Different host plant utilization ability of two closely related Melitaea species (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2015
In natural systems plant-insect interactions are influenced by several factors. For instance plants could be characterised by the presence of defensive chemicals and herbivores are forced to evolve resistance against them.

The identity of the type material of the subspecies of Melitaea phoebe ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) described by Emilio Turati (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

open access: yesSHILAP, 2022
Two taxa described by Turati in 1920 as subspecies of Melitaea phoebe ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775), are examined from high resolution photographs. M. phoebe phoebina Turati, 1920 is identified from morphological features as M. ornata Christoph, 1893,

Some observations on hybridisation between closely related species of Rhopalocera (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae, Nymphalidae)

open access: yesSHILAP, 2022
Details are provided of hybridisation between Polyommatus icarus (Rottemburg, 1775) from East Sussex (UK) and P. celina (Austaut, 1879) from Lanzarote (Canary Islands, Spain) under laboratory conditions. Comments are also made on natural hybrids between

South European mountain butterflies at a high risk from land abandonment and amplified effects of climate change

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 838-852, November 2023., 2023
Picos de Europa mountain range, a Southwestern Europe butterfly hotspot, is under a great conservation threat, with a decline of 45% of total butterfly abundance in the last 9 years. Species trends were produced for 55 species: 71% showed an uncertain trend, while 26% of species were declining.

Designation of lectotypes for some Spanish and other western European Melitaea taxa, some with mixed syntypic series of M. phoebe ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775) and M. ornata Christoph, 1893 (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

open access: yesSHILAP, 2020
Morphological characters of value in distinguishing Melitaea phoebe from M. ornata are exemplified from photographs of specimens from sympatric and partially synchronic populations in North Macedonia and Italy.

Czech Republic butterfly barcoding reveals that distribution of genetic lineages depends on species traits

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 51, Issue 8, Page 1575-1586, August 2024.
Abstract Aim The distribution of within‐species lineages has been affected by Quaternary climate changes, and population differentiation has been influenced by species life history traits. We investigated whether the distribution of individual mitochondrial genetic lineages reflects the constituent species' traits.
