The Eriopinae species of Taiwan are revised. In total 17 species in 1 genus are recognized. Two species, namely Callopistria nobilior Eda, 2000 and C. rivularis Walker, [1858]1857, both added to the Eriopinae fauna of Taiwan after the publishing of the Lepidoptera of Taiwan (checklist) in 1992, are included. In the present study, 20 hostplant recor...

Its objective is to identify the current positioning of horchata brands that are sold in the main sales points of the city of H.Cárdenas, Tabasco. In this sense it was necessary to identify the different positioning measurement models, using the one proposed by (Mullins, Walker, Boyd &Larreché, 2007). A mixed investigation was carried out using var...

A walk in the morning along the green paths is called as morning walk. The purpose of this study is to find out the relationship between the morning walk and blood in the urine of the morning walkers. Morning walk is a beneficial for the good health and mind state. The people who do morning walk spend the healthy life and are protected from many di...
The geodesic deviation equation (`GDE') provides an elegant tool to investigate the timelike, null and spacelike structure of spacetime geometries. Here we employ the GDE to review these structures within the Friedmann--Lema\^{\i}tre--Robertson--Walker (`FLRW') models, where we assume the sources to be given by a non-interacting mixture of incohere...

... These include the tapered, ear-shaped valves without a linear corona, the presence in T. subvenata of small saccular coremata on the inner face of the valves, and narrow sclerotization along the basal half of the phallus, which dissipates in the distal third (cf . Holloway 1989;Yen and Wu 2009). The "ballooning" of the tegumen noted in several Callopistria can also be seen, particularly in T. subvenata (Fig. 23), which is the only Thraumata with basal abdominal hair pencils (Fig. 27) known in most Callopistria species but absent from Phosphilini. ...
... The more diffuse tufts at the base of the valves on T. subvenata (Fig. 23) are comparable to the eversible saccular coremata mentioned by Fibiger and Lafontaine as well as Holloway (1989) as features of Eriopinae. Other such features adduced by Yen and Wu (2009) and visible in Thraumata include the "ladder-shaped" (or H-shaped) antero-medially incised male 8 th abdominal sternite; scale tufts associated with the paired pleural rods at the base of sternum A8 (only in T. subvenata, Fig. 27); the absence of the clasper complex from the valve (Figs 18, 21, 23); short vinculum (especially in T. subvenata, Fig. 23); narrow, asymmetrically sclerotized phallus (Figs 19,20); and, in the female, a membranous, oblong corpus bursae (Figs 28-30). None of these can be considered uniquely derived within Noctuidae, however. ...
... Although the larvae of Phuphena have thus far been associated exclusively with ferns and differ in many other respects from the gaudy, semi-gregarious larvae of Phosphilini, which have been recorded only from Smilacaceae, we have as yet only been able to examine larvae indirectly, through images. Without specimens, none of the larval characters discussed by Crumb (1956), Beck (1960Beck ( , 1999Beck ( -2000, Poole (1995), Fibiger and Lafontaine (2005), or Yen and Wu (2009) that might support or refute their placement in Eriopinae can be examined critically, and to our knowledge no reared larvae of Thraumata have been described or imaged. These circumstances reinforce the need for a thorough revision of the current concept of the Eriopinae as the analyses of groups long placed in the Amphipyrinae proceed (Keegan et al. 2019). ...
Thraumatagen. nov. is described to accommodate three South American species, two previously placed in Phuphena Walker, 1858, namely Thraumata petrovna (Schaus, 1904), comb. nov. and Thraumata subvenata (Schaus, 1914), comb. nov.; and one, Thraumata peruviensiasp. nov., newly described from Peru. Although the larval biology is unknown, these species share several features that suggest their placement in Eriopinae and, as a consequence, a potential association with ferns (Pteridophyta) as larval host plants.
... Since pteridivory (fern-feeding) occurs in few noctuid groups and is unrecorded both for Bagisarinae and for the Xylenini, in which Xanthia resides, we wished to evaluate whether this species shares any of the primary features of the Eriopinae. The Eriopinae are not decisively circumscribed, but a combination of numerous adult and larval features have been articulated by Poole (1995), Fibiger and Lafontaine (2005), and Yen and Wu (2009). ...
... Although some of the larval characters that can be seen in A. patula are consistent with those in Eriopinae, including cephalic striping, oblique lateral striping and false eyespots on the first abdominal segment (Yen and Wu 2009), they are not diagnostic, and most of the larval characters that would corroborate the assignment of Aprica to Eriopinae (including setal characters and features of the spinneret) are not discernible from available images. Two features in the adults consistent with Eriopinae are the expression and configuration of M2 arising from the discal cell in the hind wing ( Fig. 21) and non-uniform sclerotization of the phallus (Figs 24-27), which is primarily confined apically and ventrally (Yen and Wu 2009). Abdominal hair pencils and eversible coremata on the sacculus (Fibiger and Lafontaine 2005) typical of Eriopinae are lacking. ...
... In addition to the exercise of circumscribing such genera as well as the Eriopinae, questions remain among the higher-level assignments of those with no obvious relatives, including Aprica. Although images of larvae reveal certain features common to many fern-feeding caterpillars (green-brown polymorphism, the presence of eyespots on A1, cephalic striping), most of the larval characters discussed by Beck (1960Beck ( , 1999Beck ( -2000, Poole (1995), Fibiger and Lafontaine (2005), and Yen and Wu (2009) that could potentially corroborate a higher taxonomic cannot be visualized from available habitus images of living larvae. Adult features considered diagnostic for Eriopinae (e.g., uniquely configured abdominal brushes, eversible saccular coremata, simple membranous corpus bursae without signa) are not observed in Aprica patula. ...
Aprica Goldstein, gen. nov. is described to accommodate Xanthiapatula Druce, 1898. Recent discovery of its larva, which has been recorded eating foliage of species in six families of leptosporangiate ferns, suggest a possible subfamily assignment within the Eriopinae, but this cannot be substantiated based on adult morphology. This species has no obvious close relatives either among the core noctuid pteridivore genera currently recognized in the Eriopinae (e.g., Callopistria Hübner, [1821]), nor among genera more recently discovered to be fern-feeders but which remain incertae sedis with respect to subfamily (e.g., Leucosigma Druce, 1908, Lophomyra Schaus, 1911). The recorded foodplant profile is similar to that of another ambiguously placed Nearctic species Fagitanalittera (Guenée, 1852) (Noctuidae: Noctuinae: Xylenini, incertae sedis) with which it shares no obvious synapomorphies.
... The species is common in the eastern part of Palaearctic region but rare in Taiwan. Totally less than 20 specimen are deposited in TFRI and NMNS (Yen and Wu, 2009 (Fig. 2) 3 , Hualien, Ci en, 28-VI-2012, Wu & Chang; 1 , same locality, 10-XI-2012, Wu. ...
Une nouvelle espèce du genre Callopistria Hübner, 1821, C. longipilosa n. sp., est décrite sur une série de cinq spécimens de Guyane. Elle est comparée à C. leucotoma (Druce, 1908) décrite du Pérou mais également présente en Guyane. L'habitus et les genitalia sont illustrés. Deux nouvelles combinaisons et deux nouvelles synonymies sont proposées: Phuphena plinthobaps (Zerny, 1916) n. comb., Elaphria carmioli (Schaus, 1911) n. comb., Callopistria orses (Schaus, 1914) mis en synonymie avec C. panamensisDruce, 1889, et Callopistria trinidensis (Hampson, 1908) mis en synonymie avec C. floridensis (Guenée, 1852).
