Bumble Bee Clearwing Moths
Colorado Insects of Interest “Bumble Bee Clearwing” Moths Scientific Names: Hemaris thysbe (F.) (hummingbird clearwing), Hemaris diffinis (Boisduval) (snowberry clearwing), Hemaris thetis (Boisduval) (Rocky Mountain clearwing), Amphion floridensis (Nessus sphinx) Figure 1. Hemaris thysbe, the hummingbird clearwing. Photograph courtesy of David Order: Lepidoptera (Butterflies, Moths, and Cappaert. Skippers) Family: Sphingidae (Sphinx Moths, Hawk Moths, Hornworms) Identification and Descriptive Features: Adults of these insects are moderately large moths that have some superficial resemblance to bumble bees. They most often attract attention when they are seen hovering at flowers in late spring and early summer. It can be difficult to distinguish the three “bumble bee clearwing” moths that occur in Colorado, particularly when they are actively moving about plants. The three species are approximately the same size, with wingspans that range between 3.2 to 5.5cm. The hummingbird clearwing is the largest and distinguished by having yellow legs, an Figure 2. Amphion floridensis, the Nessus olive/olive yellow thorax and dark abdomen with sphinx. small patches. The edges of the wings have a thick bordering edge of reddish brown. The snowberry clearwing has black legs, a black band that runs through the eye and along the thorax, a golden/olive golden thorax and a brown or black abdomen with 1-2 yellow bands. The head and thorax of the Rocky Mountain clearwing is brownish olive or olive green and the abdomen black or olive green above, with yellow underside. Although the caterpillar stage of all the clearwing sphinx moths feed on foliage of various shrubs and trees, damage is minimal, none are considered pest species. -

Phylogeny and Phylogenetic Taxonomy of Dipsacales, with Special Reference to Sinadoxa and Tetradoxa (Adoxaceae)
PHYLOGENY AND PHYLOGENETIC TAXONOMY OF DIPSACALES, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO SINADOXA AND TETRADOXA (ADOXACEAE) MICHAEL J. DONOGHUE,1 TORSTEN ERIKSSON,2 PATRICK A. REEVES,3 AND RICHARD G. OLMSTEAD 3 Abstract. To further clarify phylogenetic relationships within Dipsacales,we analyzed new and previously pub- lished rbcL sequences, alone and in combination with morphological data. We also examined relationships within Adoxaceae using rbcL and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. We conclude from these analyses that Dipsacales comprise two major lineages:Adoxaceae and Caprifoliaceae (sensu Judd et al.,1994), which both contain elements of traditional Caprifoliaceae.Within Adoxaceae, the following relation- ships are strongly supported: (Viburnum (Sambucus (Sinadoxa (Tetradoxa, Adoxa)))). Combined analyses of C ap ri foliaceae yield the fo l l ow i n g : ( C ap ri folieae (Diervilleae (Linnaeeae (Morinaceae (Dipsacaceae (Triplostegia,Valerianaceae)))))). On the basis of these results we provide phylogenetic definitions for the names of several major clades. Within Adoxaceae, Adoxina refers to the clade including Sinadoxa, Tetradoxa, and Adoxa.This lineage is marked by herbaceous habit, reduction in the number of perianth parts,nectaries of mul- ticellular hairs on the perianth,and bifid stamens. The clade including Morinaceae,Valerianaceae, Triplostegia, and Dipsacaceae is here named Valerina. Probable synapomorphies include herbaceousness,presence of an epi- calyx (lost or modified in Valerianaceae), reduced endosperm,and distinctive chemistry, including production of monoterpenoids. The clade containing Valerina plus Linnaeeae we name Linnina. This lineage is distinguished by reduction to four (or fewer) stamens, by abortion of two of the three carpels,and possibly by supernumerary inflorescences bracts. Keywords: Adoxaceae, Caprifoliaceae, Dipsacales, ITS, morphological characters, phylogeny, phylogenetic taxonomy, phylogenetic nomenclature, rbcL, Sinadoxa, Tetradoxa.
