epicephala obovatella is a moth of the gracillariidae family .

it is found in the warm temperate to subtropical regions of japan and in taiwan .

the wingspan is 7.5 – 11 mm .

the forewings are brown with a narrow white band on the dorsum from the base to 2/3 of the entire length .

there are three pairs of narrow white bands beginning at the costal and dorsal margin near 1/2 to 3/4 length of the wing and extending obliquely toward the wing apex , terminating before reaching mid-width of the wing .

there is a narrow silver band with metallic reflection extending from the costa to the dorsum at 5/6 length and the distal 1/6 is orange-brown with a black dot centrally , franked by a short white band near the dorsum .

the distal end is fringed with a narrow white band .

the hindwings are brown .

the larvae feed on the seeds of glochidion obovatum and glochidion rubrum .

assessment of the diversity and species specificity of the mutualistic association between epicephala moths and glochidion trees .

epicephala moths are involved in obligate mutualisms with their phyllanthaceae hosts , in which the female moths assure pollination and , in return , their progeny develop by consuming the seeds . ecological , molecular and geographical data suggest that the genus includes several hundred species , but the majority remains to be formally described . here we revise the japanese species of epicephala meyrick , 1880 . in addition to two previously named species , seven species are newly described : epicephala anthophilia sp . n . , epicephala lanceolatella sp . n . , epicephala perplexa sp . n . , epicephala obovatella sp . n . , epicephala corruptrix sp . n . , epicephala parasitica sp . n . and epicephala nudilingua sp . n . the first four are species involved in obligate pollination mutualism , while the fifth is a pollinating seed parasite and the last two are derived non - pollinating seed parasites of herbaceous phyllanthus . each of the nine japanese epicephela species is specialized to a single plant species in the genera glochidion , breynia or phyllanthus , except for epicephala obovatella and epicephala corruptrix that each utilizes two closely related glochidion species . considerable variations are found in pollination and oviposition behaviors among species , which are reflected in their proboscis and ovipositor morphologies , respectively . molecular phylogeny indicated that there have been repeated transitions in oviposition mode during the diversification of epicephala , which were accompanied by changes in ovipositor morphology , as suggested by a correlation analysis . keys to species are provided .

the well - known fig - fig wasp and yucca - yucca moth mutualisms are classic examples of obligate mutualisms that have been shaped by millions of years of coevolution . pollination systems involving obligate seed parasites are only expected to evolve under rare circumstances where their positive effects are not swamped by abundant co - pollinators and heavy costs resulting from seed destruction . here , we show that , in phyllantheae , specialization to pollination by epicephala moths evolved at least five times , involving more than 500 phyllantheae species in this obligate association . active pollination behaviour evolved once in epicephala , 10 - 20 myr after the initial divergence of their host plants . the pollinating epicephala moths thus radiated on an already - diverged host lineage and successively colonized new phyllantheae hosts , thereby giving rise to repeated independent evolution of the specialized pollination system in phyllantheae . the present evolutionary success of this association rests entirely upon active pollination by epicephala , making this a distinct example of an evolutionary key innovation . overall , our findings provide a clear empirical demonstration of how a combination of evolutionary innovation and partner shifts facilitates the spread of mutualism in a coevolving species interaction .

the obligate mutualisms between flowering plants and their seed - parasitic pollinators constitute fascinating examples of interspecific mutualisms , which are often characterized by high levels of species diversity and reciprocal species specificity . the diversification in these mutualisms has been thought to occur through simultaneous speciation of the partners , mediated by tight reciprocal adaptation ; however , recent studies cast doubt over this general view . in this study , we examine the diversity and species specificity of epicephala moths ( gracillariidae ) that pollinate glochidion trees ( phyllanthaceae ) , using analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear gene sequences . phylogenetic analysis of epicephala moths associated with five glochidion species in japan and taiwan reveal six genetically isolated species that are also distinguishable by male genital morphology : ( i ) two species specific to single host species ( g . acuminatum and g . zeylanicum , respectively ) ; ( ii ) two species that coexist on g . lanceolatum ; and ( iii ) two species that share two , closely - related parapatric hosts ( g . obovatum and g . rubrum ) . statistical analysis shows that the two species associated with g . lanceolatum are not sister species , indicating the colonization of novel glochidion host in at least one lineage . behavioural observations suggest that all six species possess the actively - pollinating habit , thus none of the studied species has become a nonmutualistic ' cheater ' that exploits the benefit resulting from pollination by other species . our results parallel recent findings in ecologically similar associations , namely the fig - fig wasp and yucca - yucca moth mutualisms , and contribute to a more general understanding of the factors that determine ecological and evolutionary outcomes in these mutualisms .

the remarkably high level of partner specificity is a hallmark feature of the leafflower–leafflower moth mutualism . together with the fig–fig wasp and yucca–yucca moth systems , obligate pollination mutualisms provide some of the best examples of highly species - specific plant–insect associations . however , the evolutionary processes underlying these patterns are poorly understood . the high degree of specificity in pollinating seed parasites is often regarded as the fortuitous result of specialization in their ancestors because these insects are derived from endophytic herbivores that are themselves highly host - specific . this chapter focuses on the comparison of the level of host specificity in epicephala to those of purely parasitic gracillariid relatives as a test of whether mutualism reinforces partner specificity . when interpreted with what is known in the fig and yucca systems , such an analysis serves as a useful approach to determine how partner specificity is shaped in coevolved mutualisms .

* obligate mutualisms involving actively pollinating seed predators are among the most remarkable insect - plant relationships known , yet almost nothing is known about the chemistry of pollinator attraction in these systems . the extreme species specificity observed in these mutualisms may be maintained by specific chemical compounds through ' private channels ' . here , we tested this hypothesis using the monoecious breynia vitis - idaea and its host - specific epicephala pollinator as a model . * headspace samples were collected from both male and female flowers of the host . gas chromatography with electroantennographic detection ( gc - ead ) , coupled gas chromatography - mass spectrometry , and olfactometer bioassays were used to identify the floral compounds acting as the pollinator attractant . * male and female flowers of b . vitis - idaea produced similar sets of general floral compounds , but in different ratios , and male flowers emitted significantly more scent than female flowers . a mixture of 2 - phenylethyl alcohol and 2 - phenylacetonitrile , the two most abundant compounds in male flowers , was as attractive to female moths as the male flower sample , although the individual compounds were slightly less attractive when tested separately . * data on the floral scent signals mediating obligate mutualisms involving active pollination are still very limited . we show that system - specific chemistry is not necessary for efficient host location by exclusive pollinators in these tightly coevolved mutualisms .

scientists aim to describe a single ' tree of life ' that reflects the evolutionary relationships of living things . however , evolutionary relationships are a matter of ongoing discovery , and there are different opinions about how living things should be grouped and named . eol reflects these differences by supporting several different scientific ' classifications ' . some species have been named more than once . such duplicates are listed under synonyms . eol also provides support for common names which may vary across regions as well as languages .
