	abstract = {Adult fruit piercing moths (Noctuidae) are common pests of ripening fruit over much of tropical and subtropical Southeast Asia, Australia, and the western Pacific islands. Eudocima fullonia (Clerck), a target for classical biological control, occurs in that region including Papua New Guinea where it is not a pest and where it is thought to be controlled by natural enemies. Surveys conducted in Papua New Guinea revealed that two abundant egg parasitoids, Telenomus lucullus (Nixon) and Ooencyrtus sp. (Papilionis, species- group, Encyrtidae) were contributing up to 95\% mortality of moth eggs. The host specificity of both parasitoids was studied in the laboratory by exposing them to eggs of related Noctuidae. T. lucullus was found to be specific to Eudocima spp. in the laboratory but Ooencyrtus sp. oviposited and developed on several non-target noctuid species in the presence of the moth host{\textquoteright}s food plants. T. lucullus and Ooencyrtus sp. were assessed as adequately host specific for release in Samoa, Tonga, Fiji and the Cook islands. However, the parasioids were not assessed with the nontarget E. iridescens (T.P. Lucas), a rare species from northern Australia unavailable for testing. The two egg parasitoids were released on Samoa, Tonga, Fiji, and the Cook Islands but were not released in Australia due to the inability to demonstrate adequate host specificity. T. lucullus and Ooencyrtus sp. both became established in Tonga and Fiji but only T. lucullus became established in Samoa and the Cook islands. After establishment of parasitoids increased levels of egg parasitism and declines in the abundance of target eggs occurred in Samoa and Tonga, and decreases in the abundance of the moths and its damage to fruit were observed in Fiji and Cook Islands. The methods for conducting surveys, host specificity testing and field evaluations are described.},

	abstract = {This paper presents results of a recent (1997-1999) survey of terrestrial arthropods of Midway Atoll and lists 546 species identified from 1891 to 1999. The last published compilation (Suehiro, 1960) listed 221 species, and the first complete listing from the 1923 Tanager Expedition published 38 species (Bryan er al., 1926). The increasing number of arthropod species reflected in these surveys is likely related to the increase in plant species present, increased contact between Midway and the outside world by means of surface and air vessels, and increased effort on the part of the U. S. Fish \& Wildlife Service to inventory the arthropad fauna. The percentage of the fauna composed Of native species (1 7\%) is small and some of these species were not recollected during the present survey. Also, a large number (33\%) of historically recorded alien species were not recollected. More recently introduced immigrants may have displaced some of them. The present list includes 205 new island records from Midway including 29 new records for the Hawaiian archipelago. Continued introductions resulting from frequent visits to Midway by uninspected air and surface vessels will result in serious pest problems there. Some observations are included on insects now present on Midway that may become serious pests if introduced to the main Hawaiian islands. Two species in particular, Pmraefia pryeri (Janson) and Scudderia parowe Griffini should be monitored. Other concerns that should be addressed include ants, vespid wasps, and soil arthropods. A full bibliography of Midway terrestrial arthropod references is also included.},

Many of these taxonomic changes have already been incorporated in Nishida (1994), but this paper provides the background. This paper builds on recent reviews of Sphingidae (Riotte 1986), Noctuoidea (Riotte 1991) and Pyraloidea (Munroe 1989). The recent field guide to Pyraloidea and Microlepidoptera by Robinson et al. (1994), although not intended to cover the Hawaiian fauna, is very useful for family-level identifications and includes many species that occur in Hawaii. },

Biocontrol agents have been introduced to control herbivorous insects, weeds, dung, molluscs, livestock pests, mosquitoes and household pests. In all, 104 species of insects, two predatory mites, three snails, one nematode and four vertebrates have been intentionally introduced to Guam for the purposes of controlling 41 pest species. Of the insect species, 34 established, 48 did not establish, 5 established temporarily and the status of the rest is not known. Additional introductions were made to other islands in the Marianas. Among the pests most successfully controlled by biological agents were Achatina fulica, Aleurocanthus spiniferus, Aleurothrixus floccosus, Aspidiotus destructor, Brontispa mariana, B. palauensis, Epilachna vigintisexpunctata philippinensis, Nipaecoccus viridis, Erionota thrax, Penicillaria jocosatrix, and Spodoptera litura. Two weeds, Lantana camara and Chromolaena odorata have been successfully controlled by herbivorous insects. Most attempts at biological control in the Marianas have been transfers of species successfully introduced elsewhere. Most species introduced from temperate climatic zones failed to establish. Species which established on Hawaii [USA] frequently established on Guam as well. Reasons for failure to establish were varied. Against Homopteran pests, 58\% of the introduced natural enemies established. The establishment rate against Lepidoptera and Diptera was low.},

Soon thereafter, the species was independently collected by the authors and others from other localities on the islands of Maui, Kauai, Oahu, and Hawaii (C. Campora, B. Kumashiro, C. Jacobsen pers. comm.), and tentatively identified as Oraesia excavata (Butler) (Erebidae: Calpinae: Calpini), which was confirmed by M. Pogue (2010). To our knowledge, this is the first record of establishment of O. excavata outside of Asia, and certainly the first record of establishment in the USA. Widespread surveys have not taken place, so the full extent of the invasion within Hawaii remains unknown. However, the species has been collected from widely dispersed sites on the islands of Kauai, Oahu, Maui, and Hawaii, and eradication is not considered a possibility.},

