RECENT LITERATURE ON LEPIDOPTERA
Under this heading are included abstracts of papers and books of interest to lepidopterists. The world's literature is searched systematically, and it is intended that every work on Lepidoptera published after 1946 will be noticed here. Papers of only local interest and papers from this Journal are listed without abstract. Readers, not in North America, interested in assisting with the abstracting, are invited to write Dr. P. F. Bellinger (Department of Biological Sciences, San Fernando Valley State College, Northridge, California, U.S.A.). Abstractor's initials are as follows:
[P.B.]—P. F. Bellinger [W.H.] — W. Hackman [N.O.] — N. S. Obraztsov
[I.C.]—I. F. B. Common [T.I.]—Taro Iwase [C.R.] — C. L. Remington

Lenek, Oskar, "Eine gleichzeitige Zucht von Boarmia repandata L. und Boarmia maculata bastelbergi Hirschke" [in German]. Zeitschr. wiener ent. Ges., 46: 127-130. 1962. Describes adults of B. m. bastelbergi & names 2 "forms." Compares larvae & pupae of these spp. [P. B.]
de Lesse, H., "Speciation et variation chromosomique chez les lepidopteres rhopalo-ceres" [in French]. Ann. Sci. not., Zoo/., ser.12, 2: 1-223, 222 figs. 1960. This important work on the speciation and the chromosomal variation in the Rhopalo-cera is divided in three parts. In the first the author studies the number of chromosomes in a large number of species. After indications on technique, a list of chromosome numbers for 174 species is given. The indication of these *
numbers is, for a great part, published here for the first time. The second part is devoted to the classification of Erebia of the tyndarus group. The author has published these last years a number of papers about this subject and the conclusions are exposed here. The species are the following: E. calcarius (n=8), E. tyndarus (n— 10), E. cassioides (n=10), E. nivalis (n=ll), E. callias (n = 15), E. h. hispanica (n = 2,5), E. h. rondoui (n = 24), E. i. iranica (n = 51), E. i. transcaucasica (n = ca.52). The geographic distributions of these arc given, together with comparisons between classifications from study of the genitalia and from the number of chromosomes. In the third part, comparison is made between cytological results given by the E. tyndarus group and that obtained in other Rhopalocera, chiefly in the genus Lysandra. In this genus the European and Near East species and some natural hybrids inside the L. coridon group are studied. At the end, a discussion on the variation of chromosome number and its interpretation is given. The study of the number of chromosomes is useful in taxonomy (it is a pity that the author uses the unusual term "taxinomie") in the Rhopalocera and in very rare cases is the exception. Owing to such cases, this study notes it is important to know the systematics of the group considered. See also Jour. Lepid. Soc, 14: 147, 1961. [P. V.]
