Physical and Behavioral Adaptations to Prevent Overheating of the Living Wings of Butterflies [PDF]
The wings of Lepidoptera contain a matrix of living cells whose function requires appropriate temperatures. However, given their small thermal capacity, wings can overheat rapidly in the sun. Here we analyze butterfly wings across a wide range of simulated environmental conditions, and find that regions containing living cells are maintained at cooler ...

Lepidoptera systematics: current and future research priorities It will require very considerable resource investments on the part of the systematic lepidopterists' community to cope with the predicted doubling-to-quadrupling of the recognized species numbers. Not only will the descriptive/analytical phase itself be demanding, so will also the initial

Using Noninvasive Genetic Sampling to Survey Rare Butterfly Populations
Advances in nondestructive genetic sampling techniques continue to offer new opportunities for studying organisms, particularly those of conservation concern where more traditional invasive sampling methods are often not available.

ALLOW us to correct a slight error in the address of the President of the Royal Society, as reported in NATURE last week. He speaks of the “completion” of the “Lepidoptera of Ceylon” having been presented to the Library, whereas it is only the first of the three volumes of that work which is as yet complete.
