Spanish Pyrenees 15 – 22 June 2016
Spanish Pyrenees 15 – 22 June 2016 Participants Sue and Peter Burge Elonwy and Peter Crook Helen and Malcolm Crowder Jackie and Ray Guthrie Ann Stearns Leader Chris Gibson, who also wrote this report. Our hosts: Melanie and Peter Rich at Casa Sarasa www.casasarasa.com Photos by Chris Gibson (CG), Helen Crowder (HC) and Peter Crook (PC), all taken during this holiday. At the end of this report there are photos of some of the non-British moths seen during the week. Front cover: enjoying Aisa valley (CG). Below: eating outside on the last evening (CG) and the green pastures of the upper Hecho valley (HC). This holiday, as for every Honeyguide holiday, also puts something into conservation in our host country by way of a contribution to the wildlife that we enjoyed, in this case for La Sociedad Española de Ornitología (SEO), the Spanish Ornithological Society, and its work in Aragón. The conservation contribution this year of £40 per person was supplemented by gift aid through the Honeyguide Wildlife Charitable Trust, leading to a total of £440 This donation brings the total given to SEO since the first Honeyguide holiday in Spain in 1991 to £16,745 (through all Honeyguide holidays, mostly the Spanish Pyrenees and Extremadura). As at July 2016, the total for all conservation contributions through Honeyguide since 1991 was £108,716. 2 DAILY DIARY Wednesday 15 June: The way there… What should have been a simple journey, Stansted to Biarritz then minibus to Berdún, had by 8pm turned out rather differently. After a series of delays due to thundery weather our flight eventually got onto French tarmac an hour late, where we were held on the plane because of the heavy rain, although any benefit from that was soon negated when we had to wait outside, in the continuing deluge, while another plane took off. -
Comparative Morphology of the Male Genitalia in Lepidoptera
COMPARATIVE MORPHOLOGY OF THE MALE GENITALIA IN LEPIDOPTERA. By DEV RAJ MEHTA, M. Sc.~ Ph. D. (Canta.b.), 'Univefsity Scholar of the Government of the Punjab, India (Department of Zoology, University of Oambridge). CONTENTS. PAGE. Introduction 197 Historical Review 199 Technique. 201 N ontenclature 201 Function • 205 Comparative Morphology 206 Conclusions in Phylogeny 257 Summary 261 Literature 1 262 INTRODUCTION. In the domains of both Morphology and Taxonomy the study' of Insect genitalia has evoked considerable interest during the past half century. Zander (1900, 1901, 1903) suggested a common structural plan for the genitalia in various orders of insects. This work stimulated further research and his conclusions were amplified by Crampton (1920) who homologized the different parts in the genitalia of Hymenoptera, Mecoptera, Neuroptera, Diptera, Trichoptera Lepidoptera, Hemiptera and Strepsiptera with those of more generalized insects like the Ephe meroptera and Thysanura. During this time the use of genitalic charac ters for taxonomic purposes was also realized particularly in cases where the other imaginal characters had failed to serve. In this con nection may be mentioned the work of Buchanan White (1876), Gosse (1883), Bethune Baker (1914), Pierce (1909, 1914, 1922) and others. Also, a comparative account of the genitalia, as a basis for the phylo genetic study of different insect orders, was employed by Walker (1919), Sharp and Muir (1912), Singh-Pruthi (1925) and Cole (1927), in Orthop tera, Coleoptera, Hemiptera and the Diptera respectively. It is sur prising, work of this nature having been found so useful in these groups, that an important order like the Lepidoptera should have escaped careful analysis at the hands of the morphologists. -

Native Versus Exotic Crotalaria Species (Fabaceae) As Host Plants of the Ornate Bella Moth, Utetheisa Ornatrix (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae) Andrei Sourakov*
Journal of Natural History, 2015 Vol. 49, Nos. 39–40, 2397–2415, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00222933.2015.1006700 You are what you eat: native versus exotic Crotalaria species (Fabaceae) as host plants of the Ornate Bella Moth, Utetheisa ornatrix (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae) Andrei Sourakov* McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity, Florida Museum of Natural History, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USA (Received 9 April 2014; accepted 2 January 2015; first published online 3 March 2015) Crotalaria plants and Utetheisa ornatrix are closely linked to each other: the larvae destroy the seeds, while the moth depends on hostplants for alkaloids. To better understand the ongoing co-evolution, the present study examines how native hos- tplants compare to exotic ones. Leaf-feeding on Crotalaria pumila, C. rotundifolia,and C. incana,nativetothemoth’s range, led to faster larval development than on the exotic C. lanceolata, C. spectabilis,andC. pallida. Seed-feeding on all species of Crotalaria led to accelerated larval development and a resultant larger adult moth, and correlates with a higher nitrogen content in the plant tissues. These results add a novel dimension to the previous studies of reproductive biology of this model organ- ism. In controlled settings, mature larvae showed preference for leaves of C. spectabilis over those of other species, perhaps due to the higher alkaloid content. Differences in morphology and phenology of Crotalaria determine the ecology of U. ornatrix popu- lations in Florida. The introduction of novel hostplants, on which U. ornatrix can have a significant negative effect and which are of concern to humans as invasive toxic weeds, has greatly expanded the niche occupied by this moth. -
