Nocturnal Lepidopterans as Essential Pollinators of Aspidosperma pyrifolium (Apocynaceae), a Keystone Tree in the Caatinga Dry Forest

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pollination is a key ecosystem service, yet most studies focus on diurnal interactions, often overlooking nocturnal pollinators such as hawkmoths and settling moths. In arid environments, nocturnal pollination plays a crucial role in maintaining native plant species of high biocultural value, as seen in the Caatinga dry forest.

Pollinator‐dependence and specialization in three sunbird‐pollinated, fire‐stimulated flowering species

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Through field observations and experimental verification, we found that three bird‐pollinated plant species with fire‐stimulated flowering specialize in, and heavily depend on, sunbirds for pollination and reproduction. Abstract Fires dramatically reduce both floral resources and pollinator abundance, potentially compromising flowering plant ...

Genomic analysis of Plebejus Kluk (Lycaenidae: Polyommatinae) clarifies taxonomy within Europe

Systematic Entomology, EarlyView.
The first genomic analysis for the genus Plebejus in Europe is presented, based on ddRAD sequencing data comprising all European Plebejus plus some Asian and North American taxa. Plebejus idas is recovered as paraphyletic, Plebejus corsicus as a subspecies of Plebejus argus and Plebejus villai as a population of Plebejus bellieri, totalling 4 species ...

Phylogeny, systematics and evolution of mimicry patterns in Neotropical limenitidine butterflies

Systematic Entomology, EarlyView.
The most comprehensive phylogeny for Adelpha reveals that it is not monophyletic, supporting the description of the new genus Adelphina for the alala‐group. The rate of mimicry evolution increases towards the tropics, consistent with the hypothesis of stronger biotic interactions near the equator.
