Its nearest neighbors are Anguilla, about 80 statute miles (127 km} across the Anegada Passage to the east-southeast and Virgin Gorda, about 13 miles (21 km} due south. Whereas the Virgin Islands are generally mountainous, Anegada reaches perhaps 18 ' above mean sea level and much of the island is considerably lower (D 'Arcy, 1975}. It is about 10 miles (16 km} in length, about 15 square miles (39 km'} in area, oriented along the east-west axis and is just over 2 miles (3.5 km} across the widest point (Fig. 16}. From the south coast and into the Anegada Passage to the southeast extends the Horseshoe Reef, long a hazard to navigation. -

Arenales 1256, Lima, Peru, [email protected] ABSTRACT. Eight new taxa related to Pedaliodes tyro THIEME are described, including six species and two subspecies. It is demonstrated that the designation of the lectotype of Pedaliodes tyro from Marcapata is incorrect, and that the true type locality is Limbani. P. tyro is redescribed and redefined. Key words: entomology, taxonomy, Satyrinae, Pedaliodes, new taxa, redescription, Andes. INTRODUCTION Pedaliodes BUTLER (Nymphalidae, Satyrinae, Satyrini) is the most speciose genus of the Neotropical butterflies with at least 200 currently recognised species L( AMAS et al. 2004). This large number of taxa often does not translate into morphological diversity, especially the wing colour patterns. Several basic elements are found in almost every single taxon. For example, the hindwing underside, in the absence of other prominent colour patterns, usually possess a yellow, orange or reddish triangular or elongate anal wedge and a usually short costal streak. There are dozens of species with these markings, often several sympatric, and their correct identification requires more thorough morphological study, including the comparing of male androconial 472 TOMASZ W. -

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. -

Part 14: Two new species of Pedaliodes BUTLER from the Huancabamba Deflection in southern Ecaudor and northern Peru (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) TOMASZ W. PYRCZ1, JOSE CERDEÑA2 & ERICK HUAMANI VILLALOBOS3 1Zoological Museum of the Jagiellonian University, Ingardena 6, 30-060 Kraków, Poland, tomasz.pyrcz@ uj.edu.pl; 2and 3Museo de Historia Natural, Universidad Nacional de San Agustín, Calle Loreto 104, Cercado Arequipa, Peru ABSTRACT. Two new species of the genus Pedaliodes BUTLER are described from the Huancabamba Deflection area along the Peru – Ecuador border, the transitional zone between northern and central Andes, and one of the most diverse faunal regions of montane butterflies of the Neotropical region. Pedaliodes namballe n. sp., described from the Tabaconas-Namballe National Sanctuary, is closely related to P. arturi PYRCZ & VILORIA which occurs allopatrically on the western slopes of the Andes in the same area. P. garlaczi n. sp., found in the southern part of the Podocarpus National Park, has no close relatives identified so far. A check-list of the species of the genus Pedaliodes sensu lato occurring in Tabaconas-Namballe is given. Key words: entomology, taxonomy, Andes, butterflies, cloud forest-paramo ecotone, genita- lia, new species, Pedaliodes namballe n. sp., Pedaliodes garlaczi n. sp., Peru, species richness INTRODUCTION The Huancabamba Deflection, spreading over southern Ecuador and northern Peru, is one of the most important biogeographic regions of the entire Andes because of its strategic position within the transition zone between northern and central Andes. It is an area of high endemism and high species diversity of Lepidoptera due to faunal overlapping of western-eastern, and northern-southern Andean elements (PYRCZ 2000; PYRCZ et al. -

It was hitherto considered monotypic, however this study shows it is highly polytypic. Five new subspecies are described differing noticeably in the shape, size and colour of the conspicuous hindwing upperside bluish-green patch. Some differences can be observed in male genitalia as well. A western-eastern slopes biogeographical pattern is uncovered, and the Santo Domingo Valley is recognized herein for the first time as a center of endemism at a subspecies level. Microstructure and function of hindwing upperside blue scales are discussed suggesting their role in mate locating. Affinities and phyletic relations of L. marianna with other congeners are discussed based on colour patterns, male and female genitalia, and molecular data. Male genitalia and molecular data place it in the clade of L. obsoleta however female genitalia and colour patterns indicate close affinity with L. -

