Foodplant Processing Adaptations in Four \u3ci\u3eHyalophora\u3c/i\u3e Species (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae): Regional and Taxonomic Specialization [PDF]
To determine whether local populations of four Hyalophora species (Lepidoptera: Satumiidae) had improved survival or were physiologically adapted for rapid and/or efficient growth on their local hosts, a series of larval feeding studies were conducted ...

Seeing Through the Mimicry of <i>Papilio bootes</i> by Combining Computer-Aided and Human Eyesight Morphological Comparisons. [PDF]
The study investigates Batesian mimicry between Papilio bootes and Byasa species in West China, revealing that different subspecies of P. bootes mimic Byasa species with varying hindwing spot patterns. Subspecies in the western range mimic four‐spotted Byasa species, while northeastern subspecies mimic spotless ones, with B.

Gene Flow Between Great Lakes Region Populations of the Canadian Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly, \u3ci\u3ePapilio Canadensis\u3c/i\u3e, Near the Hybrid Zone With \u3ci\u3eP. Glaucus\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) [PDF]
Papilio canadensis were sampled from three locations on either side of Lake Michigan to study gene flow near and through a butterfly hybrid zone. Allele frequencies at four polymorphic enzyme loci, as indicated by allozyme electrophoresis, were similar ...
