Tipulodes annae Przybyłowicz, 2003 (Lepidoptera, Erebidae), citizen science and its rediscovery in the wild. [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2021
We report here the rediscovery of Tipulodes annae Przybyłowicz, 2003 (Erebidae, Arctiinae), which was originally collected in 1924 and has been unseen and not collected in 84 years, until 2008. We also report this species’ first record

Spatial habitat heterogeneity influences host–pathogen dynamics in a patchy population of Ranchman's tiger moth

open access: yesEcology, Volume 104, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Host–pathogen dynamics are influenced by many factors that vary locally, but models of disease rarely consider dynamics across spatially heterogeneous environments. In addition, theory predicts that dispersal will influence host–pathogen dynamics of populations that are linked, although this has not been examined empirically in natural systems.

Not just the sum of its parts: Geographic variation and nonadditive effects of pyrazines in the chemical defence of an aposematic moth

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 36, Issue 7, Page 1020-1031, July 2023., 2023
We investigated the within‐ and between‐population variability in chemical defence of the wood tiger moth (Arctia plantaginis). The major components of its defences, SBMP (2‐sec‐butyl‐3‐methoxypyrazine) and IBMP (2‐isobutyl‐3‐methoxypyrazine), are volatiles that deter bird attacks.

Phylogeny of the Poritiinae (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae), butterflies with ant associations and unusual lichenivorous diets

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 422-433, July 2023., 2023
We present a well‐resolved molecular phylogeny of the lycaenid subfamily Poritiinae based on 14 genes from 177 taxa. We confirm the division of the subfamily into two tribes, and divide the Liptenini tribe into six subtribes, including the new subtribe Cooksoniina. The common ancestor of the Poritiini tribe was likely Asian, while that of the Liptenini

Evolutionary history of Euteliidae (Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 445-462, July 2023., 2023
We elucidated evolutionary relationships of Euteliidae. The divergence time estimated Euteliidae ancestors originated about 53 Ma. Malpighiales are inferred to be ancestral larval hostplant order for Euteliidae. Abstract We performed a molecular phylogenetic analysis on the family Euteliidae to clarify deep divergences and elucidate evolutionary ...
