Volynkin, A. V. — Statuses of the lithosiinae genera Sesapa Walker, 1854 and Nipponasura Inoue, 1965 are revised, Sesapa is treated as a valid distinct genus and Nipponasura is downgraded here as a subgenus of Sesapa. Male and female genitalia of Sesapa and male vesica of Nipponasura are described and illustrated for the fi rst time. A new combination is established: Sesapa (Sesapa) sanguinea (Moore, 1877), comb. n. Sesapa (Nipponasura) inouei Volynkin, nom. n. is introduced as replacement name for Nipponasura sanguinea Inoue, 1965. Key words: Lithosiini, Nudariina, Asia, Japan, China, revised status, replacement name, new combination. Introduction Th e Asura / Miltochrista generic complex is one of the largest and taxonomically most diffi cult Lithosiini groups including several hundreds of species distributed in Afrotropical, Oriental, Palaearctic and Australian Regions. Systematics of the Oriental and partly Palaearctic members of the generic complex was reviewed by Holloway (2001), and those of the Afrotropical members by Durante (2008; 2009; 2012). Th e genus Sesapa was erected by Walker (1854) for a single species Sesapa inscripta Walker, 1854. Hamp- son (1900) synonymized it with Miltochrista, and at present several other taxa originally described as Sesapa by diff erent authors (Butler, 1877; Moore, 1877) are placed to the genera Miltochrista and Barsine (Holloway, 2001; Kirti, Singh, 2015).

Abstract Lithosiini genera of the Asura / Miltochrista generic complex related to Barsine Walker, 1854 sensu lato and Asura Walker, 1854 are overviewed. Barsine is considered to be a group having such an autapomorphic feature as a basal saccular process of valva only. Many species without this process are separated to the diverse and species-rich genus Ammatho stat. nov., which is subdivided here into eight subgenera including Idopterum Hampson, 1894 downgraded here to a subgenus level, and six new subgenera: Ammathella Volynkin, subgen. nov., Composine Volynkin, subgen. nov., Striatella Volynkin & Huang, subgen. nov., Conicornuta Volynkin, subgen. nov., Delineatia Volynkin & Huang, subgen. nov. and Rugosine Volynkin, subgen. nov. A number of groups of species considered previously by various authors as members of Barsine are erected here to 20 new genera and four subgenera: Ovipennis (Barsipennis) Volynkin, subgen.

One of these very common forms appeared to be a new sibling species which is described in this paper: Cyme laeta spec. nov. Four long forgotten allied taxa, described by the authors Rudolf van Eecke and Gustaaf Hulstaert, are compared and treated: Asura roseifusa Hulstaert, 1924a and Asura flavagraphia Van Eecke, 1926 are placed in Cyme (comb.nov.); Asura punctilinea Hulstaert, 1924a syn.nov. and Asura punctilinea aquilonis Hulstaert, 1924b syn.nov. are synonymized with Cyme reticulata Felder, 1861. Of all taxa concerned the adults and genitalia are depicted. Rangkuman: Spesies Cyme reticulate Felder, 1861 menunjukan variasi yang sangat besar di New Guinea dan kepulauannya.

Keywords:Lepidoptera,Arctiidae,Lithosiinae, Lyclene,newspecies,India. Jagbir SINGH KIRTI, Navneet SINGH GILL, Department of Zoology, Punjabi University, Paitala-147002,Punjab,India. E-mail:[email protected] [email protected] I. INTRODUCTION The genus Lyclene was proposed by MOORE (1859) as the objective replacement name for Cyl- lene WALKER (1854). The type species of Lyclene is Cyllene humilis WALKER, 1854 collected in Burma. HAMPSON (1894) synonymized genus Lyclene with Miltochrista HÜBNER. In 1900, HAMPSON transferred this genus to Asura WALKER as a separate section. STRAND (1922) followed the same nomenclature. ARORA and CHAUDHARY (1982) studied the lepidopterous fauna of Arun- achal Pradesh and adjoining areas and stated that two genera i.e. Asura WALKER and Miltochrista HÜBNER are known from India by 42 and 27 species respectively. NIELSEN et al., (1996) revived ge- nus Lyclene MOORE with broader concept and included different species which were previously de- scribed in Asura WALKER and Miltochrista HÜBNER.HOLLOWAY (2001) partially followed NIELSEN et al. (loc.cit) and resurrected the genera Adites MOORE and Barsine WALKER from the synonymy of Lyclene and suggested a stable status for the latter.

Through this study, a total of 212 species was observed from the study area which represented 212 species from 29 families. Most of the moth species were abundance in July to August. Moths are the most vulnerable organism, with slight environmental changes. Erebidae, Crambidae and Geometridae are the most abundant families throughout the year. The Coonoor Forestdale area was showed a number of new records and seems to supporting an interesting the monotypic moth species have been recorded. This preliminary study is useful for the periodic study of moths. Keywords: Moth, Environment, Nilgiri, Coonoor I. INTRODUCTION higher altitude [9].

PART I SPHINGES AND BOMB WITH EIGHT PLAJOES 0;cfor5 AT THE CLARENDON PRESS 1892 PRINTED AT THE CLARENDON PRKSS EY HORACE HART, PRINT .!< TO THE UNIVERSITY PREFACE At the request of Professor Westwood, and under the orders and sanction of the Delegates of the Press, this work is being produced as a students' handbook to all the Eastern Moths in the Oxford University Museum, including chiefly the Walkerian types of the moths collected by Wal- lace in the Malay Archipelago, which for many years have been lost sight of and forgotten for want of a catalogue of reference. The Oxford University Museum collection of moths is very largely a collection of the types of Hope, Saunders, Walker, and Moore, many of the type specimens being unique and of great scientific value. All Walker's types mentioned in his Catalogue of Hetero- cerous Lepidoptera in the British Museum as ' in coll. Saun- ders ' should be in the Oxford Museum, as also the types of all the species therein mentioned by him as described in Trans. Ent. Soc, Lond., 3rd sen vol. i. The types of all the species mentioned in Walker's cata- logue which have a given locality preceding the lettered localties showing that they are in the British Museum should also be in the Oxford Museum. In so far as this work has proceeded this has been proved to be the case by the correct- vi PREFACE.
