Papua Insects Foundation Note : « That in many cases pictures are insufficient to identify a species with certainty. It may be necessary to study genitalia or other characters which are not visible on just thumbnails or enlarged pictures. The thumbnail pages are therefore not suitable as identification keys for scientific purposes. In those cases please contact the specialist concerned with the insect group (see contributors). It may be necessary to have collected the actual specimens to be able to identify with 100% certainty. »

Papua is the western part of the island New Guinea and belongs politically to Indonesia. From 1828 till 1963 it was under control of The Netherlands as Dutch New Guinea. From 1963 the Indonesians first named it West Irian or Irian Barat. From 1973 it was named Irian Jaya and since 2000 it officially is named Papua. The part from the Birdshead Peninsula till East of Wandammen Peninsula is nowadays the Province of Papua Barat (West Papua), the eastern part till the PNG border is the Province of Papua.

Biogeography of Papua Indonesia

Geological history

The geography of the world is continuously changing in time. The Earth's crust is broken up in numerous pieces and is in constant movement. It is a dynamic system of « floating jigsaw puzzle pieces », some very large, others very tiny. Especially the area of Southeast Asia, the islands in particular, are subject to very complicated geological processes, tectonic movements. Dr. A.J. de Boer and Dr. J.P. Duffels discuss the biogeography of cicadas and the reconstruction of the geological history of Southeast Asia and Australian and Pacific islands in some of their publications. A short introduction is given below.

The rich biota of the Indo-Pacific region, east of Wallace's line, is a composite of Oriental and Australian elements. The high biodiversity presumably finds its origin in the extremely complex geotectonic past of the area. The area was shaped at the interaction zone of three converging tectonic plates: the Eurasian, Australian, and Pacific plates, and at present comprises a mixture of rifted microcontinents and fragments of Tertiary island arc origin. The area considered roughly consists of Sulawesi, Maluku, New Guinea, the Bismarck Archipelago, the Solomon islands, Vanuatu, Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, and some more outlying islands as the Caroline and Society groups. The present-day geography of this area developed after a series of continent-island arc collisions, first in southeast Asia, and later in northern Australia. The extreme complexity of the area in biogeographic respect is supposed to be mainly determined by the tectonic movements. The afore mentioned collisions at first caused the fragmentation of the originally more or less continuous island arc systems, but subsequent collisions led to a reassemblage of many such fragments in a changed geographical order in and around New Guinea. The fragmentation of island arcs led to vicariant speciation, while reassembly enabled dispersal of species into adjacent areas. Consequently, the flora and fauna of the area, and those of New Guinea in particular, result from a mixture of vicariant and dispersal events,


and offer the opportunity to study the similarities and differences between the vicariance and dispersal patterns.

The complexity of geotectonic movements makes Wallacea, New Guinea, and the west Pacific a challenging area for areacladistic [and biogeographic] studies, since many of the changes that occurred in the relative positions of the various islands and island parts must have led to vicariant speciations. The taxon-areacladogram of a monophyletic group of sufficient age, that shows a high rate of endemism in the areas concerned, should reflect that geotectonic history.

Areas of endemism

Areas of endemism are characterised by overlapping distributions of endemic species or species groups, and by a concentration of species of any given monophyletic group. Areas of endemism can be separated from adjoining areas by their own particular biota. An area of endemism can consist of two or more areas of endemism of a 'lower rank', when monophyletic species groups endemic to this area contain monophyletic subgroups which are restricted to a part of the area of endemism in question.

Geography of Papua

The geography of Papua is dominated by several mountain ranges in the northern half and widely forested wetlands in the southern half. In the neighbourhood of large cities and villages the tropical rainforest is declining by logging, burning and polution, like everywhere in the tropics, but fortunately the island still is one of the most richest for what primary rainforest is concerned. Approximately about 70% of its surface is still untouched, and please let's preserve this treasure!



Raja Ampat Islands

The Raja Ampat Islands are rather large islands northwest of the Birdshead Peninsula. The four largest islands are Waigeo, Batanta, Salawati and Misool, with wealthy nature and rather undisturbed forests. Waigeo is famous for its biodiversity in birds, Salawati is known from some important butterfly species, but little is known from Batanta. Misool is rather well known because of the many naturalistic visits in the past. The fauna is for the greater part papuan, but there are definitely some moluccan elements, rather expected considering the vicinity of the Moluccan Islands like Halmahera and Seram. The island Gebe takes a peculiar place in this region. Its fauna is for the greater part Papuan, but it belongs politically to the Moluccas.

