New photo database/unidentified leps

[Thomas Eichlin]

Liz,

Yes, zea had been placed in Helicoverpa in 1965 by Hardwick.  Poole, 1989, Lepidopterorum Catalogus, continued to use this combination in this world catalog of the Noctuidae.

Not Heliothis zea?   Name change?

 >Closeup photos are the main feature of a new pollinator/plant database which
 >has been started at The Pollination Home Page.  I'm trying to document, 
as much
 >as possible all visitors to flowers, including bees, leps, syrphid flies,
 >beetles, etc. I'm primarily a bee person, and I have trouble identifying many
 >of these, and I'm pretty much lost when it comes to leps, so many images will
 >be going up without identification.  If any lepidopterists want to take a 
shot
 >at ID, and offer any other advice, I'd appreciate it.

 >I'm also going to be adding caterpillar/feed plant photos at this site:
 >http://pollinator.com/plant_pol/caterpillars/caterpillar.htm 
 >This is a brand new area for me, though I've often noted that 
caterpillars are
 >beautiful and interesting photo subjects (and often much easier to photograph
 >than their parents...).

 >  I hope you enjoy the photos, and if you can help, it will be appreciated.

 >  One of the reasons for this is to offer the images as a service to teachers
 >and others who help educate people. As long as the use is nonprofit and
 >educational, the images are available free of charge according to the 
terms at:
 >http://pollinator.com/use_photos.htm 
 >If you want them for commercial use, please contact me.
