Brahmaeidae und Saturniidae von Laos und Kambodscha - eine vorläufige Zusammenstellung Brahmaeidae and Saturniidae of Laos and Cambodia - a preliminary checklist
 
Zusammengestellt von Ulrich Brosch (Hille) und Dr. Stefan Naumann (Berlin). Die Artenliste basiert auf der Publikation von U. Brosch, S. Naumann, L.H. Paukstadt, U. Paukstadt, I. Tcherniak & M. Beeke (1999): Anmerkungen zur Brahmaeiden- und Saturniidenfauna (Lepidoptera: Bombycoidea) von Laos und Kambodscha. – galathea. Berichte des Kreises Nürnberger Entomologen eV (Nürnberg); Supplement 6, Dezember 1999. Für Laos sind bisher Nachweise für siebenundzwanzig Arten der Familie Saturniidae sowie zwei Arten der Familie Brahmaeidae publiziert; weitere Artnachweise liegen mittlerweile vor und werden nach Publikation in die hier vorgestellte Liste integriert. Unsere Kenntnis der Fauna von Kambodscha ist derzeit noch ausgesprochen dürftig. Lediglich wenig mehr als die sechs Arten der Familie Saturniidae und eine Art für die Familie Brahmaeidae, die in der oben genannten Arbeit zitiert wurden, konnten bisher nachgewiesen werden. Die hier präsentierte vorläufige Liste wird fortgeschrieben werden. Hinweise zu weiterführender Literatur befinden sich am Ende dieser Seite. Detailierte Anmerkungen zu den einzelnen Taxa sowie Abbildungen ausgewählter Falter sind derzeit in Vorbereitung.

Compiled by Ulrich Brosch (Hille) and Dr. Stefan Naumann (Berlin). The checklist is based on the publication of U. Brosch, S. Naumann, L.H. Paukstadt, U. Paukstadt, I. Tcherniak & M. Beeke (1999): Anmerkungen zur Brahmaeiden- und Saturniidenfauna (Lepidoptera: Bombycoidea) von Laos und Kambodscha. – galathea. Berichte des Kreises Nürnberger Entomologen eV (Nürnberg); Supplement 6, Dezember 1999. So far for the fauna of Laos records for twentyseven taxa belonging to the family Saturniidae and two species of the family Brahmaeidae are published, most of them for the first time; further records are in our hands already and will be added to the list after publication. Our knowledge on the fauna of Cambodia still remains poor. Aside of the six species of the family Saturniidae and one species of the family Brahmaeidae cited in the publication mentioned above only few more are known. Research is still in progress, the presented list will be continued. The references can be found at the end of this page. Notes on selected taxa and links on figures of specimens are in preparation.

Anmerkungen / Notes

1) Archaeoattacus edwardsii malayanus (Kurosawa & Kishida, 1985 ("1984") wurde nach eingehenden Untersuchungen als neues Synonym von der nominotypischen Archaeoattacus edwardsii (White, 1859) eingestuft (cf. Brosch et al. 1999).  ==> back

2) There exists a single record of S. insularis (Snellen van Vollenhoven, 1862) from Laos, Phontiou, mentioned to be collected by P. Sciama in 1962; the specimen in stored in MNHN Paris, it was dissected and determined safely as a true S. insularis. Due to the fact that this species regularly occurs on the Indonesian islands of Java, Krakatoa, and Sumatra, we believe that the Laotian specimen is mislabeled regarding the source locality (compare also Peigler & Naumann, 2003: 142).  ==> back
