Butterflies (Lepidoptera) on Hill Prairies of Allamakee County, Iowa: A Comparison of the Late 1980s With 2013 [PDF]
In the late 1980s, several hundred butterflies were collected by John Nehnevaj from hill prairies and a fen in Allamakee County, Iowa. Nehnevaj’s collection included 69 species, 14 of which are currently listed in Iowa as species of greatest conservation

I am able to complete the history of M. phaeton, part of which I communicated to the Can. Ent. in Jan'y, 1869, vol. 1, p. 59.The eggs are laid in large clusters of from 200 to 400 each, upon the under side of leaves of chelone glabra. They are sub-conical, truncated, ribbed on upper half, yellow when laid, but soon turn to crimson. In 19 or 20 days, as

Priors and Posteriors in Bayesian Timing of Divergence Analyses: The Age of Butterflies Revisited
The need for robust estimates of times of divergence is essential for downstream analyses, yet assessing this robustness is still rare. We generated a time-calibrated genus-level phylogeny of butterflies (Papilionoidea), including 994 taxa, up to 10 gene

Body size and diet breadth drive local extinction risk in butterflies
Lepidoptera, butterflies and moths, are significant pollinators and ecosystem health indicators. Therefore, monitoring their diversity, distribution, and extinction risks are of critical importance.

THE NISONIADES BUTTERFLIES [PDF]
I write no less to elicit information, than to offer such as my limited material affords. In a very interesting and origional paper on Asymmetry, published by the Boston Soc. Nat. Hist. 1869-71, Messrs. Scudder and Burgess describe and figure the genital armor of all our species of Nisoniades, making seventeen species, of which nine are new.

The Butterfly lemma we present can be considered a reiteration theorem for differentials generated from a complex interpolation process for families of K the spaces. The lemma will be used to clarify the effect of different configurations in the resulting differential (because although interpolation is an orientation-free process, the obtention of ...

The determinants of genetic diversity in butterflies
Under the neutral theory, genetic diversity is expected to increase with population size. While comparative analyses have consistently failed to find strong relationships between census population size and genetic diversity, a recent study across animals
