| Luxiaria mitorrhaphes Prout, 1925 | |
Luxiaria mitorrhaphes is a moth in the family Geometridae first described by Louis Beethoven Prout in 1925. It is found from the Himalayas to Japan, Taiwan, Myanmar, Borneo and Java. [1]
Prout's hypothesis was an early 19th-century attempt to explain the existence of the various chemical elements through a hypothesis regarding the internal structure of the atom. In 1815 and 1816, the English chemist William Prout published two papers in which he observed that the atomic weights that had been measured for the elements known at that time appeared to be whole multiples of the atomic weight of hydrogen. He then hypothesized that the hydrogen atom was the only truly fundamental object, which he called protyle, and that the atoms of other elements were actually groupings of various numbers of hydrogen atoms.
