Leaf Miner Moth Survey If Not Now When Community Woodland October 2013 Leaf miner moth survey if not now when community woodland October 2013 Completed by Kevin and Joan Saul Summary Most are common species, with one or two classed as “local”. The most interesting is the nationally scarce Phyllonorycter dubitella. This was one that was reared from sallow leaves (the mine can be very similar to that of the common species that feeds on the same tree), and I hadn’t realised at the time just how uncommon the species was in Norfolk. In those terms, it’s probably the “best” moth we’ve recorded at Suffield so far! 1 Ectoedemia heringi (White- + K. & Mine Local spot Pigmy) J.

  • Moths and Management of a Grassland Reserve: Regular Mowing and Temporary Abandonment Support Different Species
    Biologia 67/5: 973—987, 2012 Section Zoology DOI: 10.2478/s11756-012-0095-9 Moths and management of a grassland reserve: regular mowing and temporary abandonment support different species Jan Šumpich1,2 &MartinKonvička1,3* 1Biological Centre CAS, Institute of Entomology, Branišovská 31,CZ-37005 České Budějovice, Czech Republic; e-mail: [email protected] 2Česká Bělá 212,CZ-58261 Česká Bělá, Czech Republic 3Faculty of Sciences, University South Bohemia, Branišovská 31,CZ-37005 České Budějovice, Czech Republic Abstract: Although reserves of temperate seminatural grassland require management interventions to prevent succesional change, each intervention affects the populations of sensitive organisms, including insects. Therefore, it appears as a wise bet-hedging strategy to manage reserves in diverse and patchy manners. Using portable light traps, we surveyed the effects of two contrasting management options, mowing and temporary abandonment, applied in a humid grassland reserve in a submountain area of the Czech Republic. Besides of Macrolepidoptera, we also surveyed Microlepidoptera, small moths rarely considered in community studies. Numbers of individiuals and species were similar in the two treatments, but ordionation analyses showed that catches originating from these two treatments differed in species composition, management alone explaining ca 30 per cent of variation both for all moths and if split to Marcolepidoptera and Microlepidoptera. Whereas a majority of macrolepidopteran humid grassland specialists preferred unmown sections or displayed no association with management, microlepidopteran humid grassland specialists contained equal representation of species inclining towards mown and unmown sections. We thus revealed that even mown section may host valuable species; an observation which would not have been detected had we considered Macrolepidoptera only.

  • Tarset and Greystead Biological Records
    Tarset and Greystead Biological Records published by the Tarset Archive Group 2015 Foreword Tarset Archive Group is delighted to be able to present this consolidation of biological records held, for easy reference by anyone interested in our part of Northumberland. It is a parallel publication to the Archaeological and Historical Sites Atlas we first published in 2006, and the more recent Gazeteer which both augments the Atlas and catalogues each site in greater detail. Both sets of data are also being mapped onto GIS. We would like to thank everyone who has helped with and supported this project - in particular Neville Geddes, Planning and Environment manager, North England Forestry Commission, for his invaluable advice and generous guidance with the GIS mapping, as well as for giving us information about the archaeological sites in the forested areas for our Atlas revisions; Northumberland National Park and Tarset 2050 CIC for their all-important funding support, and of course Bill Burlton, who after years of sharing his expertise on our wildflower and tree projects and validating our work, agreed to take this commission and pull everything together, obtaining the use of ERIC’s data from which to select the records relevant to Tarset and Greystead. Even as we write we are aware that new records are being collected and sites confirmed, and that it is in the nature of these publications that they are out of date by the time you read them. But there is also value in taking snapshots of what is known at a particular point in time, without which we have no way of measuring change or recognising the hugely rich biodiversity of where we are fortunate enough to live.

  • Wolbachia in Two Insect Host–Parasitoid Communities
    Molecular Ecology (1998) 7, 1457Ð1465 Wolbachia in two insect hostÐparasitoid communities S. A. WEST,* J. M. COOK,* J. H. WERRENà and H. C. J. GODFRAY* *Department of Biology & NERC Centre for Population Biology, Imperial College at Silwood Park, Ascot, Berkshire SLY 7PY, UK, Institute of Cell, Animal and Population Biology, University of Edinburgh, KingÕs Buildings, West Mains Road, Edinburgh, EH9 3JT, UK, àDepartment of Biology, University of Rochester, Rochester, New York 14627, USA. Abstract Wolbachia form a group of intracellular bacteria that alter reproduction in their arthropod hosts. Two major phylogenetic subdivisions (A and B) of Wolbachia occur. Using a polymerase chain reaction assay we surveyed for the A and B group Wolbachia in 82 insect species from two temperate hostÐparasitoid communities (food webs) and a general collection of Lepidoptera caught at a light trap. One hostÐparasitoid community was based around leaf-mining Lepidoptera, and the other around Aphids. We found that: (i) 22.0% of insects sampled were infected with Wolbachia; and (ii) the prevalence and type (A or B) of Wolbachia infection differed significantly between communities and taxo- nomic groups. We obtained DNA sequences from the ftsZ gene for the group B Wolbachia found in six leaf-mining species and one of their parasitoids, as well as four of the Lepidoptera caught by a light trap. Taken together, the results of our survey and phylo- genetic analyses of the sequence data suggest that hostÐparasitoid transfer of Wolbachia is not the major route through which the species we have examined become infected. In addition, the Wolbachia strains observed in five leaf-mining species from the same genus were not closely related, indicating that transfer between species has not occurred due to a shared feeding niche or cospeciation.

