Is there a massive glacial–Holocene flora continuity in Central Europe?
ABSTRACT The prevailing paradigm about the Quaternary ecological and evolutionary history of Central European ecosystems is that they were repeatedly impoverished by regional extinctions of most species during the glacial periods, followed by massive recolonizations from southern and eastern refugia during interglacial periods.

A kis apollólepke (Parnassius mnemosyne (LINNAEUS, 1758)) nektárnövényfajok közti választása
A lepkék jó modelljei lehetnek a táplálékforrás-választás tanulmányozásának, mert a kifejlett egyedek válogatnak a nektárforrás-kínálatból és képesek alkalmazkodni időben változó táplálékforrásaikhoz. Célunk a kis apollólepke (Parnassius mnemosyne (LINNAEUS, 1758)) nektárnövényfajválasztását befolyásoló virágtulajdonságok megismerése volt.

Abstract In mountain ecosystems, it is crucial to identify conservation strategies to avoid local extinctions mainly due to agropastoral abandonment. For this purpose, identifying appropriate system indicators is required, for example, butterflies, which respond precisely and quickly to environmental changes.

The decline of the charismatic Parnassius mnemosyne (L.) (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) in a Central Italy national park: a call for urgent actions [PDF]
Here we report the strong decline of a population of the endangered species Parnassius mnemosyne (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Papilionidae) in the National Park of Foreste Casentinesi, Monte Falterona and Campigna (Italy).

We developed a habitat management strategy for the conservation of the Italian endemic butterfly Zerynthia cassandra, which consisted of vegetation cuts to increase irradiation over host plant patches. A 3‐year field‐survey demonstrated that this procedure significantly increased the number of eggs laid in managed patches as well as larval presence. We

Pleistocene evolutionary history of the Clouded Apollo (Parnassius mnemosyne): genetic signatures of climate cycles and a 'time-dependent' mitochondrial substitution rate [PDF]
Genetic data are currently providing a large amount of new information on past distribution of species and are contributing to a new vision of Pleistocene ice ages.

A nappali lepkefauna vizsgálata Székesfehérváron (Lepidoptera: Rhopalocera) [PDF]
The butterfly fauna of Székesfehérvár and the neighbouring plains, Mezőföld has not been wellknown until now, because only few lepidopterologists and collectors worked in the area and the number of publications was low.
