A complete COI library of Samoan butterflies reveals layers of endemic diversity on oceanic islands
Zoologica Scripta, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 315-330, July 2023., 2023 Abstract We investigated the entire butterfly fauna of the Samoan Archipelago (Pacific Ocean) by combining COI barcode sequences for specimens from these islands with those available in repositories at larger biogeographic scale. Haplotype networks and a generalized mixed Yule‐coalescent (GMYC) model were applied to identify evolutionary significant ...

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 621-632, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Tropical rainforests including high mountains are the most diverse terrestrial ecosystems. The ecology of tropical insects has been documented, but there is still a knowledge gap on insect diversity within certain underexplored regions such as the Afrotropical Mountains.

Land‐use change differentially affects endemic, forest and open‐land butterflies in Madagascar
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 15, Issue 5, Page 606-620, September 2022., 2022 Land‐use types with woody vegetation host a high diversity of endemic and forest butterflies and rice paddies and herbaceous fallows are rich in open‐land butterflies. Fallow‐derived vanilla agroforests hosted more endemic and forest species compared to herbaceous fallows and rice paddies. Preserving a diversity of small‐scale land‐use types, including

The Canadian Entomologist, 1891 At different times considerable attention has been paid to the general darkening in colour of our British insects, compared with Centrall European and with American forms. In Britian, many species become much darker(some absolutely black) on various parts of the West Coasts of Ireland and Great Britian, and, as a general rule, the more humid districts ...

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 34, Issue 9, Page 1362-1375, September 2021., 2021 One of the core pre‐requisites for maintaining adaptive phenotypic plasticity is that the environment should be predictable. We tested this hypothesis by sampling three communities of Mycalesina butterflies, where many species exhibit seasonal polyphenism, from two seasonal and one aseasonal location.

Ecological Research, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 1087-1094, November 2020., 2020 We tested a hypothesis regarding species commonness using a database compiled by a citizen science program. The data used were more than 34,000 butterfly records posted by monitoring participants from 2009 to 2017. We concluded that the data collected by the monitoring program appear to represent the status of the butterfly community in Tokyo, a ...
