We conducted a multiple-gene phylogenetic analysis of 70 species representing 24 23 genera of Cochylina and eight species representing eight genera of Euliina, and a maximum 24 likelihood analysis based on 293 barcodes representing over 220 species of Cochylina. The 25 results confirm the hypothesis that Cochylina is a monophyletic group embedded within a 26 paraphyletic Euliina. We recognize and define six major monophyletic lineages within 27 Cochylina: a Phtheochroa Group, a Henricus Group, an Aethes Group, a Saphenista Group, a 28 Phalonidia Group, and a Cochylis Group. -
Forest Tortricids Trapped Using Eucosma and Rhyacionia Synthetic Sex Attractants
Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 39(1), 1985, 26-32 FOREST TORTRICIDS TRAPPED USING EUCOSMA AND RHYACIONIA SYNTHETIC SEX ATTRACTANTS R. E. STEVENS,I C. SARTWELL,2 T. W. KOERBER,3 J. A. POWELL,4 G. E. DATERMAN,2 AND L. L. SOWER2 ABSTRACT. Moths of 31 non-target species of Tortricidae (30 Olethreutinae, 1 Tor tricinae) were lured to synthetic Eucosma and Rhyacionia sex attractants deployed in pine forests throughout 12 states in the western U.S. Genera represented include Petrova, Barbara, Phaneta, Eucosma, Epiblema, Epinotia, Ancylis, Dichrorampha, Sereda, Grapholita, Cydia, and Decodes, as well as a new genus near Rhyacionia. In 1977 and 1978 we conducted an extensive trapping survey in pine forests in the western United States, using synthetic sex attractants. The primary objective was to learn more about geographical distribution and host relationships of Eucosma sonomana Kearfott and species of Rhyacionia. While the major results have been published (Sartwell et aI., 1980; Stevens et aI., 1980), a variety of other moths, largely ole threutines, also responded to the lures. These were saved and identified when their numbers indicated more than chance captures. Generally, a minimum of 4-6 similar moths at a trapping location was considered sufficient to indicate attraction was not incidental, although in some instances we recovered fewer. The catches reported here provide clues regarding pheromone chemistry of and possible taxonomic relation ships among certain species. The information may be useful for future studies on these and related species. It also provides range extensions for some of the species captured. METHODS Details of the methods, including trapping periods and precise trap locations for most collections, are presented in the previously cited works (Sartwell et aI., 1980; Stevens et aI., 1980). -

Lepidoptera (Moths and Butterflies) at Inverness Ridge in Central Coastal California and Their Recovery Following a Wildfire
LEPIDOPTERA (MOTHS AND BUTTERFLIES) AT INVERNESS RIDGE IN CENTRAL COASTAL CALIFORNIA AND THEIR RECOVERY FOLLOWING A WILDFIRE J. A. Powell Essig Museum of Entomology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720 Abstract.— In numbers of species, Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths) make up the largest group of plant-feeding animals in North America. Caterpillars of nearly all species feed on plants, and most of them are specialists on one or a few kinds of plants. Therefore they are liable to be severely affected by wildfires, and secondarily, their parasites and predators, including birds, bats, lizards, and rodents, suffer losses of a major food resource. In October 1995, a wildfire swept over part of The Point Reyes National Seashore, burning more than 12,300 acres (5,000 hectares) of public and private land, following a fire-free period of several decades. I tracked survival and recolonization by moths and butterflies during the subsequent five seasons. I made daytime searches for adults and caterpillars approximately monthly from March through October and collected blacklight trap samples, mostly in May and September-October. More than 650 species of Lepidoptera have been recorded in the Inverness Ridge area, and about 375 of them were recorded during the post-fire survey, including larvae of 31% of them. Plants in a Bishop pine forest higher on the ridge, where the fire was most intense, accumulated their caterpillar faunas slowly, while Lepidoptera feeding on plants typical of riparian woods in the lower canyons reestablished sooner and more completely. Recolonization varied markedly among different plant species, and the species richness gradually increased, in marked contrast to generalizations about effects of fire on arthropods derived from fire management of grasslands.
