The family level of relationship of Hesperiidae had been reported, but the phylogeny of genus levels still insufficient. The genus Satarupa is recognized by the transparent spots between veins 2A to R3 on the forewing and large white area in hind wing. Because of the difficulty in identification between the Satarupa species, there is many mis- identification in the publication about Satarupa. Evans recognized 7 species in 1949 and Okano (1987) and Chiba (1989) established genus Satarupa includes 7 species. The species currently identified in the genus is S. valentini, S. zulla, S. gopala, S. nymphalis, S. splendens, S. monbeigi, and S. formosibia. Even more, the gentilia of S. formosibia is unusual as the other species divided with the larvae characters and wing pattern; S. majasra treated as subspecies of gopala by Shirôzu in 1953, but Tsukiyama recognized the characters more similarity with nymphalis. Because the relatives genera of S. distribute in tropical regions, but the genus S. distributes from temperate region to tropical region. Construct the phylogenetic relationship of S. species to realize that what the ancestral region of Satarupa and clarify the states of S. formosibia and majasra. Samplings form the Asia countries, and use the PCR to amplify the target genes, two from mitochondrion: COI and II; one form nuclear, Ef1α. Use the sequence to maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analysis to construct the phylogenetic tree. The results show that the genus Satarupa is monophyletic group and also the each species. The tree topology suggests that S. formosibia belongs to the group with monbeigi, and S. majasra belongs neither gopala nor 2 nymphalis, and it should rise as a species. The temperate distribution suggests that the adaption from the tropical region to the temperate regions.

Taxonomists have used similarities, observed behavioral and morphological characters without considering their phylogenetic relationships of the taxa (de Queiroz and Gauthier, 1990). However, those practices resulted in a lot of misclassifications when re-examine after a couple years using more characters (Hebert et al., 2004). Using characters to construct phylogenetic trees illustrate most of evolutionary explanations other than only using functional or adapted characters. It helps scientists to understand the system of biological diversity and the evolutionary information. Hesperiidae is the large family in Lepidoptera, it is known by stockier bodies, hooked antennae and darting flight habits. Because of the wing pattern variation, rarely know in larvae stage and ecological habits, the classification need to redefine. The genus Satarupa Moore, 1865 consists of a few relatively large skippers; it is characterized by black wings with some transparent spots between veins 2A to R3 on the forewing and large white area on the hind- wing. The Upper corner of the F cell protruding, vein Cu2 close to the base of F cell, and the posterior edge of hidewing is longer than anterior edge; Male external genitalia tegument casque, uncus short and thick, gnathos round shape (Chou 1998). All known larvae utilize Rutaceae as host plants (Uchida 1995; Hsu 2002; Harada et al., 2012). Evans (1949) recognized 7 species: S. valentini Oberthür, 1921, S. zulla Tytler, 1915, S. gopala Moore, 1865, S. nymphalis (Speyer, 1879), S. 4 splendens Tytler, 1915, S. monbeigi Oberthür, 1921, and S. majasra Fruhstorfer, 1909. This classification had been followed until Shirôzu (1960) pointed out that there were two species distributed in Taiwan, namely S. majasra and S. formosibia with the letter synonymized with majasra by Evans (1949). In addition, Shirôzu (1960) followed Evans (1956) and treated S. majasra as a subspecies of S. gopala. Because of this treatment, there are so many misidentifications and confusion found among current publications especially those from China (Io 1990; Li and Chu 1992; Gu and Chen 1997; Chou 1998; Wang 1998; Chou et al. 1994; Huang et al. 2001; Xue et. al. 2009) and shows on the appendix 1. Okano (1982) and Okano and Okano (1984) described two additional species from Emeishan, Sichuan, both of are the variation of monbeigi and which were subsequently synonymized with monbeigi by Okano himself (Okano 1987; Chiba and Tsukiyama 1989), and shown in Figure 1. Based on the adult morphological characters, the members of the genus can be classified into four lineages: valentini-group, gopala-group majasra/ zulla/nymphaslis- group, and formosibia/ splendens/ monbeigi-group (Chiba, in prep.). Morphological characters of larvae also suggest that this grouping would be valid. Larval stages of five species have been known (Hsu 2002; Harada et al., 2012). Uchida (1995) illustrated larvae of formosibia and majasra. The former has yellow and white spots on the lateral sides, while the latter has white lateral band. Igarashi and Fukuda (2000) illustrated and described four species of Satarupa larvae. However, the larva of majasra from Taiwan (illustrated as gopala) is that of formosibia and the male photographs of nymphalis from Sichuan have characters of monbeigi. The larva of gopala has white 5 lateral band as majasra and white spots on the dorsal middle line; S. valentini larvae has lateral band as majasra and four lines of white spots on the dorsal middle line (Harada et al, 2012). The gentilia of S. formosibia is unusual within the genus. The valva is smaller and the projection is shorter than other species except S. valentini. The taxonomic of S. formosibia needs to confirmation. Besides, Tsukiyama(1995) claimed that S. majasra should be treated as the subspecies of S. nymphalis rather than gopala, or as the endemic species of Taiwan. The taxonomic states of two Taiwanese species taxa S. formosibia and S. majasra needs classified. Historical biogeography reflects the spatial and temporal pattern of taxa; these days the biogeographic researches combine the phylogenetic data to understand the events of vicariance, dispersal and even the mode of speciation. Many taxon-oriented phylogenetic studies address the biogeographical implication of their results, and find the geological connections among the areas. (Murphy et al., 2001) The genus of American katydid, Neoconocephalus, distributes form the North America to the Central America, the life histories and others characters were confuse the scientists for a couple years. Using phylogeny and match the geographical distribution that shows the life history has changed multiple times independently. (Snyder et al., 2009). The genus Satarupa is distributed form south western Siberia, China, Malaysia, and to Indonesia Sunda Islands. The distributions of related genera of Satarupa shown by Warren 2009 are tropical distributed, mainly in India, Indo-China peninsula, and Indonesia. In the tribe Tagiadini, only two genera, Daimio and Satarupa, are distributed from 6 tropical to temperate regions. Furthermore, most of the species in the genus Satarupa are distributed from Siberia to Southern China, while S. gopala is distributed mainly in the tropics, from Indo-China peninsula to Java. The life cycle of Satarupa species except for gopala is one generation per year, and the larvae have to expose to a period of cold temperature which reflects the temperate life trait (Snyder et al., 2009) even distributes in the tropical region. But the outgroup species, with the multivoltine and without diapause, the

