Un Nouvel Eurybiini Du Genre Alesa De Guyane Française (Lepidoptera, Riodinidae)
Bulletin de la Société entomologique de France, 120 (4), 2015 : 453-456. Un nouvel Eurybiini du genre Alesa de Guyane française (Lepidoptera, Riodinidae) par Christian BRÉVIGNON Villa A7, Rochambeau, F – 97351 Matoury <[email protected]> Résumé. – Une nouvelle espèce du genre Alesa Doubleday, 1847, originaire de Guyane française, Alesa humilis n. sp., est décrite et comparée avec deux espèces proches, A. telephae (Boisduval, 1836) et A. amethystina Gallard & Fernandez, 2015. Abstract. – A new Eurybiini of the genus Alesa from French Guiana (Lepidoptera, Riodinidae). A new species of the genus Alesa Doubleday, 1847, from French Guiana, Alesa humilis n. sp., is described and compared with two closely allied species, A. telephae (Boisduval, 1836) and A. amethystina Gallard & Fernandez, 2015. Keywords. – Riodininae, new species, taxonomy, Guiana shield. _________________ Le genre Alesa Doubleday, 1847, a récemment fourni matière à description de nouveaux taxa (SALAZAR & CONSTANTINO, 2007 ; HALL & AHRENHOLZ, 2010 ; GALLARD & FERNANDEZ, 2015). Un spécimen mâle de la collection L. & C. Brévignon avait été mis de côté depuis de nombreuses années en vue d’un examen plus approfondi. Les motifs alaires et la structure des genitalia permettent de différencier ce spécimen des taxa décrits jusqu’alors, et particulièrement d’Alesa telephae (Boisduval, 1836) et d’A. amethystina Gallard & Fernandez, 2015. L’objet de cet article est la description de cette nouvelle espèce. Alesa humilis n. sp. (fig. 1-2) HOLOTYPE : ♂, Guyane française, Roura, RN 2, PK 35, 14.X.1989, collection L. & C. Brévignon (Matoury, Guyane française). Description du mâle. – Longueur de l’aile antérieure : 19,5 mm.

[fieldguides.fieldmuseum.org] [1086] version 1 11/2018 La Mancha is a natural reserve area managed by Instituto de Ecología, A. C. The reserve comprises several vegetation types in only 82.29 ha. In this natural reserve, butterflies are very common and they are an important insect group as flower visitors. The butterfly species in this guide were collected from six vegetation types distributed in this tropical coastal ecosystem. The aim of this guide is to provide knowledge about the diversity of butterflies to local people, for educational proposes and ecotourism. The images in this field guide include the dorsal and ventral position of each butterfly species with 1-cm scale.

Revision of the Genera Tiniocellus Péringuey, 1901 and Nitiocellus Gen
Boletín de la Sociedad Entomológica Aragonesa (S.E.A.), nº 47 (2010) : 71‒126. REVISION OF THE GENERA TINIOCELLUS PÉRINGUEY, 1901 AND NITIOCELLUS GEN. N. (COLEOPTERA, SCARABAEIDAE, ONITICELLINI) Tristão Branco Rua de Camões, 788, 2º Dto, P-4000-142 Porto, Portugal − [email protected] Abstract: The taxonomical history of the genus Tiniocellus Péringuey, 1901 and the 10 species-group names that have been associated with it is reviewed, and the reasons that justify the creation of Nitiocellus gen. n. for Oniticellus panthera Boucomont, 1921 and Oniticellus collarti Janssens, 1939, are explained. The taxonomy of the Oniticellini is briefly reviewed and a key is provided for the separation of Tiniocellus and Nitiocellus gen. n. from all the other genera currently ranged in the tribe. The synonymies of Oniticellus variegatus Fåhraeus, 1857 and Oniticellus humilis Gerstaecker, 1871 with Tiniocellus spinipes (Roth, 1851) are confirmed. The Asian Tiniocellus imbellis (Bates, 1891) and the African Tiniocellus setifer (Kraatz, 1895) are rehabilitated as good species. Oniticellus modestus Arrow, 1908 is synonymised with T. imbellis, and Tiniocellus asmarensis Balthasar, 1968 with T. spinipes. Three Afrotropical species, one of them containing two subspecies, are described: T. praetermissus sp. n. from western Africa, T. dolosus sp. n. from eastern, central and western Africa, T. eurypygus sp. n. from South Africa, the nominotypical subspecies from the uplands west of the Drakensberg mountain range, and T. eurypygus transdrakensbergensis ssp. n. from the lowlands east of the same mountain range. Keys are provided to the species and sub- species of Tiniocellus, and to the species of Nitiocellus gen. n. For this study 4,628 specimens were examined, including the name-bearing types of all the species-group names, except that of T. -

