A primary foodplant for larvae of &lt;em&gt;Attacus aurantiacus&lt;/em&gt; W. ROTHSCHILD, 1895 was found by F. Taschner on the island of Kai Kecil in May 1995, cf. N&amp;auml;ssig &amp;amp; Taschner (1996). The plant has been identified being most probably &lt;em&gt;Ficus &lt;/em&gt;sp. (Ficeae), cf. Paukstadt &amp;amp; Paukstadt (2014). Very recently the senior author identified a further primary foodplant for this rare species of the genus &lt;em&gt;Attacus &lt;/em&gt;LINNAEUS, 1767 on the same island: &lt;em&gt;Polyscias nodosa &lt;/em&gt;(BLUME) SEEM. of the genus &lt;em&gt;Polyscias &lt;/em&gt;J. R. FORST. &amp;amp; G. FORST. (Araliaceae). The genus &lt;em&gt;Polyscias &lt;/em&gt;contains more than 150 species. &lt;em&gt;P. nodosa&lt;/em&gt; is a medium-sized generally unbranched tree growing to 30 m and attaining 50 cm in diameter. Vernacular names commonly used in the Moluccas are papaya hutan, kayu pohon papaya, and patah tulang. The distribution is Pal&amp;auml;otropic from tropical Africa to the Pacific region. &lt;em&gt;P. nodosa&lt;/em&gt; is found scattered in primary or more often in secondary evergreen or deciduous forests below 1000 m of altitude. The highest elevation on the island of Kai Kecil is below 100 m. In the wilderness and in the villages of Kai Island the larvae of &lt;em&gt;A. aurantiacus&lt;/em&gt; have been never found on &amp;ldquo;traditional&amp;rdquo; foodplants thus far, which are known for &lt;em&gt;A. atlas&lt;/em&gt; (LINNAEUS, 1758) from Southeast Asia (e.g., &lt;em&gt;Psidium guajava&lt;/em&gt; L. (Myrtaceae), &lt;em&gt;Persea americana&lt;/em&gt; MILL. (Lauraceae), &lt;em&gt;Citrus &lt;/em&gt;L. (Rutaceae), and many others). P. nodosa has been recorded as one of the very few known primary food plants of &lt;em&gt;A. crameri &lt;/em&gt;C. &amp;amp; R. FELDER, 1861 from the islands of Ambon and Seram, Moluccas, too, cf. Paukstadt &amp;amp; Paukstadt (2017). A second species of the genus &lt;em&gt;Polyscias &lt;/em&gt;was observed being present on the island of Kai Kecil which remains unidentified at the time being. The early stages of &lt;em&gt;A. aurantiacus&lt;/em&gt; were not confirmed at this tree species, thus far.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
