The richness and abundance of representatives of Arctiini (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae) was studied considering 88 representative points of savanna in the Alter do Chão Environmental Protection Area (APA), in the municipality of Santarém, state of Pará, Brazil. Moths were sampled monthly from December 2014 to December 2016 (except May 2015), with a light trap, Pennsylvania model, during a new moon night from 6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. the following day. Abundance (N), richness (S) and diversity index (H’), Shannon uniformity (J’) index and Berger-Parker (BP) dominance were analyzed. Wealth estimators “Chao” (1st and 2nd order), “Jackknife” (1st and 2nd order) and “Bootstrap” were also used. A total of 1,375 specimens (N) belonging to 122 species (S) were captured. Idalusmulticolor (Rothschild, 1909) and Pheialateralis Klages, 1906 appear as new records for the Brazilian Amazon. The values for the analyzed parameters were H’= 3.25, J’= 0.67 and BP = 0.33. The estimators and “Bootstrap” (140) and “Jackknife 2nd order” (180) measured that between 14% and 33% of species can still be found, respectively, as shown by the species accumulation curve. The results of this study indicate changes in the faunal composition with an equivalent distribution of species between the Ctenuchina and Phaegopterina subtribes, quite different from anthropized and forested areas that present a predominance of Phaegopterina. In this way, the conservation of savanna fragments present in the APA Alter do Chão contributes to the maintenance of the local fauna and expands the knowledge of Arctiini in the Amazon.

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication
The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
