RESUMO

A study was undertaken of 21 species of butterflies of the genus Actinote (I nsecta: Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) [Actínote a/alia C. &R. Felder, 1860; Actínote brylla Oberthür, 1917; Actínote canutía (Hopffer, 1874); Actínote carycina Jordan, 1913; Actínote oonspícua Jordan, 1913; Actínote díscrepans D Almeida, 1935; Actínote genítrix D Almeida 1923; Actínote hyalina Jordan, 1913; Actínote mamita mitama (Schaus, 1902); Actinote mario Oberthür, 1917; Actinote paraphe/es Jordan, 1913; Actinote pellenea pellenea Hübner, 1821-24; Actinote quadra (Schaus, 1902); Actinote rhodope D Almeida, 1922; Actinote surima Schaus, 1902; Actinote thalía pyrrha (Fabricius, 1775); Actinote zikani Almeida, 1943; Actinote sp. 1; Actinote sp. 2; Actinote sp. 3; Actinote sp. 4], and 47 species of larval food plants in the genera: Mikania, Eupatorium, Trichogonia, Symphyopappus, Erigeron, Senecio e Vernonia (Angiosperma: Magnolíatae: Asteraceae) in the region between 21°40 - 24°00 S and 44°30 -47°00 W, with about 65.000 km2 and crossed by the Tropic of Capricorn (thus transitional between tropical and sub-tropical climates). Four species had an ample distribution in entire area: A.carycina, A.thalia pyrrha, A.parapheles, and A.hyalina. Five occupied a very restricted area: A.quadra, Actinote sp. 3, A.mario, and Actinote sp. 4. The geographical distribution of each species of Actinote was analyzed and related with the follow environmental characteristics: type of geological terrain, class of altitude and relief heterogeneity, type of soils, mean yearly pluviometric precipitation and hydric excess, vegetation types and classes of anthropic influence. ...
