Abstract

Indonesia has a high diversity of butterflies with more than 2,000 species, yet knowledge of their pre-adult stages is very limited. A thorough understanding of the larval stage is necessary to complement the data on butterfly diversity and distribution. This survey, which lasted from 2012 to 2022, aimed to document the butterfly larvae in their last instars that were encountered in East Java. Leaves of the host plants were visually inspected during the day to collect butterfly eggs or larvae. The eggs and larvae were then reared to adulthood and resulted in 136 verified species in total. Of 136 species, the caterpillars of 107 species (78.68%) had previously been documented, and those of 29 species (21.32%) are newly reported here, including the caterpillars of Eurema beatrix and Ixias venilia, which are rare and endemic to Java. This information will serve as a substantial part of developing a field guide to the butterflies of Java, which will include pre-adult stages.

Abstract

Indonesia is a mega biodiversity country and is host to many endemic butterfly species. However, data about Indonesian butterflies is still very limited due to some constraints of research personnel capacity, budget, challenging access to many islands, and other factors. This paper aims to inform a new direction using the Kupunesia App as a breakthrough and to invite more citizen science participation to accelerate butterfly research in Indonesia. The involvement of butterfly enthusiasts as citizen scientists has increased the knowledge as can be seen within one month of the launching of the App in November 2022. About 500 people have downloaded the App, 182 people have contributed their data to Kupunesia App, 342 checklists were recorded and 321 species were observed from various locations in Indonesia. This momentum should be maintained so that it can effectively and sustainably support citizen scientists.
