KEY WORDS Lepidoptera! inventory1 tropical rainforesti species diversity1 species richness! insect fauna Introduction The primary lowland forests in the Southeast Asian (SEA) tropics are characterized by the extremely species-rich biodiversity (Whitmore 1998). Arthropod assemblages comprise the main part of the biodiversity in tropical rainforests (Erwin 1982, Wilson 1992). Many inventory studies have been done focusing on various arthropod taxa to reveal the species-richness of arthropod assemblages in SEA tropical rainforests (e.g. Holloway & lntachat 2003). The butterfly is one of the most studied taxonomic groups in arthropods in the SEA region; the accumulated information on the taxonomy and geographic distribution were organized by Tsukada & Nishiyama (1980), Yata & Morishita (1981), Aoki et al.

Reveal Submitted: 08 Dec. 2013, Accepted: 15 Mar. 2014 H. D. Jayasinghe1,2, S. S. 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.

A reminder that this year’s LepSoc Africa Conference will be held in Knysna on Sat 16 and Sun 17 November. Please contact Dave Edge ([email protected]) to confirm your attendance. For those of you looking for accommodation in Knysna, Dave forwarded the flowing link: Places to stay in Knysna We have found, at recent LepSoc Africa Conferences, that presentation of the annual reports of various LSA officers takes up most, if not all, of the three-hours that have traditionally been allocated to the Annual General Meeting. At last year’s conference in Hermannsburg, there was dissatisfaction about the time available for general discussion among members present at the meeting. This year, we are going to do it differently! Using the approach that has been adopted by the Entomological Society of Southern Africa (Entsocsa), the reports of office bearers will be circulated to the entire LepSoc Africa membership at least two weeks before the AGM. At the AGM, a condensed summary of the various reports will be presented for ratification, following which there will be a brief discussion. Significant issues, that require resolution at the AGM, should be raised by LSA members prior to the meeting and the salient points submitted for discussion under Matters Arising. Missing Links… A few people pointed out that a couple of the links in July’s newsletter didn’t work. I’ve corrected this below: Colotis ungemachi Arnold Schultze Steve Collins noted that, in July’s newsletter, I’d correctly captioned a photo from Sudheer Kommana as Baliochila hildegarda, but that this species is not found in Ghana as I’d indicated.

Much of our current under- standing is based primarily on detailed morphological observations made 50–70 years ago. However, the family and its putative four subfamilies and two tribes, have rarely been subjected to rigorous phylogenetic analysis. Here we present results based on an analysis of molecular characters used to reconstruct the phylogeny of the Pieridae in order to infer higher-level classification above the generic level and patterns of historical biogeography.

    Life History Notes on the Yellow Albatross, Appias Paulina Ega (Cramer, [1777]) Lepidoptera: Pieridae - Wesley Jenkinson

    Life history notes on the Yellow Albatross, Appias paulina ega (Cramer, [1777]) Lepidoptera: Pieridae - Wesley Jenkinson This butterfly species, previously known as the Common Albatross, appears to have limited detail published about its biology and migratory habits. It is encountered along much of coastal and sub-coastal eastern Queensland and other states. Migratory adults can be located well outside the breeding areas, particularly after widespread rainfall has occurred. In Southeast Queensland it is seasonally common and the adults can be found in a varied range of habitats including suburban gardens. In this region the breeding habitat is chiefly dry rainforest and vine scrub where the host trees Yellow Tulipwood (Drypetes deplanchei) are growing. This is the main host species utilised for breeding with several other possible host species requiring confirmation (Moss 2010). Adults often fly with two other similar looking Pieridae species, the Caper White (Belenois java) and the Caper Gull (Cepora perimale) and they can be confused with them. The male could also be easily confused with the well-known exotic Cabbage White butterfly (Pieris rapae), which is much smaller in size, has different wing markings and slower flight behaviour. Adult flight is rapid and strong especially if they have been disturbed. They are typically observed flying around forest canopies and margins during sunny periods. The males also frequently visit hilltops from late morning until mid afternoon. I have observed that, while feeding at flowers, their wings can be partially open at various angles (between approx 20 to 45 degrees). Both sexes can also be observed imbibing moisture from puddles (‘mud puddling’) during extremely hot conditions.

    Small Grass Yellow (Eurema smilax) The upper side of the wings (not shown) is plain yellow with a broad black terminal band on the forewing and small black markings at the end of the veins on the hindwing. The underside of the wings of the wet season form is almost completely yellow with a few small brown spots. Photo: Euan Moore. The underside of the wings of the dry season form has larger brown spots and patches. The large brown patch near the tip of the forewing indicates this is a female. Males are peppered with small spots. The upper wing is the same as the wet season form. Photo: Euan Moore. Other Common Names: Bordered Sulphur, Australian Yellow Butterfly. Family of Butterflies: Pieridae (Whites and Yellows) Wingspan: 30mm – 33mm. Local Records: The nearest reported records are from around Woodend, Kyneton, Inglewood and Dunolly. There are anecdotal records from Castlemaine. 1 Butterflies of the Mount Alexander Shire – A Castlemaine Field Naturalists Club publication Distribution: The Australian distribution is shown by records in the Atlas of Living Australia where you can zoom in on the map to see Victorian and local distributions. Larval Host Plants: These are members of the genus Senna which occur most commonly in drier areas of inland and northern Australia where most breeding occurs. Some Senna spp. occur in the drier regions of North-west Victoria so it is possible that this species may breed in that region. Adult Flight Times in Victoria (from Field, 2013): This species is most frequently seen in Victoria during October and March/April.
