A New Taxonomic Placement of <i>Cochylis discerta</i> (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) to <i>Falseuncaria</i> Supported by Congruent Mitogenomic and Morphological Evidence. [PDF]
By integrating comprehensive mitogenomic sequencing with detailed morphological examinations, we demonstrate a strong case for transferring Cochylis discerta from its current genus to Falseuncaria. Four complete mitogenomes of Cochylini species are sequenced and analyzed for the first time here.

Male genitalia variability in Craniophora ligustri (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae: Acronictinae)
Craniophora ligustri is the most widely distributed species within the genus Craniophora. We used geometric morphometry to assess the shape variation of male valvae in the Western Palaearctic and Russian Far East populations of C. ligustri including the subspecies C. l. carbolucana and C. l. hyrcanica.

The male genitalia segments in fritillary butterflies: Comparative morphology with special reference to the "rectal plate" in Issoria (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) [PDF]
The histology and internal morphology of the male valve in a broad sample of Fritillary butterflies are examined. A large internal ridge to which the extensor of the valve muscle fastens is probably an autapomorphy for the tribe Argynnini. A large glandular pocket is found in the valves of all examined Heliconiinae, but is missing in other examined ...

Alternative techniques to study characters of the genitalia in Lepidoptera [PDF]
The present note aims to describe two alternative methods for observing genitalia in Lepidoptera. The first one provides means to examine both male and female genitalia without spoiling the scales of the abdomen, preserving it attached to the thorax and aesthetically similar to an unexamined specimen.