The largest city in the neighbourhood is Sorong, at the northwest point of the Birdshead Peninsula. It is an unpleasant place to be, with it's oil industry, dirty harbour, cleared coastline and backland. The city is crowded and noisy with busy (taxi) traffic. In the wide surrounding the results of large scale logging are still visible, with erosion of the red coloured soil causing trouble. It is, however, the place to be when you have to go to the Raja Ampat Islands. Motorized longboats take you where ever you want to go to the nearby islands, but Misool should be reached by larger long distance boats.

Arfak Mountains

The Arfak Mountains are situated at the northeast side of the Birdshead Peninsula. The mountains are of a rather moderate altitude with peaks up to 2940 meters (Mount Mebo). It is amazing that nature is so wealthy and rather undisturbed in the vicinity of a big city like Manokwari. Moreover, at the very northwestern edge of the city is The Meja Reserve, a rather small National Park on top of Mount Meja (« Table Mountain »). Although there is high pressure on the protection of the surrounding nature by civilization (traffic, industry, logging), the Arfak Mountains are spared until now. With its rather steep mountain slopes and deep cloves it seems not interesting for industrial exploiration yet.

Most important cultivated areas are situated at the east coast of the Birdshead Peninsula. In the north the big city of Manokwari is settled, more south Andai, Warkapi, Oransbari and, at the southernmost point of the Arfak, Ransiki. Manokwari is the largest city in this area and is the second largest city of Papua and inhabits an university. Next in row at the east coast is Ransiki. It has a small industry and fishery harbour.

At the edges of the mountain area we found some palm-oil plantages (near Andai and Prafi) and areas with secundairy forest, but somewhat deeper in the mountains are still wide areas of primary forest, where the flora and fauna is rather undisturbed. High in the mountains are the two Anggi Lakes, Gigi and Gita. The Arfak Mountains inhabit a very rich biodiversity for several fauna elements, like birds and insects, with many endemic species. It definitely needs to be protected as a nature reserve.

Schouten Islands (Biak and adjacent islands)

North of the Cenderawasih Bay, between the Birdshead Peninsula and the eastern mainland of Papua, are the large Schouten Islands situated. The largest and most important islands of the Schouten Islands are Biak, Supiori, Yapen and Numfoor. Biak (together with Supiori formerly the Schouten Islands) is the most important one with an international airport and harbour. The southern part of Biak is cultivated, the northern part in majority undisturbed secundary and primary forests, with the Northern Biak Island Reserve as National Park. The city of Biak is the largest town on the island, other somewhat larger villages are Bosnik (the former Dutch capital city of Biak), Waroi and Korem. In 1996 Korem was stroke by a « tsunami », caused by a heavy earthquake, and for the greater part destroyed. Pictures below show the situation in Korem before this disaster, in 1993. The village has been rebuild but still, after more than ten years, the Northeast coast of Biak and Supiori show traces of tsunami destruction.


Biak Island

Biak attracts many tourists from Japan, USA and The Netherlands because of its war history. The American army and the Japanese invaders were in heavy combat at the end of Worldwar II. The Japanese hide themselves in the many natural caves at the south coast of Biak where they were trapped and slaughtered by thousands. Still many traces of this battle can be found in monuments, remains of tanks, landing ships, Jeeps, ammunition and, unfortunately, also remains of human bones (some are even sold to tourists). Just outside Biak City is a small museum where many of these remains can be found.

Supiori Island

Supiori, northwest of Biak, with the rather undisturbed Supiori Island Reserve, has a small mountain ridge with the highest peak, Bonsupiori, with an altitude of 1034 meter.

One of our visits in 2008 was on the northside of Supiori Island. Although a ring road around the island is being made, it was a pleasant surprise to us to see that most of the island is still covered by primary forest. Attemps are made to cut roads to the inside of the island but so far these are not yet numerous and far from complete. Of course it is just a matter of time until the island will be explored and cultivated, unless the official status of National Reserve. Therefore we should give logging and destroying the rainforest no chance and insist upon protection of the island's nature by the Indonesian government.

The northcoast of Supiori is dominated by Mangrove forests interrupted by some small villages settled at the coast. A totally new capital city has been build in the northeast which is still uninhabited, because people rather live in their familiar village with their own poor houses.

The insect life is still flourishing in the forests. Some conspicuous and common species are Ornithoptera priamus (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae), Eupholus magnificus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) and Acherontia lachesis (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae). We were lucky to have Joop Schaffers with us on our trip, who is an enthousiast macro-photographer. Many of the insects seen during the day or attracted to light in the evening were captured with his camera, and when suitable also collected by us.

Numfoor Island

Numfoor is a rather shallow and relatively small island, with a small mountain, Meriukwari, of only 204 meter. There is still rainforest present.