Mariposas Nocturnas De La Serranía De Cuenca Mariposas Nocturnas De La Serranía De Cuenca
Naturaleza: Mariposas nocturnas de la Serranía de Cuenca Mariposas nocturnas de la Serranía de Cuenca Pablo Sánchez Fernández (Ingeniero de Montes, Servicio de Montes y Espacios Naturales) Juan Ignacio de Arce Crespo (Biólogo, Seacam) La Serranía de Cuenca, ámbito territorial de este artículo (Figura 1), es una de las áreas naturales más relevantes para la entomología europea en general y la lepidopterología en parti- cular, tanto desde el punto de vista de la riqueza faunística total como por la presencia de espe- cies interesantes para la conservación a nivel regional y peninsular. En contraste con el grupo más popular de las mariposas diurnas (Papilionoidea), al que dedicábamos un artículo anterior en esta revista, las mariposas nocturnas son las grandes desconocidas, a menudo el ser humano no las valora y, aunque muchas nocturnas no ceden en belleza a las diurnas, gran parte de ellas son insectos discretos, peludos y de tonos apagados que se contemplan como un «bicho feo» al que hay que pisar o darle un zapatillazo. Con este artículo pretendemos dar a conocer la gran biodiversidad de mariposas nocturnas que tiene la Serranía, porque para poder conservar lo primero que hay que hacer es conocer. Figura Nº 1. En verde se señala la Serranía de Cuenca, ámbito de estudio. Los últimos años han sido muy prolíficos en cuanto al conocimiento de las especies de mariposas noc- turnas en la serranía. Se han publicado diversos artículos de ámbito nacional tales como los realizados por Arce et al (2010), Ortiz et al (2010; 2011), Garre et al (2015a; 2015b). Una detallada síntesis de los mismos es la recopilada en Garre et al (2016). -

PART I SPHINGES AND BOMB WITH EIGHT PLAJOES 0;cfor5 AT THE CLARENDON PRESS 1892 PRINTED AT THE CLARENDON PRKSS EY HORACE HART, PRINT .!< TO THE UNIVERSITY PREFACE At the request of Professor Westwood, and under the orders and sanction of the Delegates of the Press, this work is being produced as a students' handbook to all the Eastern Moths in the Oxford University Museum, including chiefly the Walkerian types of the moths collected by Wal- lace in the Malay Archipelago, which for many years have been lost sight of and forgotten for want of a catalogue of reference. The Oxford University Museum collection of moths is very largely a collection of the types of Hope, Saunders, Walker, and Moore, many of the type specimens being unique and of great scientific value. All Walker's types mentioned in his Catalogue of Hetero- cerous Lepidoptera in the British Museum as ' in coll. Saun- ders ' should be in the Oxford Museum, as also the types of all the species therein mentioned by him as described in Trans. Ent. Soc, Lond., 3rd sen vol. i. The types of all the species mentioned in Walker's cata- logue which have a given locality preceding the lettered localties showing that they are in the British Museum should also be in the Oxford Museum. In so far as this work has proceeded this has been proved to be the case by the correct- vi PREFACE. -
The Apennines: Italy's Abruzzo National Park
The Apennines: Italy’s Abruzzo National Park Naturetrek Tour Report 17 - 24 May 2018 Marsican Iris Brown Argus Red Fox Western Green Lizard Report & images by Jessica Turner Naturetrek Mingledown Barn Wolf's Lane Chawton Alton Hampshire GU34 3HJ UK T: +44 (0)1962 733051 E: [email protected] W: www.naturetrek.co.uk Tour Report The Apennines: Italy's Abruzzo National Park Tour Participants: Jessica Turner and Nicola Scatassi (leaders) together with 13 Naturetrek clients Summary The Abruzzo National Park in the central Apennines of Italy always offers a wide range of wildlife encounters, including a few surprises, set amidst a variety of habitats. We were exceedingly fortunate to have such good and extended views of a Marsican Brown Bear on the first occasion we went looking! These are truly wild animals, never fed by humans, and any sighting of them or Wolves, which we did not see during the week but found plenty of evidence of in the form of scats, is a bonus. It was a late season, with the area having had a lot of snow and rain. We were very aware of the snow in Val di Rose, where we had good views of Abruzzo Chamois, and carpets of Spring Crocus and Alpine Squill where the snow was starting to melt. The orchids were also just coming into flower, and very fresh, and we saw more than we sometimes do. The unsettled weather meant there were fewer butterflies on the wing, but a fresh Baton Blue, Red-underwing Skippers and large numbers of hill- topping Scarce Swallowtails were a joy.
