Larvae become active in May, continue to feed, and then pupate around mid-June. Pupation lasts about 15-18 days. Currentprotection efforts at Mitchell's satyr sites are aimed at preventing urban and agricultural development, activities that could alter the fen's hydrology, and collecting. Although some woody growth appears necessary, long-term manage­ ment of sites will involve some level of woody-plant control as a meansto slow succession. Fire and hand-cu tting arebeing considered as habitat management tools. One recent and ongoing controversy in Michigan is the proposed rou te for the final 12 -mile section ofa new highway, U.s. 31, tha t will form a majornorth-sou th link between South Bend, Indiana and Benton Harbor, Michigan. The current plan is for the highway to bisect one particular fen, the Blue Creek fen, that harbors a large population of Mitchell's satyr butterflies. The original Environmental Impact Statement, written in 1978, did not address the Mitchell's satyr, which is The Endangered Mitchell's understandable given that this insect was not federally listed until 1991. Nevertheless, because the insect is now federally listed and the highway project has not yet beencompleted, the Satyr: Biology and Controversy Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 comes into play. The ESA states, in part, that it is unlawful to take any endangered Robert A. Haack and Susan H. Walker species of fish or wildlife.

  • The Origins of Word Processing and Office Automation
    Remembering the Office of the Future: The Origins of Word Processing and Office Automation Thomas Haigh University of Wisconsin Word processing entered the American office in 1970 as an idea about reorganizing typists, but its meaning soon shifted to describe computerized text editing. The designers of word processing systems combined existing technologies to exploit the falling costs of interactive computing, creating a new business quite separate from the emerging world of the personal computer. Most people first experienced word processing using a word processor, we think of a software as an application of the personal computer. package, such as Microsoft Word.

  • The Radiation of Satyrini Butterflies (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae): A
    Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2011, 161, 64–87. With 8 figures The radiation of Satyrini butterflies (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae): a challenge for phylogenetic methods CARLOS PEÑA1,2*, SÖREN NYLIN1 and NIKLAS WAHLBERG1,3 1Department of Zoology, Stockholm University, 106 91 Stockholm, Sweden 2Museo de Historia Natural, Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Av. Arenales 1256, Apartado 14-0434, Lima-14, Peru 3Laboratory of Genetics, Department of Biology, University of Turku, 20014 Turku, Finland Received 24 February 2009; accepted for publication 1 September 2009 We have inferred the most comprehensive phylogenetic hypothesis to date of butterflies in the tribe Satyrini. In order to obtain a hypothesis of relationships, we used maximum parsimony and model-based methods with 4435 bp of DNA sequences from mitochondrial and nuclear genes for 179 taxa (130 genera and eight out-groups). We estimated dates of origin and diversification for major clades, and performed a biogeographic analysis using a dispersal–vicariance framework, in order to infer a scenario of the biogeographical history of the group. We found long-branch taxa that affected the accuracy of all three methods. Moreover, different methods produced incongruent phylogenies. We found that Satyrini appeared around 42 Mya in either the Neotropical or the Eastern Palaearctic, Oriental, and/or Indo-Australian regions, and underwent a quick radiation between 32 and 24 Mya, during which time most of its component subtribes originated. Several factors might have been important for the diversification of Satyrini: the ability to feed on grasses; early habitat shift into open, non-forest habitats; and geographic bridges, which permitted dispersal over marine barriers, enabling the geographic expansions of ancestors to new environ- ments that provided opportunities for geographic differentiation, and diversification.

Both names should also be considered junior synonyms of Caeruleuptychia urania (Butler, 1867), a sexu- ally dimorphic species of Amazonian distribution. On the other hand, Euptychia similis Henao-Bañol, 2019, so far known from the Colombian Amazon, is a junior homonym of Euptychia similis Butler, 1867. Both entities represent valid, recog- nizable and distinct species. However, the most recent name is nomenclaturally invalid. Therefore, it is herein proposed its replacement by Euptychia efraini, nom. nov. Keywords: Caeruleuptychia, Cissia, Euptychia, sexual dimorphism, Vareuptychia. RESUMEN Los nombres Euptychia caerulea Butler, 1869 y Caeruleuptychia sinchi Henao-Bañol, 2019 se reconocen como representan- tes de un mismo taxón.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons license CC BY-NC 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/ licenses/by-nc/4.0/). Abstract: The present paper describes the immature stages of two species of Moneuptychia, namely Moneuptychia soter, the type species of the genus, and Moneuptychia vitellina. The immature stages of the two species are very similar; eggs are white and round, with longitudinal and transverse ribs; first instars are light green, turning light brown with longitudinal zigzag stripes in the last instars; pupae are short, brown, without ornamentation or projections and with short squared ocular caps. The immature stages of both species here described are quite similar to other species of the genus Moneuptychia and to other representatives of the “Megisto clade”, underlining the potential importance of immature stages as sources of phylogenetically informative characters in Euptychiina.
