Genomic Insights Into Species Delimitation and the Evolutionary History of Mimetic <i>Aletis</i> Moths (Lepidoptera, Geometridae) in the Afrotropics. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We investigated the evolutionary history and species boundaries of diurnal Aletis moths in the Afrotropics using mitochondrial DNA and genome‐wide SNP data. Our results support five distinct species, with divergence dating back to 0.9 million years ago, influenced by climate‐driven isolation and habitat variation.

Consistent Trait Patterns in a Hyper Diverse Moth Clade Along a Western Himalayan Elevational Gradient. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
This study examines how Geometrid moth assemblages along a 1500‐m elevational gradient in the western Himalayas respond to temperature and air density shifts. While species diversity declines with elevation and turnover occurs from low to high elevations, no significant changes in morphological or flight traits were observed at the assemblage level ...

Cleorodes Warren, 1894 does not belong in the tribe Boarmiini (Lepidoptera: Geometridae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2007
The geometrid genus Cleorodes is shown to belong in the tribe Gnophini (sensu lato) and not in Boarmiini as previously assumed. The conclusion is based on an analysis of morphological characters of a number of genera in these tribes. Moreover, the result
