the following Project titles: (1) Diversity
of the Lepidoptera in the World (DLW); (2) Researches on the animal- plant interaction: Foodplants of
the Lepidoptera (FL); (3)

Abstract: Lepidoptera of the
Continent Africa –I.
Cent. ent. Stud., Memoirs 5: ca. 2400pp. in preparation, expected in 2008. This study, as the first attempt
of the series “Lepidoptera of the Continent
Africa –I.” is based
upon the Info-System of the Cesa, comprising
the whole Continent of Africa and the partial
faunas of 53 States. It is
composed of about 2400 pages in 58 Chapters and Addenda. The authors of the chapters are listed separately.
In its category, this publication may be considered as a comprehensive reference, in spite of the submitted faunal lists of the African States
are preliminary ones. Totally 21885 species group taxa are
listed together here for the
first time with their valid scientific
names, authors and the dates
of the publication, synonyms, and geographical ranges with codes. The
larval foodplants of about 1500 species/subspecies are given with their
scientific names. Totally 5867 geographical codes are presented
according to their states. Selected 1354 publications on African Lepidoptera are listed according
to the authors and date
of publications. The readers may find brief
zoogeographical evaluation
of the Lepidoptera faunas of the African states, some complementary information on Dr. Emin Pasha,
an Ottoman naturalist in Central Africa, as well as
the patronymic
geographical and orientational scientific names in African Lepidoptera, Turkish vernacular names among African Lepidoptera, some results of the Taxonomical Evaluations of the Taxonomists (TET Project), and the Mapping
Projects of the Cesa in the Chapters
1- For the time being, this study
reflects the African part of the aimed dimensions
of the worldwide scientific projects of the Cesa. Certainly,
the present results are far from to be completed,
just as in case of every other foreign
scientific studies. Within the coming
years, the detailed, more complete and comprehensive faunal studies of some important African states will be prepared and published by the authors. |
