On the use of ultraviolet photography and ultraviolet wing patterns in butterfly morphology and taxonomy [PDF]
, 2000 In a series of feeding experiments we found that, depending on the larval food plant species or part of food plant ingested, individuals of the blue butterfly Polyommatus icarus (Lycaenidae) exhibit broad variation of wing patterns in the ultraviolet (UV)

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 ...

Forest Type as a Key Driver of Butterfly Species Diversity
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Forest types and complex vegetation structures are key factors in promoting butterfly diversity. While considerable studies represent the checklists of butterfly species across various forest types in Bangladesh, the influence of different forest types on butterfly species diversity remains unexplored. To explore this, we conducted the study from April

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

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 6, Page 1137-1147, December 2025.Our results show that ants reduced leaf herbivory on plants offering both EFN and trophobiotic insects. Although ants did not directly affect pollinator behaviour, leaf herbivory in plants hosting treehoppers indirectly influenced pollination by reducing both visit duration and frequency.
