Mon expertise taxonomique principale concerne l’ordre des Lépidoptères, mais mes études et collaborations m’ont conduit à travailler sur d’autres ordres d’insectes (Hyménoptères, Coléoptères) et d’autres Groupes d’invertébrés (Collembola, Oligochaeta). Mes travaux sont basés à la fois sur une approche de morphologie comparée fine (ex. microscopie électronique, morphométrie), avec les collections pour outil de travail principal, et sur une approche moléculaire de la délimitation des espèces et de la reconstruction de leur phylogénie. Un séjour postdoctoral de 4 ans dans le laboratoire de Paul Hebert à l’Université de Guelph au Canada m’a permis d’intéGrer un laboratoire de bioloGie moléculaire voué à la production à haut- débit de séquences d’ADN. J’ai dirigé plusieurs campaGnes de barcoding ADN (identification moléculaire basée sur un marqueur ADN standard) pour les Lépidoptères, mais j’ai aussi contribué au développement de cet outil dans d’autres Groupes, notamment pour la faune du sol (vers de terre, collemboles). Je suis coordinateur de la campagne de barcoding des Lépidoptères à l’échelle globale (http://www.lepbarcoding.org; près d’un million de spécimens échantillonnés et 800,000 codes barres ADN pour presque 80,000 espèces) et je diriGe plusieurs campaGnes taxonomiques (Saturniidae, Sphingidae - couverture mondiale de près de 90% des espèces décrites) ou géographique (faune européenne). Ce rôle m’a ainsi permis d’acquérir une expérience forte dans la supervision d’un réseau international de collaborateurs (taxonomistes professionnels et amateurs, curateurs de collections) pour la construction de librairies de référence Génétiques, mais aussi dans le développement de projets collaboratifs tirant profit des applications possibles de cet outil. Mes recherches les plus récentes consistent dans leur plus large part en des applications de l’intéGration de cet outil moléculaire, dans plusieurs domaines : (1) la taxonomie intégrative, consistant à combiner l’approche morpholoGique et un ou plusieurs marqueurs Génétiques pour 1 la discrimination d’espèces nouvelles ou confondues, parfois cryptiques ; (2) la phylogéographie et la biogéographie des espèces, en utilisant l’outil génétique pour revisiter les limites et les définitions d’espèces et mieux appréhender leur distribution et l’histoire micro- ou macro-évolutive qui en est à l’origine ; (3) l’écologie moléculaire, sous différents angles, comme le développement de protocoles d’analyse de contenus digestifs chez les guêpes parasitoïdes adultes et la reconstruction de réseaux trophiques hôtes/parasitoïdes, ou comme la caractérisation moléculaire de communautés d’insectes par des approches métaGénomiques de type métabarcoding, bénéficiant du haut-débit des nouvelles génération de séquençage (NGS). Ces applications ont démontré un réel potentiel de transformation de notre façon d’appréhender la biodiversité des insectes, d’une part en terme d’échelle avec les capacités haut-débit des NGS et la simplicité, la fiabilité et la rapidité des identifications moléculaires, mais aussi en levant le verrou taxonomique qui rendait presque impossible toute étude faunistique ou écologique ambitieuse par son échantillonnaGe taxonomique et GéoGraphique. Cette transformation s’applique par exemple pour mes travaux actuels sur les communautés de coléoptères saproxyliques en France (cette catéGorie fonctionnelle renferme 2500 espèces dans 71 familles et requiert donc une expertise taxonomique considérable, disséminée et difficilement accessible pour de larges volumes d’échantillons) au cours desquels je développe une approche métabarcodinG qui permet un chanGement d’échelle dans l’étude de ces insectes comme indicateurs forestiers ou pour le suivi d’espèces à caractère patrimonial. Parallèlement, j’applique des méthodes similaires à l’étude de faunes tropicales hyper-diverses et mal connues (en Afrique au Gabon et en Amérique du Sud en Amazonie, notamment au sein d’agroécosystèmes forestiers) pour documenter et comparer la structure et la composition de communautés de lépidoptères et produire rapidement des estimateurs de diversité (alpha-, beta- diversité) tout en construisant des librairies de référence aussi documentées que possible taxonomiquement Grâce aux efforts d’un réseau international de taxonomistes.

Biota Neotrop. 12(3): http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v12n3/en/abstract?thematic-review+bn02412032012 Abstract: Molecular tools have been used in taxonomy for the purpose of identification and classification of living organisms. Among these, a short sequence of the mitochondrial DNA, popularly known as DNA barcoding, has become very popular. However, the usefulness and dependability of DNA barcodes have been recently questioned because mitochondrial pseudogenes, non-functional copies of the mitochondrial DNA incorporated into the nuclear genome, have been found in various taxa. When these paralogous sequences are amplified together with the mitochondrial DNA, they may go unnoticed and end up being analyzed as if they were orthologous sequences. In this contribution the different points of view regarding the implications of mitochondrial pseudogenes for entomology are reviewed and discussed. A discussion of the problem from a historical and conceptual perspective is presented as well as a discussion of strategies to keep these nuclear mtDNA copies out of sequence analyzes.

