Isbn: 9789838121620 - a preliminary guide to the pyralid moths of borneo, part 1: thyridoidea and pyraloidea: pyralidae (2 Ergebnisse)

Quarto, laminated boards, spirally bound,89 pp.,colour photographs. Borneo is a geographical entity, a very large island shared between several nations. Most of the collecting and curating effort on Bornean pyraloids in recent decades has been done in Sabah, particularly on and around Mount Kinabalu. It is hoped this Guide will stimulate study in other parts of the island. This is Part 1 of three planned guides. The main group in this part is the family Pyralidae, which together with the Crambidae forms the superfamily Pyraloidea. Members of the Pyralidae are often referred to as âpyralidsâ, and likewise âcrambidsâ for the Crambidae. The term âpyraloidâ used often here refers to both pyralids and crambids ie. all the members of the superfamily Pyraloidea. Part 2 will cover the subfamilies Midilinae; Schoenobiinae; Acentropinae; Crambinae; Scopariinae; Glaphyriinae; Evergestinae; Noordinae and Odontiinae. Part 3 will cover the Spilomelinae; Wurthiinae; Pyraustinae; Cybalomiinae and Heliothelinae.…

Zustand: New. 89, 1077 col photos. A4. HB. NEW. . This is Part 1 of 3 and covers the Thyridoidea and the Pyraloidea: Pyralidae sensu Regier, J. O. et al 2012. (Parts 2 & 3 will deal with the Crambidae). The core of Part 1 is a set of 35 high quality colour plates each with a capacity of 35 half images of adult moths. Opposite each plate is a page of corresponding legends. The book is ring-bound to allow it to lie flat on a laboratory bench when identifying specimens. The plates are semi-matt to cut down on reflections.This is an illustrated guide, not a taxonomic monograph. Identification is on the basis of external features only. Many images of morphotypes at or near the species level are included to give a starting point for those wishing to explore further the fauna of Borneo.Includes - Thyrididae: 168 named species, 127 unnamed 'species' (the latter make up 43% of the total of 295 taxa.); Pyralidae: 286 named species, 379 unnamed 'species' (the latter making up 60% of the total of 665 taxa). Subfamilies included are the Galleriinae, Chrysauginae, Pyralinae, Epipaschiinae and Phycitinae. [9789838121620].…
