We also may make your submission available in response to a request under the Official Information Act 1982. www.epa.govt.nz 2 Submission Form I support the application I oppose the application I neither support or oppose the application The reasons for making my submission are1: Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC) supports the proposal to introduce the moth Lathronympha strigana and the leaf beetle Chrysolina abchasica as biological control agents to assist with the management of tutsan (Hypericum androsaemum). An effective biocontrol agent for tutsan will help to slow the spread and impact of this highly invasive species. Tutsan is a well established species throughout New Zealand and is a significant problem in the central north island. It invades pastoral country and regenerating scrublands and forest and the seed is readily spread by birds and through soil and water. Under the GWRC Regional Pest Management Plan (RPMP), GWRC staff and contractors undertake a range of pest plant management. Tutsan is listed in the GWRC RPMP as a NPPA species, meaning that staff inspect nurseries for the sale of this species and control it in high biodiversity sites as required. It currently has a very limited distribution in the Wellington region. Any reduction in the reproductive abilities of tutsan will slow its ability to spread into our region. As with all biocontrol, following the release there will be no control over the moth and beetle, meaning that the testing and management needs to be thorough prior to the release. GWRC supports the processes of the Environmental Protection Authority and the Ministry for Primary Industries for the importation and release of new organisms, and trusts that due diligence will be followed in the assessment of risk by these agencies. As with any introduction, once the organism is successfully introduced, there is little or no ability to control or manage the organism in its wild state. GWRC is a contributor to and participant in the National Biological Control Collective (NBCC), and supports the establishment of biocontrol species. A successful biocontrol agent for tutsan would ease the reliance on manual removal of the plant and herbicides. Through the NBCC GWRC is involved in a growing number of biocontrol projects and believes it is an essential part of the future of pest plant management in New Zealand. With finite resources to control an ever-growing number of problem species, and growing expense and public resistance to traditional chemical control, biocontrol is a cost effective and largely publicly acceptable technique. The successful establishment of these biocontrol agents for tutsan would help to ease the reliance on herbicides for control of this highly invasive species.

An effective biocontrol agent for tutsan will help to slow the spread and impact of this highly invasive species. Establishment of these species as biocontrol agents will greatly assist with the long-term, national management of tutsan. September 2012 EPA0190 SUBMISSION 111595 SUBMISSION 111596 13 January 2016 Sarah Fish Application Lead Environmental Protection Authority By email to: [email protected] Dear Sarah, RE: Beef + Lamb New Zealand submission in support of Application APP202663 to introduce the moth Lathronympha strigana and the leaf beetle Chrysolina abchasica as biological control agents for the weed tutsan Hypericum androsaemum Beef + Lamb New Zealand (B+LNZ) is the farmer-owned organisation representing New Zealand’s 12,300 commercial sheep and beef farming businesses. We are funded under the Commodities Levies Act 1990 through a levy paid by producers on all cattle and sheep commercially slaughtered in New Zealand. Our purpose is to help sheep and beef farmers make informed business decisions and promote their collective interests. The value of the New Zealand red meat sector is around NZ$8.5 billion (for 2013-2014) and is New Zealand’s second largest export earner. As described in the application and supporting documents, tutsan (Hypericum androsaemum) is a serious pasture pest and invasive environmental weed with significant and growing impacts on farm production and the environment.

  • Moths and Management of a Grassland Reserve: Regular Mowing and Temporary Abandonment Support Different Species
    Biologia 67/5: 973—987, 2012 Section Zoology DOI: 10.2478/s11756-012-0095-9 Moths and management of a grassland reserve: regular mowing and temporary abandonment support different species Jan Šumpich1,2 &MartinKonvička1,3* 1Biological Centre CAS, Institute of Entomology, Branišovská 31,CZ-37005 České Budějovice, Czech Republic; e-mail: [email protected] 2Česká Bělá 212,CZ-58261 Česká Bělá, Czech Republic 3Faculty of Sciences, University South Bohemia, Branišovská 31,CZ-37005 České Budějovice, Czech Republic Abstract: Although reserves of temperate seminatural grassland require management interventions to prevent succesional change, each intervention affects the populations of sensitive organisms, including insects. Therefore, it appears as a wise bet-hedging strategy to manage reserves in diverse and patchy manners. Using portable light traps, we surveyed the effects of two contrasting management options, mowing and temporary abandonment, applied in a humid grassland reserve in a submountain area of the Czech Republic. Besides of Macrolepidoptera, we also surveyed Microlepidoptera, small moths rarely considered in community studies. Numbers of individiuals and species were similar in the two treatments, but ordionation analyses showed that catches originating from these two treatments differed in species composition, management alone explaining ca 30 per cent of variation both for all moths and if split to Marcolepidoptera and Microlepidoptera. Whereas a majority of macrolepidopteran humid grassland specialists preferred unmown sections or displayed no association with management, microlepidopteran humid grassland specialists contained equal representation of species inclining towards mown and unmown sections. We thus revealed that even mown section may host valuable species; an observation which would not have been detected had we considered Macrolepidoptera only.

A large number of tortricid species have been inadvertently introduced into North America from Eurasia, and many have the potential to inflict considerable negative economic and ecological impacts. Because native species behave differently than introduced species, it is critical to distinguish between the two. Unfortunately, this can be a difficult task. In the past, many tortricids discovered in North America were assumed to be the same as their Eurasian counterparts, i.e., Holarctic. Using DNA sequence data, morphological characters, food plants, and historical records, we analyzed the origin of 151 species of Tortricidae present in North America. The results indicate that the number of Holarctic species has been overestimated by at least 20%. We also determined that the number of introduced tortricids in North America is unexpectedly high compared other families, with tortricids accounting for approximately 23–30% of the total number of moth and butterfly species introduced to North America.

  • Bat Exploitation of Sitka Spruce Plantations: Impacts of Management on Bats and Nocturnal Invertebrates
    Bat exploitation of Sitka Spruce plantations: Impacts of management on bats and nocturnal invertebrates Lucinda Kirkpatrick Biological and Environmental Sciences School of Natural Sciences University of Stirling October 2016 i Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis has been completed by myself, and it embodies the results of my own research. Where appropriate, I have acknowledged the nature and extent of work carried out in collaboration with others. ……………………………………………………………………. Lucinda Kirkpatrick ii Summary Plantations are widespread throughout temperate regions, and the area of plantation land cover is predicted to get larger in the future. Interest in ensuring sustainable plantation management is also growing, as it is increasingly recognised that productive areas should play a role in biodiversity conservation. Plantation landscapes can comprise the majority of forested cover in some countries, but taxon-specific guidance can be lacking, due to plantations often being under surveyed. Therefore, despite substantial incentives existing to ensure that plantations meet various ecological criteria, plantation managers lack the information necessary to implement effective management plans. Many bat species have undergone widespread declines in recent decades, attributed to habitat loss and fragmentation, particularly of forested habitat. In many temperate countries, historical deforestation has resulted in very low native tree cover, and subsequently, considerable replanting with non-native commercial coniferous plantations has taken place. Species specific habitat surveys have often demonstrated avoidance of conifer plantations by bats, which has been attributed to a lack of roosts and low invertebrate prey abundance. Furthermore, widespread lepidopteran declines have been partly attributed to afforestation with non-native conifer, but moth associations with commercial coniferous plantations are usually only studied for pest species.
