Caterpillars were sampled every month from January 2017 – June 2017. A total of 3,434 specimens were identified to 86 species, 55 genera, and 19 families and 37 morphospecies. The most abundant species was Euremablanda (n=1,280). The highest diversity was found in 500 meters above mean sea level (H'= 2.66) and the similarity of caterpillar that occurred in different elevation was low. Keywords: caterpillars, elevation, diversity, KhaoYai National Park. Introduction Khao Yai National Park is a Thailand's first national park, it is the third largest national park in Thailand. Situated mainly in Nakhon Ratchasima Province. Khao Yai is part of Dong Phayayen-Khao Yai Forest Complex, a world heritage site declared by UNESCO. In at least five different forest type, Khao Yai National Park has complex ecosystem with richness of plant and animal such as mammal bird reptile and insects.

Previous work has suggested that these nipples increase light transmittance and reduce the eye glare of moths that are inactive during the day. This work builds on but goes further than earlier analyses suggesting a functional role for these structures including, for the first time, an explanation of why moths are attracted to UV light. Using a phylogenetic approach and 3D optical modelling, we show empirically that these arrays have been independently lost from different groups of moths and butterflies and vary within families. We find differences in the shape of nipples between nocturnal and diurnal species, and that anti-glow reflectance levels are different at different wave-lengths, a result thereby contradicting the currently accepted theory of eye glow for predator avoidance.

  • Systematic List of the Noctuoidea of Europe (Notodontidae, Nolidae, Arctiidae, Lymantriidae, Erebidae, Micronoctuidae, and Noctuidae)
    Esperiana Buchreihe zur Entomologie Bd. 11: 93-205 Schwanfeld, 29. Juni 2005 ISBN 3-938249-01-3 Systematic List of the Noctuoidea of Europe (Notodontidae, Nolidae, Arctiidae, Lymantriidae, Erebidae, Micronoctuidae, and Noctuidae) Michael FIBIGER and Hermann H. HACKER Superfamily NOCTUOIDEA LATREILLE, 1809 Remarks to Classification In the European List of Noctuidae (FIBIGER and HACKER, 1991) we refrained from writing a justification for subdividing the family into subfamilies and tribes. Our understanding of the classification of the family has progressed since then, but only to some extent therefore several paraphyletic or even polyphyletic groupings still remain in the Noctuidae (s.l.) and in the other families dealt with here. Most of the tribes listed here are monophyletic and we believe that most of them will stand the test of time. In groups where research is lasting, we refer to the latest knowledge available. For example the family Noctuidae has now been divided into three families, the Noctuidae, Micronoctuidae and Erebidae, these corresponding roughly to the groups previously called “quadrifid“ and “trifid“ noctuids. Ongoing research, however, suggests that the arctiid clade might be derived from within the Erebidae (WELLER and MITCHELL, pers. com.). Other important results have been published in the last 13 years, some of which are: KITCHING and RAWLINS (in KRISTENSEN, 1998); KITCHING and YELA (1999); SPEIDEL, FÄNGER and NAUMANN (1996); SPEIDEL and NAUMANN (1996); POOLE (1995, and his catalogue from 1989); the North American Moths of North America (MONA) book series: LAFONTAINE and POOLE (1991), POOLE (1995), LAFONTAINE (1998, 2004); BECK (1996, 1999, 2000); the volumes of the book series Noctuidae Europaeae (1990-2003); and many papers in Esperiana.

Although such faunistic studies were conducted extensively in the region during the first decade of the early 20th century, there are a few new taxa, taxonomic revisions, misidentifications, and misspellings, which should be documented. We examined 1,276 species in 652 genera, 59 subfamilies, and 15 families. We propose 4 new combinations, namely Arichanna refracta Inoue, 1978 stat. nov.; Psyra matsumurai Bastelberger, 1909 stat. nov.; Olene baibarana (Matsumura, 1927) comb. nov.; and Cerynia usuguronis (Matsumura, 1927) comb. nov.. The noctuid Blepharita alpestris Chang, 1991 is regarded as a junior synonym of Mamestra brassicae (Linnaeus, 1758) (syn. nov.). The geometrids Palaseomystis falcataria (Moore, 1867 [1868]), Venusia megaspilata (Warren, 1895), and Gandaritis whitelyi (Butler, 1878) and the erebid Ericeia elongata Prout, 1929 are newly recorded in the fauna of Taiwan.

About 134 families comprising 157, 000 species of living Lepidoptera, including the butterflies has been documented globally [2], holding around 17% of the world's known insect fauna. Estimates, however, suggest more species in the order [3]. Naturalists for convenience categorised moths into two informal groups, the macro moths having larger physical size and recency in evolution and micro moths [4] that are smaller in size and primitive in origin .

At the same time, as a closely related species of Lymantria dispar L. (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), it is also a potential quarantine pest. In the present study, specific primers were designed for identification ofL. xylina based on the COI barcoding sequence between L. xylina and four other common forest pests. A 569-bp fragment was successfully amplified from 40L. xylina from five geographical populations in four Chinese provinces. In addition, even through the analysis came from five highly diverse populations of L. xylina, the genetic distances ranged from 0.001 to 0.031. The neighbor-joining tree showed that the species from Hubei and Chongqing were clustered within a distinct group. Key words: Lymantria dispar, molecular detection, genetic diversity, haplotypes The casuarina moth, Lymantria xylina Swinhoe (Lepidoptera: egg mass, consisting of about 100–1,500 eggs (Shen et al.

  • BIONOTES Vol. 10(1) Pp. 5 to 15. March 2008. MOTHS RECORDED
    BIONOTES Vol. 10(1) pp. 5 to 15. March 2008. MOTHS RECORDED FROM DIFFERENT ELEVATIONS IN NAINITAL DISTRICT, KUMAON HIMALAYA, INDIA by PETER SMETACEK INTRODUCTION The present paper is based on observations carried out over thirty years in the Bhimtal valley (29 degrees 20’40”N 79 degrees 30”16”E) of Nainital district, and for one year at two other nearby locations in the same district, Ranibagh (400 m) and Gagar (2400 m). The intention is to clarify the altitudinal distribution of the moths found in this area, which is the outermost range of the Himalaya in this area. When the observations began during the 1970s, Bhimtal was a small town with few electric lights. Today, it is a well lit town with several industries, government offices, etc. All of these are splendidly lit up at night. It is no wonder, therefore, that many more moths were attracted to mercury vapour light during the 1970s than are attracted nowadays. The present paper is based on my collection, as well as material in Collection Hauenstein and Collection Hacker, both in Germany, some specimens in the Natural History Museum, London and in the University Museum, Oxford, U.K.. The list of 887 species is by no means exhaustive, for more than 350 species of moths in my collection await identification. However, there is sufficient material to add considerably to the present knowledge on the subject. Some species included in the present list have been reported in my earlier publications and some by other workers. Those that are being reported from this area for the first time, which have previously only been recorded from either further east (Sikkim, Nepal) or further west (Himachal Pradesh, Garhwal) have a notation “new record” against their names.