A citation of Mr. Felix Pratt in: J.J. Joicey & G. Talbot, 1916. New Lepidoptera from the Schouten Islands. Trans. Ent.Soc.London 1916 Part I: 65-68. (Papilionidae), about the Lepidoptera fauna on Biak:

« On biak, as on most islands out here, the commonest insects are Danaids and Satyrids. To the east, Appias and Catopsilia, particularly the former, were exceedingly common, i.e. for this part of the world. In South America forty to fifty Catopsilia in one sweep of the net is quite possible on a mule road. Such a take out here is an impossibility; four or five at once would be unusual. To the west, although the country is open and suitable to rapid-flying Pierids, the Appias and Catopsilia were conspicuous by their absence. In fact,



speaking from the standard of most tropical islands, butterflies in general are rather rare on Biak. »

« The difference between the forms on Biak and their allies in New Guinea and Jobi (Jappen [= Japen]), as far as is known with regard to the latter island, is remarkable. The same applies to the flora. Further, there are no paradise birds, kangaroos, cassowaries, or hornbills, yet all these are plentiful on Jobi, not thirty miles away. Yet the Goura victoriae (crown pigeon), which is a particularly heavy bird and can fly only a very short distance, is quite plentiful. This bird may, however, have been imported from Humboldt Bay centuries ago when there was perhaps communication with the more eastern districts. There is a lighter strain in many of the natives and some even have straight hair. This points to some past connection with the natives of the islands at the other end (south-east) of New Guinea. Were it not for the fact that Biak is apparently new land, one might suppose that it belongs to a former continent or great island. According to a missionary, one part, a small mountain, shows signs of being of very ancient formation; this tallies with the native folk-lore. »

« The formation of Biak is coral-limestone. There is anchorage on the south coast at Mokmen, but I believe none on the north. In places one can stand on the edge of the coral reef at low tide and sond without finding any bottom at sixty fathoms, as at Bosnek [= Bosnik] on the south-east corner. »

« The prevailing wind is, of course, the south east. This is a trade wind and really blows all the year round, but what is known as the south-east monsoon blows from April to September. Then the north-westerly squalls begin. »

« The altitude is not greater than 200 or 300 feet except in one part to the north, where a mountain runs up to 2000 feet. This, however, is not high enough to produce mountain forms. »

« There are no swamps on the island, and behind Waridoon the west are undulating plains. Here, in patches of secondary growth, most of the Delias were found. »

« One might stop a considerable time on Biak and get very few Delias. Perhaps a few euphemia males and, may be, both sexes of multicolor if one happenend to see the jambosa tree in flower on the sea shore. To get Delias, particularly the females, one must find the flowering trees which they haunt, and wait patiently in the branches during the sunny hours; 4 p.m. is a good time for females. During the great heat of the day most things are still except in the woods, where it is always possible to come across some females drinking. The female of euphemia is quite rare and very conspicuous; maudei is very rare indeed, and bosnikiana is yet rarer. »

« Papilio felixi is found hovering over the mud near the shore. It is not at all common, but its habits are probably much the same as the other thule forms. »


1873 - The German A.B. Meyer, from the Zoology Museum in Dresden, visited Mafoor (now Numfoor), Mysore (now the Schouten Islands Biak and Supiori) and Jobi (now Yapen). He explored the whole « Geelvink » (Cenderawasih) Bay coast.

Onin Peninsula (Fakfak)

South of the Birdshead Peninsula is Bomberai Peninsula with two mountainous areas, Onin or Fakfak Peninsula and the Kumafa Mountains. Of the latter hardly anything is known, but Fakfak is rather frequently visited by explorers. The former name of the city of Fakfak is Kapaur, which can be found on some ancient maps, but many times used by biologists. The Fakfak Mountains are of moderate altitude, the highest peak being 1619 meter.

2005 - Henk van Mastrigt and members of KSP visited Fakfak and surroundings.

2010 - Members of the Entomological Society of Latvia visited several localities on the peninsula among which Fakfak.



