Abstract:  I present a check list of 656 Macrolepidoptera species recorded from the American Entomological Institute property in Alachua County, Florida.  I list 31 additional species in various other families.  The habitat present on the property is second growth mesic hardwood-pine forest on former agricultural land.

 

Introduction:  The American Entomological Institute property contains second growth mesic hardwood-pine forest on former agricultural land.  A man made retention pond with some submergent vegetation occurs approximately 1/2 mile away.  Some grassy forest edge occurs about 0.1 miles away.  The wetlands associated with Payne’s Prairie begin 2-3 miles from this site.  This site is the private property of the American Entomological Institute.

 

A check list of 673 Lepidoptera species in the included families (including 642 Macrolepidoptera species) was published in:

 

Kons, Hugo L. Jr. and Robert J. Borth.  2006.  Contributions to a study of the diversity, distribution, habitat association, and phenology of the Lepidoptera of Northern Florida.  North American Journal of Lepidoptera Biodiversity.  Volume I: 1-231. 

 

This publication also includes north Florida phenology and habitat data and analyses for north Florida Lepidoptera species (in the included families) based on surveys conducted by Kons and/or Robert Borth at numerous Florida localities, including the A.E.I.  The detailed data for the A.E.I. surveys will be published in several future volumes of the North American Journal of Lepidoptera Biodiversity.  The first of these will include the flight season data recorded for each species over the first four years, enabling one to see how recorded flight seasons and frequency of recorded occurrence differed between these seasons for each species.  To receive an e-mail notification when new NAJLB volumes become available, please contact hkonsjr@yahoo.com

 

Methods:  Survey methods include a MV sheet with a 160 watt MV light, an AC UV Trap with a 33 watt BLB UV light, a bait trail, a baited felt line, bait traps, malaise traps, and diurnal survey with a net.  Follow this link for a more detailed discussion and illustrations of these survey methods. 

            I have conducted extensive collecting at this site from 2001-2007 and ongoing.  The most intensive survey was conducted from 2001 to 2004.  During this interval, 354 all night MV sheet samples were obtained, 179 partial night MV sheet samples were obtained, 1102 nights of UV trap samples were obtained, and 532 bait trail samples were obtained.  Each of these samples involved an attempt to collect each species encountered in the above families, excluding some of the common large Saturniidae and Sphingidae.  The all night samples usually did not involve constant collecting, but rather periodically checking the sheet and bait trail.  In addition, bait traps have been run at the site continuously except when the author has been gone on trips.  Survey has been conducted nearly year round except for the interval from mid December to mid or late January (a light trap was run with an ethanol collecting container during this interval some years) and when the author has been gone on other extended collecting trips (4-6 weeks between late April and August during each season from 2002 to 2007).  The author began recording quantitative samples for the number of individuals of each species in the included families in the light trap samples starting in 2002.  Quantitative sampling with the light trap has continued since that time, but light trap samples were collected only during the spring and fall during 2006 and 2007. 

 

Voucher Specimens:  Voucher specimens for all of the A.E.I. species are currently housed in the author’s research collection in Gainesville.  I have also made substantial donations of A.E.I. specimens to the Milwaukee Public Museum, but the vast majority of specimens are in my Gainesville collection.

 

Results and Discussion:  The A.E.I. check list has been expanded to 656 Macrolepidoptera species as of 30 November 2007.  This total includes species which have been recorded from few specimens at the A.E.I., and in all likelihood represent dispersers or strays rather than resident species.  The below figure, from a draft of an upcoming volume of the NAJLB, shows how the percentage of nocturnal A.E.I. Macrolepidoptera species recorded from a single survey night changed over time from 2001 to 2004.  It also shows how this value changed in relationship to what percentage of the nocturnal Macrolepidoptera species from the four year species total had been recorded.  For example, on the below figure note that by the end of early June 2001 about 11% of the Macrolepidoptera species recorded had been found on only one survey night, and just under 90% of the species recorded from 2001 to 2004 had been recorded.  For the four year species total, it took less time to record the first 90% of the species than the next 8% of the species.  By the end of April 2002, the percentage of species recorded from a single survey night stabilized at just over 10%, with a subsequent near equilibrium reached between the rate of adding a new species and recording a second occurrence of a species that had been recorded once.  By the fall of 2004 this equilibrium had been reached for all values of n between 1 and 100, where n represents the number of nights a species was recorded from 2001 to 2004.

 

 

Acknowledgments:  I am especially grateful to my employer, David Wahl and the American Entomological Institute, for providing land access, infrastructural support, lab and storage space, and a flexible work schedule to aid in my Lepidoptera research.  I thank James Adams and Ed Knudson for discussions of taxonomically problematic groups of southeast U.S. Lepidoptera.  Hugo Kons Sr., Sharon Kons, Danny McFather, and Jim Lloyd assisted with building traps, and Danny McFather built a specimen storage cabinet.  For assistance with acquiring chemicals important to collecting or genitalic dissections, I thank Niklaus Hostettler, Jim Lloyd, Robert Robbins, and David Wahl.
