Some findings of a collecting trip in September 1993 (Lepidoptera, Macrolepidoptera) by STOYAN B es h k o v received 16. IV. 1994 Abstract: This article is a result of a collecting trip of the author in Albania during September 17th—26th. Data for 108 Macrolepidoptera species are presented. 7 genera and 26 species are new for the fauna of Albania. One species - Nola squalida Staudinger , 1870 is new for the Balkan peninsula; for two other species their occurrence in the Balkans is assured. For the mentioned species all known localities are given using the available literature about Alba­ nia after Rebel & Z erny (1931). Illustrations of the male and female genitalia as well as photographs of a large portion of the species are given. During September, 17th—26th 1993 I had the possibility of visiting Albania for a second time. The collecting trip had been made by car. The trip involved primarily the Albanian sea coast due to the availability of roads. My previous trip had shown this to be one of the most inter­ esting area whose species differ from those found in the countryside. More over, the moun­ tains are unattractive concerning Lepidoptera during this season. Part of the material was collected by a Bulgarian student, Boyan Petrov , a member of the Bulgarian speleological expedition in North Albania, May-June 1993. All the localities mentioned in this paper are marked on the map and explained in the text. The uncommented moths were collected by the author using a 250W UV-lamp and are part of the author's collection. Only a small part of the species (Geometridae: Sterrhinae, Laren- tiinae) is still undetermined. Another part of the species (migrants) are published (Beshkov , 1995). Genital preparations are made by the author for most of the specimens. A portion of them are figured here. This is to avoid future misunderstandings concerning the identity of the species reported. It is necessary, because there are some doubts about correct determina­ tion and recently reported species by Albanian authors. Furthermore, following Rebel & Z erny (1931), no illustrations of Albanian specimens and their genitals have been made. The pictures of the genitalia were taken by Mr. I. Stoychev and the author. The map was prepared by Mr. S. Abadjiev (Sofia). The picture of the Lepidoptera species were taken by the author together with S. Y otov . Because of difficult access to most articles, as they are inaccessible having been published in Albania in Albanian, all the literature for the country after Rebel & Z erny (1931) is referred here. Thus all the localities mentioned prior in literature, are given for the species mentioned in this article. For every locality all authors in chronological order are given. The systematic order of the families given follows Leraut (1980) and Arbeitsgemeinschaft Nordbayeri - scher Entomologen (1988). The systematic of the family Noctuidae is given according to Fibiger & H acker (1990). 3 6 5 ©Ges. zur Förderung d. Erforschung von Insektenwanderungen e.V.

    Esperiana Band 14: 545-558 Schwanfeld, 19. Dezember 2008 ISBN 3-938249-08-0 The Moths Fauna (Lepidoptera) of Şile in the Asian Part of Istanbul Province, Turkey (pl. 39) Thomas BARON Key Words: Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea, Turkey, Istanbul Stichworte: Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea, Türkei, Istanbul Deutsche Zusammenfassung Der vorliegende Artikel berichtet über die Fangergebnisse von Noctuoiden und anderen Nachtfaltern in Şile, einer Kleinstadt am Schwarzen Meer in Westanatolien / Türkei. Der Ort und der Landkeis Şile sind Teil der Provinz Istanbul. Einige weitere Fangergeb- nisse des Autors in anderen Teilen der Provinz Istanbul sind ebenfalls aufgeführt. Betrachtet wurden Arten der Familien Notodontidae, Nolidae, Arctiidae, Lymantriidae, Erebidae, Noctuidae, Sphingidae, Lasiocam- pidae, Saturniidae, Drepanidae und Thyatiridae. Nicht berücksichtigt wurden Microlepidoptera und Geometridae. Die Artenliste wurde, wo nötig oder sinnvoll, mit einigen zusätzlichen Angaben angereichert, die allgemeine Verbreitung, ähnliche Arten oder das Vorkommen in Şile und anderen Teilen der Provinz Istanbul kommentieren. Für jede Art wird mit römischen Ziffern angegeben, in welchem Monat die Fänge erfolgt sind. Hierbei bedeutet (b) Anfang, (m) Mitte und (e) Ende des Monats. Die Zahl der gefangenen Spezimens wurde als grober Schätzwert für die tatsächliche Häufigkeit verwandt und die Arten dement- sprechend in vier Kategorien eingeteilt: vc – sehr häufig c – häufig s - vereinzelt r – selten Es wird deutlich, dass die Fauna Istanbuls derjenigen Rumäniens und mehr noch derjenigen Bulgariens ähnelt, beides Länder, die ebenfalls am Schwarzen Meer liegen. Da Istanbul aber auch mediterranen Einflüssen unterliegt, ist eine stärkere Vertretung des mediterranen Faunenelementes zu beobachten. Nur eine der festgestellten Arten wurde bisher in Bulgarien noch nicht gefunden, für Rumänien sind es einige mehr.

