Proceeding of the 9th Symposium of flora of Southeastern Serbia and Neighbouring Regions, Nis, 2007. The adaptive plasticity in relation to environmental conditions, which is manifested by character of correlation relationship between vascular plants as ovipositional and nutritive plants, and butterfly caterpillars, has been investigated. In this paper were specially analyzed polyphagian butterflies- if a nutritive plant of their caterpillars belongs to the same or to the different life forms, and what are ecological implications of this relations. The pattern was established by this analysis. Key words: living form, vascular plants, butterflies, Serbia ! !

  • Butterflies & Flowers of the Kackars
    Butterflies and Botany of the Kackars in Turkey Greenwings holiday report 14-22 July 2018 Led by Martin Warren, Yiannis Christofides and Yasemin Konuralp White-bordered Grayling © Alan Woodward Greenwings Wildlife Holidays Tel: 01473 254658 Web: www.greenwings.co.uk Email: [email protected] ©Greenwings 2018 Introduction This was the second year of a tour to see the wonderful array of butterflies and plants in the Kaçkar mountains of north-east Turkey. These rugged mountains rise steeply from Turkey’s Black Sea coast and are an extension of the Caucasus mountains which are considered by the World Wide Fund for Nature to be a global biodiversity hotspot. The Kaçkars are thought to be the richest area for butterflies in this range, a hotspot in a hotspot with over 160 resident species. The valley of the River Çoruh lies at the heart of the Kaçkar and the centre of the trip explored its upper reaches at altitudes of 1,300—2,300m. The area consists of steep-sided valleys with dry Mediterranean vegetation, typically with dense woodland and trees in the valley bottoms interspersed with small hay-meadows. In the upper reaches these merge into alpine meadows with wet flushes and few trees. The highest mountain in the range is Kaçkar Dağı with an elevation of 3,937 metres The tour was centred around the two charming little villages of Barhal and Olgunlar, the latter being at the fur- thest end of the valley that you can reach by car. The area is very remote and only accessed by a narrow road that winds its way up the valley providing extraordinary views that change with every turn.

Abstract. The number of dark stripes in forewing fringe is often used for distinguishing these two species. The calculated specificity of this feature is between only 85 and 94%, therefore unsuitable for discrimina- tion. The reliable marker is the shape of white spots on hind-wing underside. Keywords. Spialia orbifer, S. sertorius, identification, forewing fringe Author’s address. Gergely Péter | 2014 Csobánka, Hegyalja lépcső 4. | E-mail: [email protected] Summary. Spialia sertorius is a West-European, Atlantic species; its range extends to the East in Austria, Hungary, and Slovakia. Spialia orbifer is a south-eastern species, which is rather common in Hungary and the Balkans. The area of these two species overlaps in the above-mentioned countries. Since both species are variable, the field identification can be difficult, and therefore, reliable markers are needed to distinguish them. According to the Hungarian textbook by Gozmány (1968), the number of stripes (7 or 5–6) in the fringe of forewing upper side has been suggested as a reliable marker for differentiation.

  • Greek Island Odyssey Holiday Report 2013
    Greek Island Odyssey Holiday Report 2013 Day 1: Saturday 20th April As our plane came in to land at Rhodes airport the wildlife spotting began! We had a good view of a female Marsh Harrier and Little Egret over the nearby river. Then, on the drive to the hotel, we saw a Wood Sandpiper on the same river by the road bridge. Upon our arrival in the medieval old town Andy and Denise made a quick foray into the moat and town and found Starred Agamas, Oertzen’s Rock Lizards, a Dahl’s Whip Snake and Large Wall Brown butterflies. It was late evening by then and so we sat at a local taverna for our first traditional Greek mezedes meal and discussed plans for the week ahead over a civilized glass of wine. Day 2: Sunday 21st April After a hearty breakfast at the hotel we set off on our first Anatolian Worm Lizard full day of exploration. Our first stop was the archaeological park at Monte Smith. After parking the car and with lots of butterflies flying around us, it was hard to know just what to look at first. Andy diverted our attention, announcing that he had found an Anatolian Worm Lizard, a strange creature looking more like a worm than a lizard and which is found in Turkey and Greece. On Rhodes it is recorded only in the northern parts of the island. Lesser Fiery Copper We then moved on to watch the butterflies. The first two we identified were male and female Lesser Fiery Coppers, soon followed by Eastern Bath White, and Clouded yellow.

    BULGARIA Nick Greatorex-Davies. European Butterflies Group Contact ([email protected]) Local Contact Prof. Stoyan Beshkov. ([email protected]) National Museum of Natural History (NMNH), Sofia, Butterfly Conservation Europe Partner Bulgarian Academy of Sciences Stanislav Abadjiev compiled and collated butterfly records for the whole of Bulgaria and published a Local Recording Scheme distribution atlas in 2001 (see below). Records are still being gathered and can be sent to Stoyan Beshkov at NMNH, Sofia. Butterfly List See Butterflies of Bulgaria website (Details below) Introduction Bulgaria is situated in eastern Europe with its eastern border running along the Black Sea coast. It is separated from Romania for much of its northern border by the River Danube. It shares its western border with Serbia and Macedonia, and its southern border with Greece and Turkey. Bulgaria has a land area of almost 111,000 sq km (smaller than England but bigger than Scotland) and a declining human population of 7.15 million (as of 2015), 1.5 million of which live in the capital city, Sofia. It is very varied in both climate, topography and habitats. Substantial parts of the country are mountainous, particularly in the west, south-west and central ‘spine’ of the country and has the highest mountain in the Balkan Mountains (Musala peak in the Rila Mountains, 2925m) (Map 1). Almost 70% of the land area is above 200m and over 27% above 600m. About 40% of the country is forested and this is likely to increase through natural regeneration due to the abandonment of agricultural land. Following nearly 500 years under the rule of the Ottoman Empire, Bulgaria was independent for just a few years from 1908 before coming under the domination of the soviet communist regime in 1946.

