E-mail: [email protected] *Corresponding author Received: 12 February 2019│ Accepted by V. Pešić: 10 March 2019 │ Published online: 25 March 2019. Two Pterophoridae species, Oidaematophorus constanti (Ragonot, 1875) and Calyciphora ludmilae Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich, 2011, found in the Altai mountains, are indicated for the fauna of Russia for the first time. A disjunctive type of habitat is established for these species for the first time. It is revealed that Gillmeria ochrodactyla ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775), is distributed to the East significantly farther, up to Baikal. Pterophoridae (Lepidoptera) of South Siberia, and of Altai in particular, are relatively well studied. Dozens of expeditions have been performed in this region, significant materials of several thousands specimens have been examined, there are numerous publications on the Pterophoridae fauna of South Siberia (Ustjuzhanin 1990, 1996, 2011; Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich 2002, 2007a, 2007b, 2008, 2011, 2017; Ustjuzhanin et al. 2017). However, the recent unexpected discoveries of two Pterophoridae species in Altai turned out to be sensational. Thus, Calyciphora ludmilae Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich 2011 found in Altai, is separated by 2500 km from its type habitat on Trans-Alay ridge in Kyrgyzstan. The other species, Oidaematophorus constanti (Ragonot, 1875), inhabiting South Europe, and its specimen, found in Altai, are separated by 5000 km. The third species, Gillmeria ochrodactyla ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775), known for Europe, West Siberia and Middle Asia, is found much east, on the southern shore of Lake Baikal. This disjunction of habitats evokes a certain zoogeographic interest and suggests that the mountain belts stretching from Europe through Front and Central Asia to Siberia are corridors (paths) for the species settlement.

This species was unexpectedly found in the Altai mountains, at an altitude of 2400 m, while its type habitat is in highlands of Trans-Alay ridge in Kyrgyzstan at altitudes more than 3000 m. This finding is new for the fauna of Russia. Oidaematophorus constanti (Ragonot, 1875) Oedaematophorus constanti Ragonot, 1875: CCV [205]. (Type locality: France). Distribution: South Europe, Russia (Altai Republic). Note. This South-European species, as well as the previous one, is an unexpected finding in the Altai mountains. Is was discovered by the Russian-Austrian expedition in Altai in August 2016 (Huemer et al., 2016). O. constanti is a new species for the fauna of Russia.

Sanchiz (*) RESUMEN Durante el periodo 1978-1994 se han descrito cerca de 2.000 especies animales nue- vas para la ciencia en territorio ibérico-balear. Se presenta como apéndice un listado completo de las especies (1978-1993), ordenadas taxonómicamente, así como de sus referencias bibliográficas. Como tendencias generales en este proceso de inventario de la biodiversidad se aprecia un incremento moderado y sostenido en el número de taxones descritos, junto a una cada vez mayor contribución de los autores españoles. Es cada vez mayor el número de especies publicadas en revistas que aparecen en el Science Citation Index, así como el uso del idioma inglés. La mayoría de los phyla, clases u órdenes mues- tran gran variación en la cantidad de especies descritas cada año, dado el pequeño núme- ro absoluto de publicaciones. Los insectos son claramente el colectivo más estudiado, pero se aprecia una disminución en su importancia relativa, asociada al incremento de estudios en grupos poco conocidos como los nematodos.

The newly recorded moths and butterflies were resting in caves during daytime in the the warm season, three species were also overwintering there. We observed Catocala elocata at 28 cave inspections, followed by Mormo maura (18), Catocala nupta (7), Peribatodes rhomboidaria, and Euplagia quadripunctaria (6). More than half of the species have been repeatedly observed in caves in Austria or abroad, so their relationship with such sites is apparently not completely random. Since the increase of records in Austria coincided with a considerable rise in the annual number of hot days (maximum temperatures ≥30°C) from 2015 onwards, we interpret the growing inclination of certain Lepidoptera towards daytime sheltering in caves as a behavioral reaction to climate warming. Keywords: Lepidoptera, cave use, diurnal retreat, refuge-site preference, climate change Received 22 October 2020; Revised 26 December 2020; Accepted 29 December 2020 Citation: Moog O., Christian E.

Imada Hawaii Biological Survey Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum Honolulu, Hawai‘i 96817, USA Final Report prepared for the U.S. Navy Contribution No. 2021-003 to the Hawaii Biological Survey EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Bishop Museum was contracted by the U.S. Navy to conduct surveys of terrestrial arthropods in Hālona Valley, Naval Magazine Lualualei Annex, in order to assess the status of populations of three groups of insects, including species at risk in those groups: picture-winged Drosophila (Diptera; flies), Hylaeus spp. (Hymenoptera; bees), and Rhyncogonus welchii (Coleoptera; weevils). The first complete survey of Lualualei for terrestrial arthropods was made by Bishop Museum in 1997. Since then, the Bishop Museum has conducted surveys in Hālona Valley in 2015, 2016–2017, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. The current survey was conducted from August 2020 through November 2020, comprising a total of 12 trips; using yellow water pan traps, pitfall traps, hand collecting, aerial net collecting, observations, vegetation beating, and a Malaise trap. The area chosen for study was a Sapindus oahuensis grove on a southeastern slope of mid-Hālona Valley. The area had potential for all three groups of arthropods to be present, especially the Rhyncogonus weevil, which has previously been found in association with Sapindus trees. Trapped and collected insects were taken back to the Bishop Museum for sorting, identification, data entry, and storage and preservation. The results of the surveys proved negative for any of the target groups.
