Castniidae of the Museum of Natural History of the University of Wrocław: new findings from Friedrich Wilhelm Niepelt's collection with comments on K…

2021

Further results of our research into the Giant Butterfly-Moths (Castniidae) of the Museum of Natural History (University of Wrocław) are presented. Castniids of the Niepelt collection had previously been reviewed. However, while curating other sections of the Lepidoptera collection, we discovered 18 misplaced specimens belonging to nine taxa of Castniidae, several of them bearing typical labels by Niepelt. Among them, two are of particular interest, insofar as they are associated with the world-class botanists August Weberbauer (1871–1948) and Karl Adolf Georg Lauterbach (1864–1937).

IL CASO STUDIO DI ALCUNE PGM: IMPLICAZIONI PER LE SPECIE DI LEPIDOTTERI NON BERSAGLIO NELLE AREE PROTETTE SICILIANE

2012

La Sicilia è una delle regioni mediterranee con la maggior biodiversità faunistica e floristica la cui conservazione, potrà dipendere anche da un attento piano di valutazione del rischio derivante dall’introduzione di piante geneticamente modificate (PGM) sugli organismi non target. A tal fine sono state scelte due aree rappresentative di differenti habitat siciliani: il SIC “Raffo Rosso, Monte Cuccio e Vallone Sagana (ITA020023) e il SIC “Capo Gallo” (ITA020006). Sono stati individuati 5 habitat: Uliveto, Bosco misto, Ampelodesmeto, Macchia mediterranea e Macchia mediterranea costiera per valutare il potenziale rischio di introduzione di PGM Bt.

2013

Even though natural history museums are seen by some as rather gloomy places, they are actually repositories of countless treasures and magnificent sources of knowledge. The Museum of Natural History of the University of Wroclaw is no exception. A process to curate all Museum’s Lepidoptera that started in 2012 allowed us to find among its several collections, the one that originally belonged to the renowned entomologist and insect dealer Friedrich Wilhelm Niepelt. Among the few moth groups in such collection 37 specimens within 19 species and 22 taxa of the neotropical giant butterfly-moths (Castniidae) were found. Even though several of those specimens lack detailed collecting information,…
