Mitochondrial phylogeography of grassland caterpillars (Lepidoptera: Lymantriinae: Gynaephora) endemic to the Qinghai–Tibetan plateau

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2024.
We conducted extensive sampling from 39 geographic populations covering almost the entire distribution of the eight Gynaephora species in the QTP to investigate phylogeographic patterns and speciation based on two mitochondrial genes. The results suggested that the number of the QTP Gynaephora species may be overestimated and further studies based on ...

Blister Beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera: Meloidae)

open access: yesEDIS, 2004
The family Meloidae, blister beetles, contains about 2500 species, divided among 80 genera and three subfamilies. Florida has 26 species, only a small fraction of the total number in the U.S., but nearly three times that in the West Indies (Selander and

Taxonomy of West-Palaearctic Lampromeloe (Coleoptera: Meloidae) with the description of a new species

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Taxonomy
Widely distributed phoretic blister beetles usually display unstructured geographic patterns of genetic diversity within species, resulting from recurrent long-dispersal events across their range. To investigate the extent of this pattern in the phoretic

Dissecting natural hybridisation in longhorned beetles through an integrative approach: Further proof of reticulate evolution in Dorcadionini (Cerambycidae, Lamiinae)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 53, Issue 5, Page 665-687, September 2024.
Abstract This work demonstrates for the first time using molecular markers alongside chromosomes and the intermediate phenotype that a specimen of Dorcadion is an accidental first‐generation hybrid. The analyses were based on two mitochondrial and five nuclear molecular markers.

Gut microbial changes in a specialist blister beetle larvae and their nutritional metabolic characteristics

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2024.
This study represents a first attempt to uncover how changes in gut microbiota play a role in the dietary preferences and feeding habits of Hycleus cichorii larvae. The excessive amount of polysaccharides in the artificial diet may be detrimental to the growth and development of first instar larvae.

Insects Taken at Japanese Beetle Traps Baited with Anethole-Eugenol in Southern Michigan in 1968 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A survey of the populations of Jap.anese beetles, Popillia japonica Newman, is made each year in southern Michigan to determine the abundance and distribution of this pest insect. Since little information is available about the insects that are attracted
