A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

  • Rare Native Animals of RI
    RARE NATIVE ANIMALS OF RHODE ISLAND Revised: March, 2006 ABOUT THIS LIST The list is divided by vertebrates and invertebrates and is arranged taxonomically according to the recognized authority cited before each group. Appropriate synonomy is included where names have changed since publication of the cited authority. The Natural Heritage Program's Rare Native Plants of Rhode Island includes an estimate of the number of "extant populations" for each listed plant species, a figure which has been helpful in assessing the health of each species. Because animals are mobile, some exhibiting annual long-distance migrations, it is not possible to derive a population index that can be applied to all animal groups. The status assigned to each species (see definitions below) provides some indication of its range, relative abundance, and vulnerability to decline. More specific and pertinent data is available from the Natural Heritage Program, the Rhode Island Endangered Species Program, and the Rhode Island Natural History Survey. STATUS. The status of each species is designated by letter codes as defined: (FE) Federally Endangered (7 species currently listed) (FT) Federally Threatened (2 species currently listed) (SE) State Endangered Native species in imminent danger of extirpation from Rhode Island. These taxa may meet one or more of the following criteria: 1. Formerly considered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for Federal listing as endangered or threatened. 2. Known from an estimated 1-2 total populations in the state. 3. Apparently globally rare or threatened; estimated at 100 or fewer populations range-wide. Animals listed as State Endangered are protected under the provisions of the Rhode Island State Endangered Species Act, Title 20 of the General Laws of the State of Rhode Island.

  • Insect Survey of Four Longleaf Pine Preserves
    A SURVEY OF THE MOTHS, BUTTERFLIES, AND GRASSHOPPERS OF FOUR NATURE CONSERVANCY PRESERVES IN SOUTHEASTERN NORTH CAROLINA Stephen P. Hall and Dale F. Schweitzer November 15, 1993 ABSTRACT Moths, butterflies, and grasshoppers were surveyed within four longleaf pine preserves owned by the North Carolina Nature Conservancy during the growing season of 1991 and 1992. Over 7,000 specimens (either collected or seen in the field) were identified, representing 512 different species and 28 families. Forty-one of these we consider to be distinctive of the two fire- maintained communities principally under investigation, the longleaf pine savannas and flatwoods. An additional 14 species we consider distinctive of the pocosins that occur in close association with the savannas and flatwoods. Twenty nine species appear to be rare enough to be included on the list of elements monitored by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (eight others in this category have been reported from one of these sites, the Green Swamp, but were not observed in this study). Two of the moths collected, Spartiniphaga carterae and Agrotis buchholzi, are currently candidates for federal listing as Threatened or Endangered species. Another species, Hemipachnobia s. subporphyrea, appears to be endemic to North Carolina and should also be considered for federal candidate status. With few exceptions, even the species that seem to be most closely associated with savannas and flatwoods show few direct defenses against fire, the primary force responsible for maintaining these communities. Instead, the majority of these insects probably survive within this region due to their ability to rapidly re-colonize recently burned areas from small, well-dispersed refugia.

  • Larval Protein Quality of Six Species of Lepidoptera (Saturniidaeo Sphingidae, Noctuidae)
    Larval Protein Quality of Six Species of Lepidoptera (Saturniidaeo Sphingidae, Noctuidae) STEPHEN V. LANDRY,I GENE R. DEFOLIART,IANP MILTON L. SUNDE, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin 53706 J. Econ. Entomol. 79; 600-604 (I98€) ABSTRACT Six lepidopteran species representing three families were evaluated for their potential use as protein supplements for poultry. Proximate and amino acid analyses were conducted on larval powders of each species. Larvae ranged from 49.4 to 58.1% crude protein on a dry-weight basis. Amino acid analysis indicated deficiencies in arginine, me- thionine, cysteine, and possibly lysine, when larvae are used in chick rations. In a chick- feeding trial with three of the species, however, these deffciencies were not substantiated: the average weight gained by chicks fed the lepidopteran-supplemented dlet did not differ significantly from that of.chicks fed a conventional corn/soybean control diet.

  • Largest Species, Citheronia Splendens Sinaloensis (Hoffmann) and Ea­ Cles Oslari Rothschild, Is Poorly Known
    Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 40(4), 1986, 264- 270 BIOLOGY AND IMMATURE STAGES OF CITHERONIA SPLENDENS SINALOENSIS AND EACLES OSLARI IN ARIZONA (SATURNIIDAE) PAUL M. TUSKES 7900 Cambridge IllD, Houston, Texas 77054 ABSTRACT. Citheronia splendens sinaloensis and Eacles oslari occur in Cochise, Pima, and Santa Cruz counties in southern Arizona. Both species have one generation per year. The flight season of E. oslari extends from early June to mid-August, and the larval host plants include Quercus species. The flight season of C. splendens extends from July to mid-August, and the larval host plants include wild cotton, manzanita, and New Mexico evergreen sumac. The immature stages are described for the first time. The citheroniine fauna of Arizona is unique in that all seven species are primarily of Mexican origin (Tuskes 1985). The biology of the two largest species, Citheronia splendens sinaloensis (Hoffmann) and Ea­ cles oslari Rothschild, is poorly known. Ferguson (1971) illustrated the adults, summarized existing information, and indicated that their im­ mature stages were undescribed. The purpose of this paper is to de­ scribe the immature stages of both species and to present additional biological and distributional information. Citheronia splendens sinaloensis (Figs. 1-4) Citheronia splendens sinaloensis is the only member of the genus presently known to occur in Arizona. Citheronia mexicana G. & R. occurs just south of Arizona, in Sonora, Mexico. Although reported from Arizona before the turn of the century, there are no recent United States records. Citheronia regalis (F.) and C. sepulcralis (Druce) are common in the eastern or central United States but do not occur farther west than central Texas.
