Abstract

The immature stages of two pterophorids, Deuterocopus socotranus Rebel and Nippoptilia minor Hori, are redescribed based on specimens collected from Cayratia trifolia (Vitaceae) in Thailand. This host plant is recorded for N. minor for the first time. Similar morphological features of these two species and identification of D. socotranus are discussed in the taxonomic point of view.