	abstract = {This report is part of the {\textquotedblleft}Marianas Expedition Wildlife Survey 2010{\textquotedblright} (MEWS 2010), a U.S. Fish \& Wildlife Service (USFWS) project funded by the Department of Defense - U.S. Marines and is tasked to gather natural resource information on fish and wildlife in the Mariana Islands. This information is required by federal regulations to properly determine the potential impacts that will occur due to the shifting of significant military resources from Okinawa to the Territory of Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. As part of this military build-up, Pagan is under consideration as a live fire training area. This report gives the results of a terrestrial arthropod survey conducted by USFWS and NAVPAC personnel on Pagan in the month of July 2010 and gives details on significant findings resulting from material collected on that survey. In addition, a full checklist of terrestrial arthropods known from Pagan Island is given based on the current survey material as well as previous published records. An appendix gives a full bibliography of articles dealing with Pagan arthropods. Staff from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Pacific Islands Office, and the U.S. Navy conducted collections of terrestrial arthropods from 9-21 July 2010 using a variety of collecting methods including Malaise flight intercept traps, yellow water pan traps, pitfall traps, peanut butter traps for ants, aerial sweep netting, aquatic dip netting, aspirating, and hand collections. Thousands of terrestrial arthropod specimens resulted from these collections, which were sorted by the collectors to order (to class for non-insects) and delivered to the Bishop Museum for identification. A team of entomologists at the Bishop Museum identified a total of 288 different taxa of terrestrial arthropods based on the survey, which included 228 new island records for Pagan (doubling the number of arthropods previously recorded from Pagan) bringing the total number of terrestrial arthropod species known from Pagan to 416. The full list of identified arthropods is given in Appendix II and includes all previously published terrestrial arthropod records for Pagan as well as the new records identified during this study. To put the arthropod fauna into a proper historical context in order to better understand their possible biological status on the island (e.g., endemic, native, nonindigenous), a history of human habitation as well as previous collecting expeditions is given. The vast majority of identified terrestrial arthropods are most likely nonindigenous, having arrived on Pagan via a variety of mechanisms including transport by humans, supply shipments, and commerce. Verification of true status requires study of the known distributions and potential vagility of each species, which was outside the scope of this report. Although the island has undergone numerous geophysical and human land use changes resulting in what we are calling a synanthropic arthropod fauna, there are still pockets of native arthropods that survive. Eight endemic species are recorded, three of them are new to science. In addition, one new genus was found. The littoral zone has been a neglected area for previous collectors, and a number of new marine and littoral faunal records have resulted from collecting during this survey. None of the arthropods identified are any threat to the megapode or fruit bat populations on the island. The crazy ant, Anoplolepis gracilipes, may pose a potential threat to food resources of the bat and megapodes if the populations on the island ever form what are called supercolonies. Their population levels now are large but not dangerous.},

	abstract = {Most moths use ears solely to detect the echolocation calls of hunting, insectivorous bats and evoke evasive flight manoeuvres. This singularity of purpose predicts that this sensoribehavioural network will regress if the selective force that originally maintained it is removed. We tested this with noctuid moths from the islands of Tahiti and Moorea, sites where bats have never existed and where an earlier study demonstrated that the ears of endemic species resemble those of adventives although partially reduced in sensitivity. To determine if these moths still express the anti-bat defensive behaviour of acoustic startle response (ASR) we compared the nocturnal flight times of six endemic to six adventive species in the presence and absence of artificial bat echolocation sounds. Whereas all of the adventive species reduced their flight times when exposed to ultrasound, only one of the six endemic species did so. These differences were significant when tested using a phylogenetically based pairwise comparison and when comparing effect sizes. We conclude that the absence of bats in this habitat has caused the neural circuitry that normally controls the ASR behaviour in bat-exposed moths to become decoupled from the functionally vestigial ears of endemic Tahitian moths.},

In mid-December, collections were made of a wolf spider (Lycosa sp.). the lygaeid bug (Nysius wekiuicola), and a noctuid caterpillar (Agrotis sp.). The Agrotis caterpillars were freeze tolerant. They had quite high supercooling points (SCP = -4.8{\textdegree}C) and survived a 24 hr frozen exposure at -6.2{\textdegree}C. The site of nucleation is apparently not the hemolymph, as the hemolymph SCP was -15.1{\textdegree}C. The spiders and wekiu bugs were not freeze tolerant. The SCPs of the spiders (X = -5.8{\textdegree}C) were not particularly low, but these highly mobile arthropods may be able to seek thermally buffered microhabitats when the need arises. The wekiu bugs showed greater supercooling abilities, with some individuals supercooling to -18{\textdegree}C, although the SCPs were quite variable. The subzero temperature adaptations of the arthropods from such an isolated subtropical site are remarkable adaptive capabilities.},

	publisher = {University of California, Berkeley},
	abstract = {Despite the unique biological opportunities presented by the island chains of French Polynesia, the biology of the area is poorly understood. Moths are among the many taxa with undocumented biodiversity. There is biological interest in documenting which moth species are present and how they interact with the plant community. I collected 161 macrolepidopteran moths at a range of elevations on the island of Moorea, French Polynesia to explore their diversity and study their role as pollinators. I assembled a pollen library of 27 common plant species and attempted to match these pollens with pollen grains that were removed from moths. Although identification to species was not possible with all of the moths that were collected, I grouped them into morphospecies by wing pattern; 35 morphospecies were found. There were more species found at higher elevations. The abundance of some species changed with elevation. The most abundant morphospecies at all sites were non-endemics that are widely distributed throughout the South Pacific. Many moths were found to feed on the invasive Lantana camara and some fed on plants in the Myrtaceae. This study suggests that the moth fauna on Moorea is dominated by non-endemics, but that there may be some relictual endemics, especially at the higher elevations. It also suggests that invasive plants have a considerable impact on the moth fauna. Future research on Moorean moths should focus on accomplishing a more comprehensive survey of moth biodiversity and examining the interaction of the moth fauna with native and introduced plants.},
