Abstract

The genus Ectropis HUBNER is a monophyletic group if it is strictly defined based on E. crepuscularia ([DENIS et SCHIFFERMULLER]), the type species of the genus, and its relatives (SATO, 1980, 1984). Among the Hypomecis-complex many Indo-Malayan and Palaearctic species were placed in Ectropis simply because they had fasciculate male antennae. Some of such species have already been transferred to other genera mainly based on genitalic characteristics, but there still remain many disparate elements in the genus Ectropis from South East Asia. So far as I am concerned, as to the Taiwanese species, only three species belong to Ectropis. The mature and immature characters of them will be described in this paper, together with preliminary notes on taxonomic treatment of the other Taiwanese non-Ectropis species.
