Mr. Neumoegen and myself are at work upon this genus, with a view to present a revision of it; there are, however, some points upon which I should like to make a few independent remarks. The genus Halisidota is exclusively American, its stronghold being in the South. Indeed, the whole sub-family, the Phægopterinæ, are strongly, American, there being no European species and but few African, While still fewer reach through the East Indies to Australia.

Tubpontania gen. nov. (type species Nematus anomalopterus Förster, 1854), is proposed for the species of the former Pontania crassispina group. Tubpontania anomaloptera (Förster, 1854), comb. nov., = Amauronematus maidli Zirngiebl, 1937, syn. nov., = Nematus (Pontania) tuberculatus Benson, 1953, syn. nov. Other European species of the genus are Tubpontania cyrnea (Liston, 2005) (= Pontania joergenseni Enslin, 1916, syn. nov.; preoccupied by Pontania jörgenseni Strand, 1908), Tubpontania crassispina (Thomson, 1871), comb. nov., Tubpontania purpureae (Cameron, 1884), comb. nov., and Tubpontania nudipectus (Vikberg, 1965), comb. nov. Tubpontania nitidinota sp. nov., closely related to T. nudipectus, is described from Fennoscandia. Furthermore, the following North American species belong here: Tubpontania arctophilae (Benson, 1960), comb. nov., Tubpontania populi (Marlatt, 1896), comb. nov., Tubpontania pumila (Rohwer, 1910), comb. nov., Tubpontania rotundidentata (Zinovjev & Vikberg, 1999), comb. nov. and Tubpontania terminalis (Marlatt, 1896), comb. nov.

Again, the genera Citheronia and Eacles are a South American element in our fauna, while the typical Attacinæ, such as Actias, probably belong to the Old World element in our fauna, together with all our Platypteryginœ. Among the Hawk Moths the genera Philampelus and Phlegethontius are of probable South American extraction, though represented now by certain strictly North American species. Mr. Robert Bunker, writing from Rochester, N. Y., records the fact that Philampelus Pandorus, going into chrysaiis Augnst 1, came out Sept. 10 as a moth, showing that in a warmer climate the species would become doublebrooded. And this is undoubtedly the case with many species the farther we go South, where insect activities are not interrupted so long and so strictly by the cold of winter. Since the continuance of the pupal condition is influenced by cold, a diminishing seasonal temperature for ages may have originally affected, if not induced, the transformations of insects as a whole. Butterflies and Moths which are single brooded in the North become double brooded in the South.

The Individual

The results are given of a survey of the cestode fauna of several thousand fishes representing thirty species common in the Hudson bay drainage system, particularly in the Hudson bay and in the larger lakes of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The survey yielded twelve species of adult and seven species of larval cestodes, ten of which were identical with European species, while seven were purely North American. The incidence of infection was high and the individual intensity was heavy. The highest incidence and heaviest intensity occurred among nektonic types such as Hiodon, Leucichthys, Esox, Lucioperca and Salvelinus. Benthonic forms such as Catostomus, Ameiurus, Lota, Acipenser and Coregonus, were found relatively free from infection.The North American species of Cyathocephalus and Diplocotyle are regarded as identical with the European species C. truncatus and D. Olrikii; the species C. americanus Cooper, and Bothrimonus intermedius Cooper are rejected. The triaenophorid common in the area is regarded as Triaenophorus tricuspidatus (Bloch), and two morphae are recognized, microdentatus and megadentatus, the latter equivalent to T. robustus (Olsson). Bothriocephalus cuspidatus Cooper is regarded as comprising three sub-species, cuspidatus, hiodontos and luciopercae. The eubothriid cestode in Lota lota maculosa is regarded as identical with the European E. rugosum, but comprising two morphae, conformatus and deformatus. Two new species of Proteocephalus are described, namely coregoni from Coregonus atikameg, and luciopercae from Lucioperca vitreum.

The north-western European species of the laevigatus-group of Apanteles are revised. Forty species are dealt with, of which twenty are described as new. Brief notes are added on North American species of the group in the British Museum (Nat. Hist.) to assist their eventual correlation with the European species.

A brief description of three North-American species of rowan trees from the collection of the South-Ural Botanical Garden-Institute of Ufa Federal Research Centre of Russian Academy of Sciences (UFRC RAS): Sorbus decora, Sorbus americana and Sorbus scopulina is given. The climatic conditions of introduction area are similar in temperature to the parameters of the natural range of the North American S. decora: they are not optimal for it, but the plants bloom and give viable seeds. It can be assumed that vital signs of S. decora would be higher in milder climate and favorable water-physical soil conditions. According to the analysis of variance, it is revealed that the conditions of the year and species characteristics significantly affect all the phenological phases of development of North American rowan trees. At the same time, they are more dependent on the temperature conditions of the year (F=17.4 at p<0.001) and less on species characteristics (F=6.2, at p<0.001), although the sequence of phenophases is maintained from year to year. The average vegetation period of rowan trees is 154–163 days. S. decora growing in the Botanical Garden for a long time (planted in 1960–1974) and relatively new species for the collection – S. mericana and S. scopulina (2009–2013) can be considered promising decorative crops for growing in the climatic conditions of Ufa and the Bashkir Urals

Dyar (1913) listed Diathrausta reconditalis (Walker) as a “form” of the South American D. nerinalis (Walker) and described as new the “form” harlequinalis from Arizona. From the context it is evident that in that paper Dyar used “form” as equivalent to geographic race, and the form names he proposed there can accordingly be treated as valid trinomina. Haimbach (1915), apparently in ignorance of Dyar's paper, described Diathrausta montana from Colorado. This was sunk by Barnes and McDunnough (1917) as a synonym of harlequinalis. Barnes and McDunnough listed harlequinalis as a geographical race of reconditalis, but did not follow Dyar in uniting these with nerinalis.

Generic Rank

Over a century ago in his memoir on Gorytes, Lepeletier proposed Lestiphorus for the reception of Rossi's distinctive European species Crabro bicinctus. However, very few subsequent authors have recognized it as a discrete generic entity. It has generally been regarded as merely a species group or occasionally treated as a subgenus of Gorytes or some related genus. But Lestiphorus, although small, is indubitably entitled to full generic rank.

Woody Shrubs

Aronia Medik. (chokeberry, Rosaceae) is a genus of woody shrubs with two or three North American species. Species boundaries and relationships between species of Aronia are frequently under question. The only European species in the genus, A. mitschurinii A.K.Skvortsov & Maitul., is suggested to be an inter-generic hybrid. In order to clarify the relationships between species of Aronia, we performed several morphometric and molecular analyses and found that the molecular and morphological diversity within data on American Aronia is low, and species boundaries are mostly not clearly expressed. Whereas morphology is able to separate American species from A. mitschurinii, there is no support for such discrimination from the molecular data; our analyses did not reveal evidence of A. mitschurinii hybrid origin. We believe that higher-resolution markers are needed to resolve species boundaries and putative hybridization events.

AbstractThe north-western European species of the vitripennis, pallipes, octonarius, triangulator, fraternus, formosus, parasitellae, metacarpalis and circumscriptus-groups of Apanteles are revised. Sixty-five species are dealt with, of which twenty-four are described as new. One species, A. exiguus (Haliday), is lifted from synonymy. Brief notes are added on North American species of the circumscriptus-group in the British Museum (Nat. Hist.) to assist their eventual correlation with the European species. Reference is also made to two species of Hypomicrogaster.
