    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.

On behalf of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department’s Division of State Parks, staff members were extremely helpful in providing access to information and in sharing of their time. In particular, this assistance was provided by Deby Snodgrass, Kris Marek, and Doug Hawthorne – all from the Oklahoma City office of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department. However, it was particularly the assistance provided by Grant Gerondale, Director of Parks and Recreation for the City of Sand Springs, Oklahoma, that initiated the work associated with this RMP. Grant provided a number of documents, hosted an on-site tour of the Ancient Forest, and shared his passion for this property. It is the purpose of the Resource Management Plan to be a living document to assist with decisions related to the resources within the park and the management of those resources. The authors’ desire is to assist decision-makers in providing high quality outdoor recreation experiences and resources for current visitors, while protecting the experiences and the resources for future generations.

  • A Remarkable New Species of the Genus Catatinagma Rebel, 1903 (Lepidoptera, Gelechiidae) from Turkmenistan
    Nota Lepi. 37(1) 2014: 67–74 | DOI 10.3897/nl.37.7935 A remarkable new species of the genus Catatinagma Rebel, 1903 (Lepidoptera, Gelechiidae) from Turkmenistan Oleksiy V. Bidzilya1 1 Kiev National Taras Shevchenko University, Zoological Museum, Volodymyrska str., 60, MSP 01601, Kyiv, Ukraine; [email protected] http://zoobank.org/8A092C1D-38A1-47D9-B56C-9513184E4F6D Received 31 January 2014; accepted 29 April 2014; published: 15 June 2014 Subject Editor: Lauri Kaila Abstract. A new highly specialized Catatinagma Rebel, 1903 species is described from Turkmenistan. Both sexes have completely reduced hindwings and strongly reduced forewings. The adults are active in February, jumping amongst Carex physodes M. Bieb. and being associated with rodent burrows. The new species is similar to Metanarsia trisignella Bidzilya, 2008, in the male genitalia. Both species are placed here provisionally in Catatinagma Rebel, 1903, and their position within Apatetrini is briefly discussed. The adult and the genitalia of both sexes are illustrated, and the behaviour of the new species is described. Introduction As a result of my study of material deposited in the Zoological Institute of the Russian Acade- my of Sciences (Russia, Sankt-Petersburg, ZIN), a very remarkable narrow-winged species of Gelechiidae with prominent frontal process from Repetek Nature Reserve (SE Turkmenistan) was discovered. As it turned out after a detailed examination, the species was an undescribed member of the subfamily Apatetrinae, tribe Apatetrini (Karsholt et al. 2013) but its generic assignment was unclear. A well-developed beak-shaped frontal process on the head and stenoptery in both sexes with fully reduced hindwing were recognized as external morphological specializations of the new species.

    PROCEEDINGS OF THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM issued |i;|\X^H by the SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION U. S. NATIONAL MUSEUM Vol.86 Washington: 1939 No. 3064 RESTRICTION OF THE GENUS GELECHIA (LEPIDOP- TERA: GELECHIIDAE), WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW GENERA By August Busck The genus Gelechm Hiibiier/ type G. rhomhella (Schiffermiiller), has become, in the course of years since its erection, a "wastebasket" ^ for hundreds of heterogeneous species of gelechiids that could not readily be assigned to other genera on wing or palpal characters. The result is an aggregation of more than 400 such species under the generic name Gelechia. Quite aside from the inconvenience of such an unwieldy number of species in one genus, it is apparent that this lumping does not represent a natural grouping, but that many of the included species are less related to their associates in the check lists under that genus than they are to the species placed in other genera. Gnorimoschema Busck {Phthorimaea Meyrick), for example, which has been correctly separated for many years on obvious pterogostic and oral characters, is clearly more closely related to Gelechia proper than most of the genera here eliminated from the concept. For this reason it is included in the synoptic tables in this paper, and figures of the genitalia are given for comparison (pi. 68, fig. 2; pi. 65, fig. 36). Several sound attempts have been made by workers in continental Europe, notably Heinemann,^ to make a more natural classification by the erection of separate genera for species with certain slight modi- fications of wing structure and palpal characters in common, but the 1 Verzeichniss bekannter Schmetterlinge, p.

