Abstract

The present paper shows the first records of butterflies Nymphalidae of the Caldera de Lubá (Bioko Island). Seven from the 46 species showed, Cymothoe althea, C. consanguis, C. capella, Lachnoptera anticlia, Amauris vashti, Bicyclus golo and Bicyclus neustetteri, represent the first cites of Bioko. From these species only Lachnoptera anticlia, Amauris vashti and Cymothoe capella are cited in Continental Region, but for others also represent the first cites of Equatorial Guinea. Several measures of richness and diversity were used (Marga- lef, Simpson, Shannon-Weaver), showing all high values.
