Diversity of the Lepidoptera in the World

(DLW)

Ahmet Ömer Koçak & Muhabbet Kemal Koçak

A project supported by the CESAÓ

DLW is an independent project supported by the Cesa from the year of 1998 on. The aim of this project is preparing a comprehensive database program on especially Old World Lepidoptera taxa for the scientific surveys of the Cesa researchers. It comprises, at present, 63590 valid species, as well as 22743 subspecies in 8632 valid genera, subgenera or sections, and 934 family group names among the 95901 taxa. Original references, synonyms, vernacular names, distributional information of 5611 localities, provinces or states in the world; important ecological information (food-plants, habitats, phenology, generations, etc), bibliography, etc. are also included. All the states, regions, provinces, and collecting locatities were given as codes for the researches carried out by the Cesa. Taxonomical evaluations of the authors are also made in the Cesa’s program for the first the in the world, using the DLW program (See). Complementarily, thousands original digital images taken in nature, original distributional maps of the taxa are also available in the Cesa archives.