  • Major Pests of African Indigenous Vegetables in Tanzania and the Effects Of
    i Major pests of African indigenous vegetables in Tanzania and the effects of plant nutrition on spider mite management Von der Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultat der Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover zur Erlangung des Grades Doktorin der Gartenbauwissenschaften (Dr. rer. hort) genehmigte Dissertation von Jackline Kendi Mworia, M.Sc. 2021 Referent: PD. Dr. sc. nat. Rainer Meyhöfer Koreferent: Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Dr. rer. hort. habil. Hans-Micheal Poehling Tag der promotion: 05.02.2020 ii Abstract Pest status of insect pests is dynamic. In East Africa, there is scanty information on pests and natural enemy species of common African Indigenous Vegetables (AIVs). To determine the identity and distribution of pests and natural enemies in amaranth, African nightshade and Ethiopian kale as well as pest damage levels, a survey was carried out in eight regions of Tanzania. Lepidopteran species were the main pests of amaranth causing 12.8% damage in the dry season and 10.8% in the wet season. The most damaging lepidopteran species were S. recurvalis, U. ferrugalis, and S. litorralis. Hemipterans, A. fabae, A. crassivora, and M. persicae caused 9.5% and 8.5% in the dry and wet seasons respectively. Tetranychus evansi and Tetranychus urticae (Acari) were the main pests of African nightshades causing 11%, twice the damage caused by hemipteran mainly aphids (5%) and three times that of coleopteran mainly beetles (3%). In Ethiopian kale, aphids Brevicoryne brassicae and Myzus persicae (Hemipterans) were the most damaging pests causing 30% and 16% leaf damage during the dry and wet season respectively. Hymenopteran species were the most abundant natural enemy species with aphid parasitoid Aphidius colemani in all three crops and Diaeretiella rapae in Ethiopian kale.

  • Gelechiidae Biosecurity Occurrence Background Subfamilies Short
    Ardozyga stratifera (Gelechiinae) Gelechiidae Twirler Moths or Gelechiid Moths Biosecurity BIOSECURITY ALERT This Family is of Biosecurity Concern Occurrence This family occurs in Australia. Background The micromoth family Gelechiidae is the namesake family for the enormous superfamily Gelechioidea and is one of the most diverse families of the Lepidoptera. Gelechiids are very small moths with narrow wings. The family has a worldwide distribution and is diverse with over 4,700 known species in 500 genera, but that number would be at least doubled with undescribed and new species. The family is particularly prevalent in North America because of the close association of species with Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga). The caterpillars have very diverse feeding habits on many plant parts and species. Many species are external feeders but are protected by a shelter of some kind, often in tied or rolled leaves (Fig. 1). Many others feed internally, boring into flower heads, stems (Fig. 2) or roots. They are leaf-miners (Fig. 11), gall-inducers or stem-borers, or feed within flowers or fruits (Fig. 13). They also can be concealed in silken tunnels in earth or in portable cases. Not surprisingly, therefore, there are many gelechiids that are agricultural pests, such as: the pink bollworm, Pectinophora gossypiella (Fig. 13), one of the most destructive pests of cotton in the world; Sitotroga cerealella (Angoumois grain moth); Phthorimaea operculella (potato tuber moth); and, Tuta absoluta (tomato leaf miner). Contrastingly, several species have been used as biocontrol agents against weeds. One Australian species feeds on dead leaf litter. Fig. 1.

Lees. Abstract. Spiniphallelus eberti sp. nov. (Iran) and Spiniphallellus naumanni sp. nov. (Afghanistan) are de- scribed. The position of the genus within the subfamily Anomologinae is briefly discussed, as is the degree of development of the gnathos in the male genitalia of two species within the same genus. A key to all Spiniphal- lellus species is given, and adults and male and female genitalia of the new species are illustrated.