Rajapaksha1, C. de Alwis1 1Butterfly Conservation Society of Sri Lanka, 762/A, Yatihena, Malwana, Sri Lanka 2 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Larval food plants (LFPs) of Sri Lankan butterflies are poorly documented in the historical literature and there is a great need to identify LFPs in conservation perspectives. Therefore, the current study was designed and carried out during the past decade. A list of LFPs for 207 butterfly species (Super family Papilionoidea) of Sri Lanka is presented based on local studies and includes 785 plant-butterfly combinations and 480 plant species. Many of these combinations are reported for the first time in Sri Lanka. The impact of introducing new plants on the dynamics of abundance and distribution of butterflies, the possibility of butterflies being pests on crops, and observations of LFPs of rare butterfly species, are discussed. This information is crucial for the conservation management of the butterfly fauna in Sri Lanka. Key words: conservation, crops, larval food plants (LFPs), pests, plant-butterfly combination. Introduction Butterflies go through complete metamorphosis 1949). As all herbivorous insects show some and have two stages of food consumtion.

L.D evyatkin & A. L Monastyrskii received 5.V.2003 Summary: A total of 67 species is added to the list of Hesperiidae of southern Vietnam, 15 of them being new for the country as a whole. A new subspecies, Pyroneura callineura natalia subspec. nov. is described and illustrated. Taxonomic notes on certain species are presented. Since the previous publication summarizing the knowledge of the Hesperiidae in the southern part of Vietnam (Devyatkin & M onastyrskii , 2000), several further localities have been visited by research expeditions and individual collectors. The annotated list below is based predominantly on the material collected in the Cat Tien Na­ ture Reserve in 2000 (no year is given for the label data in the list), which was most profoundly studied and proved to be very rich and diverse in terms of the butterfly fauna, and contains new records for the south of the country along with some taxonomic corrections made in view of the new data. Although some of the areas concerned in this paper may be geographically attributed to the southern part of Central Vietnam (or Annam), they were not regarded in our previous publica­ tions dedicated to the northern and central areas of the country (Devyatkin & M onastyrskii , 1999, 2002), the new data thus being supplementary to those published before on the south­ ern part of Vietnam (Devyatkin & M onastyrskii , 2000).

Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea, Erebidae, Spilarctia robusta, phylogenetic analyses, mitogenome, evolution, gene rearrangement Abstract. The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Spilarctia robusta (Lepidoptera: Noctuoidea: Erebidae) was se- quenced and analyzed. The circular mitogenome is made up of 15,447 base pairs (bp). It contains a set of 37 genes, with the gene complement and order similar to that of other lepidopterans. The 12 protein coding genes (PCGs) have a typical mitochondrial start codon (ATN codons), whereas cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) gene utilizes unusually the CAG codon as documented for other lepidopteran mitogenomes. Four of the 13 PCGs have incomplete termination codons, the cox1, nad4 and nad6 with a single T, but cox2 has TA. It comprises six major intergenic spacers, with the exception of the A+T-rich region, spanning at least 10 bp in the mitogenome.

  • Butterfly Extirpations
    RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 2018 Conservation & Ecology RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 66: 217–257 Date of publication: 19 April 2018 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:CFF83D96-5239-4C56-B7CE-8CA1E086EBFD Butterfy extirpations, discoveries and rediscoveries in Singapore over 28 years Anuj Jain1,2*#, Khew Sin Khoon3, Cheong Weei Gan2, and Edward L. Webb1* Abstract. Habitat loss and urbanisation in the tropics have been recognised as major drivers of species extinctions. Concurrently, novel habitats such as urban parks have been shown to be important as habitats and stepping stones in urban ecosystems around the world. However, few studies have assessed long-term patterns of species extinctions and discoveries in response to these drivers in the tropics. We know little about long-term persistence and utility of novel habitats in tropical urban ecosystems. In this study, we produced an updated and exhaustive butterfy checklist of species recorded from Singapore till December 2017 to investigate trends in butterfy extirpations (local extinctions), discoveries (new country records) and rediscoveries and how these relate to land use change in 28 years (1990–2017) in Singapore. Up to 144 butterfy species were identifed to be extirpated in Singapore by 1990. From 1990–2017, an additional nine butterfy extirpations have potentially occurred, which suggests a maximum of 153 butterfy extirpations to date. The rate of extirpations between 1990 to 2017 (< 0.33 extirpations per year) was much lower than the rate of extirpations between 1926 to 1989 (> 1.52 extirpations per year). The majority of potentially extirpated butterfies between 1990 to 2017 were species restricted to mature forests.

Lees, Jinhui Shen, Qian Cong, Blanca Huertas, Geoff Martin, and Nick V. Grishin Abstract: Malaza fastuosus is a lavishly patterned skipper butterfly from a genus that has three described species, all endemic to the mainland of Madagascar. To our knowledge, M. fastuosus has not been collected for nearly 50 years. To evaluate the power of our techniques to recover DNA, we used a single foreleg of an at least 140-year-old holotype specimen from the collection of the Natural History Museum London with no destruction of external morphology to extract DNA and assemble a complete mitogenome from next generation sequencing reads. The resulting 15 540 bp mitogenome contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and an A+T rich region, similarly to other Lepidoptera mitogenomes. Here we provide the first mitogenome also for Trapezitinae (Rachelia extrusus). Phylogenetic analysis of available skipper mitogenomes places Malaza outside of Trapezitinae and Barcinae + Hesperiinae, with a possible sister relationship to Heteropterinae. Of these, at least Heteropterinae, Trape- zitinae, and almost all Hesperiinae have monocot-feeding caterpillars. Malaza appears to be an evolutionarily highly distinct ancient lineage, morphologically with several unusual hesperiid features.