Idalus larissa Druce, 1890 comb. rev. is the male of Idalus albescens (Rothschild, 1909) syn. nov. Euplesia sphingidea (Perty, [1833]) is the male of Delphyre varians Hampson, 1901 syn. nov. and Apiconoma opposita (Walker, 1854) is the male of Delphyre aclytioides Hampson, 1901 syn. nov. Moreover two new species of the genus Apiconoma and one species of the genus Glaucostola, all collected in Brazil, are described: Apiconoma witti sp. nov., Apiconoma mojui sp. nov. and Glaucostola indagata sp. nov. Several distances trees and pictures of all male (and one female) genitalia are provided. Distributions for all new species are discussed. Key words: Apiconoma, Euplesia, Idalus, Glaucostola, Arctiinae, Phaegopterina, new species, dimorphic female, Brazil, French Guiana. Introduction Since a few years now, the so-called "barcoding" technique has been established as a very useful tool for the general classification and the discovery of cryptic species but always in association with more usual investigations such as habitus and genitalia observations and also taking into account some geographic considerations.

Interspecific hybridisation is a rare but widespread phenomenon identified as a potential complicating factor for the identification of species through DNA barcoding. Hybrids can, however, also deceive morphology-based taxonomy, resulting in the description of invalid species based on hybrid specimens. As the result of an unexpected case of discordance between barcoding results and current morphology-based taxonomy, we discovered an example of such a hybrid ‘species’ in hawkmoths. By combining barcodes, morphology and a nuclear marker, we show that Gnathothlibus collardi Haxaire, 2002 is actually an F1 hybrid between two closely related species that co-occur on Tahiti. In accordance with the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, the taxon G. collardi is thus invalid as a species. This study demonstrates the potential of DNA barcodes to detect overlooked hybrid taxa. With the growth of sequence libraries, we anticipate that more unsuspected hybrid species will be detected, particularly among those taxa that are very rare, such as those known from only the type specimen.

Currently, reference databases are being compiled. In the future, it will be important to facilitate access to these databases, especially for nonspecialist users. The method described here provides a rapid, web-based, user- friendly link between the DNA sequence from an unidentified biological specimen and various types of biological infor- mation, including the species name. Specifically, we use a customized, Google-type search algorithm to quickly match an unknown DNA sequence to a list of verified DNA barcodes in the reference database. In addition to retrieving the species name, our web tool also provides automatic links to a range of other information about that species. As the DNA barcode database becomes more populated, it will become increasingly important for the broader user community to be able to exploit it for the rapid identification of unknown specimens and to easily obtain relevant biological information about these species. The application presented here meets that need. Keywords: DNA barcoding, bioinformatics, database searching Received 5 January 2010; revision accepted 26 May 2010 We have exploited the power of the Google search Introduction engine (Singer & Hajibabaei 2009) to rapidly search DNA barcoding is an innovative method for identifying through the database of DNA barcodes.

  • The Effects of Morphology on Feeding Behavior in the Family Sphingidae
    The effects of morphology on feeding behavior in the family Sphingidae Andrew S. Lima School of Public and Environmental Affairs, Indiana University, Bloomington _____________________________________________________________________________________________ RESUMEN El propósito de este experimento era para examinar como las características morfológicas tienen gusto de la longitud de la probóscide, peso, y se van volando el área superficial, afectan anchura de la dieta en la familia Sphingidae (orden Lepidóptera) en el bosque mojado en Monteverde, provincia de Puntarenas, Costa Rica del premontane tropical. Recogí 60 hawkmoths a partir de 11 especies entre Octubre del 18 y Noviembre del 18 del Estación Biológica de Monteverde y del Cerro Plano Jardín de Mariposas, tomando medidas morfológicas y muestras del polen de sus probóscides. No había una relación significativa entre la longitud de la probóscide y la riqueza del polen (p = 0.9049), ni entre la especie (p = 0.4358). Una correlación significativa fue considerada entre la longitud de la probóscide y el área forewing en un cociente de cerca de 1:1 (p = 0.0083). El peso, la probóscide, y el área forewing eran perceptiblemente diferentes entre la especie (p < 0.0001 para todos los parámetros). Encontré que las características morfológicas no se parecían afectar directamente riqueza del polen pero que los cambios estacionales en la abundancia de floras y una combinación de factores morfológicos y metabólicos pueden ser la causa de la diferenciación de la dieta entre la especie de la polilla del sphingid. ABSTRACT The purpose of this field experiment was to examine how morphological characteristics like proboscis length, weight, and wing surface area, affect diet breadth in the family Sphingidae (order Lepidoptera) in tropical premontane wet forest in Monteverde, Puntarenas province, Costa Rica.

Increased conversion of native primary forest to alternative land-uses, including secondary forest and exotic tree plantations, highlights the importance of assessing diversity patterns within these forest types. We sampled 1848 moths from 335 species of Arctiidae, Saturniidae and Sphingidae, over a total of 30 trap-nights. Sampling was conducted during the wet season 2005, using three light-traps at 15 sites within areas of primary forest, secondary forest and Eucalyptus urograndis plantations in northern Brazilian Amazonia. The Jari study region provides one of the best opportunities to investigate the ecological consequences of land-use change, and this study is one of the first to examine patterns of diversity for a neotropical moth assemblage in a human-dominated landscape in lowland Amazonia.