Williams 183 van der Merwe Street, Rietondale, Pretoria, South Africa. E-mail: [email protected] Copyright © Lepidopterists’ Society of Africa Abstract: This paper applies the findings of phylogenetic studies on butterflies (Papilionoidea) in order to present an up to date classification of the Afrotropical butterflies to genus level. The classification for Afrotropical butterflies is placed within a worldwide context to subtribal level. Taxa that still require interrogation are highlighted. Hopefully this classification will provide a stable context for researchers working on Afrotropical butterflies. Key words: Lepidoptera, Papilionoidea, Afrotropical butterflies, classification.

We see that the recently proposed genera Neoapodemia Trujano, 2018 and Plesioarida Trujano & García, 2018 are closely allied with Apodemia C. & R. Felder, [1865] and are better viewed as its subgenera, new status. Overall, Emesis Fabricius, 1807 and Apodemia (even after inclusion of the two subgenera) are so phylogenetically close that several species have been previously swapped between these two genera. New combinations are: Apodemia (Neoapodemia) zela (Butler, 1870), Apodemia (Neoapodemia) ares (Edwards, 1882), and Apodemia (Neoapodemia) arnacis (Stichel, 1928) (not Emesis); and Emesis phyciodoides (Barnes & Benjamin, 1924) (not Apodemia), assigned to each genus by their monophyly in genomic trees with the type species (TS) of the genus. -

RESUMEN La riqueza biológica de Mesoamérica es enorme. Dentro de esta gran área geográfi ca se encuentran algunos de los ecosistemas más diversos del planeta (selvas tropicales), así como varios de los principales centros de endemismo en el mundo (bosques nublados). Países como Guatemala, en esta gran área biogeográfi ca, tiene grandes zonas de bosque húmedo tropical y bosque mesófi lo, por esta razón es muy importante para analizar la diversidad en la región. Lamentablemente, la fauna de mariposas de Guatemala es poco conocida y por lo tanto, es necesario llevar a cabo un estudio y análisis de la composición y la diversidad de las mariposas (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) en Guatemala. -

Ahrenholz2 1Department of Entomology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC 20560-0127, USA; 2Regions Hospital, 640 Jackson Street, St. Paul, MN 55101, USA Abstract- A new riodinid species in the tribe Eurybiini, Alesa suzana Ahrenholz & Hall n. sp., is described from the lowlands of eastern Ecuador. The new species appears to be sister to the widespread Amazonian species A. telephae (Boisduval, 1836). Based on the study of external morphology and male genitalia, a new species-group classification is proposed forAlesa Doubleday, 1847. The genus is divided into the amesis, telephae, and prema groups. Key words: Alesa, Amazon, Ecuador, Eurybiini, Riodinidae, South America, taxonomy The riodinid tribe Eurybiini is one of the most basal groups followed those outlined in Hall (2005). The following collection in the Neotropical subfamily Riodininae, and its members acronyms are used in the text: DA - Collection of David H. possess five forewing radial veins along with those of the tribe Ahrenholz, St. Paul, MN, USA; JHKW - Collection of Jason P.

Catalog: Oregon State Arthropod Collection 3(2). (beta version). http://dx.doi.org/10.5399/osu/cat_osac.3.2.4594 Introduction These records were generated using funds from the LepNet project (Seltmann) - a national effort to create digital records for North American Lepidoptera. The dataset published herein contains the label data for all North American specimens of Lycaenidae and Riodinidae residing at the Oregon State Arthropod Collection as of March 2019. A beta version of these data records will be made available on the OSAC server (http://osac.oregonstate.edu/IPT) at the time of this publication. The beta version will be replaced in the near future with an official release (version 1.0), which will be archived as a supplemental file to this paper. Methods Basic digitization protocols and metadata standards can be found in (Shepard et al. 2018). Identifications were confirmed by Jon Shepard and Paul Hammond prior to digitization. Nomenclature follows that of (Pelham 2008). Results The holdings in these two families are extensive. Combined, they make up 25,743 specimens (24,598 Lycanidae and 1145 Riodinidae).
