SYSTEMATICS of the MEGADIVERSE SUPERFAMILY GELECHIOIDEA (INSECTA: LEPIDOPTEA) DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of T
SYSTEMATICS OF THE MEGADIVERSE SUPERFAMILY GELECHIOIDEA (INSECTA: LEPIDOPTEA) DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sibyl Rae Bucheli, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. John W. Wenzel, Advisor Dr. Daniel Herms Dr. Hans Klompen _________________________________ Dr. Steven C. Passoa Advisor Graduate Program in Entomology ABSTRACT The phylogenetics, systematics, taxonomy, and biology of Gelechioidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera) are investigated. This superfamily is probably the second largest in all of Lepidoptera, and it remains one of the least well known. Taxonomy of Gelechioidea has been unstable historically, and definitions vary at the family and subfamily levels. In Chapters Two and Three, I review the taxonomy of Gelechioidea and characters that have been important, with attention to what characters or terms were used by different authors. I revise the coding of characters that are already in the literature, and provide new data as well. Chapter Four provides the first phylogenetic analysis of Gelechioidea to include molecular data. I combine novel DNA sequence data from Cytochrome oxidase I and II with morphological matrices for exemplar species. The results challenge current concepts of Gelechioidea, suggesting that traditional morphological characters that have united taxa may not be homologous structures and are in need of further investigation. Resolution of this problem will require more detailed analysis and more thorough characterization of certain lineages. To begin this task, I conduct in Chapter Five an in- depth study of morphological evolution, host-plant selection, and geographical distribution of a medium-sized genus Depressaria Haworth (Depressariinae), larvae of ii which generally feed on plants in the families Asteraceae and Apiaceae. -

Falkovit'lh (ed.) et al. 1990. E. J. Brill, Leiden. (translation of: OPREDELITEL NASEKOMYKH EVEOPEISKOI CHASTI SSSR, TOM IV, CHESHUEKRYLYE, VTORAIA CHAST. Nauka Publishers, Leningrad, 1981-trans lator: B. R. Sharma). x + 1092 pp., 675 figs. Hard cover, 16 x 24 cm, ISBN 90-04-08926- 8. $160.00 U.S. Available from E. J. Brill (U.S.A.) Inc., 24 Huclson Street, Kinderhook, New York 12106. This remarkable, bulky handbook is the second part of a work devoted to the Lepi doptera of western Russia. The English version of Part One was issued in 1987 (Amerind Publishing Co. Pvt. Ltd, New Delhi-edition supervised by the U.S.D.A. , Washington, D.C.), and it covered the non-ditrysian families (with only a superficial treatment of the Nepticulidae), and eight families among the lower Ditrysia, namely the Psychidae and dll members of the Zygaenoidea, Cossoidea, Sesioidea and Tortricoidea. Part Two deals with a larger number of families (29 if one accepts the classification that I proposed in 1991: see Entomol. Seand. 22:90-91). These are the Eriocottidae and Tineidae (including the "Euplocamidae" and "Hieroxestidae" ), all members of the Gracillarioidea, Ypono meutoidea, Choreutoidea, Urodoidea (Woekia Heinemann: p. 508, as a "plutellid" genus), Schreckensteinioidea, and Epermenioidea, and all the gelechioid families with the ex ception of most Coleophoridae (only the Amphisbatinae being treated: pp. -

Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society
124 JOURNAL OF THE LEPIDOPTERISTS' SOCIETY THE STATUS OF THE GLYPHIPTERIGIDAE AND A REASSESSMENT OF RELATIONSHIPS IN YPONOMEUTOID FAMILIES AND DITRYSIAN SUPERFAMILIESl JOHN B. HEPPNER2 Department of Entomology and Nematology, IFAS, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida 32611 Current studies of the North American Glyphipterigidae have revealed major fundamental morphological and behavioral characters which dem onstrate that the inclusion of thc choreutid and glyphipterigid groups within a single family is untenable. The discordant characters involved have been shown in the past by other workers to be so fundamentally and evolutionarily conservative in Lepidoptera phylogeny that it is not even possible to consider the two groups to have evolved within the same superfamily, Glyphipterigid moths have long been considered of unusual interest because of apparent affinities to the Yponomeutidae and the Sesiidae, as well as to the Tortricidae. Most early workers considered them as dis tinct groups: the choreutids were placed with the tortricids and the glyphipterigids sensu stricto were placed among the tineoid moths. This segregation was rarely altered until Meyrick (1914) combined them into one family. Meyrick's classification was based largely on general facies-the two groups share a number of superficial characters-and not fundamental relationships. He also relied strongly on wing venation and did not use genitalia, internal morphology or larval characters. He formed a conglomeration of what now are no less than nine distinct families in several superfamilies, although he realized the true affinities of many of the included genera in later years. Current revisionary studies on the choreutids and glyphipterigids, using modern systematic tech niques, are revealing the true affinities of these moths. -

Identification of Micro-Moth Families
Identification of micro-moth families Introduction This guide is intended for use by Garden Moth Scheme (GMS) recorders and other British and Irish moth enthusiasts. It is aimed at those who already have some understanding of moth taxonomy and morphology but struggle to easily home-in on which moth family a micro- moth belongs to. For further information about how to start out moth- trapping see www.gardenmoths.org.uk. There are currently over 1600 British and Irish micro-moth species, compared to around 800 species of macro-moth and 60 species of butterfly, so species identification is particularly challenging. Narrowing down identification to species requires additional information from training courses, websites and field guides. This guide shows photographs of 45 micro-moth families at rest, together with identification tips, similar species, and the number of species in that family. Taxonomists disagree on the order and arrangement of families, but this guide follows the numbering system of Bradley and Fletcher (B&F) wherever possible. The guide is intended to be used with the excellent Field Guide to the Micromoths of Great Britain and Ireland by Sterling, Parsons and Lewington, British Wildlife Publishing (2012, SPL), which covers 1000+ micro-moth species. However, for the uninitiated, facing a light trap full of micro-moths starting from scratch with SPL can be both daunting and time-consuming. Family names are different and are shown in a different order in SPL and B&F, so in order to reduce confusion, after the B&F numbers are quoted for each family the page numbers for the plates in SPL are also given. -
