Depressaria
''Depressaria'' is a moth genus of the superfamily Gelechioidea. It is the type genus of subfamily Depressariinae, which is often – particularly in older treatments – considered a distinct family Depressariidae or included in the Elachistidae, but actually seems to belong in the Oecophoridae.Pitkin & Jenkins (2004), FE (2009), and see references in Savela (2003) The genus' type species is the parsnip moth. Its scientific name has been much confused for about 200 years. Adrian Hardy Haworth, on establishing the genus ''Depressaria'' in his 1811 issues of ''Lepidoptera Britannica'', called the eventual type species ''Phalaena heraclei'', an unjustified emendation of ''P.'' (''Tortrix'') ''heracliana''. In this he followed such entomologists of his time as Anders Jahan Retzius, who in 1783 had believed the parsnip moth to be a species originally described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758. But in fact, this was a misidentification; Linnaeus' moth was actually the one known to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Parsnip Moth
The parsnip moth or parsnip webworm (''Depressaria radiella'') is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in most of Europe, except Portugal and most of the Balkan Peninsula. This species has also been introduced into New Zealand. The wingspan is . Adults are on wing from August to (after overwintering in a sheltered place) May of the following year. There is one generation per year. The larvae feed on '' Heracleum sphondylium'', ''Pastinaca sativa'' and ''Apium nodiflorum''. They feed on the flowers and developing seeds, defending their territory by enclosing an umbel in silk, while safely metabolizing the ingested furocoumarins. Pupation takes place in the main stem of the food plant. Taxonomy ''Depressaria radiella'' is the type species of the genus ''Depressaria''. Its scientific name has been much confused for about 200 years. A.H.

Depressariinae
__NOTOC__ The Depressariinae – sometimes spelled "Depressiinae" in error – are a subfamily of moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. Like their relatives therein, their exact relationships are not yet very well resolved. It has been considered part of family Elachistidae ''sensu lato'' or included in an expanded Oecophoridae.Scoble (1995), ABRS (2008), FE (2009), Wikispecies (24 March 2010), and see references in Savela (2009) In modern classifications they are treated as the distinct gelechioid family Depressariidae. As regards subdivisions, the Amphisbatinae are often held to be as close to the Depressariinae as to be included there, in particular if the latter are raised to full family rank, but also otherwise (as a tribe Amphisbatini in the Depressariinae). If Depressariinae are treated as oecophorid subfamily, it is more common to include the group around '' Cryptolechia'', which is sometimes (especially in older arrangements) separated as tribe ''Cryptolechiini'' ...

Entomologists
Entomology () is the scientific study of insects, a branch of zoology. In the past the term "insect" was less specific, and historically the definition of entomology would also include the study of animals in other arthropod groups, such as arachnids, myriapods, and crustaceans. This wider meaning may still be encountered in informal use. Like several of the other fields that are categorized within zoology, entomology is a taxon-based category; any form of scientific study in which there is a focus on insect-related inquiries is, by definition, entomology. Entomology therefore overlaps with a cross-section of topics as diverse as molecular genetics, behavior, neuroscience Neuroscience is the scientific study of the nervous system (the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system), its functions and disorders. It is a multidisciplinary science that combines physiology, anatomy, molecular biology, development ..., biomechanics, biochemistry, systematics, physiology, develo ...
