Evergestis is a genus of butterflies from the family of the Crambidae ( Crambidae ).
features
The end ( frons ) has no protrusion, it is flat or rounded. The labial palps are directed obliquely upwards. The third segment is short, stretched or directed downwards and partially hidden by the scales of the second segment. The maxillary palps protrude quite a bit and have a variable distal tuft of scales. The eyes are large, there are ocelles . The proboscis is well developed. The antennae of the males are somewhat thickened and ciliate, in the females they are thread-shaped. The front wings are pointed and have a variable drawing. The wing leading edge is almost straight, the wing outer edge is sloping. The hind wings are large and unmarked or they have an inconspicuous small discal patch. Most of the species are not variable as far as the wing markings are concerned.
In the males, the tegumen is small and spherical. The blades are elongated and relatively narrow. They have no attachments, only occasionally a small, toothed clip organ is formed. Uncus and Gnathos are cylindrical or wavy and long and slender. The juxta is elongated and trough-shaped. The phallus is cranked. On the distal part there are usually dense groups of cornuti, and ventrally - near a pocket-like structure - a pair of brush-like pillows.
In the females, the oviscapter lobes are well developed. They are membranous and bristled. The Apophyses posteriores are slender and "T" -shaped. The anterior apophyses are stronger and branched or thickened medially . The antrum is funnel-shaped. The ductus bursae is moderately long to long and often wide. The corpus bursae is egg-shaped, pear-shaped or almost spherical and has two large, spiky signs.
distribution
The genus is mainly found in the Holarctic . A few species are also found in India , Africa, and South America .
biology
The caterpillars feed on cruciferous vegetables (Brassicaceae). The adult caterpillars overwinter in a solid cocoon in the ground and pupate in spring. In Northern Europe the moths usually fly in one generation during the summer months. In southern Europe , many species - with the exception of those that colonize mountainous regions - are bivoltine . In North Africa , most species were caught in the fall, but it is very likely that there will still be a spring generation. An exception is Evergestis isatidalis , which flies in the winter months. The caterpillars of Evergestis forficalis can appear to a small extent in Europe as pests on cruciferous crops. Some species are also known as pests in North America.
Systematics
There are over 30 species in Europe, around 8 of them in Central Europe. The type species of the genus is Pyralis margaritalis [ Denis & Schiffermüller ], 1775. Today , Pyralis margaritalis is considered a synonym for Evergestis extimalis .
