Lepidoptera of South Ossetia (Northern Transcaucasia). Part V. Superfamily Papilionoidea Latreille, 1809

open access: yesActa Biologica Sibirica
Seventy seven Papilionoidea species have been indicated for South Ossetia (72 – for the first time for thus territory). For three species listed in the Red Book of South Ossetia (P. apollo, I. podalirius and P. machaon) new localities are given.

Comparative Analysis of Lepidopteran Community Structure Using DNA Metabarcoding: Warm‐Temperate Forest Versus Grass‐Shrub Ecotones in Pangquangou National Nature Reserve

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study confirms that the method based on DNA metabarcoding qualifies as a cost‐efficient alternative to traditional approaches, as well as a better understanding for future assessment of insect diversity. ABSTRACT Lepidoptera is a widely geographically distributed insect order that plays crucial ecological roles in forest and grass‐shrub ecosystems

Butterfly diversity in natural and modified habitat at Bahorok District, Langkat Regency, North Sumatra

open access: yesJurnal Entomologi Indonesia
Changes in the function of natural areas, rice fields, and plantations can reduce the number and diversity of butterflies, with environmental factors playing a significant role in shaping butterfly richness and diversity.

Tracing the origins and evolution of nymphalid butterflies (Lepidoptera) in the Atlantic Forest

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Understanding the relative roles of diversification and dispersal is key to explaining large‐scale biogeographical patterns. Although both processes are known to shape biodiversity, their relative contributions remain understudied for many organisms. Here, we examine how these processes have jointly contributed to the exceptional diversity and endemism

Host plant richness and abundance drive populations of a super‐generalist xylem‐feeding insect

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 570-579, June 2026.
Philaenus spumarius abundance was assessed across 93 sites and four habitat types (olive groves, vineyards, meadows, and field margins) within eight heterogeneous agricultural landscapes over the year. In spring, nymph abundance was positively associated with herbaceous plant species richness and vegetation cover, highlighting that even super ...

Within and between species scaling in the weight, water, carbon and nitrogen contents of eggs and neonate larvae of twelve satyrine butterflies (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2006
The fresh weight, dry weight, and C and N content of the eggs, egg shells and neonate larvae of several satyrines were measured. This was done in order to assess the specificity of the composition of the egg and larvae, the phylogenetic or ecological ...

Environmental Filtering Dominates Over Dispersal Limitation in Structuring Highly Mobile Tropical Communities

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To disentangle the relative roles of environmental filtering (niche processes) and dispersal limitation (neutral processes) in structuring communities of a highly mobile tropical taxon, and to assess the implications for biodiversity patterns at broad spatial scales. Location Brazilian Amazon. Time Period 2011–2019.

Molecular systematics of the subfamily Limenitidinae (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
We studied the systematics of the subfamily Limenitidinae (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) using molecular methods to reconstruct a robust phylogenetic hypothesis. The molecular data matrix comprised 205 Limenitidinae species, four outgroups, and 11,327 aligned nucleotide sites using up to 18 genes per species of which seven genes (CycY,
