The Ennominae (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) of Papua Indonesia

by Rob de Vos

 

Craspedosis uniplaga Warren, 1896

angustiplaga Prout, 1924


Distribution

 

 

 

 

 

STATUS: Widely distributed in New Guinea and some islands in the east. There is no significant difference in wing pattern between uniplaga and angustiplaga so it doesn't make sense to consider both taxa as real subspecies.

PAPUA LOCALITIES: Numfor Island: Suer; New Guinea: Ampas, Ninay Valley, Uskwar. Details in gazetteer.

EXTERNAL DISTRIBUTION: Papua New guinea, Fergusson Island.

DATA SOURCES: BMNH, RMNH.
