Notes on Food Habits of Lepidoptera in Samoa BY O. H. SWEZEY Experiment Station, H.S.P.A. (Presented at the meeting of December 22, 1941) While on a collecting trip in Samoa during June, July and August, 1940, with Mr. E. C. Zimmerman of the Bishop Museum, I gave special attention to the rearing of lepidopterous larvae, and thus determining so far as possible the feeding habits of as many species as I was able, being continually on the search for caterpillars in whatever locality explored by us. Many new records were obtained in this way, and also some new species were discovered, not all of which have as yet been determined and described. Besides those reared, much material was obtained by light trap, and many species obtained which were not represented in Samoan collections at Bishop Museum. BUTTERFLIES Danaida plexippus (Linn.) At Afiamalu, Upolu, 2200 ft. elevation, July 10, 10 eggs were found on the leaves of a small plant of Asclepias curassavica.

Although such faunistic studies were conducted extensively in the region during the first decade of the early 20th century, there are a few new taxa, taxonomic revisions, misidentifications, and misspellings, which should be documented. We examined 1,276 species in 652 genera, 59 subfamilies, and 15 families. We propose 4 new combinations, namely Arichanna refracta Inoue, 1978 stat. nov.; Psyra matsumurai Bastelberger, 1909 stat. nov.; Olene baibarana (Matsumura, 1927) comb. nov.; and Cerynia usuguronis (Matsumura, 1927) comb. nov.. The noctuid Blepharita alpestris Chang, 1991 is regarded as a junior synonym of Mamestra brassicae (Linnaeus, 1758) (syn. nov.). The geometrids Palaseomystis falcataria (Moore, 1867 [1868]), Venusia megaspilata (Warren, 1895), and Gandaritis whitelyi (Butler, 1878) and the erebid Ericeia elongata Prout, 1929 are newly recorded in the fauna of Taiwan.

Keywords: butterflies; skippers; Rhopalocera; Sulawesi; Wallace Line; distributions; biogeography; hostplants. All species and subspecies of butterflies recorded from Sulawesi and neighbouring islands (the Sulawesi Region) are listed. Notes are added on their general distribution and hostplants. References are given to key works dealing with particular genera or higher taxa, and to descriptions and illustrations of early stages. As a first step to help with identification, coloured pictures are given of exemplar adults of almost all genera. General information is given on geological and ecological features of the area. Combi- ned with the distributional information in the list and the little phylogenetic information available, ende- micity, links with surrounding areas and the evolution of the butterfly fauna are discussed.

Karve Road, Naupada, Thane 400 602, Maharashtra, India. Email: [email protected] This paper presents an inventory of 418 species of moths (303 identified to species, 116 identified to genus) from 28 families belonging to 15 superfamilies, which were recorded by light trapping at eight sites in northern Western Ghats, India. Of the species recorded, with reference to their published distribution ranges, 11 species from five families appear to be new records for India, range extensions were noted for 130 species from 16 families, and 25 species from six families are endemic to India. The dominant families were Erebidae, Geometridae, Sphingidae and Crambidae. The highest number of moths were recorded from Malshej Ghat, Sanjay Gandhi National Park and Bheemashankar Wildlife Sanctuary. The highest species diversity was recorded from Sanjay Gandhi National Park. Amboli, Koyna Wildlife Sanctuary and Malshej Ghat showed a number of new records and seem to support interesting and endemic moth fauna.
