I'm wondering if anyone has personal experience with or knows of
published info. on the ecology or life history of any of the following
macro moth species OTHER THAN THAT in: Covell '84, Tietz '72, Rings et al
'92, the McGuffin series and a series of articles on Spilosoma congrua
by Bowers and Stamp.
I have done a literature search, but I found next to nothing,
because I expect there is little or nothing on some of these species. Can
anyone help? The list of species is:
NOCTUIDAE: Orthodes cynica, Callopistra cordata, Protorthodes oviduca,
Idia americalis, Lasionycta albinuda, Polia detracta, Polia purpurrisata,
Eurois astricta, Eueretagrotis attenta, Xestia normaniana, Drasteria
adumbrata, Acronicta innotata, Heptagrotis phyllophora, Zanclognatha
jacchusalis
GEOMETRIDAE: Petrophora subaequaria, Homochlodes fritillaria, Cyclophora
pendulinaria, Nemoria rubrifrontaria, Antepione thisoaria, Semiothisa
neptaria, Tacparia detersata.
ARCTIIDAE: Spilosoma congrua
SPHINGIDAE: Sphinx gordius
NOTODONTIDAE: Peridea ferruginea
Thank you, and sorry for cross-postings.
