University of Guelph ARBORETUM MOTHS All Species Found by CANDICE TALBOT (CT) Unless Otherwise Indicated University of Guelph ARBORETUM MOTHS All species found by CANDICE TALBOT (CT) unless otherwise indicated. Other contributors: AB – Andrew Bendall AT – Andalyne Tofflemire CE – Chris Earley FR – Fiona Reid MK – Mike Kent Some notes about the records: Most moths were found at or near the J.C. Taylor Nature Centre, coming to building lights, or to a black light and sheet hung by the building, or to painted bait on nearby trees. Semi-regular monitoring was started by CT in 2012, with a small number of incidental observations pre- dating that time. Dates are written as 20140503 (e.g. May 3, 2014) and photographic records likely exist for all specific dates listed. Dates in brackets indicate that the moth was first recorded as present by CT before that date, but an image may not be available for the earlier sight record. Our list follows the order and groups of Beadle & Leckie (2012) Peterson Field Guide to Moths of Northeastern North America. Identifications are based on photographs using this guide as well as other published print and online resources for comparison. We acknowledge that, in some cases, definitive identification may not be possible without dissection and professional examination of the genitalia. Therefore some of our species identifications for difficult groups should be considered tentative. In other cases identification to genus is all that is possible, given the current knowledge of some groups or species complexes. Moss-Eaters - Family Micropterigidae 1.

  • Bon Echo Provincial Park
    BON ECHO PROVINCIAL PARK One Malaise trap was deployed at Bon Echo Provincial Park in 2014 (44.89405, -77.19691 278m ASL; Figure 1). This trap collected arthropods for twenty weeks from May 7 – September 24, 2014. All 10 Malaise trap samples were processed; every other sample was analyzed using the individual specimen protocol while the second half was analyzed via bulk analysis. A total of 2559 BINs were obtained. Over half the BINs captured were flies (Diptera), followed by bees, ants and wasps (Hymenoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and beetles (Coleoptera; Figure 2). In total, 547 arthropod species were named, representing 22.9% of the BINs from the site (Appendix 1). All BINs were assigned at least to Figure 1. Malaise trap deployed at Bon Echo family, and 57.2% were assigned to a genus (Appendix Provincial Park in 2014. 2). Specimens collected from Bon Echo represent 223 different families and 651 genera.

Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity, Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 Abstract A list of 1531 species ofLepidoptera is presented, collected over 15 years (1988 to 2002), in eleven southern West Virginia counties. A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

Five noctuid species are recorded from Europe for the first time: Eublemma conistrota Hampson, 1910, Eiiblemma deserti Rothschild, 1909, Anumeta hilgerti (Rothschild 1909), Hadiila deserticula (Hampson 1905), and Eiixoa canariensis Rebel, 1902. New synonyms are stated: Leptosia velocissima f. tarda Turati, 1926, syn. n. and Leptosia griseimargo Warren, 1912, syn. n., both synonyms of Metachrostis velox (Hübner, 1813); and Pseudohadena (Eremohadena) roseonitens espugnensis Lajonquiere, 1964, syn. n., a synonym of P. (E.) roseonitens roseonitens (Oberthür, 1887). A new subspecies of Xylena exsoleta (Linneaus, 1758), Xylena exsoleta maltensis ssp. n., is established. The literature on Maltese Noctuoidea is reviewed and erronuousely reported species are indicated.

  • Summer Fruit Tortrix Moth Adoxophyes Orana
    Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management/Division of Agriculture Cooperative Agricultural Pest Survey (CAPS) Summer Fruit Tortrix Moth Adoxophyes orana Native to Europe and Asia, the Summer Fruit Tortrix Moth is not known to occur in the U.S. The Summer Fruit Tortrix Moth is most commonly a pest of apple, cherry and pear trees; however it does have a large range of other hosts. Hania Arentsen, Garden Safari, www.forestryimages.org Identifying Features: Adults emerge from late May through late June, FEMALE: from loosely woven cocoons on host plants. Males have a V. Mastro, USDA, APHIS, PPQ 15-19 mm wingspan, with the forewings being light grayish- brown or yellowish-brown in color. They have distinct brown markings. Hind wings are light gray. Females have a 19-22 mm wingspan with dullish, gray-brown forewings and markings which are less distinct than those of males. Female hind wings are brownish-gray. These adults give rise to the first generation of larvae (summer caterpillars). The larvae are 18-22 mm long with a brown head. When mature the head turns a honey- yellow color. The thoracic legs are light brown and the MALE: overall color of the caterpillar is greenish yellow to olive V. Mastro, USDA, APHIS, PPQ green. These adults will produce the second generation of larvae (fall caterpillars) which will overwinter on plants until the following spring. Damage: • Caterpillars cause damage by feeding on the leaves and fruit. • Point-like holes are left in the fruit tissue by larvae. • Before overwintering, fall caterpillars may feed on fruit causing irregular depressions on the surface of the fruit.

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.

    MOTHS AND BUTTERFLIES LEPIDOPTERA DISTRIBUTION DATA SOURCES (LEPIDOPTERA) * Detailed distributional information has been J.D. Lafontaine published for only a few groups of Lepidoptera in western Biological Resources Program, Agriculture and Agri-food Canada. Scott (1986) gives good distribution maps for Canada butterflies in North America but these are generalized shade Central Experimental Farm Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0C6 maps that give no detail within the Montane Cordillera Ecozone. A series of memoirs on the Inchworms (family and Geometridae) of Canada by McGuffin (1967, 1972, 1977, 1981, 1987) and Bolte (1990) cover about 3/4 of the Canadian J.T. Troubridge fauna and include dot maps for most species. A long term project on the “Forest Lepidoptera of Canada” resulted in a Pacific Agri-Food Research Centre (Agassiz) four volume series on Lepidoptera that feed on trees in Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Canada and these also give dot maps for most species Box 1000, Agassiz, B.C. V0M 1A0 (McGugan, 1958; Prentice, 1962, 1963, 1965). Dot maps for three groups of Cutworm Moths (Family Noctuidae): the subfamily Plusiinae (Lafontaine and Poole, 1991), the subfamilies Cuculliinae and Psaphidinae (Poole, 1995), and ABSTRACT the tribe Noctuini (subfamily Noctuinae) (Lafontaine, 1998) have also been published. Most fascicles in The Moths of The Montane Cordillera Ecozone of British Columbia America North of Mexico series (e.g. Ferguson, 1971-72, and southwestern Alberta supports a diverse fauna with over 1978; Franclemont, 1973; Hodges, 1971, 1986; Lafontaine, 2,000 species of butterflies and moths (Order Lepidoptera) 1987; Munroe, 1972-74, 1976; Neunzig, 1986, 1990, 1997) recorded to date.
