Data to knowledge of micro- moths from Dombóvár (SW Hungary) (Lepidoptera). Abstract A list of 436 species of micro-moth recorded from the area around Dombóvár-Gunaras (Tolna County, SW Hungary) is presented. Most of the material is from light traps, and several rarities have been found personally by Arnold Schreurs and Imre Fazekas between 1985 and 2009. Faunistic and biological notes on 35 species are given. Structure of genitalia and morphological characteristics of wings are illustrated with figures. Specimens are deposited in the private collections of Arnold Schreurs (NL), Willy Biesenbaum (D) and in the collection of Regiograf Institute (H). One species, Coleophora alnifoliae Barasch, 1934 is new to the fauna of Hungary. 14 species of Microlepidoptera are recorded as new to the fauna of the Transdanubian Hills: Borkhausenia fuscescens (Haworth, 1828) (Oecophoridae), Coleophora pseudorepentis Toll, 1960 (Coleophoridae), C. artemisicolella Bruand, 1855 (Coleophoridae), C. onobrychiella Zeller, 1849 (Coleophoridae), Sorhagenia lophyrella (Douglas, 1846) (Cosmopterigidae), Aristotelia subdecurtella (Stainton, 1858) (Gelechiidae), Caryocolum blandulella (Tutt, 1887) (Gelechiidae), Gynnidomorpha alismana (Ragonot, 1883) (Tortricidae), Apotomis betuletana (Haworth, 1811) (Tortricidae), Eucosma flavispecula Kuznetzov, 1964 (Tortricidae), Pammene regiana regiana (Zeller, 1849) (Tortricidae), P. aurita Razowski, 1992 (Tortricidae), Phycitodes inquinatella exustella (Ragonot, 1888) (Pyralidae) and Catoptria permutatella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1848) (Crambidae). Keywords – Microlepidoptera, faunistic, new distribution data, biology, Hungary. Introduction It would be hard to find another wonderful land such as the Tolna County, where con- tinental and submediterranean characteristics are unified in a harmony. According to PA P (2007) Tolna is one of the most varied and controversial counties in Hungary. Evaluations of the country are highly contrastive. The duality of poverty and economic power, back- wardness and a rich cultural heritage, easily accessible, pleasant settlements as well as increasing migration, availability of resources and favourable local conditions versus a lack of their utilisation are all characteristic features of Tolna. Dombóvár, the second largest town in Tolna County, is 29 km from Kaposvár and 45 km from Pécs on the boundaries of three counties, Tolna, Somogy and Baranya. Gunaras, a town which is famous for its spa, is located 5 km from Dombóvár; the thermal waters 274 NATURA SOMOGY I ENS I S were discovered here in the 1960’s, and the first bathing facilities were built in the 1980’s. Nowadays it is not only a comfortable spa, but also the only rehabilitation centre in the region. The water contains fluoride and alkali-hydrogen-carbonic, thus it is most- ly recommended for those who have some kind of motor disease, stomach or enteric problems or some illness of the mouth, heart or blood-system. Scientists from Hungary and other European countries noticed the special biogeo- graphical features of the Tolna County from as early as the 19th century. In the 20th century, famous botanists and zoologists travelled through the region. A series of small- er and larger zoological publications were published in Hungarian, Austrian and German scientific reviews. As a result, the name of Tolna County became generally known in Europe. However, there was no systematic research undertaken in this geographical area until now. The history of lepidopterological investigation of the Tolna County goes back to the collecting activity of PI LL I CH (1914) of Simontornya. In accordance with the usual practice of that period, he unfortunately failed to label his material, and the nomenclature he applied gave rise to several misinterpretations. More recently, additional data on micro-moths and butterflies of the area have appeared in other short publications (FARKAS 1992; FAZEKAS 1992, 2001b, 2008b, PI LL I CH 1914). This study presents a list of 436 Microlepidoptera species recorded from the area around Dombóvár–Gunaras (SW Hungary, Tolna County; see Fig. 1.). The account is based on material collected mainly by Arnold Schreurs (NL-Kerkade) and Willy Biesenbaum (D-Velbert-Langenberg), which is deposited in Regiograf Institute, H-Komló, and on the above-mentioned literature sources. The bulk of the information available is the result of research by Arnold Schreurs. The arrangement of the species is based on the classification still followed in Hungarian Microlepidoptera literature (FAZEKAS 2002, PASTORÁL I S 2010). Significant species from the territory from a faunistic point of view Abbreviation in the text: HNHM= Hungarian Natural History Museum (Budapest), JPM= Janus Pannonius Museum (Pécs).

