  • The Biology and Distribution of California Hemileucinae (Saturniidae)
    Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 38(4), 1984,281-309 THE BIOLOGY AND DISTRIBUTION OF CALIFORNIA HEMILEUCINAE (SATURNIIDAE) PAUL M. TUSKES 7900 Cambridge 141G, Houston, Texas 77054 ABSTRACT. The distribution, biology, and larval host plants for the 14 species and subspecies of California Hemileucinae are discussed in detail. In addition, the immature stages of Hemileuca neumogeni and Coloradia velda are described for the first time. The relationships among the Hemileuca are examined with respect to six species groups, based on adult and larval characters, host plant relationships and pheromone interactions. The tricolor, eglanterina, and nevadensis groups are more distinctive than the electra, burnsi, or diana groups, but all are closely related. Species groups are used to exemplify evolutionary trends within this large but cohesive genus. The saturniid fauna of the western United States is dominated by moths of the tribe Hemileucinae. Three genera in this tribe commonly occur north of Mexico: Hemileuca, Coloradia, and Automeris. Al­ though no Automeris are native to California about 50% of the Hemi­ leuca and Coloradia species in the United States occur in the state. The absence of Automeris and other species from California is due to the state's effective isolation from southern Arizona and mainland Mex­ ico by harsh mountains, deserts, the Gulf of California, and climatic differences. The Hemileuca of northern Arizona, Nevada, and Utah are very similar to that of California, while those of Oregon, Washing­ ton, and Idaho represent subsets of the northern California fauna. The majority of the saturniid species in the United States have had little or no impact on man, but some Hemileucinae have been of eco­ nomic importance.

  • (Hemileuca Nuttalli) and GROUND MANTID (Litaneutria Minor) SEARCHES in the SOUTH OKANAGAN VALLEY, BRITISH COLUMBIA, 2009
    NUTTALL’S BUCKMOTH (Hemileuca nuttalli) AND GROUND MANTID (Litaneutria minor) SEARCHES IN THE SOUTH OKANAGAN VALLEY, BRITISH COLUMBIA, 2009 By Vicky Young and Dawn Marks, BC Conservation Corps BC Ministry of Environment Internal Working Report September 23, 2009 ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Nuttall’s Buckmoth (Hemileuca nuttalli) and Ground Mantid (Litaneutria minor) are two invertebrate species listed for inventory under the BC Conservation Framework (2009). The Nuttall’s Buckmoth is listed as a mid priority species on The COSEWIC Candidate List (COSEWIC 2009). The Ground Mantid may be recommended as a COSEWIC candidate (Rob Cannings, COSEWIC Arthropod subcommittee, pers. comm.). These species were included in a list of target species for the BC Conservation Corps grassland species inventory crew. The crew spent 4 days surveying antelope-brush habitats within the Southern Okanagan between August 24th and September 1st 2009. These searches did not result in any detection of either target species. This preliminary attempt to address the lack of data for these invertebrate species will help inform future inventory efforts. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Funding for this project was provided by the BC Ministry of Environment through the BC Conservation Corps and through the BC Conservation Framework. We appreciate administrative support from the BC Conservation Foundation (Barb Waters). Guidance and mentorship was provided by Orville Dyer, Wildlife Biologist with the BC Ministry of Environment. Training regarding moth behaviour and identification was provided by Dennis St. John. Rob Cannings, Curator of Entomology, Royal BC Museum, provided insect biodiversity, insect inventory, collection of voucher specimens and identification training. Jerry Mitchell and Aaron Reid, biologists with the BC Ministry of Environment, provided assistance with Wildlife Species Inventory database submissions.

  • New Apple Pest, Hedya Nubiferana (Haworth), Discovered in Ohio1
    BRIEF NOTE New Apple Pest, Hedya nubiferana (Haworth), Discovered in Ohio1 ROY W. RINGS, Department of Entomology, Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, The Ohio State University, Wooster, OH 44691 ABSTRACT. The green budworm, Hedya nubiferana (Haworth), was collected in Ohio for the first time in 1991- A total of five specimens was collected at three sites in Portage County, OH. The collection of the green budworm at these widespread localities in Portage County in such numbers indicates that this potential pest species is now well established in Ohio, at least in the northeastern part. The identification of this species was made by Dr. William E. Miller, Department of Entomology, University of Minnesota, St. Paul, MN. Further studies in unsprayed, abandoned orchards and arboretums are suggested to more accurately determine the geographical distribution of this new species in Ohio. OHIO J.

  • Barrowhill, Otterpool and East Stour River)
    Folkestone and Hythe Birds Tetrad Guide: TR13 D (Barrowhill, Otterpool and East Stour River) The tetrad TR13 D is an area of mostly farmland with several small waterways, of which the East Stour River is the most significant, and there are four small lakes (though none are publically-accessible), the most northerly of which is mostly covered with Phragmites. Other features of interest include a belt of trees running across the northern limit of Lympne Old Airfield (in the extreme south edge of the tetrad), part of Harringe Brooks Wood (which has no public access), the disused (Otterpool) quarry workings and the westernmost extent of Folkestone Racecourse and. The northern half of the tetrad is crossed by the major transport links of the M20 and the railway, whilst the old Ashford Road (A20), runs more or less diagonally across. Looking south-west towards Burnbrae from the railway Whilst there are no sites of particular ornithological significance within the area it is not without interest. A variety of farmland birds breed, including Kestrel, Stock Dove, Sky Lark, Chiffchaff, Blackcap, Lesser Whitethroat, Yellowhammer, and possibly Buzzard, Yellow Wagtail and Meadow Pipit. Two rapidly declining species, Turtle Dove and Spotted Flycatcher, also probably bred during the 2007-11 Bird Atlas. The Phragmites at the most northerly lake support breeding Reed Warbler and Reed Bunting. In winter Fieldfare and Redwing may be found in the fields, whilst the streams have attracted Little Egret, Snipe and, Grey Wagtail, with Siskin and occasionally Lesser Redpoll in the alders along the East Stour River. Corn Bunting may be present if winter stubble is left and Red Kite, Peregrine, Merlin and Waxwing have also occurred.

  • Towards Classical Biological Control of Leek Moth
    ____________________________________________________________________________ Ateyyat This project seeks to provide greater coherence for the biocontrol knowledge system for regulators and researchers; create an open access information source for biocontrol re- search of agricultural pests in California, which will stimulate greater international knowl- edge sharing about agricultural pests in Mediterranean climates; and facilitate the exchange of information through a cyberinfrastructure among government regulators, and biocontrol entomologists and practitioners. It seeks broader impacts through: the uploading of previ- ously unavailable data being made openly accessible; the stimulation of greater interaction between the biological control regulation, research, and practitioner community in selected Mediterranean regions; the provision of more coherent and useful information to enhance regulatory decisions by public agency scientists; a partnership with the IOBC to facilitate international data sharing; and progress toward the ultimate goal of increasing the viability of biocontrol as a reduced risk pest control strategy.