Wandammen Peninsula and surrounding

The Wandammen Peninsula is a relatively small area on the west side of the Cenderawasih Bay, dominated by a north-south running high mountain ridge, the Wondiwoi or Wandammen Mountains, with altitudes up to 2252 meters. The east side of this mountain ridge has very steep mountain slopes, at the west side the mountains are of a lower altitude with more shallow slopes. At this side most of the few villages are settled. Almost all of the mountain slopes are forested, but at the west side a small and narrow area is cultivated, with Wasior, Miei, Rasiei and Tandia as the only villages with some importance. Because there is still no road connection with the mainland of the Birdshead Peninsula there are no cars, only some motorcycles and mopeds, the main traffic is done by foot and by « vlerkprauw », a narrow boat with floaters on both sides. In Wasior and Miei many remains of the Dutch colonial time are still present; houses, schools and monuments of murdered missionaries. Because of its isolation the virgin nature is overwhelming. However, Wasior can be reached by boats coming from Manokwari and Ransiki which carry goods and petrol for the local people. Merpati used to have an aerial connection with Wasior from Manokwari, but since 1996 it is discontinued.

The mountainous area southwest of Wandammen, between the Bomberai Peninsula and Wandammen Peninsula, is almost unexplored. The mountains are of moderate altitude, the highest peak is 1605 meter. A little more is known of the frequently visited bays at the south coast, like Triton Bay and Etna Bay. We hope to get some detailed information of the interior of this area soon. If you have information or photographs which can be used by us we would be very thankful.

Although Wandammen Peninsula is an official National Park there is a serious threat of logging and hunting. The insect fauna proved to be rather unique by its endemic characters and therefore needs to be protected.

In the North Wandammen Peninsula is accompanied by Roon Island, which almost entirely consists of steep rocks and forests. At the coast some small villages are settled, mostly on poals, like War and Yende. In Yende we found a monument of the Dutch protestant missionary G.L. Bink, who died on 3th of May 1899 by decapitation by the wild local people.

The fauna and flora of Roon is similar to that of the northern part of Wandammen Peninsula with some endemic characters, while the southern part (from Dotir and Rakwa) is clearly closely related to the Birdshead Peninsula.

Northwest of Wandammen, at the southeast coast of the Birdshead Peninsula, Wendesi is settled. It is a small fisherman's village, but in former days it was important for the area, especially for the Dutch protestant mission. Again we found a monument of a deceased missionary: Jan A. van Balen, who set foot on Wendesi at the 10th of August 1888. According to the size and place of the monument it must have been a very important missionary in his period.

Mioswaar Island

More northward, almost halfway between Ransiki and Wandammen, is the island of Mioswaar. The insect fauna of this rather small island was hardly known until Henk van Mastrigt and some of his students paid a visit to it and made a small inventory of the


island in 2009. The island still has its beautiful undisturbed nature as seen on the picture below. The first insects records of this island can be found at: http://www.papua-insects.nl.

Kobowre Mountains (Weyland Mountains)

The Kobowre Mountains (Weyland Mountains) are located between the mountains of Wandammen Peninsula, Southwest Papua and the Snow Mountains (Sudirman Mountains). The mountains are of rather high altitudes, up to 3891 meter. In the east are the lakes Paniai and Tigi (formerly the Wissel Lakes). There are two larger towns in the area; in the north at the coast of the Cenderawasih Bay is Nabire and at the east coast of Lake Paniai is Enarotali. The interior of this area is entomologically almost unexplored, but some expeditions were made to Lake Paniai.



We hope to get some detailed information of the interior of this area soon. If you have information or photographs which can be used by us we would be very thankful.

We hope to get some detailed information of the interior of this area soon. If you have information or photographs which can be used by us we would be very thankful.

Jayawijaya Mountains

The Jayawijaya Mountains are the centre part of the Western Central Mountain Range in New Guinea. It is enclosed by the Sudirman Mountains (Snow Mountains) in the west and by the Star Mountains in the east. In the north and south it is enclosed between two giant lowland areas. Some mountains have imaginable names like Mount Goliath (Peak Yamin, 4595 meter), Mount David (4581 meter). The highest peak of Jayawijaya is Mount Trikora (Peak Wilhelmina, in the former Oranje Mountains), with 4730 meter the second largest peak of New Guinea and snow covered. North from this mountain is Lake Habbema, the largest lake in this area. In the centre of the area, east from Mount Trikora, is an important area for the region: the Baliem Valley. It was rather recently discovered (1936) by coincidence by a mail aircraft and appeared to have a self supporting agricultural system of high standard, without having contact with the civilized world. Now many modern western technics are introduced as well as many new vegetables and crops. The Baliem Valley is a wide flat valley at an altitude of 1500 meter. There is a theory that the Baliem Valley was once a large lake, where the valley itself was the bottom of the lake. This would explain the peculiar flat area and the « entrance » (or « break through ») in the South of the valley. In the valley itself is no primary forest and probably has never been there too, most of it is cultivated or are small secundary forests and bushes and plains.

