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.

Variation in the genitalia of the butterfly Maniola jurtina (Lepidoptera: Satyrinae) [PDF]
The genilalia of animals, particularly insects, are extremely useful taxonomic characters, for they are highly conserved within species yet generally diverge rapidly during specialion: often the only reliable means of separating sibling species is via the morphology of the genilalia.

Muscles of the Male Genitalia in the Butterfly Subfamily Aphnaeinae (Lepidoptera, Lycaenidae)
Abstract The morphology of the skeleton and musculature of the male genitalia of the subfamily Aphnaeinae (Lycaenidae), distributed mainly in the Afrotropical Region, were studied and compared with those in other ancient taxa of the family Lycaenidae.

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.

Siblings in Flight: Unravelling Reproductive Barriers Between Two Butterfly Sister Species [PDF]
Using an integrative approach, we combine genetic, genome synteny and cytogenetic analyses, Wolbachia screening and morphology to assess the evolutionary history of two butterfly sister species (Erebia palarica and Erebia meolans) and elucidate their potential reproductive barriers.
