Balancing Barcoding and Genomics: gDNA Quality in Insect Vouchers After HotSHOT DNA Extraction
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT DNA extraction with an alkaline buffer system called ‘HotSHOT’ is widely used for barcoding because it is rapid, inexpensive, and voucher preserving, but it remains unclear whether sufficient genomic DNA (gDNA) remains in small vouchers for downstream use in genomics.

Rhythmic Signaling of Ants and Butterflies With Varying Degrees of Myrmecophily
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1556, Issue 1, February 2026.Myrmecophilous butterflies evolved diverse adaptations to communicate with ants, including acoustic ones. We analyzed the rhythmic properties of vibroacoustic signals in two ant and nine butterfly species differing in myrmecophily. Highly myrmecophilous species and ants shared complex rhythmic structures (isochrony, double meter), suggesting convergent

Boletín de la Asociación Española de EntomologíaPseudophilotes panoptes (Hübner [1813]) es un Lycaenidae endémico de la península ibérica cuya fenología no está completamente definida. Aunque tradicionalmente se considera univoltina, algunos autores han documentado ejemplares adultos en periodos fuera

Ecology 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.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 93-105, January 2026.We tested how elevation and microclimate influenced butterfly–flower interaction networks at the hottest time of year in a Mediterranean mountain range. Interactions were dominated at all sites by one or two abundant butterfly and flower species, but butterfly networks were more robust to plant species loss at higher elevations. Nectar availability may

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 172-184, January 2026.Phengaris butterflies depend on specific wetland habitats, host plants and ant species, making them highly vulnerable and protected across Europe. Population genomics and resistance mapping combined to assess genetic structure and habitat connectivity in fragmented landscapes.

Genomic analysis of Plebejus Kluk (Lycaenidae: Polyommatinae) clarifies taxonomy within Europe
Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.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 ...
