  • Notes on the Systematic Position of Sinobirma Malaisei
    ©Entomologischer Verein Apollo e.V. Frankfurt am Main; download unter www.zobodat.at 3 6 9 Notes on the systematic position of Sinobirma malaisei (Bryk 1944) and the genera Tagoropsis, Maltagorea, and Pseudantheraea (Lepidoptera, Saturniidae: Saturniinae, Pseudapheliini) by Wolfgang A. NASSiGd) and Rolf G. O b e r p r ie l e r Abstract: The genus Sinobirma Bryk 1944 (stat. nov. as a genus), which was de­ scribed as a subgenus of the Australian genus Opodiphthera Wallengren 1859 (Saturniinae, Saturniini), is not at all closely related to the Australasian complex of Saturniidae. In contrast, it is a member of the African group of genera related to Tagoropsis Felder 1874 (Saturniinae, Pseudapheliini), as evidenced by the imaginal habitus and the structure of the male genitalia. There is evidence that Sinobirma malaisei (Bryk 1944) comb, nov., the sole species in the genus, known only from the type locality in Yunnan, may be closely related to some species of Maltagorea Bouyer 1993 from Madagascar. Thus, it seems possible that Malta­ gorea is a paraphyletic assembly rather than a monophyletic genus. Possible rela­ tionships in the group of genera are discussed. Anmerkungen zur systematischen Stellung vonSinobirma malaisei (B r y k 1944) und den GattungenTagoropsis, Maltagorea und Pseudantheraea (Lepidoptera, Saturniidae: Saturniinae, Pseudapheliini) Zusammenfassung: Sinobirma Bryk 1944, als Untergattung der australischen Gattung Opodiphthera Wallengren 1859 beschrieben, wird als eine separate Gat­ tung (stat. nov.) erkannt, die keine nähere Verwandtschaft zu den australisch-neu- guineanischen Arten rund um Opodiphthera (Saturniinae, Saturniini) aufweist. Statt dessen verweisen Imaginalhabitus und männliche Genitalmorphologie sie zu der af­ rikanischen Gattungsgruppe um Tagoropsis Felder 1974 (Saturniinae, Pseudaphe­ liini).

    insects Article Adhesion Performance in the Eggs of the Philippine Leaf Insect Phyllium philippinicum (Phasmatodea: Phylliidae) Thies H. Büscher * , Elise Quigley and Stanislav N. Gorb Department of Functional Morphology and Biomechanics, Institute of Zoology, Kiel University, Am Botanischen Garten 9, 24118 Kiel, Germany; [email protected] (E.Q.); [email protected] (S.N.G.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 12 June 2020; Accepted: 25 June 2020; Published: 28 June 2020 Abstract: Leaf insects (Phasmatodea: Phylliidae) exhibit perfect crypsis imitating leaves. Although the special appearance of the eggs of the species Phyllium philippinicum, which imitate plant seeds, has received attention in different taxonomic studies, the attachment capability of the eggs remains rather anecdotical. Weherein elucidate the specialized attachment mechanism of the eggs of this species and provide the first experimental approach to systematically characterize the functional properties of their adhesion by using different microscopy techniques and attachment force measurements on substrates with differing degrees of roughness and surface chemistry, as well as repetitive attachment/detachment cycles while under the influence of water contact. We found that a combination of folded exochorionic structures (pinnae) and a film of adhesive secretion contribute to attachment, which both respond to water. Adhesion is initiated by the glue, which becomes fluid through hydration, enabling adaption to the surface profile. Hierarchically structured pinnae support the spreading of the glue and reinforcement of the film. This combination aids the egg’s surface in adapting to the surface roughness, yet the attachment strength is additionally influenced by the egg’s surface chemistry, favoring hydrophilic substrates.

  • Special Edition: Moths Interview with Bart Coppens, Guest Speaker at ICBES 2017
    INTERNATIONAL ASSOCI ATION OF BUTTERFLY EXHIBITORS AND SUPPL IERS Volume 16 Number 3 MAI– JUNE 2017 Visit us on the web at www.iabes.org Special edition: moths Interview with Bart Coppens, guest speaker at ICBES 2017 Who are you? I’m Bart Coppens (24) from the Netherlands – a fervent breeder of moths and aspiring entomologist. In my home I breed over 50 species of moths (mainly Saturniidae) on yearly basis. My goal is to expand what started out as a hobby into something more scientific. It turns out the life cycle and biology of many Saturni- idae is poorly known or even unrecorded. By importing eggs and cocoons of rare and obscure species and breeding them in cap- tivity I am able to record undescribed larvae, host plants and the life history of several moth species – information that I publish on a scientific level. My ambition is also to gradually get into more difficult subjects such as the taxonomy, morphology and evolution and perhaps even the organic chemistry (in terms of defensive chemicals) of Saturniidae – but for now these subjects are still beyond my le- Bart with Graellsia isabella vel of comprehension, as relatively young person that has not yet completed a formal education. I’d also like to say I have a general passion for all kinds of Lepidoptera, from butterflies to the tiniest species of moths, I truly like all of them. The reason I mention Saturniidae so much is because I have invested most of my time and expertise into this particular family of Lepidoptera, simply because this order of insects is too big to study on a general scale, so I decided to specialise myself a little in the kinds of moths I find the most impressi- ve and fascinating myself – and was already the most familiar with due to my breeding hobby.
