Butterflies (lepidoptera: Papilionoidea And Hesperioidea) From Swamp Forests And Restinga Forests At The Southern Brazilian Coastal Plain [borboletas (lepidoptera: Papilionoidea E Hesperioidea) De Matas Paludosas E Matas De Restinga Da Planície Costeira Da Região Sul Do Brasil]

摘要

This paper presents a butterfly species list of Swamp and Resting forests in the Coastal Plain of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina States aiming to contribute to the knowledge of butterflies for these environments in the Atlantic Forest. Data compilation was obtained through inventories carried out in the years 2005 and 2011 with two sampling protocols (bait traps and butterfly nets). After 10.920 trap-hours and 360 net-hours 225 species of butterflies were recorded belonging to six families and 19 subfamilies. Twenty-five species are new records for the Rio Grande do Sul State and 35 species are new records for the Atlantic Forest in Rio Grande do Sul, with six Nymphalidae, ten Hesperiidae, twelve Lycaenidae and seven Riodinidae. The results obtained in the present study are fundamental for the knowledge and conservation of the taxa studied and to their associated habitats.
