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. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

We evaluated the species concept for a common generalist moth occurring in New Guinea and Australia, Homona mermerodes, in light of host plant records and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I haplotype diversity. Genetic divergence among H. mermerodes moths feeding on different host tree species was much lower than among several Homona species. Genetic divergence between haplotypes from New Guinea and Australia was also less than interspecific divergence. Whereas molecular species identification methods may reveal cryptic species in some generalist herbivores, these same methods may confirm polyphagy when identical haplotypes are reared from multiple host plant families. A lectotype for the species is designated, and a summarized bibliography and illustrations including male genitalia are provided for the first time.

Biology of Dalcerides Ingenita (Lepidoptera: Dalceridae)
Vol. 8 No. 2 1997 EPSTEIN: Dalcerides ingenita Biology 49 TROPICAL LEPIDOPTERA, 8(2): 49-59 BIOLOGY OF DALCERIDES INGENITA (LEPIDOPTERA: DALCERIDAE) MARC E. EPSTEIN Dept. of Entomology, MRC 105, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560, USA ABSTRACT.- Observations on the biology of Dalcerides ingenita (H. Edwards) are documented, many for the first time, with photographs and images captured from video. Dalcerid larvae have a dorsum covered with gelatinous warts. It is reported here that the head, prothorax, ventrum and anal segment of larval dalcerids are molted apart from the dorsum of the remaining thorax and abdomen. The gelatinous warts are irregularly molted and are believed to form as a result of secretions beneath old layers of integument. Time-lapse photography of cocoon construction indicates that the warts are sloughed off and fed on by the prepupa. Images of other behaviors include larval locomotion and use of the spinneret, cannibalism of unhatched larvae by newly hatched siblings, and adult emergence and copulation.

The dataset published herein contains the label data for all North American specimens of Zygaenidae, Limacodidae, Dalceridae and Megalopygidae residing at the Oregon State Arthropod Collection as of March 2019. A beta version of these data records will be made available on the OSAC server (http://osac.oregonstate.edu/IPT) at the time of this publication. The beta version will be replaced in the near future with an official release (version 1.0), which will be archived as a supplemental file to this paper. Methods Basic digitization protocols and metadata standards can be found in (Shepard et al. 2018). Identifications were confirmed prior to determination by Jon Shepard and Paul Hammond using the online Digital Guide to Moth Identification website (Moth Photographers Group, 2019).

Notes on the Family Dalcerid^E
OF WASHINGTON, VOI.UMK XII, lull). 113 ready to give others the benefit of his wide bibliographic knowledge, and his untimely demise is greatly to be deplored, not only as a severe loss to hemipterology, but his optimistic and kindly personality will be greatly missed by his friends and colleagues. He was a fellow of the Entomological Society, London, since 1895, a member of the American Association of Economic Entomologists, and several other entomological soci- eties, and was for several years associated as a subeditor with the "London Entomologist," and was president for the ensu- ing year of the Hawaiian Entomological Society, a local society chiefly devoting its observations to the bionomics of the native insect fauna of the archipelago. The deceased leaves a wife, a little daughter, and an aged mother to mourn his loss. The following papers were accepted for publication: NOTES ON THE FAMILY DALCERID^E. [Lepidoptera; Dalceridce.] BY HARRISON G. DYAR. I first gave a synopsis of the genera of this interesting little in 1898 N. Y. Soc. family (Journ. Ent. , vi, 231), recognizing five genera. Later, Mr. Schaus published a table (Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. in which ten are dis- , xxix, 331, 1906), genera tinguished. Not much has been added to our knowledge since that date, but I think an improvement can be effected by a change in the order of the characters used in the table, with the suppression of one genus. Two other genera are here recognized, bringing the number up to eleven. The family is allied to the Cochlidiidse. I have never seen a larva of any species of the group, and know of but two descriptions.

Von Walter Hopp, Charlottenburg, Pritsche Str. 70. (Mit 6 Textfiguren.) Die Anregung zur Beschäftigung mit den Dalceridae verdanke ich Herrn Professor Karsch vom Zoologischen Museum in Berlin, dem ich auch für die Beschaffung der Literatur zu Dank ver- pflichtet bin. Herrn Professor Seitz vom Senckenberg-Museum in Frankfurt a. M. und Herrn Dr. M. v. Brunn vom Zoologischen Museum in Hamburg bin ich für die Zugänglichmachung des ein- schlägigen Sammlungsmaterials verpflichtet. Ferner gab mir Herr Dr. Ender lein vom Zoologischen Museum in Berlin wertvolle Anregung zum Arbeiten auf entomologischem Gebiet. Dyar stellte 1898 die Familie der Dalceridae auf, die den Tineoidea untergeordnet und den Cochlidiidae angereiht ist. Im Lepidopterorum Catalogus ist die Familie bearbeitet von Dyar und Embrik Strand. Bisher wurden 12 Gattungen mit etwa 50 Arten beschrieben, sämtlich aus Mittel- und Südamerika; eine Art reicht bis Arizona. Es sind Gattungen mit rundlichen, breiten Flügeln (selten die Hinterflügel dreieckig), kurzen, gekämmten, im $ Ge- schlecht schwächer entwickelten Fühlern, kleinen Tastern und fehlendem oder stark verkümmertem Rüssel. Einige Arten tragen an den Fühlern ein Büschel Schuppenhaare, besonders auffällig Dahera abrasa H. Sch., deren Fühler mit Reihen längsgerichteter weißer Schuppen bekleidet sind; das keulige Büschel schwarzer Schuppenhaare läßt seitlich die letzten Antennenfiedern kaum hervortreten, die äußerste Antennenspitze trägt einzelne weiße Schuppen.
