簡介

棕胸鬚裳蛾（Cidariplura gladiata Butler, 1879）爲胸鬚裳蛾屬（Cidariplura Butler, 1879）的模式種，此文章處理與此種有關共六個種的分類議題。除分布於臺灣中海拔特有的酋胸鬚裳蛾（C. maraho Wu & Owada, 2013）外，棕胸鬚裳蛾與其他四種分別共域分布，包含中國廣東南嶺新種南嶺胸鬚裳蛾（C. nanling Wu, Owada & Wang, 2019）、四川新種瀘定胸鬚裳蛾（C. luding Wu, Owada & Wang, 2019)、臺灣與中國華南新種哈盆胸鬚裳蛾（C. hbun Wu, Owada & Wang, 2019; 正模產地為福山植物園）以及臺灣低海拔特有種山美胸鬚裳蛾（C. shanmeii Wu & Owada, 2013）。後兩者於臺灣共域分布、後翅臀角區皆有明顯黃斑，而山美胸鬚裳蛾所指定模式系列標本混有哈盆胸鬚裳蛾，於本文章釐清此問題。

山美胸鬚裳蛾與哈盆胸鬚裳蛾於新鮮個體可由前翅腎紋作鑑定：前者白色並較狹窄、後者淡黃白色並較寬。

Abstract

The generic type species Cidariplura gladiata Butler, 1879 and its allies of the genus Cidariplura Butler, 1879 are reviewed. In total, there are seven recognized species ranging from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, China, Vietnam; and we provide descriptions of three new species: C. nanling sp. nov., C. luding sp. nov., C. hbun sp. nov.. The species C. shanmeii Wu & Owada, 2013 is re-described since the type series was the existence of specimens belonging to both C. shanmeii and C. hbun. Key to all belonging species is given.

短斑簞鬚裳蛾種群回顧與三新種描述

簡介
裳蛾科毛足裳蛾亞科的短斑簞鬚裳蛾（Herminia decipiens (Hampson, 1898)）種群廣泛分布於東方區，據Holloway（2008）的處理將所有地理分布類群視為同種，然亦提出種群內分類地位仍須檢討。本文章透過解剖大量不同地區與分布限界標本，釐清種群內物種的劃定與描述三新種：短斑簞鬚裳蛾分佈於印度大部分區域，延伸至馬來半島與中國南部，新種域鬆簞鬚裳蛾（H. yuksam Owada & Wu, 2019）分布於尼泊爾東部與印度錫金、婆羅洲簞鬚裳蛾（H. borneo Owada & Wu, 2019）分布於婆羅洲、新種奄美簞鬚裳蛾（H. amamioshima Owada & Wu, 2019）分布於日本奄美大島嶼下甑島，臺灣族群過去由Wileman描述為 Nodaria terminalis Wileman, 1915，於此恢復種級地位並確認為特有種，建議中文名為臺灣簞鬚裳蛾（H. terminalis）。

Abstract
Asian herminiine moths of the Herminia decipiens complex are revised and five allopatric species are recognized, i.e. Herminia decipiens (Hampson, 1898) in Nilgiri Hills, Khasi Hills, South China, Indochina, Malay Peninsula, H. terminalis (Wileman, 1915) in Taiwan, H. yuksam sp. nov. in East Nepal, Sikkim, H. borneo sp. nov. in Borneo and H. amamioshima sp. nov. in Amami-oshima Is., Shimo-Koshikijima Is. and South Kyushu (Kagoshima). Key to all species is given.

臺灣產晶尺蛾屬分類群釐清與一新亞種描述

簡介
枝尺蛾亞科晶尺蛾屬（Peratophyga Warren, 1894）為一分布於東南亞與東亞的小類群，近期由Jiang et al. (2012)回顧中國與臺灣分類群並紀錄此屬物種數達17種。臺灣過往僅知一物種，經本研究確認歷來記載此種的四個學名皆為誤鑑定，而應為亦分布於日本與中國的P. grata (Butler, 1879)。又據不同產地個體的比較，台灣個體相較原名亞種與亞種P. g. totifasciata Wehrli, 1923其翅展寬度較長，且據雌生殖器與幼生期形態的差異而描述為臺灣特有亞種P. grata stuningi Wu & Xie, 2019，亞種名獻名給研究東方區尺蛾的知名德國分類學者 Dr. Dieter Stuning，物種建議中文名為寬晶尺蛾。此屬過往寄主紀錄僅有日本產寬晶尺蛾原名亞種於1927年被記錄取食金絲桃科金絲梅（Hypericum patulum），本研究之第二作者確認寬晶尺蛾臺灣亞種取食同屬的雙花金絲桃（H. geminiflorum）。

Abstract
The present study deals with the taxonomic identity of the Peratophyga Warren, 1894 taxon of Taiwan. After type examination and comparative study, the Taiwanese taxon is proved to belong to P. grata (Butler, 1879) but is somewhat different to the nominate subspecies and subspecies totifasciata Wehrli, 1923 in China based on the slight larger wingspan size, the features of female genitalia and known larvae. The new Taiwanese endemic subspecies, P. grata stuningi ssp. nov., is described.

貍夜蛾屬屬級定義評估與一台灣新種忠雄貍夜蛾描述

[文獻出處] Wu, S. and S. H. Yen. 2019. Evaluating the generic definition of Lithopolia Yoshimoto, 1993 with a description of one new species of Taiwan (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Noctuinae, Orthosiini). Zootaxa 4555 (3): 425–432.

簡介

夜蛾科夜蛾亞科中的盜夜蛾屬群（Egira Duponchel, 1845 group）是一個包含七個屬級與約44物種的分類群。過往由於文獻並未給定各屬分別的共衍徵與明確鑑識依據，故屬群內仍有不少待釐清議題。本研究針對採於臺灣的屬群內新種進行屬級判定，認為新種與過往描述產自泰國北部的Egira phahompoki Hreblay & Ronkay, 1999應都需歸屬於貍夜蛾屬（Lithopolia Yoshimoto, 1993），並提出此屬共衍徵為交尾囊上無其他屬群內常見的縱向條狀囊片。臺灣新種描述為 L. tadaokanoi Wu & Yen, 2019，種小名獻名給日治時期知名博物學家鹿野忠雄，物種中文名為忠雄貍夜蛾，模式產地為觀霧山區，亦分布於梅峰山區。此外轉至貍夜蛾屬的 L. phahompoki則首次紀錄亦分布於中國西部四川山區，中文名引其種小名即泰國一山名 Doi Phahompok而為法洪波山貍夜蛾。

Abstract

The present study evaluates the relationships among the Orthosiini genus Lithopolia Yoshimoto, 1993 and its related genera in Egira Duponchel, 1845 group. We propose the absence of signum on corpus bursae can be regarded as the synapomorphic character of Lithopolia. Based on this character, we transfer Egira phahompoki Hreblay & Ronkay, 1999 of N. Thailand (type locality) and W. China (new record) to Lithopolia (comb. nov.) and describe a closely related new species, L. tadaokanoi sp. nov., from Taiwan. The inner relationship of Lithopolia is also discussed.
