Introduction
This is the sixth paper on morphological studies of the pupaå of Lepidoptera – Noctuoidea (Dolinskaya,
1984, 1986, 1989, 1993, 1994). Patočka (1991) studied 16 species of European Lymantriidae and 35 species of
European Notodontidae (Patočka, 1990). Nakamura (1976) reviewed and classified pupae of 33 species of
Japanese Lymantriidae. The European Arctiidae (44 species) were stidied by Patočka (1992). There are se-
ries of references dealing weith the morphology of the pupae of Arctiidae (Banerjee, Haque, 1983; Goel,
Kumar, 1983; Garcia-Barros, 1986; Nardelli, Giandolfo, 1996).
Material and methods
The examined materials were collected by the authors in Primorskiy Kray (Far East, Russia). The eggs
were taken from the collected females and hatched caterpillars were fed to pupae. The terminology used in this
paper follows Mosher (1916). The taxonomical arrangement of the Arctiidae follows that of Dubatolov (1996).

Discussion
The comparative analysis provided by the authors allows to evaluate the following
characters.
1. The presence of the tubercle on the head may be used to recognize definite
species (D. irene).
2. The length of antennae and maxillae may be used to recognize species, however
these characters sometimes vary intraspecifically (P. amurensis).
3. Such characters as shape of setae of the abdominal segments and cremaster al-
lows to recognize with certainty species. It is useful also to combine taxa into groups.
It is evident from the foregoing thet the characters obtained from the pupa
mophology can be used for diagnostical purposes.
Resulting from the executed analysis, all the examined taxa may be subdivided
into two groups of different contents.
1. Apical portion of 10 abdominal segments fluently or conical rounded and setae
of the cremaster form a group – D. irene, P. amurensis.
2. Apical portion of 10 abdominal segments with medial groove or with little
faintly wavy. Setae of the cremaster are arranged in two groups – C. niveum, R. amu-
rensis, S. subcarneum, S. luteum.
Or
1. Setae of the cremaster with the apical thickening – S. subcarneum, S. luteum;
P. amurensis, C. niveum.
2. Setae on the cremaster are bent at the apex – R. amurensis, D. irene.
Diacrisia irene. Head with a small tubercle at the proximal end of antenna. An-
tennae longer than prothoracic legs. Maxilla not reaching the antennal apex. The setae
on the abdominal segments clearly expressed, without thickening at the apex. Apical
portion of the 10 abdominal segment weakly rounded and setae of the cremaster are
situated in one group and bent at the apex.
Rhyparioides amurensis. Antennae longer than prothoracic legs length. Maxillae
reaching the antennal apices. The setae on the abdominal segments distinctly ex-
pressed, with thickening at the apex. Apical portion of 10 abdominal segment with
medial groove, setae of the cremaster arranged in two groups and are bent at the apex.
Chionarctia niveum. Antennae reach or slightly not reach level of distal end of
prothoracic legs. Maxillae longer than antennae length. Groups of setae on the ab-
dominal segments are indistinct or absent. Apical portion of 10 abdominal segments
with medial groove. Setae of cremaster arranged in two groups and with the thickening
at the apex.
Spilarctia subcarneum, S. luteum. Antennae are longer than fore legs length. Max-
illae not reach antennal apices. The setae of the abdominal segments faintly expressed
or absent. Apical portion of 10 abdominal segments with little faintly wavy projection.
Setae of cremaster arranged in two groups and with the thickening at the apex.
Phragmatobia amurensis. The setae of the abdominal segments faintly expressed or
absent. Apical portion of 10 abdominal segments conical rounded and setae of the
cremaster are situated one group and with the thickening at the apex.
We wish to express our thanks to Dr. M. Ponomarenko and E. Belayev (Institute of Biology and Pe-
dology, Vladivostok, Russia) and Dr. M. Omel’ko (Gorno-Tayozhnaya Stantsiya, Primorsky Kray, Russia)
for their kind assistance during our field work in Primorsky Kray and granting us their stationary facilities.
We are obliged to I. Kostyuk (Zoological Museum of Tarasa Shevchenko National University in Kyiv) who
kindly assisted us with literature and for presenting a possibility to work with the collection material.
