RESUMO O levantamento faunístico em savanas nos possibilita o conhecimento da diversidade do local, do potencial biológico dessas áreas e, ajudam a destacar a necessidade de preservação desse ecossistema. Com o objetivo de efetuar estudos faunísticos com esfingídeos (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) em savanas na Área de Proteção Ambiental Alter do Chão, esta pesquisa é composta por dois capítulos, onde, no primeiro analisou-se a fauna de esfingídeos quanto à abundância, riqueza, composição e diversidade no período de um ano, em duas áreas de savana, verificando a sazonalidade, correlação da abundância e riqueza em relação à temperatura, umidade relativa e pluviosidade. As coletas foram mensais, através de armadilha luminosa modelo Pensilvânia, em dois pontos amostrais, durante uma noite em cada área, das 18:00 as 6:00, no período de junho de 2014 a maio de 2015, avaliou-se durante os períodos (mais chuvoso e menos chuvoso), os parâmetros: riqueza (S), abundância (N), dominância, composição, índices de diversidade e uniformidade de Shannon (H‟ e U) e dominância de Berger-Parker (BP). As estimativas de riqueza foram feitas através dos testes não paramétricos: “Bootstrap”, “Chao1”, ACE, “Jackknife1” e “Jackknife2”. No total o resultado obtido foi de 34 espécies e 374 espécimes, com índices (H‟= 2,59; U= 0,733; BP= 0,235), as estimativas de riqueza apontam que foi coletado entre 63% e 87% das espécies esperadas. O estimador “Bootstrap” estimou 39 espécies e “Chao1” 54. O período menos chuvoso foi o que apresentou melhores resultados (S= 26; H‟= 2,40; N= 222). Este, também, foi o mais expressivo para as estimativas de riqueza destacando que, “Jackknife 2” estimou 34 espécies, o mesmo valor da riqueza total encontrada. Em relação às variáveis climáticas somente à abundância e temperatura obtiveram correlação moderada positiva e significativa. A espécie Isognathus caricae (Linnaeus, 1758) foi a mais abundante em ambos os períodos. No segundo capítulo inventariamos a fauna destas mariposas de maio de 2014 a dezembro de 2016 (incluindo as coletas do estudo anterior), com a mesma metodologia de coleta, porém em 90 pontos amostrais. Coletou-se 36 espécies e 836 espécimes, a tribo mais representativa foi Dilophonotini (S= 22 N= 638), o gênero mais rico foi Erinnyis (S= 5) e o mais abundante foi Isognathus (N= 329) e, a espécies Isognathus caricae (N= 220) foi mais a abundante, a proporção de macho para fêmea foi de (3,5: 1). Registra-se a ocorrência de Callionima grisescens (Rothschild, 1894) para o estado do Pará e Amazônia brasileira. Palavras-chave: Bombycoidea, inventariamento, mariposas, sazonalidade. vi CONCEIÇÃO, Ana Carla Walfredo da.

ABSTRACT Fauna survey in savannas allows the knowledge of the local diversity, the biological potential of these areas and, helps to highlight the importance of preservation of this ecosystem. Aiming to perform faunal studies with sphingids (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) on savannas in the Alter do Chão Environmental Protection Area, this research consisted of two chapters, in the first one, the fauna of Sphingidae was analyzed in relation to the abundance, richness, composition and diversity in the period of one year, in two areas of savannas, verifying the seasonality, correlation of abundance and richness in relation to temperature, relative humidity and precipitation. The catches were monthly, through Pennsylvania light trap, at two sampling sites, during one night in each area, from 6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m., from June 2014 to May 2015, was evaluated during the periods (more rainy and less rainy), the parameters: species richness (S), abundance (N), dominance, composition, diversity index and uniformity of Shannon (H' and U) and dominance of Berger-Parker (BP). Estimates of species richness were performed through non-parametric tests: Bootstrap, Chao1, ACE, Jackknife1 and Jackknife2. The total result was 34 species and

Prof. Moraes Rego, s/n, Cidade Universitária, 50670-901, Recife, Pernambuco, Brasil. E-mail:[email protected] ABSTRACT: The caatinga, a thorn-shrub succulent savannah, is located in Northeastern Brazil and characterized by a short and irregular rainy season and a severe dry season. Insects are only abundant during the rainy months, displaying a strong seasonal pat- tern. Here we present data from a yearlong Sphingidae survey undertaken in the reserve Estação Ecológica do Seridó, located in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Hawkmoths were collected once a month during two subsequent new moon nights, between 18.00h and 05.00h, attracted with a 160-watt mercury vapor light. A total of 593 specimens belonging to 20 species and 14 genera were col- lected. Neogene dynaeus, Callionima grisescens, and Hyles euphorbiarum were the most abundant species, together comprising up to 82.2% of the total number of specimens collected. These frequent species are residents of the caatinga of Rio Grande do Norte. The rare Sphingidae in this study, Pseudosphinx tetrio, Isognathus australis, and Cocytius antaeus, are migratory species for the caatinga.