Wamena

The most important town in the Baliem Valley is Wamena which is growing fast with all consequences of a civilized city, like polution, noise and busy traffic. In 2008 there was a shortage of fuel and because of the high prices most traffic consists of bicycles, motorcycles and many betjaks (cycle taxi's), which are imported from Jakarta.

Another disadvantage of the modernization of the Baliem Valley is the decrease of traditional habits and culture. The koteka, the traditional penis covers, and the wear of the males and females, as well as the traditional housing, are disappearing fast in the Baliem Valley. Somewhat further from Wamena they can be found almost unchanged in the mountain villages of the Dani and Yali, the local tribes in the Baliem Valley. In Wamena some souvenir sellers force themselves in overdone and fake « traditional » wear, selling


products and souvenirs which they never used or had originally. It is of course all part of the process of civilization, but it is a sad development.

In the West of the Baliem Valley is Lake Habbema situated at an altitude of 3224 meter. At June 29 - July 29 1938 Richard Archbold visited the lake during his third expedition in New Guinea. In that time it must have taken much effort to reach the lake but nowadays it can be reached by four wheel drive in about one day travel.

Lelambo

A four-day visit was made in 2008 by three members of our survey team to the tiny village of Lelambo (Kabupaten Yahukimo), which lies at an altitude of 900 meter at the north side of the Jayawijaya Mountains. No entomological fieldwork had been undertaken at this site before. The area is surrounded by undisturbed forest and is rich in streams and runnels. From the short visit it is clear that the area is interesting and deserves more fieldwork. During three evenings insects were collected at light and during daytime dragonflies were collected.

Walmak

For the second time we paid a visit to Walmak, a small mountain village in District Nipsan (Kabupaten Yahukimo). We have been there before in 2005 and the reason for our return in 2008 was that particular this locality was a very successful one concerning collecting at light. And again Walmak proved to guarantee a very successful collecting site. We now went in another period of the year which resulted in many different species compared to 2005 and, as we yet can overview, also with many new species for science.

During day trips and collecting at light our photographer Joop Schaffers made many pictures of moths and other insects which will be presented in the website when appropriate. Collected material is stored at the ZMAN.

Foja Mountains (Gauttier Mountains)

The eastern part of the northern mountain range of Papua are the Foja or Gauttier Mountains. It is an almost unexplored area which seems very promissing for endemic faunistic founds and probably has a very high biodiversity. The area is a part of a large complex of national parks, together with the Mamberamo and Rouffaer Reserves. The large river of Mamberamo actually cuts the northern mountain range in two and forms the border between the eastern Foja Mountains and the western Van Rees Mountains. The highest mountain in Foja is 2193 meter. In this almost undisturbed area are hardly any villages of importance. At the base of the Foja Mountains, near Mamberamo River, is Dabra (formerly Batavia-bivak), a place where expeditions used to camp and still in use by recent expeditions. In the north, in the Mamberamo River complex, is Lake Rombebai, the largest lake of Papua.

No people have been at higher altitudes in the Foja Mountains before the expedition of November 2005, not even the local tribes, because they believe that these « holy grounds » are inhabited by « evil ghosts ». This means that the Foja Mountains have an undisturbed ecosystem, which is very interesting for ecologic and faunistic research. Animals, not used to any humans in this area, didn't show fear to the researchers of last expedition, a real paradise!

The area escaped from a disaster, since the plans of a hydroelectric power plant have been canceled. However, oil companies still have interest to explore the northern Mamberamo area in search for oil and pilot research (drilling) already took place. Let's hope that in the future the meaning « national reserve » not also means a reserve for minerals. The whole area needs a firm protection against economic exploration, including drilling and logging.

Bijlmer, A. ten Haaf, H. de Rook, J. Jongejans, P.F. Hubrecht, W.C. van Heurn, H.J. Lam and P. Droog (Indian Committee for Scientific Surveys).

2005 An inventorial expedition by LIPI and Conservation International of 12 specialists on all kind of animal and plant groups. The expedition was under supervision of ornithologist Bruce Beehler. The insects (mostly Lepidoptera) were investigated by Henk van Mastrigt. There were lots of discoveries of new species and rediscoveries of species expected to be extinct. More information on this expedition you will find on the website of Actionbioscience.

Cyclop Mountains

The Cyclop Mountains are a relatively small range of rather high mountains (highest peak 2158 meter) in the Northeast of Papua. It is an official National Park, but it is not clear


where this park should begin or where it ends. At the foot of the mountains it imperceptibly changes in urban area. The disadvantage of large cities in the neighbourhood is obvious. Pollution, busy traffic and a high pressure of recreation are deadly for the flora and fauna in the mountains. Nevertheless there are many interesting insects to be found in the area. Very striking is the dominant presence of the large Lake Sentani, with its extremely irregular coastline and deep waters. In the geological past Lake Sentani used to be a saltwater bay, but due to tectonic movements the « island of Cyclops » pushed itself on the coast of Papua, closing the entrance to sea. During the Second World War the American army cleared most of the hill tops around Lake Sentani to avoid sudden attacks by the Japanese. Since then the forest never recovered and the hills still show their bare tops. Fortunately the Cyclop Mountains were spared.