Wenzel, Advisor Dr. Daniel Herms Dr. Hans Klompen _________________________________ Dr. Steven C. Passoa Advisor Graduate Program in Entomology ABSTRACT The phylogenetics, systematics, taxonomy, and biology of Gelechioidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera) are investigated. This superfamily is probably the second largest in all of Lepidoptera, and it remains one of the least well known. Taxonomy of Gelechioidea has been unstable historically, and definitions vary at the family and subfamily levels. In Chapters Two and Three, I review the taxonomy of Gelechioidea and characters that have been important, with attention to what characters or terms were used by different authors. I revise the coding of characters that are already in the literature, and provide new data as well. Chapter Four provides the first phylogenetic analysis of Gelechioidea to include molecular data. I combine novel DNA sequence data from Cytochrome oxidase I and II with morphological matrices for exemplar species. The results challenge current concepts of Gelechioidea, suggesting that traditional morphological characters that have united taxa may not be homologous structures and are in need of further investigation. Resolution of this problem will require more detailed analysis and more thorough characterization of certain lineages. To begin this task, I conduct in Chapter Five an in- depth study of morphological evolution, host-plant selection, and geographical distribution of a medium-sized genus Depressaria Haworth (Depressariinae), larvae of ii which generally feed on plants in the families Asteraceae and Apiaceae.

Anania coronata (Hufnagel), a Holarctic species of pyraustine crambid moth, has long been treated as having two geographically separated subspecies – the nominotypical Anania coronata in the Palaearctic Region and Anania coronata tertialis (Guenee)´ in the Nearctic Region. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analysis of mitochondrial DNA barcodes both recover four well-supported, reciprocally monophyletic groups within Anania coronata. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of genital structures reveal diagnostic differences that correspond to the four barcode lineages. On the basis of both molecular and morphological evidence, we conclude that Anania coronata is actually a complex of four species.
  • The Distribution and Habitat Preferences of Bats in a Temperate Urban Landscape

    The Distribution and Habitat Preferences of Bats in a Temperate Urban Landscape

    The distribution and habitat preferences of bats in a temperate urban landscape Paul Lintott July 2015 Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Biological & Environmental Sciences, School of Natural Sciences The University of Stirling Declaration I hereby declare that this thesis has been composed by myself and that it embodies the results of my own research. Where appropriate, I have acknowledged the nature and extent of work carried out in collaboration with others. ………………………………………………………………………….. Paul Lintott Summary Urbanisation is a key driver in the loss, fragmentation and modification of natural habitats resulting in the global loss of biodiversity. As the human population, and consequently the rate of urbanisation, continues to increase exponentially it is important to understand how to sustain and enhance biodiversity within the built environment. Cities comprise a complex assortment of habitat types yet relatively little is known of how its composition and spatial configuration can influence species presence or foraging activities. It is therefore necessary to examine habitat use and biodiversity patterns at multiple spatial scales to fully understand how species are responding to the urban matrix. There are few other orders of animals that are as strongly associated with people as bats (Chiroptera); for some bat species human habitations provide roosts and adaptations of the environment provide food sources. However bat species richness generally declines with increasing urbanisation indicating that many species are not able to persist in highly urbanised areas. In this thesis, I show that the behaviour, habitat preferences, and distribution of bats are strongly influenced by the built environment at both a local and landscape scale.

Olszak (453 m) in the Opawskie Mts. (Eastern Sudety Mts., SW Poland) is planned to be protected as an entomological-and-phytocenotic reserve. The main objectives of the protection are acidophilous oak forest and maple-linden slope forest being habitats of many rare species of moths and lacewings known from not numerous localities in Poland. Out of them, the populations of two unique in native lepidopteran fauna, saproxylic and phytosaprophagous species: Alabonia staintoniella (ZELL.) and Zanclognatha zelleralis (WCK.), are preserved here at their northernmost locality in Europe.

    Damage Levels from Arthropod Herbivores on Lonicera Maackii Suggest Enemy Release in Its Introduced Range

    Coevolutionary Diversification of Leafflower Moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae: Epicephala) and Leafflower Trees (Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus sensu lato [Glochidion]) in Southeastern Polynesia By David Howard Hembry A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Rosemary Gillespie, Chair Professor Bruce Baldwin Professor Patrick O’Grady Spring 2012 1 2 Abstract Coevolution between phylogenetically distant, yet ecologically intimate taxa is widely invoked as a major process generating and organizing biodiversity on earth. Yet for many putatively coevolving clades we lack knowledge both of their evolutionary history of diversification, and the manner in which they organize themselves into patterns of interaction. This is especially true for mutualistic associations, despite the fact that mutualisms have served as models for much coevolutionary research. In this dissertation, I examine the codiversification of an obligate, reciprocally specialized pollination mutualism between leafflower moths (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae: Epicephala) and leafflower trees (Phyllanthaceae: Phyllanthus sensu lato [Glochidion]) on the oceanic islands of southeastern Polynesia. Leafflower moths are the sole known pollinators of five clades of leafflowers (in the genus Phyllanthus s. l., including the genera Glochidion and Breynia), and thus this interaction is considered to be obligate. Female moths actively transfer pollen from male flowers to female flowers, using a haired proboscis to transfer pollen into the recessed stigmatic surface at the end of the fused stylar column. The moths then oviposit into the flowers’ ovaries, and the larva which hatches consumes a subset, but not all, of the developing fruit’s seed set.
