The ML and BI results are well resolved with areas of incongruence restricted to a few branches receiving low support in one or both analyses within a large clade comprising species of Maiestas.

The digestive canal is divided into three parts: the foregut, the midgut, and the hindgut. The foregut includes a pharynx, an oesophagus, a proventriculus and an oesophageal valve. There are the muscle layer, a thin epithelium, and the intima lining in the parts of the foregut. The midgut is well developed and has a transversely wrinkled shape. This epithelial layer of columnar cells is invaginated to form large and deep folds of epithelial tissue. The hindgut has pyloric valve, ileum, colon, and rectum. In the cell layers of the hindgut, there is an inner lining of the intima of cuticula, an epithelial layer and a muscle layer. There are 6 Malpighian tubules which are attached between the midgut and the hindgut. The results will help guide the development of new strategies for managing this pest. Because knowing the fine structure of the digestive and excretory system of this species is important in terms of forming the basis for the studies to be carried out in agricultural control against this species.","PeriodicalId":19728,"journal":{"name":"Oriental Insects","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83095435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A species list, with current nomenclature, is provided. Two beetles of primarily temperate origins are considered doubtful. Another two taxa are currently taxonomically misdated. Although all these specimens were attributed to the Joseph Banks insect collection, where they remain, the original source of the specimens is identified by Fabricius’ letters as the botanist, Jean Gerard Koenig. From material not described, or misattributed, by Fabricius, four additional lepidopterans have documented historical provenance linking them to Siam, while 21 more have probable and/or potential links to the type locality. The collecting observations of Koenig are discussed and described. From these it is also possible to identify exact capture records of several species.
