Studies on the fauna and zoogeography of Papilionoidea and Hesperioidea (Lepidoptera) of the Celestial Mountain Range [in Turkish], Cent. ent. Stud., Priamus Suppl. 2: 1-122, Tabs., 8 Pls.

In this study, the fauna, taxonomy,  ecological and zoogeographical features of the butterflies occuring in the Celestial Mountain Range are investigated. For this purpose, totally 291 species and 446 subspecies, belonging to the superfamilies Papilionoidea and Hesperioidea, including 156 species recorded by the author are studied. All the genus and species group names are controlled and updated in accordance with the Rules of the Code on the Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN). Proposals for the determined taxonomical problems are given. In Lycaenidae, Margelycaena (nom. nov.) and Athamanthia Zhdanko,1983 (syn.nov.) are proposed. Ecological information on some species obtained and 5339 specimens collected during the field works are evaluated. Faunal and ecological data determined here to be new are explained. Elements of the faunal regions composing some faunas of the mountains in the Celestial Mountain Range are evaluated zoogeographically. It was determined that the elements composing the whole fauna of the Celestial Mountains belong to totally 42 faunal regions. Zoogeographical results obtained are discussed and proposals are given.

Results of the Entomofauna of the World based upon info-system of the Cesa. Cent. ent. Stud., Priamus Suppl. 18:  1-3186, 2 figs, 1 map.

Editorial: Under this major title, totally 88 regional reports, a generic list of the pterygot insects and a bibliographical evaluation are published in this  number of the Priamus (supplement).  The   Project “Entomofauna of the World” (except Lepidoptera) has been carrying out by the researchers of the Cesa for some years. The temporary results of the reports submitted here are based upon not only the literary data, but also the field results of the authors’ expeditions to several states realized in earlier decades. In each report submitted, faunistical, taxonomical and nomenclatural information are revised as far as possible, updated accordingly with footnotes. References to the faunal information of some states published in recent years are also mentioned in the related reports.  The following states are newly  added to the research program on the pterygot fauna within the frame of entomofaunal surveys of the Cesa: Austria, Bulgaria, Creta, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Macedonia, Romania, Spain, Sweden and Ukraine in Europe; Afghanistan, China, Cyprus, Israel, India, Iraq, Jordan, Japan, Kazachstan, Kirgizistan, Lebanon, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Pakistan, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Tadjikistan, Turkmenistan, Taiwan, Uighur Ili, Uzbekistan, and Yemen in Asia; Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico, Peru, Surinam, United States, and Venezuela in America. Recording the faunal data of these states mentioned above are very at the beginning. Comparatively more advanced faunal lists belong to Turkey and some Middle East countries in Asia.  Concerning the order Lepidoptera, results of the Project Lepidoptera of  the Old World (LOW), will be published in the next issue of this serial. Finally, this not an ordinary but a planned, long-termed study. If it is needed, the Cesa projects with their published reports should be compared by the readers with the equivalent attempts only.

An illustrated synopsis and keys to afrotropical genera of the epifamily Dolichopodoidae (Diptera: Empidoidea). Cent. ent. Stud., Priamus (Supplement) 24: 1-98, 305 figs.

The use of the epifamily rank Dolichopodoidae (type genus Dolichopus Latreille, 1796) is proposed for the Dolichopodidae s. lat., incorporating paraphyletic families Dolichopodidae and Microphoridae and subfamily Parathalassiinae incertae sedis that shares features of both Dolichopodidae and Microphoridae. Additionally, the use of the epifamily rank Empidoidae (type genus Empis Linnaeus, 1758) is proposed for the rest families of the superfamily Empidoidea. A brief synopsis of 84 genera of Dolichopodidae s.s. and 3 genera of Microphoridae and Parathalassiinae is given along with illustration of habitus of some typical and rare afrotropical species. Revised keys to afrotropical genera of the family Dolichopodidae (Diptera) are compiled. Illustration of typical characters of most afrotropical genera is given. Dactylonotus meuffelsi Grichanov, 1998, is placed in synonymy to D. rudebecki Vanschuytbroeck, 1960 (syn. nov.). The following recombinations are also proposed: Amblypsilopus prysjonesi (Meuffels et Grootaert, 2007), comb. nov., Bickeliolus gerlachi (Meuffels et Grootaert, 2007), comb. nov., Lichtwardtia melanesiana (Bickel, 2008), comb. nov.

Kemal,M. & E.Seven, 2013. Studies on the fauna and ecology of the Geometridae (Lepidoptera) in Şirvan district (Siirt Province, SE Turkey) [in Turkish with english abstract]. Cent. ent. Stud., Priamus (Suppl.) 29:  vi+1-41, figs.

This study was realized by the authors on the fauna and the ecology of the Geometridae of Şirvan by day and by night between April 2008 and April 2011. Totally 67 species, belonging to 41 genera of  5 subfamilies were recorded in the studying area. For this purpose, authors studied 9 different types of habitats between 640-1800m above sea level, and in different seasons. Results were evaluated in the report from the faunistical and ecological standpoints. Faunistically, Drepanopterula limaria (Ennominae) is new to the fauna of Turkey. The rest of  the recorded species are new to Şirvan district and Siirt province. Ecological results are based upon the regional plant cover, topographical features,  and the climatic conditions. Rare and little known geometrid species appear mainly in early spring. This group of species is represented by 47% of the whole geometrid species of the region. Investigations revealed that the species diversity is represented at highest value between the altitudes 800-1000m. Separately, total 139 plant species of 132 genera in 53 families were mentioned in this report as new to Şirvan district.

Mukherjee,T.K., Ehrmann, R. & P. Chatterjee, 2014. Checklist of Mantodea (Insecta) from India. Priamus (Suppl.) 30: 1-61.

Mukherjee et al (1995), the only comprehensive article on the Mantodea fauna of  India, listed 68 genera and 162 species. The catalogue of Ehrmann (2002) is the latest reference to world mantodean fauna. Ehrmann (2002) mentioned several Indian species were not found in Mukherjee et al. (1995). Many names have been changed or shifted to other genera. Moreover, few new genera and species have been discovered in later years. Thus 71 genera and 169 species are now known from India. However, occurrence of few species seems doubtful because of no further reference after their first report in literature. Several earlier authors vaguely mentioned locality as India, or Inde Orientale or Oriental India. This problem remained for many species and here mentioned as per literature references. Similarly, the type deposition of earlier materials is still a problem: some are confusing while some are believed lost, especially that of St. Joseph’s College, Tiruchirapally (India) where types of Bolivar (1897, 1899) should be present. Mention of some personal collection could be seen in literature and it is uncertain if the types are still present. Unfortunately, few very recent new genus/species are lying with authors’ custody instead of any national depository. Mukherjee et al. (2005) has categorically mentioned all the types of mantids present at Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata (Calcutta), India. The classification followed here is partly that of Ehrmann & Roy (2002). Two genera and fifteen species are synonymized here.

Among them, 420 species belong to the butterfly families, and  3505 species to the moths. Rich distributional information for each taxa in Iran and also in abroad are mentioned as codes. Original references are also added to some taxa. As a separate informative and complementary list of the 1240 subspecies known in Iran is also given. For 57 families brief, and full annotated bibliographically as 1534 items are evaluated and mentioned. Selected provincial lists of the species are added. Together with their species numbers recorded, these provinces are as follows; Eastern Azerbaijan Province (234), Western Azerbaijan Province (468), Fars Province (1164), Kerman Province (244), Khorasan Province (554), Kurdistan Province (255), Mazandaran Province (645),  Sistan-Beluchistan Province (596),  Tehran Province (925), and Zanjan Province (136).
