Rajapaksha1, C. de Alwis1 1Butterfly Conservation Society of Sri Lanka, 762/A, Yatihena, Malwana, Sri Lanka 2 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Larval food plants (LFPs) of Sri Lankan butterflies are poorly documented in the historical literature and there is a great need to identify LFPs in conservation perspectives. Therefore, the current study was designed and carried out during the past decade. A list of LFPs for 207 butterfly species (Super family Papilionoidea) of Sri Lanka is presented based on local studies and includes 785 plant-butterfly combinations and 480 plant species. Many of these combinations are reported for the first time in Sri Lanka. The impact of introducing new plants on the dynamics of abundance and distribution of butterflies, the possibility of butterflies being pests on crops, and observations of LFPs of rare butterfly species, are discussed. This information is crucial for the conservation management of the butterfly fauna in Sri Lanka. Key words: conservation, crops, larval food plants (LFPs), pests, plant-butterfly combination. Introduction Butterflies go through complete metamorphosis 1949). As all herbivorous insects show some and have two stages of food consumtion.

  • Interventionist Approach to Environment Conservation
    INTERVENTIONIST APPROACH TO ENVIRONMENT CONSERVATION THROUGH PROMOTING BUTTERFLY FARMING IN THE GREAT GANGETIC PLAIN Manbeer Kaur Assistant Professor, Department of Zoology B.A.M.Khalsa College Garhshankar, District Hoshiarpur, Punjab, India ABSTRACT Innovative strategies for environment conservation are the clarion call for environmentalists, botanists, zoologists and scientists from various allied fields. Butterfly farming has caught the fancy of many of the newer experiementative steps being taken to reclaim the lost bounty of a fast depleting Nature resource. Over the last 15 years, the number of commercial butterfly farms has grown and exposure on the internet connects butterfly raisers and buyers. People are thrilled to discover they can purchase live butterflies to release at any special event. They are also purchased for special fund raisers, and community events. A butterfly farmer must provide the correct host plant to provide feed for the growing larvae. Space, equipment, time and labor besides a place to breed or mate are essentialities for the “gravid” females. They may need a place or a container to lay their eggs alongwith a place set up for larvae to eat and grow. A butterfly farmer, helped by a knowledgeable entomological expert must have flexibility, patience, determination, and be willing to work hard to learn the business, promote and expand it. This paper studies the opportunities available, the reasons why they have not been accessed by Indian farmers as also the approach to be utilized to popularize this innovative intervention towards environmental conservation in the Great Gangetic Plain. Key Words :Butterfly Farming , Community Participative , Conservation , Environment , Zoological Interventions. I.
