“The Lepidoptera of Ceylon” [PDF]
THE Colonial Government has recently presented to the library of this establishment Parts I. and II. of the work above named, for the publication of which it granted a large sum of public money. The origin of the book was the existence here at Peradeniya of a very fine series of original drawings made during a course of years by the well-known ...

The Species Richness of Lepidoptera in a Fragmented Landscape: A Supplement to the Checklist of Moths of Butler County, Ohio [PDF]
Land conversion for agriculture or urban expansion has fragmented the midwestern landscape and isolated native biotas in remnant habitat patches. Identification of priority renmants to be targeted for conservation, however, requires an understanding of ...

Lepidoptera and Migration [PDF]
THE subject of migration in connection with Lepidoptera is beginning to receive some attention at the hands of our best lepidopterologists. I am decidedly of opinion that the abundance or scarcity of many species of Lepidoptera is largely regulated by migrations from abroad.

Rapid divergence of the ecdysone receptor in Diptera and Lepidoptera suggests coevolution between ECR and USP-RXR [PDF]
Ecdysteroid hormones are major regulators in reproduction and development of insects, including larval molts and metamorphosis. The functional ecdysone receptor is a heterodimer of ECR (NR1H1) and USP-RXR (NR2B4), which is the orthologue of vertebrate retinoid X receptors (RXR alpha, beta, gamma).

A practical guide to CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing in Lepidoptera
CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing has revolutionized functional genetic work in many organisms and is having an especially strong impact in emerging model systems. Here we summarize recent advances in applying CRISPR/Cas9 methods in Lepidoptera, with a focus on

Nomenclatural faux pas for Speyeria atlantis greyi Moeck, 1950 (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) [PDF]
Nomenclatural errors associated with the nymphalid butterfly, Speyeria atlantis greyi Moeck, have persisted in the literature and electronic databases. We present here a synonymy of the various combinations and misspellings associated with it and clearly