  • Cataleg Biodiversitat Albufera Mallorca 1998
    Edita: Conselleria de Medi Ambient Direcció General de Biodiversitat Dibuix de la coberta: Joan Miquel Bennàssar Impressió: Gràfiques Son Espanyolet Diposit Legal: PM 1992-2002 Pròleg Aquesta obra que teniu a les mans és el producte d’un llarg procés de recerca i d’investiga- ció. És el resultat de més de 12 anys de treballs que han duit a terme els científics del grup s‘Albufera-IBG i molts d‘altres experts i aficionats que han aportat l’esforç i els coneixe- ments per completar aquesta visió global de la biodiversitat de s‘Albufera de Mallorca. Un cos de coneixements que s’ha anat formant pas a pas, com és característic de tot procés cien- tífic. La Conselleria de Medi Ambient és ben conscient que la conservació del patrimoni natural no es pot fer sense els estudis que ens han de permetre conèixer quins són els recursos sota la nostra responsabilitat i quin valor tenen. De cada vegada el gran públic coneix més quines són les espècies amenaçades i les accions per conservar-les troben ressò en els mitjans de comunicació i en la sensibilitat de la socie- tat en general. Però cal demanar-se: estam fent tot allò que és necessari per garantir la con- servació del patrimoni natural per a les generacions pròximes? Són suficients els coneixe- ments actuals d’aquest patrimoni? Quines espècies o quines poblacions són les més valuo- ses? Aquest llibre ajudarà a respondre algunes d‘aquestes preguntes. És un compromís entre la visió del científic, que sempre desitja aprofundir en l’estudi, i els gestors, que demanen amb urgència unes eines adequades per planificar les accions de conservació i avaluar-les.

  • Primi Dati Sui Lepidotteri Eteroceri Della Riserva Naturale Regionale Guidata “Gole Del Sagittario” (Italia Centrale, Abruzzo)
    PRIMI DATI SUI LEPIDOTTERI ETEROCERI DELLA RISERVA NATURALE REGIONALE GUIDATA “GOLE DEL SAGITTARIO” (ITALIA CENTRALE, ABRUZZO) a cura del dott. ANDREA GRASSI (c/o Museo Civico di Zoologia di Roma, Via U. Aldrovandi 18, I-00197 Roma, e-mail: [email protected]) Ricerca realizzata nell’anno 2005 e finanziata da WWF Italia, Regione Abruzzo e Comune di Anversa degli Abruzzi INTRODUZIONE L’acquisizione di conoscenze faunistiche ed ecologiche relative a più specie animali appartenenti ad un medesimo taxon in un ben preciso ambito geografico sono i presupposti che permettono di percepire sfumature ambientali di rilevante importanza ecologica e progettare adeguati interventi di conservazione. In tal senso i Lepidotteri, ed in particolar modo quelli ad attività notturna, si sono rivelati dei candidati ideali per l’elevato numero di specie, per il forte legame con la componente vegetale nonché per l’eterogeneità degli adattamenti sviluppati nel corso della loro evoluzione. Sebbene negli ultimi anni si siano intensificate le ricerche lepidotterologiche di carattere ecologico e faunistico nei massicci interni abruzzesi (Zilli, 1997; Dell'Agata, 2003; Grassi, 2003), dati faunistici pregressi sui Lepidotteri Eteroceri dell’alta valle del Sagittario sono quasi del tutto inesistenti, se si eccettuano poche ed isolate notizie su lavori più generali (Dannehl, 1933; Prola et al., 1978a, 1978b). Con la presente ricerca, pertanto, si fornisce un primo contributo alla conoscenza della lepidotterofauna della Riserva Naturale Regionale Guidata “Gole del Sagittario”. Le indagini, effettuate nell’arco di tempo di due mesi, hanno portato alla stesura di una checklist preliminare dei Lepidotteri a volo notturno (Eteroceri). Essa può considerarsi il punto di partenza per successive ricerche, volte al raggiungimento di un inventario faunistico sempre più rappresentativo della reale diversità biotica che la Riserva ospita e per azioni di conservazione attraverso l’uso di questi insetti come indicatori della qualità dell’ambiente.

