The moth exists only in captivity, having been artificially selected from a wild progenitor, generally recognized as Samia canningi (Hutton) of the Himalayas. In the taxonomic and sericultural literature, there has been considerable confusion and inconsistency regarding the correct authorship of the name Phalaena ricini as originally described. The author of P. ricini has most often been cited as Boisduval, but other researchers have attributed authorship to Anderson, Jones, Donovan, or Hutton. The original description was located, thus revealing that P. ricini should be credited to Sir William Jones. In turn, the date of publication fixes the nameP. ricini as the senior subjective synonym for both the wild and cultivated entities, thereby forcing Saturnia canningi into synonymy.

    PROCEEDINGS OF THE Denver Museum of Natural History SERIES 3, NUMBER 3, OCTOBER 15, 1993 A REVIEW OF THE GENUS AGAPEMA (LEPIDOPTERA: SATURNIIDAE) RICHARD S. PEIGLER Department of Zoology, Denver Museum of Natural History 2001 Colorado Boulevard, Denver, Colorado 80205-5798 and ROY O. KENDALL 5598 Mt. McKinley Drive N.E. San Antonio, Texas 78251-3626 ABSTRACT — Agapema is a genus of saturniid moths ranging in Mexico and the southwestern United States. Agapema galbina, the type-species, was found to be misidenti- fied by authors during the last 21 years. John Pope collected the original type specimens in the lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas, not in western Texas. Agapema platensis, spec. nov., is described from the Edwards Plateau of Texas. Four taxa in far western Texas (dyari, nom. rev.), Arizona and western Mexico (anona, stat. rev.), Baja California (pelora, stat. nov.) and northeastern Mexico (dentifasciata, stat. nov.), previously considered to he subspecies of galbina, are elevated to full species rank based on larval and genitalic dif- ferences. The female and mature larva of dentifasciata and mature larvae of dyari and platensis are described for the first time. Figures and a key to the adult moths are pro- vided. The distribution of each species is plotted on a map. All known records for host- plants and parasitoids are tabulated, and phylogeny, habitats, and other field observa- tions are discussed. KEYWORDS: Agapema, Arizona, Colorado, Condalia, galbina, Mexico, moths, par- asitoids, Rhamnaceae, Saturnia, Saturniidae, taxonomy, Texas PEIGLER AND KENDALL The genus Agapema is a holophyletic group of TAMU— Texas A&M University, College small to medium-sized nocturnal saturniid moths that Station range in southwestern North America south to the region SDNHM— San Diego Natural History Museum, of Mexico City.

  • Special Edition: Moths Interview with Bart Coppens, Guest Speaker at ICBES 2017
    INTERNATIONAL ASSOCI ATION OF BUTTERFLY EXHIBITORS AND SUPPL IERS Volume 16 Number 3 MAI– JUNE 2017 Visit us on the web at www.iabes.org Special edition: moths Interview with Bart Coppens, guest speaker at ICBES 2017 Who are you? I’m Bart Coppens (24) from the Netherlands – a fervent breeder of moths and aspiring entomologist. In my home I breed over 50 species of moths (mainly Saturniidae) on yearly basis. My goal is to expand what started out as a hobby into something more scientific. It turns out the life cycle and biology of many Saturni- idae is poorly known or even unrecorded. By importing eggs and cocoons of rare and obscure species and breeding them in cap- tivity I am able to record undescribed larvae, host plants and the life history of several moth species – information that I publish on a scientific level. My ambition is also to gradually get into more difficult subjects such as the taxonomy, morphology and evolution and perhaps even the organic chemistry (in terms of defensive chemicals) of Saturniidae – but for now these subjects are still beyond my le- Bart with Graellsia isabella vel of comprehension, as relatively young person that has not yet completed a formal education. I’d also like to say I have a general passion for all kinds of Lepidoptera, from butterflies to the tiniest species of moths, I truly like all of them. The reason I mention Saturniidae so much is because I have invested most of my time and expertise into this particular family of Lepidoptera, simply because this order of insects is too big to study on a general scale, so I decided to specialise myself a little in the kinds of moths I find the most impressi- ve and fascinating myself – and was already the most familiar with due to my breeding hobby.

  • Sensitivity of Upland Arthropod Diversity to Livestock Grazing
    WFL Publisher Science and Technology Food, Agriculture & Environment Vol.1(2) : 301-307. 2003 www.world-food.net Sensitivity of upland arthropod diversity to livestock grazing, vegetation structure and landform Peter Dennis Macaulay Institute, Craigiebuckler, Aberdeen, AB15 8QH, Scotland, UK. e-mail: [email protected] Received 13 January 2003, accepted 30 April 2003. Abstract Livestock production extends to most non-forested, marginal, upland habitats of Britain. Of these, indigenous grasslands are stocked predominantly by sheep, stocking densities having increased in Scotland by 25% between 1975 and 1990. Conversely, the national herd of cattle in Scotland declined by 22% over the same period. The effects of grazing management on arthropod distribution and abundance is reviewed, with particular emphasis on the results of grazing experiments that have investigated the effects on arthropods of varied livestock species and stocking rates. Arthropods contribute the most species of any taxa in the uplands and are critical in upland food chains. The direction and magnitude of the response of different arthropod taxa to grazing management reflects their trophic level, life history, size and mobility, e.g., 30 % of ground and rove beetle species are more sensitive to landform than grazing manage- ment. For the arthropod taxa that are sensitive to grazing management, the effects are generally indirect, via changes in the heterogeneity of botanical composition and vegetation structure. A mosaic of contrasting botanical composition and structural heterogeneity is essential to conserve and enhance arthropod and broader wildlife diversity in the uplands. However, the landscape-scale study of mammalian herbivore-vegetation-arthropod interactions is required both to quantify the relative importance of land use (grazing management) and landform (landscape physiognomy) across the uplands and to determine the optimal grain-size of the habitat mosaic to sustain biodiversity.

  • The Lepidoptera of Bucharest and Its Surroundings (Romania)
    Travaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle © 30 Décembre Vol. LIV (2) pp. 461–512 «Grigore Antipa» 2011 DOI: 10.2478/v10191-011-0028-9 THE LEPIDOPTERA OF BUCHAREST AND ITS SURROUNDINGS (ROMANIA) LEVENTE SZÉKELY Abstract. This study presents a synthesis of the current knowledge regarding the Lepidoptera fauna of Bucharest and the surrounding areas within a distance up to 50 kilometers around the Romanian capital. Data about the fauna composition are presented: the results of the research work beginning with the end of the 19th century, as well the results of the research work carried out in the last 15 years. The research initiated and done by the author himself, led to the identification of 180 species which were unknown in the past. Even if the natural habitats from this region have undergone through radical changes in the 20th century, the area still preserves a quite rich and interesting Lepidoptera fauna. The forests provide shelter to rich populations of the hawk moth Dolbina elegans A. Bang-Haas, 1912, one of the rarest Sphingidae in Europe, and some other species with high faunistical and zoogeographical value as: Noctua haywardi (Tams, 1926) (it is new record for the Romanian fauna from this area), Catocala dilecta (Hübner, 1808), Tarachidia candefacta (Hübner, [1831]), Chrysodeixis chalcites (Esper, [1789]), Aedia leucomelas (Linnaeus, 1758), and Hecatera cappa (Hübner, [1809]). We also present and discuss the current status of the protected Lepidoptera species from the surroundings of the Romanian capital for the first time. Résumé. Ce travail représente une synthèse des connaissances actuelles concernant la faune de lépidoptères de Bucarest et de ses zones limitrophes sur un rayon de 50 km autour de la capitale de la Roumanie.