Gronostajowa 5, 30-387 Kraków, Poland Abstract Immature stages of Lymanopoda caracara Pyrcz, Willmott & Hall, an endemic butterfly from the paramo life zone in the Andes of Ecuador, are described and compared with those of L. schmidti Adams from Colombia. Larval morphology is illustrated for four instars. Drawings of head chaetotaxy and setal maps are provided for the first time for the genus. The host plant is identified as a dwarf bamboo Chusquea villosa (Clark) (Poaceae). Striking individual variation among adults of L. caracara is discussed. Key words Caterpillar, Neotropic, chaetotaxy, Satyrinae. 1 Introduction Butterflies belonging to the genus Lymanopoda Westwood, 1851, within the neotropical subtribe Pronophilina (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae: Satyrini), are typically montane, and distributed in mid and high elevation habitats (elev. 800– 4000 m). They are found almost exclusively in the Andes, including their peripheral ranges, except for two Mesoamerican species (Pyrcz et al., 2018). Currently, the genus contains 64 described species, and four further identified but as yet undescribed species (Pyrcz et al., 2018). -

The Radiation of Satyrini Butterflies (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae): A
Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2011, 161, 64–87. With 8 figures The radiation of Satyrini butterflies (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae): a challenge for phylogenetic methods CARLOS PEÑA1,2*, SÖREN NYLIN1 and NIKLAS WAHLBERG1,3 1Department of Zoology, Stockholm University, 106 91 Stockholm, Sweden 2Museo de Historia Natural, Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Av. Arenales 1256, Apartado 14-0434, Lima-14, Peru 3Laboratory of Genetics, Department of Biology, University of Turku, 20014 Turku, Finland Received 24 February 2009; accepted for publication 1 September 2009 We have inferred the most comprehensive phylogenetic hypothesis to date of butterflies in the tribe Satyrini. In order to obtain a hypothesis of relationships, we used maximum parsimony and model-based methods with 4435 bp of DNA sequences from mitochondrial and nuclear genes for 179 taxa (130 genera and eight out-groups). We estimated dates of origin and diversification for major clades, and performed a biogeographic analysis using a dispersal–vicariance framework, in order to infer a scenario of the biogeographical history of the group. We found long-branch taxa that affected the accuracy of all three methods. Moreover, different methods produced incongruent phylogenies. We found that Satyrini appeared around 42 Mya in either the Neotropical or the Eastern Palaearctic, Oriental, and/or Indo-Australian regions, and underwent a quick radiation between 32 and 24 Mya, during which time most of its component subtribes originated. Several factors might have been important for the diversification of Satyrini: the ability to feed on grasses; early habitat shift into open, non-forest habitats; and geographic bridges, which permitted dispersal over marine barriers, enabling the geographic expansions of ancestors to new environ- ments that provided opportunities for geographic differentiation, and diversification. -

Genus Vol. 23(1): 133-152 Wrocław, 30 IV 2012 Revalidation of Pedaliodes lithochalcis BUTLER & DRUCE, description of a new species from Peru and Bolivia and of a new subspecies of P. napaea BATES from Honduras (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) TOMASZ W. PYRCZ1 & ANGEL L. VILORIA2 1Zoological Museum, Jagiellonian University, Ingardena 6, 30-060 Kraków, Poland, e-mail: [email protected] 2Centro de Ecología, Instituto Venezolano de Investigaciones Científicas, Apartado Postal 20.632, Caracas 1020-A, Venezuela, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Pedaliodes lithochalcis, occurring in Costa Rica and Panama, has been considered for more than a century a junior synonym of P. dejecta from Guatemala. It is reinstated here as a valid species. It is shown that the two species belong to different groups of species with sympatric representatives throughout Central America and the Andes characterized by common characters of adult morphology, particularly the male genitalia. Pedaliodes lithochalcis is closely related to P. napaea whose new subspecies, P. napaea naksi n. ssp., is described from the Celaque massif in Honduras. It is the first cloud forest Satyrinae butterfly described from this country. Pedaliodes dejecta is related to another Mesoamerican species, P. ereiba, and to P. pomponia from Ecuador and to a new species, P. peregrina n. sp., from Peru and Bolivia. Key words: entomology, taxonomy, Andes, Celaque, Costa Rica, Guatemala, male genitalia, Pedaliodes, Pronophilina, taxonomy INTRODUCTION The subtribe Pronophilina (Nymphalidae, Satyrinae) is a species-rich group of neotropical montane butterflies with its centre of diversity in the Andes (PYRCZ 2004; VILORIA et al. 2010). Despite recent advances, its systematics and faunistics remain far from being fully explored. -
