Host Plant Suitability and a Test of the Feeding Specialization Hypothesis Using \u3ci\u3ePapilio Cresphontes\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The concept that host plant favorites would be used for more rapid and/or efficient growth of the locally adapted individuals was tested in a preliminary way using the giant swallowtail butterfly, Papilio cresphontes.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Parnassius mercurius Grum-Grshimailo (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae: Parnassiinae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The mitogenome of Parnassius mercurius Grum-Grshimailo is determined to be 15,372 bp in length, including 37 typical insect mitochondrial genes and an AT-rich region. All PCGs start with ATN, except for COI with CGA; 12 of 13 PCGs harbour the common stop

Complete Mitochondrial Genome of Papilio protenor (Lepidoptera, Papilionidae) and Implications for Papilionidae Taxonomy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Insect Science, 2017
The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Papilio protenor (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) was sequenced and annotated in this study. The mitogenome comprised a typical circular, double-stranded DNA molecule of 15,268 bp in length including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and an A+T-rich region.

Co-occurrence of host plants associated with plant quality determines performance patterns of the specialist butterfly, Battus polydamas archidamas (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae: Troidini)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2016
In herbivorous insects, differences in the degree of specialization to host plants emerge when the distribution of an herbivore differs from that of its host plants, which results in a mosaic of populations differing in performance on the different host ...
