提供了关于印度-澳大利亚热带长鳞翅目动物群的丰富度和各科的比例代表的数据。家庭的总体多样性和多样性都随着纬度和与主要陆地地区的隔绝而下降。注意到例外情况。来自定量捕光器样本的阿尔法多样性测量表明，热带地区的多样性通常在海拔1000米左右最大，高于这一水平则下降。太平洋群岛的多样性要低得多。由于干扰和转向农业而造成的多样性丧失是明显和显著的。讨论了利用光陷阱测量多样性时存在的问题，并以不同类型的光陷阱测量结果为例进行了说明。研究了栖息地类型对家庭比例的影响。家庭多样性一般随着海拔高度和干扰以及转向农业而减少，尽管这种下降也有例外。
Data are presented on the richness of Macrolepidoptera faunas in the Indo-Australian tropics, and on the proportional representation of the various families. Both overall diversity and diversity of families decline with latitude and also with isolation from major land areas. Exceptions are noted. Measures of alpha-diversity from quantitative light-trap samples indicate that diversity within the tropics is often greatest at altitudes around 1000 m, declining above that level. Diversity is much lower in Pacific archipelagos. Loss of diversity through disturbance and conversion to agriculture is evident and marked. Problems in the measurement of diversity with light-traps are discussed, exemplified by results obtained using different trap types. Changes in family proportions with habitat type are examined. Family diversity generally decreased with altitude and with disturbance and conversion to agriculture, though there are exceptions to this decline.
