Endemic but not eroded: Genomic distinctiveness and conservation genomics of the British swallowtail butterfly (Papilio machaon britannicus)

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Through whole‐genome sequencing of P. machaon populations across Europe, we demonstrate that P. m. britannicus forms a genetically distinct and isolated lineage. Demographic modelling revealed weak historical gene flow from the continent. Although P. m.

Evolución y mantenimiento del melanismo industrial en los lepidóptera

, 1999
La presencia de formas oscuras en muchas especies de lepidópteros en regiones urbanas afectadas por la contaminación se denomina melanismo industrial. Desde hace mucho tiempo, los casos de melanismo industrial han sido citados como unos de los mejores ...

Distinctive gene expression in the reduced first thoracic legs of a nymphalid butterfly

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Transcriptome analysis reveals that the small non‐walking front legs of a butterfly have distinct gene expression to the four walking legs. Reduced front legs express a gene with putative mechanosensory roles, a blue‐sensitive opsin and two homeobox genes.

Daily Rhythms of Sex Pheromone Emission and Courtship Behaviour in the Neotropical Brown Stink Bug Euschistus heros

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding the chemical and behavioural ecology of the Neotropical brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), is essential for developing effective integrated pest management (IPM) strategies in South American soybean production. This study investigated the courtship behaviour and diel periodicity of sex pheromone emission.

Development of PCR, LAMP and HRM‐Based Molecular Species Diagnostic Tools for Identifying Four Agricultural Pests in the Genus Helicoverpa (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Within the subfamily Heliothinae, the genus Helicoverpa comprises several highly destructive agricultural pests, including H. armigera, H. assulta, H. punctigera and H. zea. These species cause significant global crop losses due to their wide host range, long‐distance migratory behaviour, and potential for interspecific hybridization.

Establishing Baseline Information for the Risk of Flatheaded Borer Attack in Specialty Tree Crops Using Trapping and On‐Farm Surveys

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flatheaded borers (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) are largely xylophagous insects. Larvae of flatheaded borers tunnel into the trunks of trees, with boring and feeding damage eventually appearing on the surface as discolored bark, sunken areas, bark splits or bark sloughing.
