The festive volume of the journal Acta zoologica Academiae scientiarum hungaricae for his 85th anniversary was only posthumously published (BÁLINT 2007), which actually included the funeral oration (MATSKÁSI 2007). In the same year two commemorations were published in the journals of the two lepi- dopterists’ societies, where he had been elected as honorary member (BÁLINT et al.

  • Pheromone Lures Non-Intended Target Species
    Updated July 2021 ALS ALS have been selling pheromone lures since 2004 and started with the Clearwing Classic Six. Over the years we have extended our range with new species, some of which have been made specifically to our demand while also adding lures for various other species of moths. We have collated all our data, much of which have been passed on to us by many customers of which we thank very much especially Tim Green and Graham Ekins (Essex), to produce the below non-target species data base. Pheromone lures are made up of between 4-6 compounds and it is some of these ‘base’ compounds which are acting as an attractant to other species. Although some of the species listed are quite rare to synthetic lure, others do seem to be more frequent. The below data is from the UK and Europe. If you have any additional information, please get in touch with us.

Braci Leśnej 3, 05-090 Raszyn, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The paper presents data on the distribution of 24 species of tineid moths in Poland. The data were obtained based on a few methods of collecting of moths, mainly with use of artificial light and rearing of adults from decaying wood and bracket fungi inhabited by larvae. Nearly a dozen of species were recorded from particular regions of Poland for the first time. The study also revealed the new aspects of biology and ecology of a few species. KEY WORDS: faunistics, biological diversity, Microlepidoptera, clothes moths, fungus moths, bracket fungi, dead wood. Introduction Tineidae (Lepidoptera: Tineidae) constitutes a moth family abundantly represented in the world, distinguishable from among other taxa with original biology and habitat preferences (ROBINSON 2009). Its caterpillars – depending on a given subfamily – are mycetophages, lichenophages, keratophages, or saproxylophages, yet they more rarely feed on living plant parts. The majority of species inhabit old deciduous forests, where a high species diversity of arboreal fungi and rich ornitofauna are maintained. Forest areas that are economically intensively exploited are usually characterised with a low diversity of Tineidae, as the removal of dying and 92 X. DOBRZAŃSKI, T.

Zool. Fennici 40: 495–504. This paper describes patterns of distribution and abundance of insect fungivores inhabiting the polypore Fomitopsis pinicola. I sampled fruiting bodies of the polypore from nine old-growth forest sites in southern Finland. Most species encountered in the present study were rare and only a few species were abundant and widely distributed among the fruiting bodies and study sites. Feeding guild and host-fungus specifi city were the best predictors of species abundance and distribution in the fruiting bodies in that obligate fungivores, and F. pinicola specialists were more common than general- ists, facultative fungivores and parasitoids. Two specialist beetles on F. pinicola, Cis glabratus and C. quadridens (Cisidae), constituted over 78% of all individuals in the pooled sample. Cis quadridens, an old-growth forest species, had lower abundance and frequency of occurrence in the fruiting bodies than C. glabratus, which is a common species also in managed forests. Introduction or dispersal, for example (Roslin & Koivunen 2001, Jonsson 2003).

Fennica 15: 102–112. We compiled the data on the insect assemblage occurring within the polypore Fomitopsis pinicola from six regions in Finland, Sweden and Norway. The spe- cies composition and diversity of the primary fungivorous beetles (Cisidae and Anobidae) were similar across Fennoscandia. The beetles Cis glabratus Mellié (Cisidae) and C. quadridens Mellié were the most frequent species occurring in 70% and 23% of the fruiting bodies on average. Sulcacis fronticornis (Panzer) and Ennearthron cornutum (Gyllenhal) were relatively common in southern Sweden, while absent from the study regions in Norway and Finland. Similarly, Cis bidentatus (Olivier) and Cis dentatus Mellié were rather common in Norway, but almost absent from the Finnish samples. Species relative abundances in the six study regions exhibit more variation, which to some extent corresponds the biogeographical zones. Our results on the high similarity in species composition indicate deterministic nature of the F.pinicola-associated insect assemblage over large spatial scales. On the other hand, climatic factors probably have an impact on the relative abundance of species. Atte Komonen, Faculty of Forestry, University of Joensuu, P.O.
