Systematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 618-632, October 2023., 2023 We used up to 1000 protein‐coding genes extracted from whole genome shotgun sequencing data to understand deep nodes of Geometridae moths. We raise Eumeleini to subfamily rank as Eumeleinae stat.nov. We treat Orthostixinae as a junior synonym of Desmobatrhinae syn.nov. Abstract Geometrid moths, the second largest radiation of Lepidoptera, have been the

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 649-657, September 2023., 2023 We studied 1102 species of geometridae moths along a continuous tropical rainforests gradient in Papua New Guinea, from 200 m lowland to 3700 m asl timberline forest. We recorded a mid‐elevational peak for the geometridae moths, with 1200 m asl as the most species‐rich elevation.

Journal of Morphology, Volume 284, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023 This study investigates the developmental processes that lead to wing reduction and vestigial wing morphology in winter geometrid moths. Our findings suggest that the extent and location of cell death in pupal wings contribute significantly to the patterns of wing reduction in moths.

The mitochondrial genomes of the Geometroidea (Lepidoptera) and their phylogenetic implications
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 In this study, we determined nine mitochondrial genomes for the Geometridae for the first time. A tRNA gene rearrangement was recognized in S. indicataria, which represents the first gene rearrangement reported for Geometroidea and is also unique in Lepidoptera.
