PALABRAS CLAVE: Lepidoptera, Tortricidae, nuevos géneros, nuevas especies, Nueva Caledonia. Introduction The present paper is the second part of a taxonomic study of the Tortricidae of New Caledonia. In the first contribution (RAZOWSKI, 2013) the history of the study of the fauna, a list of the genera and their affinities, and distributional remarks on the New Caledonia species were provided. This paper 333 333-371 Leaf-rollers from New C 7/9/14 18:12 Página 334 J. RAZOWSKI follows the same format but a list of collecting localities is added. In first paper, data on the collecting localities were not detailed was based mostly on material collected by J. D. Holloway (deposited in The Natural History Museum, London) and characterized in his book (HOLLOWAY, 1979). Only a few of those localities appear in the present material studied. The material examined was collected during expeditions sponsored by the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, in 1984 and 1986. Collectors on those trips included R. L. Brown, M. Epstein, G. F. Hevel, O. Pellmyr, and M. Pogue. The material consists of 37 genera and 56 named species of which 2 genera and 31 species are newly described from New Caledonia. The genera not treated in part one The genera are arranged systematically; the number of known species are given in brackets. Tracholena Common, 1965. This genus previously was known from five Australian and two New Guinean species. DUGDALE (2005) described three from New Caledonia, and two additional species are recorded here from New Caledonia. Maoritenes Dugdale, 1966 was known from two New Zealand species. One species is here reported from New Caledonia. Peraglyphis Common, 1963 consists of 13 Australian and one Tasmanian species. In this paper one species from New Caledonia is described. Cryptoptila Meyrick, 1881. Three Australian and one New Guinean species were known. Two species are described here from New Caledonia. Apura Turner, 1916 was known from one Australian and one Samoan species; a third is described here. Lopharcha Diakonoff, 1941 is widely distributed in the Oriental region: Sri Lanka (4 species), India (4), Nepal (1) to Vietnam (1) Sumatra (1) and Java (6); and from the Australian region: New Guinea (1), New Zealand (1), and New Ireland (1). One species is Palaearctic (Japan: Kyusyu) and one new species is described from New Caledonia. Caenognosis Walsingham, 1900 was known from a single species from Christmas Island and Australia. One new species is described from New Caledonia. Cnecidophora Horak, 2006 was described for a single species from Queensland, Australia. A second is described in this paper from New Caledonia. Lobesia Guenée, 1845 is represented by numerous species in the Holarctic and Ethiopian regions, and is rare in the Neotropics. It is abundant in the Oriental region: Sri Lanka (2 species), Kashmir (1) to Thailand (3) and Java (7). In the Australian region Lobesia is recorded from New Guinea (4), Australia (7), New Zealand (1), Fiji (1), Marianas (2), Solomon Islands (1), and New Hebrides (2). One Australian species is reported from New Caledonia; another one remains unidentified. Helictophanes Meyrick, 1881 was proposed for one Indian species (from Assam) and includes one additional species. In the Australian region it is recorded from New South Wales and Queensland, Australia (4 species), and Micronesia (Guam, 1); two new species are described from New Caledonia in this paper. Fibuloides Kuznetzov, 1997 was proposed for one species fromVietnam; it also includes of several species distributed from Sri Lanka (2 species) to Vietnam (2), Philippine Islands (2), Sumatra (1), Java (2), and Australia (2). Two species are Palaearctic. Two new species are described here. Eccoptocera Walsingham, 1907. To this genus belong two Hawaiian and one Micronesian (from Guam) species. The only Australian species (from Queensland) is recorded here from New Caledonia. Eucosmophyes Diakonoff, 1982 was described for a single species from Sri Lanka; the second species is Australian, a third is now reported from New Caledonia. Leguminivora Obraztsov, 1960 is distributed on all continents except for the New World. One species occurs in Australia, and another is now discovered from New Caledonia. Notocydia Komai & Horak, 2006 consists of four Australian species. One new species is described here from New Caledonia. 334 SHILAP Revta. lepid., 42 (167), septiembre 2014 333-371 Leaf-rollers from New C 5/9/14 12:27 Página 335 LEAF-ROLLERS FROM NEW CALEDONIA, 2 Materials The material studied is deposited in the Smithsonian Institution, National Museum Natural History, Washington, DC.

  • Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve Moth Survey 2009
    Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve Moth Survey 2009 Fauna Conservation Department Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden 29 June 2010 Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden Publication Series: No 6 Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve moth survey 2009 Fung Yuen SSSI & Butterfly Reserve Moth Survey 2009 Executive Summary The objective of this survey was to generate a moth species list for the Butterfly Reserve and Site of Special Scientific Interest [SSSI] at Fung Yuen, Tai Po, Hong Kong. The survey came about following a request from Tai Po Environmental Association. Recording, using ultraviolet light sources and live traps in four sub-sites, took place on the evenings of 24 April and 16 October 2009. In total, 825 moths representing 352 species were recorded. Of the species recorded, 3 meet IUCN Red List criteria for threatened species in one of the three main categories “Critically Endangered” (one species), “Endangered” (one species) and “Vulnerable” (one species” and a further 13 species meet “Near Threatened” criteria. Twelve of the species recorded are currently only known from Hong Kong, all are within one of the four IUCN threatened or near threatened categories listed. Seven species are recorded from Hong Kong for the first time. The moth assemblages recorded are typical of human disturbed forest, feng shui woods and orchards, with a relatively low Geometridae component, and includes a small number of species normally associated with agriculture and open habitats that were found in the SSSI site. Comparisons showed that each sub-site had a substantially different assemblage of species, thus the site as a whole should retain the mosaic of micro-habitats in order to maintain the high moth species richness observed.

The native resident fauna of these islands consists of 42 species of which 21 (50%) are endemic, in 27 genera, of which 3 (11%) are endemic, in 12 families. The endemic fauna is characterised by brachyptery (66%), body size under 10 mm (72%) and concealed, or strictly ground- dwelling larval life. All species can be related to mainland forms; there is a distinctive pre-Pleistocene element as well as some instances of possible Pleistocene introductions, as suggested by the presence of pairs of species, one member of which is endemic but fully winged. A graph and tables are given showing the composition of the fauna, its distribution, habits, and presumed derivations. Host plants or host niches are discussed. An additional 7 species are considered to be non-resident waifs. The taxonomic part includes keys to families (applicable only to the subantarctic fauna), and to genera and species.

This Just-IN manuscript is the accepted prior to copy editing and page composition. It may differ from final official version of record. Page 2 of 44 Abstract Many of the arthropod species that are important pests of agriculture and forestry are impossible to discriminate morphologically throughout all of their life stages. Some cannot be differentiated at any life stage. Over the past decade, DNA barcoding has gained increasing adoption as a tool to both identify known species and to reveal cryptic taxa. Although there has not been a focused effort to develop a barcode library for them, reference sequences are now available for 77% of the 409 species of arthropods documented on major pest databases. Aside from developing the reference library needed to guide specimen identifications, past barcode studies have revealed that a significant fraction of arthropod pests are a complex of allied taxa. Because of their importance as pests and disease vectors impacting global agriculture and forestry, DNA barcode results on these arthropods have significant implications for quarantine detection, regulation, and management.

  • False Codling Moth Thaumatotibia Leucotreta
    Stone Fruit Commodity-Based Pest Survey False Codling Moth Thaumatotibia leucotreta Introduction False codling moth (Figure 1) is a significant pest because of its potential economic impact on many crops, including stone fruit, avocado, citrus, corn, cotton, and macadamia. It is not currently known to be present in the United States. Biology Depending on conditions, the false codling moth’s life cycle ranges from 30 to 174 days. It can produce from 2 to 10 generations each year, depending on multiple factors including temperature, food availability and quality, and humidity. To attract males, adult females release pheromones at FIGURE 1. Adult false codling moth (Thaumatotibia leucotreta). Photo courtesy of night. After the adults mate, the female deposits eggs on Pest and Diseases Image Library, Bugwood.org. host plants, either in batches or as single eggs. Later, the hatching larvae burrow into the rind of the host plant. Mature larvae spin cocoons and pupate before they emerge as adults. Symptoms False codling moth can attack stone fruit at any stage. Larvae can even develop in hard green fruit prior to application of control measures. Larvae burrow at the stem end into the fruit and cause damage by feeding around the stone. Damaged fruit can become vulnerable to secondary pests such as fungal organisms and scavengers. Peaches can be damaged by larvae beginning up to 6 weeks before harvest. False codling moth can also attack plants unsuitable for larvae development, such as avocado, causing lesions on fruit tissue and diminishing the marketability of fruit. Because false codling moth is an internal feeder, few symptoms are actually displayed by the larvae.

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.

One genus – Auchenancylis gen. n. – and the following species are described as new: Cryptaspasma sanvito sp. n., Pseudancylis sphensaccula sp. n., Aglaopollex niveofascia sp. n., Aglaopollex gana sp. n., Auchenancylis macrauchenia sp. n. Hemimene sevocata is transferred to Auchancylis. KEY WORDS: Lepidoptera, Tortricidae, Microcorsini, Enarmoniini, Neotropical, new taxa. 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.
