ABSTRACT. Three Phyllonorycter species namely, Ph. coryli (Nicelli, 1851), Ph. millierella (Staudinger, 1871) and Ph. roboris (Zeller, 1839) are newly reported for the fauna of Iran. These species are collected in Azarbaijan-e Received: Sharghi, Tehran and Kordestan provinces, respectively. The first two species 25 December, 2017 were collected as larvae while feeding on Carpinus betulus L. (Betulaceae) and Celtis australis L. (Cannabaceae), in the order, and the last one collected as Accepted: 03 February, 2018 adult in an Oak forest using light trap. The genus Carpinus L. and C. betulus are newly reported as larval host plant for Ph. coryli. Brief taxonomic Published: characterizations of these species are provided and an updated list of the 04 February, 2018 Phyllonorycter species occurring in Iran is presented.

Introduction The family Gracillariidae constitutes the of the Phyllonorycter species are strictly main plant mining family of Lepidoptera monophagous (Robinson et al., 2001, 2002, (Davis, 1987) and includes almost 2000 2010; De Prins & De Prins, 2005, 2017) and known species in 100 genera (van their larvae feed internally on living plant Nieukerken et al., 2011; De Prins & De tissues. The larval instars are devouring the Prins, 2017). The most species-rich genus of parenchyma cells, making tentiform mines this family, Phyllonorycter Hübner, 1822 on upper or lower surfaces and undergoing (syn., Lithocolletis Hübner, 1825) is assigned all their pre-imaginal stages including the to the subfamily Lithocolletinae and pupa within a mine (Emmet et al., 1985; comprises 401 described species (De Prins Davis & Robinson, 1998).

  • Biological Surveys at Hunsbury Hill Country Park 2018
    FRIENDS OF WEST HUNSBURY PARKS BIOLOGICAL SURVEYS AT HUNSBURY HILL COUNTRY PARK 2018 Ryan Clark Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre April 2019 Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre Introduction Biological records tell us which species are present on sites and are essential in informing the conservation and management of wildlife. In 2018, the Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre ran a number of events to encourage biological recording at Hunsbury Hill Fort as part of the Friends of West Hunsbury Park’s project, which is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Hunsbury Hill Country Park is designated as a Local Wildlife Site (LWS). There are approximately 700 Local Wildlife Sites in Northamptonshire. Local Wildlife Sites create a network of areas, which are important as refuges for wildlife or wildlife corridors. Hunsbury Hill Country Park was designated as a LWS in 1992 for its woodland flora and the variety of habitats that the site possesses. The site also has a Local Geological Site (LGS) which highlights the importance of this site for its geology as well as biodiversity. This will be surveyed by the local geological group in due course. Hunsbury Hill Country Park Local Wildlife Site Boundary 1 Northamptonshire Biodiversity Records Centre (NBRC) supports the recording, curation and sharing of quality verified environmental information for sound decision-making. We hold nearly a million biological records covering a variety of different species groups. Before the start of this project, we looked to see which species had been recorded at the site. We were surprised to find that the only records we have for the site have come from Local Wildlife Site Surveys, which assess the quality of the site and focus on vascular plants, with some casual observations of other species noted too.

Bayer computer code: PRYCIS HOSTS Larvae of P. issikii make folded mines in the lower side of leaves of Tilia spp (preferred host). The native hosts in the Far East are, T cordata, T. amurensis, T. mandshurica, T. maximowicziana and other Tilia, but also Betula platyphylla (Ermolaev, 1977; Kozlov, 1991; Orlinskii et al., 1991b). In the West of Russia, Tilia cordata is the preferred host (and also where it is introduced in the East). P.issikii has not specifically been recorded on Tilia platyphyllas or the hybrid T europea, most widely oplanted in western Europe. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION EPPO region: Lithuania (recently introduced), Russia (South of the Far East; South and centre of the European part – introduced: cities of Voronezh, Samara, Ufa, Moscow and their vicinities), Ukraine (introduced). Asia: Korea, Russia (South of the Far East), Japan (Kumata et al., 1983; Kozlov, 1991; Orlinskii et al., 1991). EU: Absent. BIOLOGY The caterpillars of the first generation of P. issikii pupate in the second half of June; moths fly from the end of June till the middle of July. The second generation develops from the end of July till the end of August; moths fly from the middle of August till the beginning of September. Folded mines are located on the lower side of leaves.

Fomina The purpose. To carry out probes on revealing and specification of species composition of checkered moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) in conditions of botanical gardens and plantings of Kiev. Methods. Standard methods of faunistic research in entomology, population ecology, and protection of plants. Results. It is determined that 24 kinds of checkered moths are eating 54 kinds of plants which are widely used for gardening in Kiev. For the first time the following kinds are revealed: Phyllonorycter issikii, Phyllonorycter platani, and Phyllonorycter emberizaepennella. At calculation of Palii-Kovnatski indexes they specified that in city plantings the dominant phytophags are Cameraria ohridella (94,11%), Phyllonorycter populifoliella (86,37%) and Gracillaria syringella (59,14%). They consider that in formation of the secondary areal of invasion kinds of checkered moths the great value has an areal of spread of the host-plant. Environmental analysis is carried out of checkered moths of family Gracillariidae which is spread in cities of the Europe and which are absent in fauna of cities of Ukraine. That has important theoretical and practical value for ecology, entomology and protection of plants against hazardous checkered moths. Conclusions. All the probed kinds of checkered moths by their trophic specialization may be distributed into polyphages (6 kinds), oligophages (14 kinds) and monophages (3 kinds).

Many conditions in the urban habitats are modified compared to those in the rural ones, so the organisms present reactions to these changes. To determine to what extent the habitat type influences insects, we tested the differences in the pedunculate oak (Quercus robur L.) leaf-mining insect community between urban and rural habitats in Serbia. Lower species richness, abundance, and diversity were determined on trees in the urban environment. Due to the differences in the habitat types, many of the species disappeared, while most of the remaining species declined. The seasonal dynamics of species richness, abundance, and diversity differed between the habitat types. Both rural and urban populations started with low values in May. Subsequently, rural populations gained higher species richness, abundance, and diversity.
