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.

    Field Guides Tour Report Thailand Invitational 2017 Feb 25, 2017 to Mar 18, 2017 Dave Stejskal & John Rowlett For our tour description, itinerary, past triplists, dates, fees, and more, please VISIT OUR TOUR PAGE. This shimmering Green-tailed Aethopyga is one of the fanciest sunbirds we saw on the tour! Photo by participant Fred Dalbey. It’s been two months now since our Thailand adventure closed and yet I live with persistent reminders of episodes from that trip that arise almost daily! No doubt, in part, because this was my first tour to this extraordinary country for birds, food, culture, and people (and now we know, butterflies!). And in part because I knew that ours was the last tour, after 21 wonderful years, that our heralded Asia guide Dave Stejskal would lead to Siam. Ouch, bite the man! Having the encounters, as we did, with so many legendary birds--Spoon-billed Sandpiper and Nordmann’s Greenshank, Silver Pheasant and Siamese Fireback, Great Hornbill and Silver-breasted Broadbill, Crested Jay and Ratchet-tailed Treepie, Sultan Tit and Giant Nuthatch, and overwhelming numbers of bulbuls, babblers, leaf warblers, and flycatchers--is enough to assure an exceptional birding tour. But to insure an experience of the highest quality, it was necessary to collect a stellar group of participants under the leadership of a first-rate guide and mix in some fabulous Thai food, some Siamese culture, and Dave’s good friend Wat with the best ground crew in the business in order to produce the kind of trip we in fact enjoyed. It was a humdinger.

    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.

    Advances in Biological Sciences Research, volume 11 Proceedings of the Joint Symposium on Tropical Studies (JSTS-19) Diversity and Community Pattern of Butterflies on Degraded Heath Forest in East Kalimantan Harmonis1,* Sutedjo1 1 Faculty of Forestry, Mulawarman University Jl. Ki Hajar Dewantara Kampus Gn. Kelua, Samarinda 75116, East Kalimantan, Indonesia *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Heath forest is one unique ecosystem in tropical regions. Many biodiversities and their ecological characteristic in this ecosystem are still unknown by science, including butterflies. Therefore, the study was conducted to determine butterfly richness and diversity indices in every site on natural secondary and degraded heath forests. A field study was conducted in two localities in East Kalimantan, i.e. Muara Badak and Sebulu areas. In every locality was located three sites for data gathering. The butterfly data were collected by capturing specimens using aerial insect nets and baited traps in August–September 2017. In general, the species richness in all sites lacked compared to the lowland forest habitat. During the study, only 200 individuals in 34 species were recorded in total. Calculation of Fisher’s alpha showed the diversity of butterflies in study sites in the range 2.28–16.35. Twenty-four main species spread in the study sites. Eight species showed strong fidelity for degraded heath forest habitats, moreover, Neptis hylas prefer fewer trees, and Mycalesis fuscum prefers denser trees. Meanwhile, there was no apparent taxonomical composition pattern, except family Nymphalidae with subfamilies Satyrinae and Limenitidinae, which showed superior in all sites. Other finding showed that the density of trees was affected to the geographic distribution of butterfly species; the denser trees appeared narrow distribution species, more prefer to Sundaland, and the sites with fewer trees appeared more comprehensive distribution species, more prefer to Oriental Region.

Hamiguitan Wildlife Sanctuary, Davao Oriental, using quadrat method in five vegetation types, namely; agroecosystem (10-400 masl), dipterocarp (500-900 masl), montane (900-1400 masl), mossy (1400-1500 masl) and pygmy (1500-1675 masl). Two 20m x 20m plots were established per vegetation type. These inventory techniques revealed 142 species of butterflies plus one new subspecies described and illustrated. Diversity assessment using Shannon-Weiner index showed high level (4.1) in the Montane forest as compared to other vegetation types. Bray- Curtis similarity index showed low species similarity in pygmy, mossy and agro-montane forests (< 40 %). Furthermore, this study revealed 7 possible new species, 44 endemics: 2 eastern Mindanao endemic (very rare), 4 Mt. Hamiguitan endemic (very rare), 16 Mindanao endemic and 22 Philippine endemic. Seven species are new records in Mindanao. Mt. Hamiguitan 1 Asian Journal of Biodiversity Wildlife Sanctuary is the home of diverse and endemic butterfly species.
