The First Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Common Hedge Blue <i>Acytolepis puspa</i> (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae), and Comparative Genomic Analysis Within Polyommatinae. [PDF]
This study firstly reports the complete mitochondrial genome of Acytolepis puspa, providing an important mitogenomic reference for the previously unrepresented genus Acytolepis. ABSTRACT The butterfly genus Acytolepis (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae: Polyommatinae) is widely distributed in the Indomalayan and Australasian realms.

Seasonal Variation of Butterfly Diversity in Subtropical Urban Forests of Nepal. [PDF]
Butterflies show seasonal fluctuations in diversity and population in response to bioclimatic factors. Studying butterflies in three urban forests in the subtropical region of Nepal, we found that the diversity and community composition differed significantly across seasons, with richness and diversity peaking during the monsoon and abundance peaking ...

Distinctive gene expression in the reduced first thoracic legs of a nymphalid butterfly. [PDF]
Transcriptome analysis reveals that the small non‐walking front legs of a butterfly have distinct gene expression to the four walking legs. Reduced front legs express a gene with putative mechanosensory roles, a blue‐sensitive opsin and two homeobox genes.

Impact of the invasive ant Linepithema humile on native ant assemblages on the western slopes of Table Mountain and implications for ant-butterfly associations [PDF]
The Argentine Ant, Linepithema humile (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), is one of the world's most successful invasive species and invades undisturbed Fynbos habitats in South Africa, displacing native arthropod species and affecting interspecific associations.
