Abstract

The complete life history of Trogonoptera brookiana albescens is documented for the first time in Malaysia. It serves to show the success of breeding this supposedly highland species on the edge of lowland forest where the host, Aristolochia foveolata (Aristolochiaceae) can also adapt to lowland conditions.
