The present paper provides information on life cycle of polyphagous moth Eterusia aedea Linn. (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae). It breeds in rainy season and two generations are possible in a year from this region. About 42 to 54 are required days for completion of life cycle. Careya arborea Roxb. (Lecythidaceae) and Sapium insigne (Royle) Benth. (Euphorbiaceae) were recorded as new larval food plants of E. aedea Linn. from Amba Reserve Forest, Kolhapur, North Western Ghats, Maharashtra.
the reason why Gahan named the species licheneus; though he himself did not provide its etymology (Image 1). The prothorax, metasternum, metepisterna and distal sternites are also covered with a dense pubescence. The first two sternites are shining dark brown to black in the median region but have grayish and dark brown pubescence on their lateral sides.Head elongate, slightly sloping in front of eyes, gradually narrowed behind the eyes producing a noticeable 'neck'; mandibles prominent, curved, sharply pointed; front rugulose, shining, with sparse white pubescence at places. Clypeus narrow, transverse; maxillary and labial palpi moderately long, dark brown and covered with sparse pubescence (Image 2); eyes large, coarsely facetted, very feebly or shallowly emarginated behind antennal tubercles; head width maximum at eye level; genae moderately long (Image3).
