GENERAL The NeotropicalBiclonuncaria group consisting of three genera is compared with the Old World genusEbodina D ia k o n o f f which also belongs to more advanced Polyorthini and sharing some similarities with the discussed genera. It is reagarded as a representative of a putative out group. TheBiclonuncaria group of genera characterises with seven apomorphies of which the pres ence of terminal lobes of tegumen, sac-shaped processes of transtilla, their tactile setae, and the developement of pollex may be regarded as autapomorphies. Some characters are variably distributed within the group, and probably in several groups of Polyorthini. These are the shape of aedeagus, the development of the apodemes of muscle five on coecum penis, and probably the multiplied signum. -

Phylogeny, evolution and speciation of Choristoneura and Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) by Giovanny Fagua González A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Systematics and Evolution Department of Biological Sciences University of Alberta © Giovanny Fagua González, 2017 Abstract Leafrollers moths are one of the most ecologically and economically important groups of herbivorous insects. These Lepidoptera are an ideal model for exploring the drivers that modulate the processes of diversification over time. This thesis analyzes the evolution of Choristoneura Lederer, a well known genus because of its pest species, in the general context of the evolution of Tortricidae. It takes an inductive view, starting with analysis of phylogenetic, biogeographic and diversification processes in the family Tortricidae, which gives context for studying these processes in the genus Choristoneura. Tectonic dynamics and niche availability play intertwined roles in determining patterns of diversification; such drivers explain the current distribution of many clades, whereas events like the rise of angiosperms can have more specific impacts, such as on the diversification rates of herbivores. Tortricidae are a diverse group suited for testing the effects of these determinants on the diversification of herbivorous clades. To estimate ancestral areas and diversification patterns in Tortricidae, a complete tribal-level dated tree was inferred using molecular markers and calibrated using fossil constraints. The time-calibrated phylogeny estimated that Tortricidae diverged ca. 120 million years ago (Mya) and diversified ca. 97 Mya, a timeframe synchronous with the rise of angiosperms in the Early-Mid Cretaceous. Ancestral areas analysis supports a Gondwanan origin of Tortricidae in the South American plate. -

Jedlicka,1* Anh-Thu E. Vo,2 and Rodrigo P. P. Almeida3 1 Department of Biology, Missouri Western State University, St. Joseph, Missouri, USA 2 Museum of Vertebrate Zoology and Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, California, USA 3 Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management, University of California, Berkeley, California, USA * Corresponding Author: [email protected] Submitted May 26, 2016; Accepted September 7, 2016; Published November 23, 2016 ABSTRACT Determining the ecosystem function of high-order predators is critical for evaluation of food web interactions. Insectivorous birds are abundant predators in many ecosystems yet because they forage upon small taxa, it remains largely unknown whether birds are providing ecosystem services in the form of pest control or disservices by preying upon predaceous arthropod species. We extracted DNA from noninvasive fecal samples of adult and nestling Western Bluebirds (Sialia mexicana) in California vineyards. Using universal arthropod-specific primers, we sequenced prey items via massively parallel sequencing on the Illumina MiSeq platform. Bluebirds consumed a broad diet comprising 66 unique arthropod species from 6 orders and 28 families. Aedes sp. (mosquitoes: Culicidae), a previously unknown prey, was the most common item recovered, occurring in 49.5% of the fecal samples. Ectoparasitic bird blowfly (Protocalliphora) DNA was found in 7% of adult and 11% of nestling samples, presenting clear evidence of active feeding by the avian hosts on adult or larval ectoparasites. -
Scientific Names of Pest Species in Tortricidae (Lepidoptera)
RESEARCH Scientific Names of Pest Species in Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) Frequently Cited Erroneously in the Entomological Literature John W. Brown Abstract. The scientific names of several pest species in the moth meate the literature. For example, the subfamilial designation for family Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) frequently are cited erroneously in Olethreutinae (rather than Olethreutidae) was slow to be accepted contemporary entomological literature. Most misuse stems from the for many years following Obraztsov’s (1959) treatment of the group. fact that many proposed name changes appear in systematic treat- They even appear at both taxonomic levels (i.e., Olethreutinae and ments that are not seen by most members of the general entomologi- Olethreutidae) in different papers in the same issue of the Canadian cal community.

