Introduction to the series. Archiearinae, Oenochrominae, Geometrinae de Axel Hausmann

Introduction to the series. Archiearinae, Oenochrominae, Geometrinae: The Geometrid Moths of Europe, cartea 1

Autor Axel Hausmann
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 dec 2000
The geographical area covered will be the whole of the geographical Europe. Each volume will illustrate the adults of all species in photographical colour plates of the best quality. Sexual dimorphism as well as polymorphism will be illustrated and if possible all subspecies too. Most species will be shown in natural size, but larger groups of small species such as the genera Idaea and Eupithecia will be shown enlarged. Each species will be treated using the following format: FULL NAME. ORIGINAL REFERENCE to all available nominal names (valid names and synonyms). DIAGNOSIS based on external features, including detail figures where necessary. MALE AND FEMALE GENITALIA of all species with line drawings or photographs. DISTRIBUTION. A summary of the European distribution and also of distribution outside the area treated. This paragraph is completed with a map of the European distribution. PHENOLOGY with detailed information about flight period or periods, if possible with reference to var

Notă biografică

Axel Hausmann was born in 1960 in Munich, Germany and studied biology at the Ludwig–Maximilians-University (Munich) where he graduated in zoology. After obtaining his PhD he has been employed since 1989 at the Zoologische Staatssammlung München, where he is head curator of the Lepidoptera section. Axel Hausmann has published many articles on Geometridae and is regarded as a leading authority on west Palaearctic Geometridae.

Recenzii

The book is excellent and I hope the next five volumes will be of the same high quality. Such monographs are crucial for future taxonomic studies aimed at improving our knowledge of the faunistic richness and biodiversity of Lepidoptera in Europe. [...] This book by A. Hausmann is recommended not only to all lepidopterists, but to all specialists engaged in applied entomology and conservation biology.

Descriere

The Lepidoptera are without doubt the best known insect order in today’s Europe. Nevertheless there is still a great lack of knowledge in some groups, such as the Geometridae. The northern and central European fauna is relatively well known, but the distribution and bionomics of a number of species are poorly known. This problem is much more marked in southern Europe where no books on Geometridae have been published for nearly a century. Data on the bionomics are frequently unavailable which makes it difficult to assess environmental threats to the geometrid species. Information on distribution is still grossly incomplete and many records have been based on misidentifications. These problems are mainly caused by the lack of comprehensive identification literature.

The geographical area covered in this series ranges from North Cape to Gibraltar and Malta, and from the Atlantic Ocean to the Ural Mountains. Each volume will illustrate the adults of all species, and if possible also subspecies, in photographic colour plates of the highest quality. Sexual dimorphism as well as polymorphism will be illustrated. Most species will be shown at natural size, but some larger groups of small species such as the genera Idaea and Eupithecia will be shown enlarged.
