The Pieridae (Lepidoptera: Rhopalocera) Fauna of Sarawak: Systematics and Distribution Boon Shiek Leng Program Sains dan Pengurusan Sumber Haiwan Fakulti Sains dan Teknologi Sumber Universiti Malaysia Sarawak ABSTRACT As shown by voucher specimens deposited at the Sarawak Museum, studies on the butterflies from the family Pieridae in Sarawak began during the 1800's. The present study was based on voucher specimens deposited in the Sarawak Museum, Sarawak Forest Corporation Research Centre and Unimas Museum. These represent specimens collected from 1893 to 2004. A total of 728 specimens were examined and evaluated. A systematic account of the species and distribution maps are provided .A total of 36 species of Pieridae from nine genera in the subfamily Pierinae and four genera in the subfamily Coliadinae is now known to occur in Sarawak. As revealed by this study, eleven Bornean species, namely E. alitha gradiens, D. blanca nausicaa, D. pasithoe angustifascia, A. albina albina, A. pandione whiteheadi, A. nepheles dilulior, U. cynis pryeri, P. nishiyamai alpha, C. iudith bela, A. lyncida balambangensis and A. paulina insularis are not known to occur in Sarawak. This study also reveals that seven of the Pierid species that has been documented as to occur only in North Borneo (Sabah) prior to this, is now also reported from Sarawak. These are D. henningia pandemia, D cinerascen, P. cornelia, P. vollenhovi, E. lacleola, E. sari sodalis and E. lominia nabalua. The butterflies of the family Pieridae are distributed throughout different types of forests in Sarawak and are mostly found in peat swamp forest, mixed-dipterocarp forest and secondary forest. 20 families of hosplants for the butterflies of the family Pieridae in Sarawak are revealed by this study. Further research on the butterflies of family Pieridae in Sarawak should be conducted for more detailed biological and ecological information. Key words: Butterflies, Pieridae, Sarawak, voucher specimens, distribution.

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.

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.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui perbandingan pola peletakan telur E.blanda pada dua macam tanaman pakan larva. Dua spesies tanaman pakan yang di gunakan yaitu tanaman kaliandra (Calliandra surinamensis) dan tanaman ketepeng (Cassia alata). Penelitian ini di lakukan di Taman Kupu–kupu Gita Persada yang terletak di Gunung Betung, Kemiling, Bandar Lampung, Provinsi Lampung, yang di lakukan pada bulan Januari sampai Maret 2016. Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini yaitu eksperimen dengan menggunakan 2 macam tanaman pakan larva yang masing-masing 10 polybag di letakkan berkelompok pada kandang penangkaran. Analisis data di lakukan dengan cara deskriptif kuantitatif dan uji independent samples test. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kupu-kupu E. blanda meletakkan telur-telurnya secara berkelompok di daun termuda pada kedua tanaman pakan larvanya. Kelompok telur yang terdapat pada tanaman kaliandra dan tanaman ketepeng berbeda nyata (p = 0,007) setelah di uji menggunakan uji T. Kelompok telur pada kaliandra yaitu 1-3 kelompok dengan rata-rata jumlah telur per kelompok yaitu 31,50 ± 6,85 butir sedangkan pada tanaman ketepeng 1-2 kelompok dengan rata-rata jumlah telurnya yaitu 40,84 ± 11,02 butir.

S. Tara and Madhvi Gupta Department of Zoology, University of Jammu Jammu-180,006, India *Corresponding author: Anu Bala Abstract The present article incorporates detailed field observations of family Pieridae in Jammu region at different altitudes during spring, summer and autumn seasons of 2012-2013. The study revealed that 13 species of butterflies belonging to 10 genera of family Pieridae exist in the study area. Most members of Family Pieridae are white or yellow. Pieridae is a large family of butterflies with about 76 genera containing approximately 1,100 species mostly from tropical Africa and Asia. Keywords :Butterflies, India, Jammu, Pieridae. Introduction Jammu and Kashmir is the northernmost state of India. It consists of the district of Bhaderwah, Doda, Jammu, Kathua, Kishtwar, Poonch, Rajouri, Ramban, Reasi, Samba and Udhampur. Most of the area of the region is hilly and Pir Panjal range separates it from the Kashmir valley and part of the great Himalayas in the eastern districts of Doda and Kishtwar. The main river is Chenab. Jammu borders Kashmir to the north, Ladakh to the east and Himachal Pradesh and Punjab to the south. In east west, the line of control separates Jammu from the Pakistan region called POK. The climate of the region varies with altitude. The order Lepidoptera contains over 19,000 species of butterflies and 100,000 species of moths worldwide.

  • Life History and Larval Performance of the Peacock Pansy Butterfly, Junonia Almana Linnaeus (Lepidoptera: Rhopalocera: Nymphalidae)
    IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology (IOSR-JESTFT) ISSN: 2319-2402, ISBN: 2319-2399. Volume 1, Issue 2 (Sep-Oct. 2012), PP 17-21 www.iosrjournals.org Life history and larval performance of the Peacock pansy butterfly, Junonia almana Linnaeus (Lepidoptera: Rhopalocera: Nymphalidae) 1Bhupathi Rayalu. M, 2Ella Rao. K, 3Sandhya Deepika.D, 4Atluri. J.B 1,2,3,4 (Department of Botany, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam-530 003, Andhra Pradesh, India.) Abstract: The life history of the Peacock pansy butterfly, Junonia almana and larval performance in terms of food consumption and utilization, and the length of life cycle on its host plant Ruellia tuberosa are described for the first time. The study was conducted during 2008 at Visakhapatnam (17o 42' N and 82 18' E), South India. Junonia almana completes its life cycle in 24.40 1.14 days (eggs 3, larvae, 15 – 16, pupa 5 – 7 days). The values of nutritional indices across the instars were AD (Approximate Digestibility) 44.10 – 95.87%; ECD (Efficiency of Conversion of Digested food) 1.48 – 34.00%; ECI (Efficiency of Conversion of Ingested food) 1.41 – 15.00%, measured at the temperature of 28 ± 20 C and RH of 80 ± 10% in the laboratory. These relatively high values of ECD and ECI explain at least partially the ecological success of J. almana in the present study environment. Keywords: Life history, Junonia almana, captive rearing, immature stages, food utilization indices. I. Introduction Butterflies are known for the incontestable beauty of their wing colors, and contribute to the aesthetic quality of the environment.
