Endothenia Quadrimaculana
''Endothenia quadrimaculana'' is a moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found from northern and central Europe to Siberia and south-eastern Russia, Mongolia and China. Subspecies ''nubilana'' is found in North America. The wingspan is 18–22 mm.The ground colour of the forewings is light brown with small dark brown spots along the costal edge, a square brown spot in the middle of the wing and an inward-curved brown cross-band at the tip. The hindwings are light brown. Dissection of the genitalia is necessary to determine ''Endothenia'' species with certainty. In France and Switzerland, there are two generations per year. Adults are on wing in May and June and again in August and September. The larvae feed on '' Mentha spicata'', ''Mentha arvensis'', ''Lamium album'', ''Stachys palustris'', ''Stachys arvensis'', ''Stachys recta'' and ''Symphytum officinale''. In France also on ''Stachys affinis ''Stachys affinis'', commonly called crosne, Chinese artichoke, Japanese a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Henri De Peyerimhoff (entomologist)
Henri de Peyerimhoff de Fontenelle full name Marie Antoine Hercule Henri de Peyerimhoff (27 July 1838 – 9 April 1877) was a magistrate and entomologist from Alsace, France. He is known for his work with smaller moths. Life Henri de Peyerimhoff de Fontenelle was born on 27 July 1838 in Colmar, Alsace. His parents were Jean-Baptiste Hercule de Peyerimhoff de Fontenelle (1809–1890), mayor of Colmar, and Marie-Rose Béchelé.

His father was head of the Colmar municipal council and did much to modernise the city. Henri de Peyerimhoff became a magistrate and was also an entomologist who specialized in microlepidoptera (smaller moths). Peyerimhoff married Marie George on 15 November 1870 in Strasbourg.

Lamium Album
''Lamium album'', commonly called white nettle or white dead-nettle, is a flowering plant in the family Lamiaceae. It is native throughout Europe and Asia, growing in a variety of habitats from open grassland to woodland, generally on moist, fertile soils. Description ''L. album'' is an herbaceous perennial plant growing to tall, with green, four-angled stems. The leaves are long and broad, triangular with a rounded base, softly hairy, and with a serrated margin and a petiole up to long; like many other members of the Lamiaceae, they appear superficially similar to those of the stinging nettle (''Urtica dioica'') but do not sting, hence the common name "dead-nettle". The flowers are white, produced in whorls ('verticillasters') on the upper part of the stem, the individual flowers long. The flowers are visited by many types of insects, but mostly by long-tongued insects, like bees. Distribution ''L. album'' is native to Eurasia, from Ireland in the West to Japan in the Ea ...

Moths Of Japan
Moths are a paraphyletic group of insects that includes all members of the order Lepidoptera that are not butterflies, with moths making up the vast majority of the order. There are thought to be approximately 160,000 species of moth, many of which have yet to be described. Most species of moth are nocturnal, but there are also crepuscular and diurnal species. Differences between butterflies and moths While the butterflies form a monophyletic group, the moths, comprising the rest of the Lepidoptera, do not. Many attempts have been made to group the superfamilies of the Lepidoptera into natural groups, most of which fail because one of the two groups is not monophyletic: Microlepidoptera and Macrolepidoptera, Heterocera and Rhopalocera, Jugatae and Frenatae, Monotrysia and Ditrysia.Scoble, MJ 1995.

Symphytum Officinale
''Symphytum officinale'' is a perennial flowering plant in the family Boraginaceae. Along with thirty four other species of ''Symphytum'', it is known as comfrey. To differentiate it from other members of the genus ''Symphytum'', this species is known as common comfrey or true comfrey. Other English names include Quaker comfrey, cultivated comfrey, boneset, knitbone, consound, and slippery-root. It is native to Europe, growing in damp, grassy places. It is locally frequent throughout Ireland and Britain on river banks and ditches. It occurs elsewhere, including North America, as an introduced species and sometimes a weed. The flowers are mostly visited by bumblebees. Internal or long-term topical use of comfrey is discouraged due to its strong potential to cause liver toxicity. History Over centuries, comfrey was cultivated in Asia, Europe, and the United Kingdom as a vegetable and herbal medicine. Its early common names, ''knitbone'' or ''boneset'', reflect its historical use b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Stachys Recta
''Stachys recta'', commonly known as stiff hedgenettle or perennial yellow-woundwort, is herbaceous perennial plant of the family Lamiaceae. Etymology The generic epithet is derived from the Greek word σταχυς (''stachys''), meaning "an ear of grain",Umberto Quattrocchi. 2000. ''CRC World Dictionary of Plant Names'' volume I, page 91. CRC Press: Boca Raton; New York; Washington, DC;, USA. London, UK. (set). (see ''External links'' below). and refers to the fact that the inflorescence is often a spike. The specific epithet comes from the Latin ''recta'', meaning "straight", also refers to the shape of the inflorescence. Description The biological form of ''S. recta'' is hemicryptophyte scapose, as its overwintering buds are situated just below the soil surface and the floral axis is more or less erect with a few leaves. The plant reaches on average in height.Pignatti S. - Flora d'Italia – Edagricole – 1982. Vol. III, pag. 467 It has thick, woody roots. The stems a ...