In the past, distributional data on the ecuadorian Sphingidae were reported by Dognin (1886-1897), Campos (1931), Rothschild & J ordan (1903) and Schreiber (1978). Haxaire (1991), describing a new species of Xylophanes from Ecuador, has reported a total of 135 species collected in Ecuador. Racheli & R acheli (1994) listed 167 species, including recent collecting data for 80 species, and all the records for the country extracted from the literature, including also doubtful records such as Manduca muscosa (Rothschild & J ordan , 1903) and Xylophanes juanita Rothschild & J ordan , 1903 which are unlikely to occur in Ecuador. The total number of hawkmoths species of Ecuador may account for approximately 155-160 spe­ cies. Following the recent studies of Racheli & R acheli (1994, 1995), Racheli (1996) and Haxaire (1995, 1996a, 1996b), additional records of Museum specimens and of material collected in Ecuador are given herewith.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. This study evaluated the seasonality of Sphingidae spp. in two areas of savannah, in the eastern Brazilian Amazon, sampled for one year (June, 2014 through May, 2015) with the aid of Pennsylvania light traps placed at four sampling points. Data on fauna were obtained through the following parameters: abundance (N), richness (S), composition, Shannon diversity and uniformity indices (H’ and U’), and the Berger-Parker (BP) dominance index. Richness estimates were calculated using Bootstrap, Chao1, ACE, Jackknife 1, and Jackknife2 estimators. The Pearson correlation was also used to analyze the effect of climatic variables such as rainfall, temperature, and relative humidity on richness and abundance. The result for the parameters analyzed during the entire sampling period was N= 374, S= 34, H’= 2.59, U= 0.733 and BP= 0.235. The estimation of richness showed that between 63% and 87% of expected species were collected (Bootstrap estimated 39 species and Chao1 estimated 54). The most representative species were: Isognathus caricae (Linnaeus, 1758) (N= 88), Enyo lugubris lugubris (Linnaeus, 1771) (N= 58), Isognathus menechus (Boisduval, [1875]) (N= 46) and Cocytius duponchel (Poey, 1832) (N= 44), with 54% of the sample containing species considered rare divided into 298 male and 76 female specimens.

    Contributions Toward a Lepidoptera (Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, Thyrididae, Drepanoidea, Geometroidea, Mimalonoidea, Bombycoidea, Sphingoidea, & Noctuoidea) Biodiversity Inventory of the University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Lab Hugo L. Kons Jr. Last Update: June 2001 Abstract A systematic check list of 489 species of Lepidoptera collected in the University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Lab is presented, including 464 species in the superfamilies Drepanoidea, Geometroidea, Mimalonoidea, Bombycoidea, Sphingoidea, and Noctuoidea. Taxa recorded in Psychidae, Yponomeutidae, Sesiidae, Cossidae, Zygaenoidea, and Thyrididae are also included. Moth taxa were collected at ultraviolet lights, bait, introduced Bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum), and by netting specimens. A list of taxa recorded feeding on P. notatum is presented. Introduction The University of Florida Natural Area Teaching Laboratory (NATL) contains 40 acres of natural habitats maintained for scientific research, conservation, and teaching purposes. Habitat types present include hammock, upland pine, disturbed open field, cat tail marsh, and shallow pond. An active management plan has been developed for this area, including prescribed burning to restore the upland pine community and establishment of plots to study succession (http://csssrvr.entnem.ufl.edu/~walker/natl.htm). The site is a popular collecting locality for student and scientific collections. The author has done extensive collecting and field work at NATL, and two previous reports have resulted from this work, including: a biodiversity inventory of the butterflies (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea & Papilionoidea) of NATL (Kons 1999), and an ecological study of Hermeuptychia hermes (F.) and Megisto cymela (Cram.) in NATL habitats (Kons 1998). Other workers have posted NATL check lists for Ichneumonidae, Sphecidae, Tettigoniidae, and Gryllidae (http://csssrvr.entnem.ufl.edu/~walker/insect.htm).
