Notes on the distribution and phenology of Gluphisia rurea (Fabricius, 1787) in the Iberian Peninsula (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae)

Gluphisia rurea (Fabricius, 1787) occurs in the Iberian Peninsula in two discrete nuclei: one in the Basque–Cantabrian zone and the other centred on Catalonia. While the western population shows a preference for the colline zone, below 200 m in alti- tude, the eastern one exhibits a clear preference...

Description
Summary:Gluphisia rurea (Fabricius, 1787) occurs in the Iberian Peninsula in two discrete nuclei: one in the Basque–Cantabrian zone and the other centred on Catalonia. While the western population shows a preference for the colline zone, below 200 m in alti- tude, the eastern one exhibits a clear preference for the montane zone, at elevations ranging from 800 to 1,400 m. With respect to the phenology of G. rurea in the Iberian Peninsula, the data collected in this article confirm that it is a bivoltine species, with a first generation from mid-April to early July, and a second from early July to the middle of September.