This study reports about flying time, habi­ tats and distribution of Spialia sertorius H FFM G G . and Sp. orbifer HBN. according to recent collections in Hungary. The author presents a hypo­ thetical phylogenetic and chorologic scheme about the glacial and post­ glacial spreading of the populations of the superspecies Spialia sertorius s.l. in this area. Hinsichtlich der Erforschung der Taxonomie und Zoogeografie der Superspecies Spialia sertorius HFFMGG. (DE JONG 1974) stellt das Karpatenbecken ein äußerst wichtiges Gebiet dar. Hier sind nämlich jene Biotope zu finden, in denen sowohl die Populationen von Spialia (sertorius) sertorius als auch jene von Sp. (sertorius) o rb ife r HBN. sympatrisch Vorkommen. Aufgrund der Ergebnisse der in den letzten Jahren durchgeführten Forschungen kann man die Schlüsse von LORKOVlC (1973), DE JONG (1974) und FAZEKAS (1978) als eindeutig be­ wiesen betrachten, wonach sertorius und orbifer zwei selbständige Arten dar­ stellen (Details siehe in den Arbeiten der erwähnten Autoren).

  • Diversity and Ecology of Butterflies and Moths in Wadi Gaza, Gaza Strip, Palestine
    International Journal of Scientific and Research Publications, Volume 5, Issue 11, November 2015 707 ISSN 2250-3153 Diversity and Ecology of Butterflies and Moths in Wadi Gaza, Gaza strip, Palestine Zuhair .W. Dardona*, Ayman .W. Dardona**, Mohammed.A.Albayoumi * * Msc Microbiology ** Msc Limnology Abstract- Butterflies and moths were studied in regions of Wadi Gaza, extending from Salahe El-deen bridge west to Wadi Abo- Qatron near Wadi Gaza village to the east. The research is based on studying the diversity of butterflies and moths in terms of taxa diversity, Genera compositions, and family abundance. In terms of family abundance, the survey showed that all recorded butterflies are belonging to five main families (Pieridae, Hesperiidae, Lycaenidae, Nymphalidae, Papilionidae). The recorded moths are also belonging to five families (Arctiidae, Crambidae, Geometridae, Noctuidae, Sphingidae). In terms of species and genera compositions and diversity, the survey revealed that butterflies are more abundant concerning diversity and richness than moths. The five families of butterflies are consisting of (19 genera) and (25 species) while the five families of moths are consisting of only (10 genera) and (11species).The butterflies represented (69 %) of recorded species in the area of study while the moths were represented in (31 %) of the findings. The most abundant family of butterflies is Pieridae with (36%) of all recorded butterflies, followed by Lycaenidae (32%). As for moths, the abundant families are Noctuidae, Geometridae, and Crambidae were each family was represented by (3 species), and they form (82%) of recorded moths. In this study all genera, in both moths and butterflies are represented only by one specie except six genera of butterflies and one genus of moths as each one is represented with two species, these six genera of butterflies are zizeeria,Vanessa, Colias, Pieris, Carcharodus, and Pointa and that genues of moths is Stemorrhages.

  • A Catalogue of Butterflies (Lepidoptera, Rhopalocera) of Azerbaijan
    Acta Biologica Sibirica, 2019, 5(3), 62-117, doi: https://doi.org/10.14258/abs.v5.i3.6433 RESEARCH ARTICLE A catalogue of butterflies (Lepidoptera, Rhopalocera) of Azerbaijan N.Y. Snegovaya, V.A. Petrov Zoological Institute National Academy of Science of Azerbaijan A. Abbaszade St. 1128, Baky, Azerbaijan, E-mail: [email protected] National Museum of Georgia Rustaveli Ave. 3, Tbilisi, Georgia, E-mail: [email protected] An annotated list of butterflies from Azerbaijan, containing 280 species, is presented. The classification and nomenclature in this work are accepted according to the key of Korb & Bolshakov (2016). The full list of species composition of butterflies of Azerbaijan numbering 280 species for today is presented for the first time, and it was supplemented by new materials collected by the first author from 2012 to 2019. We came up with the list of the total species composition of butterflies in Azerbaijan, which currently includes 280 species from 6 families (Hesperiidae - 37, Papilionidae - 10, Pieridae - 28, Lycaenidae - 100, Riodinidae - 1, Nimphalidae - 104) for today was compiled. We record Papilio demoleus demoleus Linnaeus, 1758 as a new species for the fauna of the Caucasus. Our results will help to continue biodiversity study and expand the information on the distribution of the butterflies (Papilionoformes) in Azerbaijan and the Caucasus. Key words: butterflies; Azerbaijan; catalogue; Lepidoptera Rhopalocera or butterflies are one of the popular groups of insects, which are an important component of terrestrial biocenoses. The fauna of Lepidoptera of Azerbaijan has attracted the attention of lepidopterists for a long time. The first butterfly researcher in Azerbaijan was E.Menetries (Menetries, 1832, 1855, 1859).
