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.

In spite of this, there does not exist a survey of its fauna — except a single contribution, by Lord Walsingham, in Moore's "Lepidoptera of Ceylon", already almost a hundred years old, and a number of small papers and stray descriptions of new species, in various journals. The authors of these papers were Walker, Zeller, Lord Walsingham and a few other classics — until, starting with 1905, a flood of new descriptions 4 ZOOLOGISCHE VERHANDELINGEN I93 (1982) and records from India and Ceylon appeared, all by the hand of Edward Meyrick. He was almost the single specialist of these faunas, until his death in 1938. To this great Lepidopterist we chiefly owe our knowledge of all groups of Microlepidoptera of Sri Lanka. After his death this information stopped abruptly. In the later years great changes have taken place in the tropical countries. We are now facing, alas, the disastrously quick destruction of natural bio- topes, especially by the reckless liquidation of the tropical forests.

INTRODUCTION The Neotropical olethreutine tribes Microcorsini and Enarmoniini are little known. The Microcorsini are represented by six species of Cryptaspasma, described chiefly from Brazil. We have practically no data on their distribution except for the type localities. One species (C. anaphorana WALSINGHAM, 1914) and another described below are known from Central America, Panama and Costa Rica, which are the most northerly known localities of the genus. Enarmoniini have a world-wide distribution with an Oriental-Australian centre. In the New World there occur Ancylis HÜBNER, 1825 (35 Nearctic and 8 Neotropical species), Hystrichophora WALSINGHAM, 1879 (11 Nearctic species), Eucosmomorpha OBRAZTSOV, 1951 (one Nearctic species), Aglaopollex RAZOWSKI & PELZ, 2011 (Neotropical, 9 species) and the monotypical, Neotropical Auchenancylis gen. n. 146 Polish Journal of Entomology 84 (3) Acknowledgements The authors thank Artur CZEKAJ, Witold ZAJDA and Łukasz PRZYBYŁOWICZ, Kraków, for taking the photographs and arranging the plates.

Agel A population of the Douglas-fir cone moth, Barbara colfaxiana (Kft. ), was studied on the Buckhead Seed Production Area, Oakridge, Oregon, during 1971 and 1972.A method of estimating cone and insect populations is presented.Factors contributing to the mortality of B. colfaxiana are discussed, with resinosis being the critical factor. Larval food consumption is discussed with reference to calories of cone tissue consumed through time. An average of761 calories are consumed through the four larval stages. Amounts consumed of each structure (bracts, scales, seeds) are presented. A structural model is presented that depicts the role of B. colfaxiana in a natural stand. Population.

    Phylogeny, evolution and speciation of Choristoneura and Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) by Giovanny Fagua González A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Systematics and Evolution Department of Biological Sciences University of Alberta © Giovanny Fagua González, 2017 Abstract Leafrollers moths are one of the most ecologically and economically important groups of herbivorous insects. These Lepidoptera are an ideal model for exploring the drivers that modulate the processes of diversification over time. This thesis analyzes the evolution of Choristoneura Lederer, a well known genus because of its pest species, in the general context of the evolution of Tortricidae. It takes an inductive view, starting with analysis of phylogenetic, biogeographic and diversification processes in the family Tortricidae, which gives context for studying these processes in the genus Choristoneura. Tectonic dynamics and niche availability play intertwined roles in determining patterns of diversification; such drivers explain the current distribution of many clades, whereas events like the rise of angiosperms can have more specific impacts, such as on the diversification rates of herbivores. Tortricidae are a diverse group suited for testing the effects of these determinants on the diversification of herbivorous clades. To estimate ancestral areas and diversification patterns in Tortricidae, a complete tribal-level dated tree was inferred using molecular markers and calibrated using fossil constraints. The time-calibrated phylogeny estimated that Tortricidae diverged ca. 120 million years ago (Mya) and diversified ca. 97 Mya, a timeframe synchronous with the rise of angiosperms in the Early-Mid Cretaceous. Ancestral areas analysis supports a Gondwanan origin of Tortricidae in the South American plate.
