Archyala Opulenta
''Archyala opulenta'' is a species of moth of the family Tineidae. This species is endemic to New Zealand has been found in the upper Maitai Valley in Nelson as well as in Northland. The larvae of this species are associated with endemic bat species as they feed on the guano of Mystacinidae. The adult moths are on the wing in November. It is classified as "Data Deficient" under the New Zealand Threat Classification System by the Department of Conservation. Taxonomy This species was described by Alfred Philpott in 1926 from specimens collected in the upper Maitai Valley in Nelson by E. S. Gourlay in November. George Hudson in 1928 discussed this species as a synonym of '' A. terranea.'' However, in 1927 Philpott had shown a diagnostic difference between these two species when he illustrated the male genitalia of ''A. opulenta''. The holotype specimen is held at the New Zealand Arthropod Collection. Description Philpott described this species as follows: Distribution It ...

''Archyala terranea'' is a species of moth in the family Tineidae. It was described by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1879. This species is Endemism, endemic to New Zealand. This species has been recorded as being on the wing from December to February. Larvae feed in moss on rocks and pupates amongst the moss in a rough, dense cocoon. ''A. terranea'' has been collected in Wellington, Christchurch, Castle Hill, New Zealand, Castle hill, Dunedin, and Lake Wakatipu.

Archyala Lindsayi
''Archyala lindsayi'' is a species of moth in the family Tineidae. This species is endemic to New Zealand. It is classified as "At Risk, Naturally Uncommon" by the Department of Conservation. Taxonomy This species was described by Alfred Philpott in 1927 and given the name ''Tinea lindsayi''. Philpott used a specimen Stewart Lindsay collected at Mount Grey in North Canterbury and named the species in his honour. In 1928 George Hudson discussed and illustrated the species in his book ''The Butterflies and Moths of New Zealand.'' However John S. Dugdale is of the opinion that the illustration is an inaccurate representation of the species. In 1988 Dugdale placed this species within the genus ''Archyala''. The holotype specimen is held at the Canterbury Museum. Description Philpott described the species as follows: Distribution This species is endemic to New Zealand.

Tineidae Genera
Tineidae is a family of moths in the order Lepidoptera described by Pierre André Latreille in 1810. Collectively, they are known as fungus moths or tineid moths. The family contains considerably more than 3,000 species in more than 300 genera. Most of the tineid moths are small or medium-sized, with wings held roofwise over the body when at rest. They are particularly common in the Palaearctic, but many occur elsewhere, and some are found very widely as introduced species. Tineids are unusual among Lepidoptera as the larvae of only a very small number of species feed on living plants, the majority feeding on fungi, lichens, and detritus. The most familiar members of the family are the clothes moths, which have adapted to feeding on stored fabrics and led to their reputation as a household pest. The most widespread of such species are the common clothes moth (''Tineola bisselliella''), the case-bearing clothes moth (''Tinea pellionella''), and the carpet moth (''Trichophaga tape ...

Auckland Museum
The Auckland War Memorial Museum Tāmaki Paenga Hira (or simply the Auckland Museum) is one of New Zealand's most important museums and war memorials. Its collections concentrate on New Zealand history (and especially the history of the Auckland Region), natural history, and military history. The present museum building was constructed in the 1920s in the neo-classicist style, and sits on a grassed plinth (the remains of a dormant volcano) in the Auckland Domain, a large public park close to the Auckland CBD. Auckland Museum's collections and exhibits began in 1852. In 1867 Aucklanders formed a learned society – the Auckland Philosophical Society, later the Auckland Institute. Within a few years the society merged with the museum and '' Auckland Institute and Museum'' was the organisation's name until 1996. Auckland War Memorial Museum was the name of the new building opened in 1929, but since 1996 was more commonly used for the institution as well. From 1991 to 2003 the m ...

Endemic Fauna Of New Zealand
Endemism is the state of a species being found in a single defined geographic location, such as an island, state, nation, country or other defined zone; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. For example, the Cape sugarbird is found exclusively in southwestern South Africa and is therefore said to be ''endemic'' to that particular part of the world. An endemic species can be also be referred to as an ''endemism'' or in scientific literature as an ''endemite''. For example '' Cytisus aeolicus'' is an endemite of the Italian flora. '' Adzharia renschi'' was once believed to be an endemite of the Caucasus, but it was later discovered to be a non-indigenous species from South America belonging to a different genus. The extreme opposite of an endemic species is one with a cosmopolitan distribution, having a global or widespread range. A rare alternative term for a species that is endemic is "precinctive", which applies to s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
