An annotated check list of the North American species of Noctuoidea (Lepidoptera) is presented, consisting of 3693 species. One-hundred and sixty-six taxonomic changes are proposed, consisting of 13 speciesgroup taxa accorded species status (stat. n. and stat. rev.), 2 revalidated genus-group taxa (stat. rev.), and 2 family-group taxa raised to subfamily. Sixty-nine species-group taxa are downgraded to junior synonyms or subspecies (stat. n., syn. rev., and syn. n.), and 6 genera relegated to synonymy. Sixty-seven new or revised generic combinations are proposed. No new taxa are described. Six non-native species now believed to be established in North America are documented for the fi rst time, namely Simplicia cornicalis (Fabricius, 1794) . Th e check list is arranged according to species membership in higher-level taxa (family, subfamily, tribe, subtribe), based on the most recent working hypotheses of a comprehensive phylogenetic framework for the Noctuoidea.

“…The Geometridae S. vulneraria is a Neotropical species widely distributed from the southern portions of United States to southern South America, including the countries in Central America (Holland, 1916;Rindge, 1973;Becker, 2002;Pitkin, 2002 (Januário et al, 2013), as well as in forest recovery fragments and natural forest in the city of Botucatu, São Paulo State (Leitão-Lima, 2002).…”

First record of Sphacelodes vulneraria (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) damaging Hovenia dulcis in Brazil

-Hovenia dulcis Thunb. (Rhamnaceae), popularly known as Japanese raisin tree, is commonly used in shading aviaries and pigsties in south Brazil. In this note, we report for the first time the occurrence of Sphacelodes vulneraria (Hübner, 1823) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae: Ennominae) damaging H. dulcis crops in Brazil and its potential as a new pest of this forest species. Primeiro relato de Sphacelodes vulneraria (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) danificando Hovenia dulcis no BrazilResumo -Hovenia dulcis Thunb. (Rhamnaceae), conhecida popularmente como uvado-japão, é comumente utilizada para sombreamento de aviários e chiqueiros no Sul do Brasil. É relatada pela primeira vez no Brasil a ocorrência de Sphacelodes vulneraria (Hübner, 1823) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae: Ennominae) danificando árvores de H. dulcis, e o seu potencial como nova praga desta espécie florestal.

“…Tiracola grandirena (HerrichSchäffer, 1868) is the most widely distributed species in the Americas, occurring in countries such as Mexico, Cuba, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Venezuela and Brazil (Todd and Poole, 1980;Specht and Corseuil, 2001;Becker, 2002;Specht et al, 2004). The species has been confused with T. plagiata (Walker, 1857) (e.g.…”

“…Specht and Corseuil, 2001;Specht et al, 2004) because of intraspecific variation in colour, which also motivated Draudt (1924) to describe two varieties, magniplaga and mediosuffusa. In the Northern Hemisphere, the distribution of T. grandirena is restricted to the 20th parallel (between the towns of Jalapa, Cordoba and Misantla, Mexico) (Becker, 2002), whereas in the Southern Hemisphere it reaches parallel 30, in Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil (Specht et al, 2004).…”

Biological aspects of Tiracola grandirena (Herrich-Schäffer, 1868) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae): a polyphagous armyworm

We studied the biology of Tiracola grandirena (Herrich-Schäffer, 1868) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae: Hadeninae) at 25 ± 1 °C, 70 ± 10% RH and 14 hours of photo phase. Three experiments, using 150 larvae each, were conducted for the larval stage. In the first, used to assess the duration and survival of all stages, insects were reared individually and fed an artificial diet (Grenee). In the second, individuals were also reared separately, but were fed leaves of 10 plants from different families. In the third, the larvae were not individualised, the food plants were rotated such as to provide three plant species every 48 hours. In the first experiment, the viability of the eggs, larvae, pupae and prepupae was 91.9, 94.7, 32.49 and 43.5%, respectively. The average duration of the egg, larvae, prepupae, pupae and adult were 6.0, 25.3, 25.7, 21.4 and 12.7 days, respectively. The prolonged prepupal period indicates that T. grandirena can develop larval (prepupal) diapause. The results of the experiments with different host plants showed that T. grandirena is polyphagous at species, population and individual level.Keywords: caterpillar, developmental biology, prepupal diapause, Hadeninae.