Major cities in the neighbourhood of the Cyclops are the capital city Jayapura, the airport city Sentani and the university cities Waena and Abepura. The cities are growing fast and take their toll of nature. However, fortunately there are some refugia of lowland rainforest left near Waena and Jembatan Dua. The mountain slopes are still rather undisturbed, but there is another danger. Immigrants from the interior (i.e. Wamena), used to logging, clearing the land and burning the forest for their own use, do not care about restrictions and laws of protection. Moreover, the authorities hardly care about these illegal logging and burning, even in the vicinity of larger cities. A maybe even devastating effect on the fauna is about to come since people released some Java monkeys in the mountains! New Guinea originally has no monkeys or large mammal predators. Introduction of such strange animals in the already fragile ecosystem of New Guinea will be disastrous, bringing strange diseases and unnatural predation and concurrence pressure on the population of indigenous animals.

Hollandia (Jayapura) being the capital city was one of the most regular visited places of Papua, together with Manokwari. Many explorers and naturalists therefore visited the Cyclop Mountains and one should think that this area will be an open book for scientists. However, notwithstanding all the scientific and touristic collection events that must have taken place the Cyclop Mountains still hides lots of secrets and continues to amaze scientists about its rich biodiversity. As mentioned in the preface of the main page, Papua is far behind i.e. Papua New Guinea for what entomological reporting is concerned. So close to the big cities, even the university of Waena, it must be a wonderful opportunity for students to work on insect registration and preservation!


1889 - For 9 years the German collector H. Kühn collected in New Guinea and the adjacent islands.

1892 - The English animal collector W. Doherty discovers that the Sentani Lake in fact is a lake and he explores the area around the Humboldt Bay and collected many birds and insects, of which mostly butterflies.

1903 - Scientific expedition of Sentani Lake and surrounding area by A. Wichmann, G.A.J. van der Sande, L.F. de Beaufort, H.A. Lorentz and J.M. Dumas of the Treub Company and the Royal Dutch Geographical Society (K.N.A.G.).

1907 - Felix and Charles Pratt spent months in the Cyclop Mountains at the Humboldt Bay.



1928 - Ernst Mayr, a German ornithologist, collected birds, mammals, plants and insects in the Cyclop Mountains.

1932 - Miss Lucy E. Cheesman visits the Cyclop Mountains to collect insects. She was the first female explorer in the area and it is especially remarkable because she travelled alone, in a time that it was not really save even for men.

1934 - W. Stüber collected flora and fauna for sale from the Humboldt Bay region and the backland of Hollandia (Jayapura) in May 1934 . Butterflies and moths where sold to BMNH, RMNH and to Dr. J.M.A. van Groenendael, who donated his large collection of Indonesian lepidoptera to the ZMAN.

1936 - Miss Cheesman joines the second Archbold Expedition in the Cyclop Mountains.

1939 - The fourth and last Archbold Expedition, or the New Guinea Expedition 1939 by the Royal Dutch Geographical Society, or the Le Roux Expedition, to the surroundings of Hollandia (Jayapura) (among others).

1993 - Expedition of the Zoological Museum of Amsterdam to the Cyclop Mountains and Ampas, by Arnold de Boer, Twan Rutten and Rob de Vos.

1996 - Expedition of the Zoological Museum of Amsterdam to the Cyclop Mountains, by Arnold de Boer, Gerrit Withaar, Piet Zumkehr, Herman de Jong and Rob de Vos.

2005 - Expedition of the Zoological Museum of Amsterdam and University of Cenderawasih to the Cyclop Mountains, by Rob de Vos, Gerrit Withaar, Piet Zumkehr, Jaap Zwier, Tomas Lackner and David Mannering.

Star Mountains

The Star Mountains form a mountain range which crosses the border with Papua New Guinea, where it is continued with the name Victor Emanuel Range. It contains some of the highest mountains of New Guinea like Mount Juliana (Peak Mandala, 4700 meter) and Mount Antares (4170 meter). The most important villages are Abmisibil and Mabilabol (Oksibil).

The district is rather isolated without any roads connected to the coast or larger cities. Transport is only possible on foot and by airplane and the AMA flies rather regularly to both villages, Abmisibil and Oksibil.

