Eupithecia Eremiata
''Eupithecia'' is the largest genus of moths of the family Geometridae, and the namesake and type genus of tribe Eupitheciini. Species in the genus are, like those of other genera in the tribe, commonly known as pugs. The genus is highly speciose, with over 1400 species, and members of the genus are present in most of the world with exception of Australasia. Roughly a quarter of described ''Eupithecia'' species occur in the Neotropical realm, where they have an especially high species diversity in the montane rain forests of the Andes. The genus includes a few agricultural pest species, such as the currant pug moth, '' Eupithecia assimilata'', which is a pest on hops, and the cloaked pug moth, '' Eupithecia abietaria'', which is a cone pest in spruce seed orchards. Adult specimens of ''Eupithecia'' are typically small, often between 12 and 35 mm, with muted colours, and display a large amount of uniformity between species. As a result, identification of a specimen as part o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Eupithecia Innotata
''Eupithecia innotata'', the angle-barred pug, is a moth of the family Geometridae. The species was Species description, first described by Johann Siegfried Hufnagel in 1767. It ranges from Spain in the west to western Siberia and Central Asia in the east. There are three forms found in the British Isles: * ''E. innotata sensu stricto'' (angle-barred pug) is found only on the east and south-east coasts * f. ''fraxinata'' (ash pug) is widely distributed * rare f. ''tamarisciata'' (tamarisk pug) The forewings are generally dark brown or grey with few distinguishing marks apart from a small white Tornus (insect anatomy), tornal spot which may not be present on the frequent melanism, melanic forms. They are crossed by darker oblique lines, which are angled on the front margin; the submarginal line is white and irregular, especially at each end.The wingspan is 18–24 mm. Riley, A.M. and Prior, G.

Foliage
A leaf (: leaves) is a principal appendage of the stem of a vascular plant, usually borne laterally above ground and specialized for photosynthesis. Leaves are collectively called foliage, as in "autumn foliage", while the leaves, stem, flower, and fruit collectively form the shoot system. In most leaves, the primary photosynthetic tissue is the palisade mesophyll and is located on the upper side of the blade or lamina of the leaf, but in some species, including the mature foliage of ''Eucalyptus'', palisade mesophyll is present on both sides and the leaves are said to be isobilateral. The leaf is an integral part of the stem system, and most leaves are flattened and have distinct upper ( adaxial) and lower ( abaxial) surfaces that differ in color, hairiness, the number of stomata (pores that intake and output gases), the amount and structure of epicuticular wax, and other features. Leaves are mostly green in color due to the presence of a compound called chlorophyll ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Eupithecia Accurata
''Eupithecia accurata'' is a moth in the family Geometridae. It is found in Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, northern Iran and Kazakhstan. Adult specimens have light grey fore- and hindwings with checked fringes on both pairs of wings. The forewings have a dark and slanted central band marked with two light transverse lines and a sprinkling of light scales. The basal portion of the wing has some inconspicuous sprinkling of darker scales, followed by a blackish, partially faded extra-basal line. The wing's outer area is brownish. The hindwings have a darkened inner margin and a narrow, faded, brownish transverse patch near the lower half of the outer margin. The shape of the forewings was described by Otto Staudinger Otto Staudinger (2 May 1830 – 13 October 1900) was a German entomologist and a natural history dealer considered one of the largest in the world specialising in the collection and sale of insects to museums, scientific institutions, and indi ... as similar to those ...
