Egg Formation in Lepidoptera [PDF]

Journal of Insect Science, 2009
Reproductive biology in the Twentieth Century produced comprehensive descriptions of the mechanisms of egg formation in most of the major orders of insects. While many general principles of ovarian development and physiology emerged, every order turned out to have a set of its own special motifs.

Contrasting patterns of evolutionary constraint and novelty revealed by comparative sperm proteomic analysis in Lepidoptera

BMC Genomics, 2017
BackgroundRapid evolution is a hallmark of reproductive genetic systems and arises through the combined processes of sequence divergence, gene gain and loss, and changes in gene and protein expression.

Giant sperm in a Neotropical moth Xenosoma geometrina (Lepidoptera: Arctiidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2000
The stereotypical sperm is characterised as being tiny but produced in great quantities. However a few species (frequently insects) produce much larger spermatozoa, probably with an associated cost in reduced numbers per ejaculate.

Characterisation of sixteen additional polymorphic microsatellite loci for the spreading but locally rare European butterfly, Brenthis ino (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2015
Whilst the overall geographic range of the lesser marbled fritillary, Brenthis ino (Rottemburg, 1775), is currently expanding, this species is patchily distributed at a local spatial scale due to its use of flower rich semi-natural meadows and the ...
