Many species are new and undescribed, thus species names are not given (Table S2). Type specimens were deposited in the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, Melbourne, Australia. To preserve the scales, none of the specimens were cleaned or washed. The specimens were gold coated, and the images were taken on a Philips XL-30 Field Emission ESEM in Bio21, the University of Melbourne. Table S1.

A large area of high pheromone concentration occurs in the down-wind side, within the vicinity of the flagellum, and is also found around the upper half of the detection zone (Fig. S2, marked by black semi-circles). The micro-particles strictly follow along the airflow, resulting in a large particle-free zone that overlaps with the detection zone in all of the scaled antennae. These particles flow closely to the flagellum of Par type antennae. Proceedings of the Royal Society b Figure S2 | The concentration of nano- and micro-particles around the 120 μm diameter antennae with different scale arrangements. The antennal scales increase the concentration of nano-particles (a-d), but reduce the concentration of micro-particles (e-h) in the detection zone (marked by a black semi-circle).

Each row represents the images taken from one species of moth on different parts of the antennae. On scape and pedicel, the scales are parallel to the antennae. The angle of scales is larger on antennae with larger number of sensilla. The angle of scales increases as the number of sensilla increases on the same antenna towards the distal end. References: 1.

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.

Careful and accurate identification and classification of organisms are of vital importance so that the extents of their harmful and beneficial properties are established. Since some of the members of tribe Archipini are pests of various crops, so this study was conducted with the aim to identify, describe, name and classify these species and also prepare illustrated diagnostic keys for their quick and authentic identification and efficient management.

Introduction: VLADIMIR IVANOVICH KUZNETZOV (1929-2008) (figs 1-5) is one of the most famous modern Russian lepidopterologists. He was born 28.II.1929 in Kingisepp, Leningrad Region. His father was née EGOROV and he was born into the family of a smith. Therefore he was known at school as a smith’s son, in Russian transcription as Kuznetzov (=Kuznetz’s son). Thus, the family name KUZNETZOV is in some sense a pseudonym. During The Second World War KUZNETZOV lost his mother and lived in an orphanage until his father came back from the War.

  • 2. Review of Literature
    2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE 2.1 TEA CROP AND ITS PESTS Tea plants have a rhythmic growth pattern, dormancy and flush, coinciding with either management practice or environmental conditions or a combination of both (Manivel 1980). The permanent leaves below the plucking surface are known as maintenance foliage. These maintenance foliage produce photosynthates which are supplied to other parts of a plant, which respire and grow actively with the help of these photosynthates (Kabir 2001). The fresh flush above the maintenance leaves are harvested for tea manufacturing. As mentioned earlier, tea bushes being a monoculture provide habitat for 1031 arthropod species and 82 nematodes species over the world (Chen and Chen 1989). In Asia, tea is affected by a total of 230 species of insects and mites (Muraleedharan 1992). However, Hazarika et al. (1994) reported that in NE India, 173 arthropods and 16 nematodes are considered as pests of tea. Among them few important pest species from plantations of NE India are: a. Sucking insects: Tea green leaf hooper (Emposca flavescens) (Homoptera: Cicadellidae); Tea aphids (Toxoptera auranti) (Homoptera: Aphididae); Tea Mosquito bug (Helopeltis theivora) (Heteroptera: Miridae); Thrips (Taeniothrips setiventris) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae); Scale insects (Lacenium uride) (Hemiptera: Coccidae) b. Borers: Red borer (Zeuzera coffeae) (Lepidoptera: Cossidae); Shot hole borer (Xyleborus fornicates) (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) c. Root feeders: Root grub (Holotricha impressa) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae); Termites [Odontotermes obesus, O. parvidens, Nasutitermes sp., Microtermes obesi, 18 Euhamitermes lighti, Synhamitermes quadriceps, Pericapritermes assamensis, Malaysiocapritermes holmgrenii and Heterotermes indicola] (Blatodea: Termitidae) d. Non-insect arthropods (Mites): Red spider mites (Oligonychus coffeae) (Acari: Tetranychidae), Scarlet mite (Brevipalpus californicus) (Acari: Tenuipalpidae), Purple mite (Calacarus carinatus) (Acari: Eriophyidae) e.

As a result of importer and consumer concerns, pesticide residues have become a major problem for the tea industry. Integrated pest management (IPM) may help to overcome the overuse of pesticides and subsequent residues.
