Abstract The Iife histories and biology ef the twu species of Epicopeiidae of Taiwan are clescribed and illustratecl fer the first time. Additionally, a comment on phylogenetic position of this family is also provided. Key words Diurnal moths, immature stages, hostplants, phylogeny. Introduction The family Epicopeiidae embraces several medium- to large-sized diurnal moths across the Oriental and the Palaearctic regions. They are usually regarded as mimic to a certain species of Papilionidae, Danainae or bearing aposematic coloration. In Taiwan, two species of Epicopeiidae, EIPicopeia mencia Moore, 1874, and E. hainesii matsumuvai Okano, 1973, have hitherto been recognized. wnile the early stages of the same species from Japan and China have been described or illustrated, the life history of this family from Taiwan has remained unknown to date. In early May 1992, one of us, Yen, was able to collect larvae and eggs of E, mencia from Ulmus Parvijblia Jacq. (Ulmaceae) at Huei-Sen Forests, Nantou Co. and Shanping, Kaohsiung Co,, Taiwan, respectively. They were subsequently brought to the laboratory of Department of.Entomology. Rearing was conducted at room temperatures, Eggs were put into a small transparent plastic bag ; hatched larvae were reared in a 15 × 8 × 20 cm plastic case with an abundant supply of leaves of the hostplant; pupae were left in the case to emerge; hibernate pupae were mantained at 100C. -

The Australian Government is committed to acting in accordance with the plan and to implementing the plan as it applies to Commonwealth areas. This Territory approved recovery plan was prepared with financial support from the Australian Government and has been adopted as a national recovery plan under the provisions of the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. The plan has been developed with the involvement and cooperation of a broad range of stakeholders, but individual stakeholders have not necessarily committed to undertaking specific actions. The attainment of objectives and the provision of funds may be subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved. Proposed actions may be subject to modification over the life of the plan due to changes in knowledge. -

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. -

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.

Euploea Species Are Unpalatable to Their Otherwise Enemies
An introduction to Crows of the World, the Euploeas (Lepidoptera : Danainae) – Peter Hendry The Euploea belong to the subfamily Danainae of the butterfly family Nymphalidae, although some authors place them in a family of their own, Danaidae. They are known as Crows, because of their mostly dark colouration, generally dark brown with some white markings. Some Crows have a blue or purplish sheen over part of their wings. With one endemic species on the Seychelles and another on the Mascarene Islands, in the Indian Ocean, the remainder of the genus ranges from India and South-east Asia (from Sikkim, Tibet and Afghanistan in the east) as far north as the Ryukyu Islands of southern Japan, throughout the Philippines and the Indonesian Archipelago, to New Guinea, the Bismarcks, Solomons, northern and eastern Australia, and the Islands associated with New Caledonia, the New Hebrides (Vanuatu), Fiji, Samoa, Tonga and as far eastwards as Niue, the Cook Islands and the Society Islands. (Parsons Fig. 1 1999) Fig.1. The larvae feed on plants in the Apocynaceae, Asclepiadaceae and Moraceae plant families, many of which are poisonous to most animals. Most of these plants extrude milky latex when cut. Caterpillars of the Common Crow, Euploea core corinna (Fig. 16) sever leaf veins prior to feeding on their latex-bearing host plants, which restricts the flow of latex at feeding sites (Clarke and Zalucki, 2001). This has been observed for other species and genera. Over 100 species of Lepidoptera, Coleoptera and Orthoptera cut veins on host plants (Helmus and Dussourd, 2003). By feeding on toxic plants the larvae, pupae and adults of some Euploea species are unpalatable to their otherwise enemies. -
