Summary

Descripción general del contenido del recurso.

Os Hedylidae constituem um grupo de lepidópteros exclusivamente neotropical com 35 espécies conhecidas em um gênero, Macrosoma Hübner, 1818. Antes classificados entre as mariposas Geometridae, agora são considerados um grupo basal e noturno de borboletas. Foram realizadas coletas mensais de janeiro a dezembro de 2004 no dossel de uma floresta em área de terra-firme, utilizando um lençol branco iluminado por luz mista de mercúrio e outra luz negra UV-BLB, instalado a 40 m de altura em uma torre. As coletas foram realizadas das 18:00 às 6:00 h do dia seguinte. Foram coletados 55 exemplares , a maioria machos, somente dois exemplares fêmeas pertencentes a nove espécies, uma delas provavelmente nova, a saber: M. hedylaria Warren (1894), M. bahiata (Felder & Rogenhofer, 1875), M. conifera (Warren, 1897), M. heliconiaria (Guenée, 1857), M. hyacinthina (Warren, 1905), M. klagesi (Prout, 1916), M. lucivittata (Walker, 1863) M. nigrimacula (Warren, 1897) e Macrosoma sp. Os Hedylidae foram mais abundantes na estação mais chuvosa, dezembro a maio, com 65,5% dos espécimes coletados. O horário de maior atividade foi entre 19:00 e 22 h com 80% dos espécimes coletados.<br>The Hedylidae is a lepidopteran group exclusively neotropical, with 35 known species in the genus Macrosoma Hübner, 1818. The family was classified as Geometridae moths but presently they are considered a basal and nocturnal group of butterflies. The collections were carried out monthly from January to December of 2004, during three nights of lunar transition third quarter moon/new moon from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. The insects were collected over a vertical white sheet illuminated by a 250 watt mixed light and a 20 watt black-light (BLB) lamp installed in a tower at a height of 40 m. We collected 53 male specimens and two female specimens, belonging to nine species of which one was probably new to science: M. hedylaria Warren (1894), M. bahiata (Felder & Rogenhofer, 1875), M. conifera (Warren, 1897), M. heliconiaria (Guenée, 1857), M. hyacinthina (Warren, 1905), M. klagesi (Prout, 1916), M. lucivittata (Walker, 1863) M. nigrimacula (Warren, 1897) e Macrosoma sp. The hedylids were more abundant in the rainy season, December to May, with 65,5% of the collected specimens. They were collected mainly from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm with 80% of the collected specimens.
