Michael Fibiger
Summary: A new noctuid moth, Ammoconia aholai Fibiger, sp. n. is described from Cyprus. The species is probably endemic to the Island of Cyprus and a sister species to the newly described A. reisseri Ronkay & Varga, 1984 from the island Crete, Greece.
Revision der Gattung Baorisa Moore, 1882 (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
G. Behounek, W. Speidel und H. Thöny
Zusammenfassung: Die Gattung Baorisa Moore, 1882 galt bisher als monotypisch mit der einzigen Art hieroglyphica Moore, 1882. Unsere Untersuchungen ergaben, daß Baorisa zumindest drei weitere, allopatrische Arten enthält, die hier beschrieben werden: B. philippina sp. n. von den Philippinen, B. sulawesiana sp. n. von Sulawesi and B. floresiana sp. n. von Flores. Der Holotypus von Baorisa hieroglyphica Moore, 1882, ist im ZMB, Berlin, nicht mehr auffindbar. Wir hinterlegen einen Neotypus für dieses Taxon im ZMB.
Abstract: The genus Baorisa Moore, 1882 was hitherto regarded to be monotypic with the single species hieroglyphica Moore, 1882. According to the present investigations, Baorisa includes at least three further species. These three allopatric species are described here: B. philippina sp. n. from the Philippines, B. sulawesiana sp. n. from Sulawesi and B. floresiana sp. n. from Flores. The holotype of Baorisa hieroglyphica Moore, 1882 could not be found in ZMB, Berlin. We deposit a neotype for this taxon in ZMB, Berlin.
Fauna und Biogeographie der Noctuidae des makaronesischen Archipels
(Lepidoptera)
H. Hacker und W. Schmitz
Abstract: The present work is primarily an overall survey of the 145 Noctuidae-species from the Macaronesian Archipelagos observed up till now . From the Canary Islands there are: 123, Madeira: 50 and Azores: 28 species registered. It also contains numerous data not hitherto published. 13 species observed on Fuerteventura are mentioned for the first time:
Acontia biskrensis Oberthür, 1887
Anumeta hilgerti Rothschild, 1909
Armada panaceorum (Ménétriés, 1849)
Autophila rosea (Staudinger, 1888)
Cerocala algiriae Oberthür, 1876
Drasteria cf. philippina Austaut, 1880
Hecatera corsica (Rambur, 1832)
Metopoceras kneuckeri (Rebel, 1903)
Ozarba heliastis (Hampson, 1902)
Parexarnis photophila (Guenée, 1852)
Platyperigea oberthuri Rothschild, 1913
Powellinia boetica (Boisduval, 1830)
Thalerastria diaphora (Staudinger, 1879)
Proof of the two species: Prodotis stolida (Fabricius, 1775) and Polytela cliens (Felder & Rogenhofer, 1874) not noted by Pinker & Bacallado (1982) was already published by Schmitz (1989, 1990). The faunistic data are complemented by details of preference of habitat, times of flight and the biology of the particular species, as well as literature sources with depictions of moths and genitals. A new genus combination is established for 3 species:
Mniotype fratellum (Pinker, 1965) comb. n.
Mniotype schumacheri (Rebel, 1917) comb. n.
Mniotype usurpatrix (Rebel, 1914) comb. n.
Finally the species spectrum of the particular islands is explained and classified with regard to their biogeographic structure.

Orthopteroide Insekten aus Nord-Pakistan
Ergebnisse der Forschungsreise von H. Hacker und L. Weigert im Herbst 1988
Sigfrid Ingrisch
Abstract: Orthopteroid insects from northern Pakistan. - A list of 20 Ensifera, 30 Caelifera and 6 Mantodea collected with a light trap in September - October 1988 by H. Hacker and L. Weigert in northern Pakistan is given. Two species of Tettigonioidea, Trigonocorypha brevinota n. sp. (Phaneropteridae) and Iranusa grisea n. sp. (Tettigoniidae) are new to science. Trigonocorypha brevinota n. sp. is similar to T. tihamae Uvarov 1952. It differs by a shorter pronotum, more slender tegmen, which are narrowed already in the apical third instead of in the apical fourth, and by less projecting hind wings (figs 1-7). Iranusa grisea n. sp. is similar to I. bampura Uvarov 1942, it differs in the shape of the female subgenital plate and by a shorter ovipositor (figs 8-10). Loxoblemmus hamulifer Chopard 1969 becomes a new synonym of Loxoblemmus animae Bhowmik 1967. The differences between Oecanthus pellucens Scopoli 1763 and O. indicus Saussure 1878 are outlined. Both species differ in the apex of the male epiphallus (figs 11-19) and in stridulation (figs 20-25). The main frequency of stridulation of O. pellucens is between 3.5 - 4.0 kHz, that of O. indicus at about 3.0 kHz; the repetition rate of syllables per second is 44 - 47 in O. pellucens and 55 - 61 in O. indicus (both at 27°C). The variability of the dark band on the hindwing of Sphingonotus kashmirensis (Uvarov 1925) is demonstrated (figs 28-29).

Definition der Gattung Harita Moore, 1882, Wiederbeschreibung der Typenart Harita rectilinea Moore, 1882 und Bemerkungen zur Synonymie (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae: Hypeninae)
Martin Lödl
Abstract: This paper is the first step to a revision of the genus Harita Moore, 1882. The genus is defined, the type species is rediscribed and figured, its synonymy is given. A punctation of characteristic features of Harita is given in German and English. The genus is proposed to be a relative of the genera Hypena Schrank, 1802 and Dichromia Guenée, 1854
A provisional checklist of the 8 presently known species is given. The following new combinations are proposed: Harita demeysti Hulstaert, 1924 [Hypena ]; Harita strigifera Warren, 1913 [Hypena] (possibly a new synonym of Harita belinda Butler, 1879); Harita kashmirica Warren, 1913 [Hypena] (possibly a new synonym of Harita belinda Butler, 1879); Harita confusa Leech, 1900 [Hypena].
Beitrag zur Noctuidenfauna der Wüstenregion Südmarokkos: Das Artenspektrum in der gemäßigten Jahreszeit November bis April (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
Josef de Freina und Gottfried Behounek
Abstract: The South Moroccan noctuid fauna existing during the lower temperature period november till april is dealt with. Recently by the first author in the course of serveral weeks 1989 - 1991 collected material forms the basis of newly acquired knownledge about this eremic noctuid-group.
A systematical list of collected species and the evaluation in zoogeographical respects of the numbered species is given. Most of them are purely endemic species with eremial distribution character. However, the South Moroccan fauna is also influenced by mediterranean species as well as ubiquist and migrating African elements.
Besides the first proof of Iambia incerta (Rothschild, 1913), Paradrina casearia (Staudinger, 1900), Pseudomecia lithoxylea (A. Bang-Haas, 1912) and Agrotis sardzeana Brandt, 1941 for the Moroccan area and North Africa in the present paper the following nomenclatural changes are postulated:
Drasteria philippina (Austaut, 1880) stat n.
Scythocentropus inquinatus mercedes Pinker stat. n.
Mniotype judaica (Staudinger, 1898) comb. n. (ex genere Luperina Boisduval, 1829 ad genus Mniotype Franclemont, 1941)
Mniotype hackeri sp. n.
Pseudomecia lithoxylea (A. Bang-Haas, 1912) = Sidemia beduina Wiltshire, 1948 syn. n.
Metopoceras duseutrei (Oberthür, 1922) stat. rev.
Discestra (Cardepia) affinis Rothschild, 1913 stat. rest.
