Butterfly species diversity and their floral preferences in the Rupa Wetland of Nepal. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 We assessed the number of butterfly species, their abundance, and their floral foraging behavior, from 28 linear transects (500 m long each) placed in a stratified and random manner throughout the study area. Five factors, that is, category of plant, flower color, corolla shape, corolla depth, and the proboscis length of butterfly species, were taken ...

Forest Type as a Key Driver of Butterfly Species Diversity
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Forest types and complex vegetation structures are key factors in promoting butterfly diversity. While considerable studies represent the checklists of butterfly species across various forest types in Bangladesh, the influence of different forest types on butterfly species diversity remains unexplored. To explore this, we conducted the study from April
