Tortricidae 156 References 169 Note 172 Abstract: This paper deals with all Lepidoptera, excluding the non-crambine Pyralidae, of Auckland, Campbell, Antipodes and Snares Is. 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.

The moth exists only in captivity, having been artificially selected from a wild progenitor, generally recognized as Samia canningi (Hutton) of the Himalayas. In the taxonomic and sericultural literature, there has been considerable confusion and inconsistency regarding the correct authorship of the name Phalaena ricini as originally described. The author of P. ricini has most often been cited as Boisduval, but other researchers have attributed authorship to Anderson, Jones, Donovan, or Hutton. The original description was located, thus revealing that P. ricini should be credited to Sir William Jones. In turn, the date of publication fixes the nameP. ricini as the senior subjective synonym for both the wild and cultivated entities, thereby forcing Saturnia canningi into synonymy. Key words: Assam, eri silk, ericulture, India, Sir William Jones, wild silk INTRODUCTION 2003) conserved the binomials of 17 species of wild animals, including Bombyx mandarina (Moore), which was eventually The eri silkmoth (Fig.

The main objective was to see the Silver-spotted Skipper. With much help from conservationists, this species has made a significant comeback since the 1970s1 – but it remains a local and even rare butterfly in Britain.

Abstract During revisionary work on the genus Eudocima BlLLBERG, 1820 (sensu POOLE, 1989) four species were found to be new to science and are here described: Eudocima mazzeii sp. n. and Eudocima behouneki sp. n., both from the Philippines, where they apparently substitute Eudocima sikhimensis (BUTLER, 1895), Eudocima prolai sp. n., from New Guinea, not directly related to any other species in the genus, and Eudociina treadawayi sp. n., from the Philippines, superficially similar to Eudocima cocalus (CRAMER, 1777). Eudocima apta (WALKER, [1858]) sp. rev., is considered as a distinct species from Eudocima materna (LINNAEUS, 1767) and the following syonymy is reinstated: Phalaena phalonia LINNAEUS, 1763 = Phalaena fullonia CLERCK, [1764] syn. rev., so that the name Eudocima phalonia (LINNAEUS, 1763) comb. n. must be used for the species currently known as Eudociina fullonia (CLERCK, [1764]).

Gates Clarke Chairman, Department of Entomology Introduction It has been my privilege and pleasure to study the Microlepidoptera collected in the Juan Fernandez Islands in 1951, 1952, and 1955 by Dr. Guillermo Kuschel, Centro de Investigationes Zoologicas, Uni- versity of Chile, Santiago, and to him my thanks are due for this opportunity. Through the coui-tesy of Dr. Kuschel I have been permitted to deposit the types of all the new species in the collection of the U.S. National Museum, Smithsonian Institution. Paratypes of some of the species, where series permitted, are also in the Museum, while others are distributed in the Natural History Museum and the University of Chile in Santiago. My sincere thanks are due Dr. Lars Brundin, Naturhistoriska Riksmuseum, Stockholm, for his generous permission to study Auri- villius' types deposited in that institution. To Mr. John D. Bradley, Department of Entomology, British Museum (Natural History), I am also grateful for his help received on many occasions. The drawings for this paper were made by Mr. Arthur D. Cushman, staff artist of the Entomology Research Division, U.S. Department of Agriculture; Mrs. Patricia Hogue; Mrs. Caroline Lutz, staff artist, Department of Zoology, Smithsonian Institution; and by myself. 1 2 PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM Vol. 117 The collections made by Dr. Kuschel are of more than usual interest because they are the first of any size from the islands and are the first to provide any tangible information about possible origins of the fauna.
