Ringbound pictorial boards. Condition: New. First Edition. Well illustrated, slim quarto, pp 89, thick board covers, ringbound, a very good copy. [Includes 35 pages, each showing up to 35 specimens in colour. Designed to be used in conjunction with the descriptions on the GLOBIZ website. This is Part 1 of three planned Guides. The main group in this Part is the Family Pyralidae, which together with the Crambidae forms the Superfamily Pyraloidea. Members of the Pyralidae are often referred to as 'pyralids', and likewise 'crambids' for the Crambidae. The term 'pyraloid' used often here refers to both pyralids and crambids ie. all the members of the Superfamily Pyraloidea. A minor component of this Guide are 295 species of Thyridoidea. Many of those featured here do not occur in Borneo, but nearby. Borneo is a geographical entity, a very large island shared between several nations. The political entities into which it is divided are as follows: the southern part of the island belongs to the provinces of Indonesia which together make up Kalimantan. Sabah and Sarawak are the two East Malaysian states of the Federation of Malaysia. Sandwiched between them is the sovereign sultanate of Brunei. Most of the collecting and curating effort on Bornean pyraloids in recent decades has been done in Sabah, particularly on and around Mount Kinabalu. It is hoped this Guide will stimulate study in other parts of the island.].

Quarto, laminated boards, spirally bound,89 pp.,colour photographs. Borneo is a geographical entity, a very large island shared between several nations. Most of the collecting and curating effort on Bornean pyraloids in recent decades has been done in Sabah, particularly on and around Mount Kinabalu. It is hoped this Guide will stimulate study in other parts of the island. This is Part 1 of three planned guides. The main group in this part is the family Pyralidae, which together with the Crambidae forms the superfamily Pyraloidea. Members of the Pyralidae are often referred to as âpyralidsâ, and likewise âcrambidsâ for the Crambidae. The term âpyraloidâ used often here refers to both pyralids and crambids ie. all the members of the superfamily Pyraloidea. Part 2 will cover the subfamilies Midilinae; Schoenobiinae; Acentropinae; Crambinae; Scopariinae; Glaphyriinae; Evergestinae; Noordinae and Odontiinae. Part 3 will cover the Spilomelinae; Wurthiinae; Pyraustinae; Cybalomiinae and Heliothelinae.

Condition: New. 89, 1077 col photos. A4. HB. NEW. . This is Part 1 of 3 and covers the Thyridoidea and the Pyraloidea: Pyralidae sensu Regier, J. O. et al 2012. (Parts 2 & 3 will deal with the Crambidae). The core of Part 1 is a set of 35 high quality colour plates each with a capacity of 35 half images of adult moths. Opposite each plate is a page of corresponding legends. The book is ring-bound to allow it to lie flat on a laboratory bench when identifying specimens. The plates are semi-matt to cut down on reflections.This is an illustrated guide, not a taxonomic monograph. Identification is on the basis of external features only. Many images of morphotypes at or near the species level are included to give a starting point for those wishing to explore further the fauna of Borneo.Includes - Thyrididae: 168 named species, 127 unnamed 'species' (the latter make up 43% of the total of 295 taxa.); Pyralidae: 286 named species, 379 unnamed 'species' (the latter making up 60% of the total of 665 taxa). Subfamilies included are the Galleriinae, Chrysauginae, Pyralinae, Epipaschiinae and Phycitinae. [9789838121620].

Hardcover. Condition: New. 82 pp. Includes: illustrations, index, bibliography. "The Preliminary Guide Part 2 is a comprehensive resource dedicated to the Family Crambidae of the Superfamily Pyraloidea, offering detailed information and around 940 images of about 838 taxa from global locations. This guide is an invaluable tool for understanding the biology, ecology, and distribution of these species, with insights from 751 recorded in Borneo, and a selection from Peninsular Malaysia and other regions.".

Condition: New. 82, 33 col plates. A4. HB. NEW. . The second of three volumes covering species historically treated as 'Pyralidae,' but now divided between the superfamily Thyridoidea and the families Pyralidae and Crambidae in the superfamily Pyraloidea. This volume encompasses all subfamilies in the Crambidae, except for the latter half of the Spilomelinae genera, starting with Glycythyma, which will be covered in Vol. Ill (expected in 2025). 452 named species and 386 unnamed morphotypes are included, encompassing all subfamilies of the Crambidae, except for the latter half of the Spilomelinae as mentioned above. Includes subfamilies Acentropinae, Crambinae, Cybalomiinae, Glaphyriinae, Hoploscopinae, Lathrotelinae, Musotiminae, Odontiinae, Pyraustinae, Schoenobiinae, Scopariinae and Spilomelinae. A significant proportion of the species included are economically important pests of rice, fruit, and stored products. This is an illustrated guide, not a taxonomic monograph. Identification is on the basis of external features only. Many images of morphotypes at or near the species level are included to give a starting point for those wishing to explore further the fauna of Borneo.Each Plate has rows of five images across and seven rows down (35 images per Plate). Plate Legends give the current scientific name, the author's name and the year in which the species was described, followed by a variety of data about the taxon and specimen. There are also 6 plates of live specimens showing resting postures. [9789838122085].

This is the second of three volumes covering species historically treated as 'Pyralidae', but now divided between the fuperfamily Thyridoidea and the families Pyralidae and Crambidae in the superfamily Pyraloidea. This volume encompasses all subfamilies in the Crambidae, except for the latter half of the Spilomelinae genera. In this volume the authors document 452 named species and 386 unnamed morphotypes. The volume does not serve as formal monograph describing species and revising genera. Instead, it acts as preliminary guide with the aim of encouraging the taxonomic community to undertake the formal descriptions and revisions. A significant proportion of the species included are economically important pests of rice, fruit, and stored products.