Józef RAZOWSKI, Insitute of the Systematics and Evolution of Animals, Polish Academy * ofSciences, S³awkowska17, 31-016Kraków,Poland. E-mail:[email protected] I.INTRODUCTION The number of genera of Tortricidae has increased dramatically over last 50 years; by 2007 there were over 1630 described genera, including synonyms. Many of the older de- scriptions are scattered throughout the literature, and because there are few larger synthetic treatments of the tortricids for most major biogeographic regions, this large number of taxa complicates considerably the work of taxonomists on the faunas of poorly known regions of the planet. In addition, characters that define many of the genera are not clearly articu- lated. The distribution of many genera is still insufficiently known, and this shortcoming frequently results in unexpected findings, e.g., the discovery of Afrotropical genera in the Neotropics. These types of discoveries may cause confusion for specialists that focus on thefaunaofasinglegeographicregion. The literature abounds with re-descriptions and diagnoses of tortricid genera, but many are rather short, frequently lacking comparisons with similar or related taxa. -
The Early Stages of Thaumatographa Eremnotorna Diakonoff & Arita With
56 ENTOMOLOGISCHE BERICHTEN, DEEL 41, 1.IV. 1981 The early stages of Thaumatographa eremnotorna Diakonoff & Arita with remarks on the status of the Hilarographini (Lepidoptera Tortricoidea) by A. DIAKONOFF Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke His tor ie, Leiden and Y. ARITA Zoological Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, Meijo University ABSTRACT. — Description of the chaetotaxy of the mature larva and of the pupa of Thaumatographa eremnotorna Diakonoff & Arita, 1976, a borer in living cambium of Pinus densiflora Sieb. & Zucc., in Japan, belonging to the Hilarographini (Tortricidae). The immature stages of this tribe become known for the first time. Quite surprising is the presence of a bisetose L group of setae of the prothorax, a feature, so far unknown in the superfamily Tortricoidea. The peculiar group of the Hilarographini, apparently belonging to the Tortricidae, but only recently (Diakonoff, 1977) transferred to this family from the complex, so called Glyphipterigidae auctorum (= Glyphipterygidae Meyrick, 1913), is represented by elegant, gaudily colored and marked tropical and subtropical species of the Old and the New World.

Lately, the second author had the good luck of collecting larvae and pupae of Thaumatographa eremnotorna Diakonoff & Arita, 1976, a species belonging to this group, a borer in living cambium of a Coniferous tree (Pinus densiflora Von Siebold & Zuccerini), on Mt. -
Lepidoptera: Tortricidae
POLISH JOURNAL OF ENTOMOLOGY POLSKIE P I S M O ENTOMOLOGICZNE VOL. 78 : 209-221 Bydgoszcz 30 September 2009 Descriptions and notes on Neotropical Hilarographa Z ELLER (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) JÓZEF RAZOWSKI Institute of Systematics and Evolution of Animals PAS, Sławkowska 17, 31-016 Kraków, Poland, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The number of the Hilarographa species increased from 16 to 21; six species are de- scribed as new: H. charagmotorna sp. n., H. mariannae sp. n., H. iquitosana sp. n., H. parambae sp. n., and H. belizeae sp. n. Unknown genitalia of 4 species are illustrated. KEY WORDS: Tortricidae, Hilarographini, new species, Neotropics. INTRODUCTION Since description of the tribe Hilarographini (D IAKONOFF 1977) several papers occured in a comparatively short time. They concerned chiefly the Oriental and Palaearctic faunas. Then HEPPNER published the synopsis of the world fauna (H EPPNER 1982b) and a revision of American Thaumatographa (H EPPNER 192a). During the last 25 years there was no con- tinuation of their studies except for some papers by D IAKONOFF but none dealing with the Neotropics. Hence, I am returning to my manuscript from before 20 years completing it with some new data. HEPPNER (1982b) catalogized some colourful species of the genera more or less similar to Hilarographa , incl. Mictopsichia in Hilarographini. Hilarographa and Thaumatographa strongly differ from Mictopsichia which in the World Catalogue by B ROWN (2005) were included in the "new tribe 3" of Tortricinae. Mic- topsichia and its allies are excluded from this paper. 210 Polish Journal of Entomology 78 (3) Material This paper is based on the material cureted by the Natural History Museum, London and the Carnegie Museum, Pittsburgh.
