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.

  • Biological Role of Marigold (Tagetes Erecta L.) in Habitat Manipulation and Sustenance of Natural Enemy Populations in Upland Rice
    Arthropods, 2021, 10(3): 66-81 Article Biological role of marigold (Tagetes erecta L.) in habitat manipulation and sustenance of natural enemy populations in upland rice Kari Iamba, Chen Teksep Department of Agriculture, PNG University of Natural Resources and Environment, Kokopo, Papua New Guinea E-mail: [email protected] Received 27 May 2021; Accepted 30 June 2021; Published 1 September 2021 Abstract The re-designing of agricultural systems in integrated pest management (IPM) has been aimed at reducing the use of synthetic pesticides to manage pests. In conservation biological control, the cropping habitat is manipulated to provide vital resources that are required by natural enemies to suppress pest populations. Habitat manipulation is an example of conservation biological control where non-host plants are incorporated in a crop field to provide floral resources, refuges and alternate hosts for natural enemies. We tested the Mexican marigold (Tagetes erecta Linnaeus) in upland rice plots to attract natural enemies. The paradigm was to manipulate the rice habitat with marigold plants to provide vital resources that are needed by natural enemies to suppress pest populations. From the four marigold treatments applied, plots that had only T. erecta (T2) as barrier plants attracted the highest population of natural enemy complex (i.e. Apanteles sp., Telenomus sp., Oxypes javanus and Coelophora inaequalis). Conversely, the population of pest complex (i.e. Spodoptera litura, Sirpophaga incertulas and Leptocorisa acuta) was significantly low under T2. Plots that received a treatment combination of T. erecta and its extract (T4) had the second highest population natural enemies. Both control (T1) and T.

  • India's Largest Butterfly
    India's Largest Butterfly 09 July, 2020 | GS-III | | Biodiversity | Butterfly | Wild life India's Largest Butterfly Recently, a Himalayan butterfly known as Golden Birdwing (Troides aeacus) has been discovered as India’s largest butterfly after 88 years. It has replaced an unknown specimen which a British army officer Brigadier Evans had recorded in 1932. Discovery: The female was recorded from Didihat in Uttarakhand, the male was from the Wankhar Butterfly Museum in Shillong, Meghalaya. Characteristics: With a wingspan of 194 mm, the female of the species is marginally larger than the Southern Birdwing (190 mm). Earlier, the largest Indian butterfly that was recorded in 1932 was an individual of the Southern Birdwing (Troides minos), which was then treated as a subspecies of the Common Birdwing (Troides helena). However, the specimen that Evans measured was unknown and no other butterfly measured as much as the 190 mm that he recorded. The male Golden Birdwing is much smaller at 106 mm. Measurement: The only measurement used in the study of Lepidoptera is wingspan in which butterflies are measured from the wing base to the tip. Butterfly Butterflies are insects from the order Lepidoptera of phylum Arthropoda which also includes moths. Adult butterflies have large, often brightly coloured wings, and conspicuous, fluttering flight. Significance: Rich Biodiversity: Abundance of butterflies in any area represents the rich biodiversity. Indicator Species: The butterfly acts as an indicator species. An indicator species provides information on the overall condition of the ecosystem and of other species in that ecosystem. They reflect the quality and changes in environmental conditions as well as aspects of community composition.

  • Two New Species of Butterfly
    Two New Species of Butterfly drishtiias.com/printpdf/two-new-species-of-butterfly Why in News Recently, the lepidopterists have discovered the two new species of butterfly i.e. Striped Hairstreak and Elusive Prince in Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh. At present, India has 1,327 species of butterfly as compared to 1,318 species in 2015. A lepidopterist is a person who specialises in studying butterflies and moths. Key Points Striped Hairstreak: Scientific Name: Yamamotozephyrus kwangtugenesis Discovery: It is found in Vijaynagar village of Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh, bordering Myanmar. It was a subject of interest for the lepidopterists as its genus is diversified into several genera (i.e. sub-divisions) and thus, difficult to trace. Habitat: It was first recorded in Hainan province of China. It is also found in North America, from the Rocky Mountains 1/3 Elusive Prince: Scientific Name: Rohana tonkiniana Discovery: It is found in Miao subdivision situated on the periphery of the Namdapha National Park. In India only a male specimen of the Elusive Prince was found. Initially it was considered as a variant of the Black Prince, but the study revealed that it is different and not recorded in India before. Habitat: It was first recorded in Tonkin in north Vietnam. The Rohana Genus: It has been represented in India by two species — the Black Prince (Rohana parisatis) and the Brown Prince (Rohana parvata). Significance for Arunachal Pradesh: These discoveries from Arunachal Pradesh indicate the rich biodiversity of the State. The government thus needs to focus on helping volunteers or citizen scientists by providing the support needed.
