Observations on Insects Associated Withacacia
Journal of Tropical Forest Science 9(4): 561 -564 (1997) OBSERVATIONS ON INSECTS ASSOCIATED WITH ACACIA MANGIUM IN PENINSULAR MALAYSIA J. Intachat & L.G. Kirton Forest Research Institute Malaysia, Kepong, 52109 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Acacia mangium Willd. is presently the most widely planted fast-growing exotic tree species for forest plantations in Peninsular Malaysia. This legume is native to the Molucca Islands of eastern Indonesia, southwestern New Guine smala d alan area of northwestern Queensland in Australia. It was first planted in Sabah and then in the peninsula in the late 1970s. Plantations of A. mangium, like other monocultures, are exposed to risks of introduced indigenoud an s insect pests genera.A l overvie mangium. A f wo pests gives i Hutacharery nb n (1993). However, some of the pests mentioned in the review were not encountered in the present study, and vice versa.

The Microlepidopterous Fauna of Sri Lanka, Formerly Ceylon, Is Famous

In spite of this, there does not exist a survey of its fauna — except a single contribution, by Lord Walsingham, in Moore's "Lepidoptera of Ceylon", already almost a hundred years old, and a number of small papers and stray descriptions of new species, in various journals. The authors of these papers were Walker, Zeller, Lord Walsingham and a few other classics — until, starting with 1905, a flood of new descriptions 4 ZOOLOGISCHE VERHANDELINGEN I93 (1982) and records from India and Ceylon appeared, all by the hand of Edward Meyrick. He was almost the single specialist of these faunas, until his death in 1938. To this great Lepidopterist we chiefly owe our knowledge of all groups of Microlepidoptera of Sri Lanka. After his death this information stopped abruptly. In the later years great changes have taken place in the tropical countries. We are now facing, alas, the disastrously quick destruction of natural bio- topes, especially by the reckless liquidation of the tropical forests. -

On Some Indian Tortricidae (Lepidoptera)
ON SOME INDIAN TORTRICIDAE (LEPIDOPTERA). By A. DIAKONOFF~ Amsterdam, Netherlands. (3rd Communication on Indo-Malayan and Papuan Microlepidoptera.) By the courtesy of Mr. J. C. M. Gardner, Systematic Entomologist of the Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun, I received a, small collec tion of 'l'ortricidae from that Institute, :tor identificatiQD. As all speci mens have been bred and bear notes on the foodplants, I think it worth while to give a list of th em. The species concerned show striking poIV' .. pbagous habits. oJ Epagoge retractana Wlk. U. P. Dehra Dun, New Forest. 12 and 26. viii. 1933; 24. ix. 1934.

Cacoecia micacaeana Wlk. This is a difficult species to deal with, because of its variability in colouring, especially in the male and of a certain plasticity in the wing shape. Meyrick used the shape of the forewings as a specific character and described some species, which prove to be simply varieties of one and the same species, O. micacaeana Wlk. In the present lot three forms are represented, rather differing in colouring and wing shape. Nevertheless I regard them as belonging to the same species, because the genital apparatus is identical and the shape and markings in fore wings show gradual transitions from one to another. -

Box 155, Bumthang, Bhutan Abstract Twenty-five species of Tortricidae from Bhutan are discussed, 14 of which are recorded for the first time: Acleris perfundana Kuznetsov, 1962, Archips limatus Razowski, 1977, Chirapsina expleta (Meyrick, 1923), Clepsis humana (Meyrick, 1912), Adoxophyes privatana (Walker, 1863), Lumaria probolias (Meyrick, 1907), Meridemis bathymorpha Diakonoff, 1976, Isodemis illiberalis Meyrick, 1918, Lobesia ambigua Diakonoff, 1954, Metendothenia ordospina Jirasuttayaporn & Pinkeaw, 2018, Gibberifera glaciata (Meyrick, 1907), Crocidosema plebejana Zeller, 1847, Lepteucosma charassuncus Razowski, 2006, and Microsarotis bicincta Diakonoff, 1976. Females of Chirapsina expleta and Epiblema charadrias Diakonoff, 1977 are described and illustrated for the first time. Nine new species are described: Eupoecilia jakarana, sp. nov., E. gedui, sp. nov., Lumaria phuntschona, sp. nov., Borneogena trashiyana, sp. nov., Bactra cophinana, sp. nov., Penthostola subnigrantis, sp. nov., M. brunnofasciana, sp. nov., Peridaedala nigrifasciana, sp. nov., and Epiblema albulusana, sp. nov.
