Spatial Synchrony in Wisconsin Karner Blue (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) Populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We analyzed geographic patterns of Karner blue (Lycaeides melissa samuelis Nabokov, Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) population fluctuations in summer broods in central and northwestern Wisconsin and spring+summer broods in central Wisconsin. We removed possible

Egg Adhesion of the Codling Moth Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae) to Synthetic Substrates

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 2, Page 243-253, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Previous studies on Cydia pomonella eggs have demonstrated reliable egg adhesion to the leaves and fruits of various apple cultivars. In contrast to biological substrates, this study is focused on standardised synthetic substrates to measure egg pull‐off forces and determine adhesive strength, allowing for an unbiased comparison with other ...

Sexual differences in the morphology and movement of a butterfly: Good shape does not make good dispersers

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2019
Movements are involved in several routine processes and may scale up to important ecological processes such as dispersal. However, movement is affected by a wealth of factors including flight capacity and behavioural traits. Both frequently differ in the

A complete record from colonization to extinction reveals density dependence and the importance of winter conditions for a population of the silvery blue, Glaucopsyche lygdamus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Butterflies in the family Lycaenidac are often the focus of conservation efforts. However, our understanding of lycaenid population dynamics has been limited to relatively few examples of long-term monitoring data that have been reported.

Myrmica sabuleti (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) not necessary for the survival of the population of Phengaris (Maculinea) arion (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) in eastern Poland: Lower host-ant specificity or evidence for geographical variation of an endangered social parasite?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2008
Larvae and pupae of the obligatorily myrmecophilous Phengaris (Maculinea) arion were found for the first time in nests of Myrmica rugulosa, M. hellenica and M. schencki at a site in eastern Poland. M.

The Coevolution of Colour Patterns and Hindwing Shapes on a Large Phylogenetic Scale Reveals Predation‐Driven Adaptive Syndromes in Swallowtail Butterflies

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
By combining computer vision and morphometrics on museum specimens, we show that hindwing tail shape and colour patterns evolved in concert across swallowtails. Long‐tailed species display contrasted stripes and marginal spots, suggesting coevolution of deflective traits promoted by natural selection by predators.
