Abstract Larval feeding by the moth genus Ogmograptis (Bucculatricidae: Lepidoptera) creates one of the most iconic features of the Australian bush—the ‘scribbles’ found on smooth‐barked Eucalyptus. The taxonomic history of Ogmograptis has been challenging, with members of the genus being initially described in four different genera representing three ...

Museomics of a rare taxon: placing Whalleyanidae in the Lepidoptera Tree of Life
We highlight the usefulness of whole‐genome sequencing of museum specimens in order to infer the phylogenetic positions of rare and difficult to collect taxa. We showcase the utility of a museomics approach by providing the first extensive genomic dataset for the enigmatic genus Whalleyana, endemic to Madagascar, and find it to be sister to ...
