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.

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.

Collection of insects belonging to different order and family was made by using variety of collection equipments and methods due to the diversity in their habitate. Study was carried out at selected habitats from August 2020- January 2021. A total of 51 insect species belonging to 8 different orders and 34 different families were recorded in the study area. Among these, 23 species were identified from natural ecosystem (12 families), 17 from semi-natural ecosystem (12 families) and 11 from Man-made ecosystem (11 families). During the present investigation high species composition was recorded in natural ecosystem followed by semi-natural ecosystem whereas the minimum species composition was noticed in Man-made ecosystem. The study conclude that the natural ecosystem support the existence of rich insect species might be due to favourable environmental and habitat conditions. Therefore, the continuous monitoring and conservation of natural ecosystems is highly essential for the sustenance of rich flora and fauna.

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.

We report identi/ication of 189 unique genera along with 154 unique species. Despite the relative small size of the observation area and the location being at the heart of a busy metropolis, the moths were found to be of diverse variety, with 26 different families and 76 tribes.

    XXIX NOTES ON THE HABITS OF INDIAN INSECTS, MYRIAPODS AND ARACHNIDS By F. H. GRAVELY, M.Sc., Assistant Superintendent, Indian Museum. (Plates XXII-XXV). 1'he preparation of a course of popular lectures during the summer of 19I4 necessitated the completion, so far as opportu­ ni ty permitted, of a number of nlore or less casual observations that I have chanced to make from time to time on the habits of insects and spiders of Calcutta, and the production of figures to illustrate them. The present, therefore, seems a favourable oppor­ tunity of putting on record both these and certain observations made in other parts of India, in Burma and in Ceylon during the last five or six years, incomplete though they are in some cases. Although a number of notes on the habits of Indian insects have been published from time to time J they are still regrettably few) considering the richness and interest of the fauna with which they deal; and they are so scattered that the discovery of their existence, by anyone in a position to make use of them, is a matter of great uncertainty. In order to bring all these notes together search would have to be nlade through a number of European journals; but the results of such a search would probably be very small in comparison with the amount of time it would occupy. Indeed, the time would probably be better employed in making fresh observations. Since} however, observations on living Indian animals must almost necessarily be made in India, many of them will naturally be recorded in Indian journals, which are comparatively few.