Plaça Leonardo da Vinci, 4-5; E-08019 Barcelona [email protected] Abstract. Results of the ninth Catalan Moth Nights: 14–18 June 2012. The global results of the ninth Catalan Moth Nights (CMN) are presented. This event is organized once a year by the Catalan Lepi- dopterological Society in Catalonia and Andorra. On this occasion the CMN were held on the nights of 14–18 June 2012, and 74 people took part in the event. In all, 74 localities in Andorra and in 25 Catalan counties, with an altitudinal range of about 2,100 m, were sampled. The number of species recorded was the highest since the CMN began. In total 5,729 moths were recorded belonging to 712 species from 47 families. It is worth highlighting the first record for Catalonia of the Tischeriidae Tischeria dodonaea Stt., the Tineidae Nemapogon variatella (Clem.), the Gelechiidae Prolita sexpunctella (F.) and Athrips amoenella (Frey), and the Tortricidae Cydia trogodana Pröse. Resum. Es presenten les dades globals obtingudes durant les novenes Nits de les Papallones (Catalan Moth Nights, CMN), que la Societat Catalana de Lepidopterologia organitza un cop l’any a Catalunya i Andorra. En aquesta ocasió es van celebrar del 14 al 18 de juny de 2012 i hi van participar 74 persones. En total es van mostrejar 74 localitats situades en 25 comarques de Catalunya o a Andorra i que abasta- ven un rang altitudinal de 2.100 m.

  • Butterflies and Moths (Insecta: Lepidoptera) of the Lokrum Island, Southern Dalmatia
    NAT. CROAT. VOL. 29 Suppl.No 2 1227-24051-57 ZAGREB DecemberMarch 31, 31, 2021 2020 original scientific paper / izvorni znanstveni rad DOI 10.20302/NC.2020.29.29 BUTTERFLIES AND MOTHS (INSECTA: LEPIDOPTERA) OF THE LOKRUM ISLAND, SOUTHERN DALMATIA Toni Koren Association Hyla, Lipovac I 7, HR-10000 Zagreb, Croatia (e-mail: [email protected]) Koren, T.: Butterflies and moths (Insecta: Lepidoptera) of the Lokrum island, southern Dalmatia. Nat. Croat., Vol. 29, No. 2, 227-240, 2020, Zagreb. In 2016 and 2017 a survey of the butterflies and moth fauna of the island of Lokrum, Dubrovnik was carried out. A total of 208 species were recorded, which, together with 15 species from the literature, raised the total number of known species to 223. The results of our survey can be used as a baseline for the study of future changes in the Lepidoptera composition on the island. In comparison with the lit- erature records, eight butterfly species can be regarded as extinct from the island. The most probable reason for extinction is the degradation of the grassland habitats due to the natural succession as well as the introduction of the European Rabbit and Indian Peafowl. Their presence has probably had a tremendously detrimental effect on the native flora and fauna of the island. To conserve the Lepidop- tera fauna of the island, and the still remaining biodiversity, immediate eradication of these introduced species is needed.

  • (Lepidoptera) from a Location Near Marmaris in South-Western Anatolia, Turkey
    Esperiana Band 19: 263-296 Bad Staffelstein; 26. November 2014 ISBN 978-3-938249-06-2 Collection records of Noctuoidea and Bombycoidea (Lepidoptera) from a Location near Marmaris in South-Western Anatolia, Turkey Thomas BARON Key Words: Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea, Bombycoidea, Western Anatolia, Turkey Stichworte: Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea, Bombycoidea, Westanatolien, Türkei Deutsche Zusammenfassung Der Artikel fasst die Fangergebnisse des Autors in Turunç zusammen, einem kleinen Urlaubsort am Mittelmeer nahe Mar- maris in der Südwesttürkei. Gegenstand der Untersuchung sind die taxonomischen Gruppen Noctuoidea, Bombycoidea, Drepanoidea und Axioidea. Die Fänge erfolgten überwiegend am Licht. Diese Region der Türkei ist trotz leichter Erreichbarkeit erstaunlich schlecht erforscht. Es gibt für die Provinz Mugla bisher fast keine Daten für Nachtfalterfänge. Die Untersuchung fand über alle Jahreszeiten und an insgesamt 456 Tagen statt. Es wurde anhand der insgesamt über 4400 registrierten Individuen eine grobe Klassifizierung der Häufigkeit vorgenommen. Insgesamt konnten 168 Arten festgestellt werden. Die Zahl von Arten, die trotz derart langer Anstrengungen nur einmal festgestellt wurden, ist mit 25 relativ hoch. Es daher zu erwarten, dass einige weitere hier nicht aufgeführte Arten vorkommen. Für eine Reihe der festgestellten Spezies existieren bisher nur wenige Nachweise aus der Türkei. Eine Art ist neu für das Land. Weiterhin kann bei einigen nahverwandten Arten ein Beitrag zur Klärung von Verbreitungsgrenzen geleistet werden, die z.T. gerade in Kleinasien unklar sind. Durch das vor allem in Sommer extrem heisse und trockene Klima und den milden Winter fliegen einige Arten früher als bekannt. Viele hingegen fliegen später in den Herbst und Winter hinein, so dass eine ganze Reihe von in der Literatur nicht bekannten Flugzeiten aufgezeigt werden kann.