  • Leaf-Mining Insects and Their Parasitoids in Relation to Plant Succession
    Leaf-mining Insects and their Parasitoids in relation to Plant Succession by Hugh Charles Jonathan Godfray A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London and for the Diploma of Membership of Imperial College. Department of Pure and Applied Biology Imperial College at Silwood Park Silwood Park Ascot Berkshire SL5 7PY November 1982 Abstract In this project, the changes in the community of leaf-miners and their hymenopterous parasites were studied in relation to plant succession. Leaf-miners are insects that spend at least part of their larval existence feeding internally within the leaf. The leaf-miners attacking plants over a specific successional sequence at Silwood Park, Berkshire, U.K. were studied, and the changes in taxonomic composition, host specialization, phenology and absolute abundance were examined in the light of recent theories of plant/insect-herbivore interactions. Similar comparisons were made between the leaf-miners attacking mature and seedling birch. The factors influencing the number of species of miner found on a particular type of plant were investigated by a multiple regression analysis of the leaf-miners of British trees and plant properties such as geographical distribution, taxonomic relatedness to other plants and plant size. The results are compared with similar studies on other groups and a less rigorous treatment of herbaceous plants. A large number of hymenopterous parasites were reared from dipterous leaf-mines on early successional plants. The parasite community structure is compared with the work of R.R.Askew and his associates on the parasites of tree leaf-miners. The Appendices include a key to British birch leaf-miners and notes on the taxonomy and host range of the reared parasites.

  • Isle of Wight Wildlife Recording Challenge 2020
    Isle of Wight Wildlife Recording Challenge 2020 Here is the complete list of flora and fauna recorded during my self-set wildlife recording challenge. My aim was to see 2020 species on the Isle of Wight during the year and despite the lockdown it was a success with 2211 species recorded and two where two subspecies were recorded. Ten aggregate taxa were included where identification to species was not possible. The list includes naturalised non-native species, accidentally introduced species, a few free-living escapes, feral species and one deliberate introduction. More than 1850 species were photographed. A number of species on the list had not been recorded previously on the Isle of Wight. These new county records are highlighted in pink. Several more, potentially new species that are still to be checked, are highlighted in orange. Blue text indicates species I hadn’t seen before. Species are listed by taxonomic group with the date and location of the first record of the year. Some were recorded on many occasions throughout the year. I am immensely grateful for the help and support I received throughout the year. Keeping me up to date with news, specimens, moth nights, tips on where to look for plants, forays and particularly help with plant identification. Hopefully there aren’t any mistakes but if there are, they are entirely my own.

  • The Smaller Moths of Staffordshire
    The Smaller Moths of Staffordshire By R.G.Warren Staffordshire Biological Recording Scheme Publication No. 13 1988 ISBN 0 905080 77 7 ISSN 0309 2100 Preface It is 25 years since Richard Warren produced his Smaller Moths of Staffordshire and it is now long out-of-print. It is a monumental work whose small size belies the work involved in its production. Richard was "into" micros at a time few others were. His knowledge of the micros of the county was encyclopaedic which is remarkable when you consider that he did not drive and his main source of identification of the micros was Meyrick's Revised Handbook of British Lepidoptera which, as those of you familiar with it will know, contains no illustrations save a few showing wing venation! Later there was the 2 volume British Tortricoid Moths and the first volumes of the Handbook of Moths of Great Britain and Ireland but these still covered only a small part of the micro-lepidoptera. He made frequent visits to the British Museum where he would consult those legends of Lepidoptera; Aggasiz, Bradley, Heath, Pelham-Clinton, Tremewan and the like. Richard could not have foreseen the rapid growth in interest in Lepidoptera and particularly the sudden availability of identification literature, the on-line sources and digital photography, all of which have contributed to an interest in the Micro-lepidoptera. I thought it appropriate to make this work available as an historical reference and to work towards updating it over the coming year. Please note, however, that it retains the nomenclature that was extant at the time of its publication.
