner, Ph.D. iii ABSTRACT Biological control of Marmara gulosa Guillén and Davis in the San Joaquin Valley Crystal Allina Kirkland Peelminer, Marmara gulosa Davis and Guillén, has been reported as a sporadic pest in California and Arizona since 1998. Marmara gulosa has been a persistent pest in the San Joaquin Valley of California (USA) since 1998. Prior to 2000 the only reports of high populations of citrus peelminer were in the Coachella Valley. The larval stages of M. gulosa create serpentine mines scarring the upper epidermal layers of citrus rind, rendering it unacceptable for fresh market sale. Chemicals have failed to provide adequate control of M. gulosa; thus, the use of natural enemies is considered the best long-term option. Cirrospilus coachellae Gates (Eulophidae: Eulophinae) is an effective gregarious parasite of peelminer in the Coa- chella Valley; however, attempts to establish this species in the San Joaquin Valley have so far been unsuccessful. Other natural enemies may be necessary to control peelminer in this region.
