An updated catalogue of the Geometridae (Lepidoptera: Geometroidea) from Chile. Part I: Archiearinae, Geometrinae and Sterrhinae [PDF]
The Geometridae are the second most diverse family of Lepidoptera. Seven subfamilies of geometrid moths have been recognized worldwide, and five of those have been recorded in Chile.

The mitochondrial genomes of the Geometroidea (Lepidoptera) and their phylogenetic implications. [PDF]
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.

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

A new species of Eupithecia Curtis (Lepidoptera, Geometridae) from the Andes of northern Chile [PDF]
Eupithecia copaquillaensis sp. nov. (Lepidoptera, Geometridae, Larentiinae, Eupitheciini) is described and illustrated. Adults of this new species were discovered using a light trap in the Copaquilla ravine, at about 2800 m elevation on the western slope

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

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.

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.
