NOTEWORTHY RECORDS OF SATURNIIDS FROM NORTHERN MYANMAR WITH NOTES ON THE TRUE IDENTITY OF LOEPA DIVERSIOCELLATA (LEPIDOPTERA, SATURNIIDAE)

Records for fifteen Saturniid taxa from northen Myanmar, Kachin state, are given. Those for Salassa katschinica Bryk, 1944, Cricula zubsiana Nässig, 1985, Actias winbrechlini Brechlin, 2007 and Loepa diversiocellata Bryk, 1944 are notheworthy records. Indeed, Cricula zubsiana is reported for the first time for this country. Salassa katschinica was apparently known only on the typical series. New records for the recent described Actias winbrechlini are reported. The true identity of Loepa diversiocellata is briefly discussed on the basis of comparisons of the holotype with recently collected specimens

NOTES ON THE GENUS LEUCANELLA LEMAIRE, 1969 WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW TAXA (LEPIDOPTERA, SATURNIIDAE)

Two new taxa of the species-group of contempta are described. The description of these new subspecies are based on comparisons with typical and topotypical specimens of contempta. This was due to the possibility that other populations currently assigned to contempta are not really conspecific
