Abstract

Sleeping behavior is poorly documented in Lepidoptera, not to mention sleeping aggregations. In this study, I report for the first time the sleeping behavior of Sallya madagascariensis (Boisduval, 1833), a rare Nymphalidae species found in Madagascar. Notably, we observed that individuals of this species exhibit aggregation behavior during their nighttime resting periods. They were found resting on the undersides of leaves in a vertical position, typically at a height of three to four meters on the tree.

Amblyomma helvolum Koch is a reptile- associated bont tick native to the Oriental and Australasian regions. This account reports host records of A. helvolum collected during the 2017 herpetological expedition in Sorsogon province. In addition, tick specimens from a dead king cobra collected in 2023 were included representing the first record of A. helvolum parasitizing Ophiophagus hannah (Elapidae) in the Philippines. Also, this paper represents the first published account of reptile-associated tick collected in Sorsogon province, Luzon Island, the Philippines. An updated list of squamate hosts of A. helvolum in the Philippines is also provided.
