Abstract
The present study was
conducted at Department of Life Sciences, Saradar Patel Campus, Maharaja Krishnakumarsinhji
Bhavnagar University, Bhavnagar, Gujarat. Study contribute to understand
comparative morphological structure of eggs of different families of order
Lepidoptera. Lepidoptera, an order of class insecta stands for moths and
butterflies with 2, 55,000-2,65,000 worldwide reported species or more and
likely similar number of unreported species. Among which 12,000 species of
moths and 1800 species of butterflies have been represented by India. It is
first comparative study of morphological structure of eggs of order Lepidoptera
in Bhavnagar. Selected site was surveyed from December 2021 – December 2022. 4 eggs
of different families of butterfly were yield as a result of present study. Across
this study we found 4 eggs of different species of butterfly; they are unique
and different in their own shape, size, colour, texture and live bases but
represent common super family Papilionoidea. This study will helpful to know about adaptation performed by different
species of butterfly for their survival in ecosystem and also play valuable role
in aspect of conservation.