Although the area is cultivated in a close range around the villages there are wide areas of primary forests at distance from those villages. The main danger for nature is the hunting on Birds of Paradise, not only by the local inhabitans, but also on a rather large scale by people from PNG who cross the border without any impediment.

The more southern village Mabilabol is mentioned Oksibil by the Indonesians, a misinterpretation of the combination « Ok Sibil », which in fact means « River Sibil ». Like in Abmisibil the area is rather cultivated near the village, but less intensive. Another striking feature in Mabilabol is that it is settled in a wide flat highland valley (at 1300 meter), similar to that of the Baliem Valley. At the edges of this valley and on the mountain slopes there are wealthy primary mountain forests.


From the insects which are collected during historical and recent expeditions we can conclude that the Star Mountains have striking different fauna components than in other areas in the Central Mountains.


1909 - 1911 The first English South New Guinea expedition by W. Goodfellow, A.F.R. Wollaston, G.R. Shortridge, W. Stalker, Capt. C.G. Rawling, E.S. Marshall and N.I.L.H.A. Cramer (by the British Ornithological Union). They came in touch with small mountain papuas. Capt. Schaeffer reaches Mt. Goliath (Mt. Yamin) (in 1911 he reaches at 3340 m).

1959 - Expedition to the Star Mountains with L.D. Brongersma and G.F. Venema. Lepidoptera are collected in Mabilabol (Oksibil).

2005 - Expedition of the Zoological Museum of Amsterdam and University of Cenderawasih to the Star Mountains, Abmisibil and Mabilabol (Oksibil), by Rob de Vos, Gerrit Withaar, Piet Zumkehr, Jaap Zwier, Tomas Lackner and David Mannering.

Merauke and the TransFly Region

One would not expect a rather undisturbed area near such a relatively large town as Merauke in the south of New Guinea. All around Merauke, however, unexplored forested areas still exist. These lowland forests are in some cases very impervious and others much easier to penetrate. Close to the city the forest has, as to be expected, a more disturbed secundair character. In the east, attached to the border with Papua New Guinea is the WWF Wasur-Rawa Biru National Park, a large area of 412,387 ha, which is continued at the PNG side with the Tonda Wildlife Reserve. In the north National Park Danau Bian is located, an area of 69,390 ha. Together they are part of a much larger area in whole South New Guinea (including PNG), the TransFly region (about 2 million ha). The area contains lowland savanna, mangrove and monsoon forests.

The fauna and flora is remarkable divers for a lowland forest with a strong Australian character. Eucalyptus and Acacia are typical Australian elements. Northwards more real Papuan elements appear like Sago, at the coastal areas we find mangrove and Nipa palmforests.

The Indonesian government officially recognizes two tribes who inhabit the Wasur NP: the Marind and Kanum, with more than 3000 people in about 10 villages.

Entomological expeditions

1939 - R.G. Wind and his wife visited Fakfak and Merauke to collect butterflies and insects, which were sold to museums.

2007 - Henk van Mastrigt (KSP), together with students from UNCEN, collects Lepidoptera and Odonata in the surroundings of Merauke.

The Asmat Lowland Area

South of the Central Mountain Range of New Guinea is a large and wide area of lowland. It was formed by sedimental deposition for millions of years ago. This area is crossed by numerous rivers and river deltas, forming swamps, wetlands and mangrove forests. The



southern part of the coastal area is better known as the Casuarina Coast. The northern part of the area, bordered by the Sudirman and Jayawijaya Mountains, is a part of the Lorentz National Reserve, an important protected area for wildlife.

Of course the Asmat region is famous from the historical and cultural traditions. The woodcarvings of the shields and ornaments are world famous and very popular with tourists and collectors. The historical habits of cannibalism and other rituals is fascinating and still a subject to everybody's imagination. It is still believed that the famous Michael Clark Rockefeller, he was the youngest son of New York Governor (later Vice President) Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller, who dissappeared in this area on 17th November 1961, either drowned or was attacked by a shark or crocodile, but most favourite in the media was the believe that he was killed and eaten by local Asmat people as a revenge of a killing party of the Dutch patrols in 1958. The story goes that only his glasses were found in the forest near the place where he should have come to land.

Some of the most famous biological expeditions started in this area, like the three Dutch South New Guinea Expeditions and the English South New Guinea Expeditions, among which the Wollaston Expedition is probably the most famous and successful one. Collected material of these expeditions are stored in the natural history museums of London (BMNH), Amsterdam (ZMAN) and Leiden (RMNH).

The most important town in the area is Timika, nowadays with a busy transit airport. It is also the entrance to the commercial Freeport Mine in Tembagapura in the north. Secondly important is Agats, the actual capital city of the Asmat. In the wide area are many smaller villages, with or without airstrips, some only reachable by small boats.


1904 - 1905 The first Southwest New Guinea expedition (K.N.A.G.) on the Digoel River and the Setakwa River, by J.A. Kroesen, R.J. Posthumus Meyjes, E.J. de Rochemont, J.W.R. Koch and C. Moerman.

1905 - The second Southwest New Guinea expedition (K.N.A.G.) on the Digoel River by J.A. Kroesen and R.J. Posthumus Meyjes.

1907 - The first South New Guinea expedition by H.A. Lorentz, J.W. van Nouhuys, G.M. Versteeg and J.M. Dumas. Discovery of mountain papuas, « Pesegems ».

1909 - 1910 The second South New Guinea expedition by H.A. Lorentz, J.W. van Nouhuys, L.I.A.M. von Römer, R. Jaarman and D. Habbema. They reach the snow of Mt. Wilhelmina (Mt. Trikora).

1909 - 1911 The first English South New Guinea expedition by W. Goodfellow, A.F.R. Wollaston, G.R. Shortridge, W. Stalker, Capt. C.G. Rawling, E.S. Marshall and N.I.L.H.A. Cramer (by the British Ornithological Union). They came in touch with small mountain papuas.

1910 - Lieutenant Van der Bie, Postema and Dumas explore the Setakwa and Utakwa River. The famous naturalist A.S. Meek was accompanying them as a guest and collected many lepidoptera until March 1911.


1912 - 1913 - The third South New Guinea expedition by Capt. A. Franssen Herderschee, A.A. Pulle, P.P. Hubrecht, G.M. Versteeg, J.H. Sitanala and Lieutenant L.A. Snell. They reach the top of Mt. Wilhelmina (Mt. Trikora).

1912 - 1913 The second English South New Guinea expedition by Wollaston, C. Bowden Kloss, Capt. Rawling and Lieutenant A. van de Water, known as the Wollaston Expedition. They do not succeed in reaching the snow of Mt. Carstensz (Mt. Jaya) for 400 meters! Wollaston collects many lepidoptera of great importance on this expedition.

2009. Henk van Mastrigt (KEP) with biology students from UNCEN, in cooperation with WWF, went for an inventorial survey to the southern area of Mapi.

Molecular phylogenetics of Erebidae (Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea)

Zahiri et al, (2011)

Abstract. As a step towards understanding the higher-level phylogeny and evolutionary affinities of quadrifid noctuoid moths, we have undertaken the first large-scale molecular phylogenetic analysis of the moth family Erebidae, including almost all subfamilies, as well as most tribes and subtribes. DNA sequence data for one mitochondrial gene (COI ) and seven nuclear genes (EF-1a, wingless, RpS5, IDH, MDH, GAPDH and CAD) were analysed for a total of 237 taxa, principally type genera of higher taxa. Data matrices (6407 bp in total) were analysed by parsimony with equal weighting and model-based evolutionary methods (maximum likelihood), which revealed a well-resolved skeleton phylogenetic hypothesis with 18 major lineages, which we treat here as subfamilies of Erebidae. We thus present a new phylogeny for Erebidae consisting of 18 moderate to strongly supported subfamilies: Scoliopteryginae, Rivulinae, Anobinae, Hypeninae, Lymantriinae, Pangraptinae, Herminiinae, Aganainae, Arctiinae, Calpinae, Hypocalinae, Eulepidotinae, Toxocampinae, Tinoliinae, Scolecocampinae, Hypenodinae, Boletobiinae and Erebinae. Where possible, each monophyletic lineage is diagnosed by autapomorphic morphological character states, and within each subfamily, monophyletic tribes and subtribes can be circumscribed, most of which can also be diagnosed by morphological apomorphies. All additional taxa sampled fell within one of the four previously recognized quadrifid families (mostly into Erebidae), which are now found to include two unusual monobasic taxa from New Guinea: Cocytiinae (now in Erebidae: Erebinae) and Eucocytiinae (now in Noctuidae: Pantheinae).

Just recently the large family Noctuidae has been revised by DNA analysis at higher taxonomic level (Zahiri et al, 2011) which resulted in a new arrangement of the traditional subfamilies within Noctuidae, Erebidae,


Euteliidae and Nolidae. Former families as Lymantriidae and Arctiidae are now placed as subfamilies in the Erebidae. Although the DNA research at these taxa has not reached the end yet it has become clear that the new classification shows a more correct.
