The Population Structure of Erebia Epipsodea (Lepidoptera: Satyrinae)

Ecology, 1970
The satyrine butterfly Erebia epipsodea shows a population structure unlike that of any other butterfly studied in detail. Rather than being divided into numerous small populations which only rarely exchange individuals, E. epipsodea occurs in vast, effectively panmictic populations which may cover hundreds of square kilometers.

Taxonomic notes on the jalaurida-subgroup of the genus Lethe (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Satyrinae)

Zootaxa, 2020
In this paper, Lethe (Zophoessa) jalaurida (de Nicéville, 1881) and its relatives, viz. the jalaurida-subgroup (sura-group), are studied. A new species, L. giancbi Lang & Das sp. nov. which was identified as L. elwesi (Moore, 1892) by Lang & Bozano (2015) and Lang (2017), is described from SE Tibet, China.

TWO TYPES OF VENATIONAL ABERRATION IN THE SATYRINAE

The Canadian Entomologist, 1937
About a year ago Mr. F. M. Brown called the writer's attention to the aberrant venation of one secondary of a specimen of Erebia magdalena Strecker. The aberration, of the type shown in Figure I, consists in the presence of an extra cross-vein connecting veins Rs and M1 a few millimeters beyond the end of the cell.

Phylogeny of Amathusiini butterflies based on adult morphology (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Satyrinae)

Zootaxa, 2021
Based on comparative morphology of adults, a phylogeny is proposed for the butterfly tribe Amathusiini (Nymphalidae, Satyrinae). The dataset includes 92 characters scored for 45 species in 12 genera, representing the most comprehensive phylogenetic analysis for this group.

Butterflies in a Disappearing Ecosystem: Alpine Satyrinae

2010
Australia’s alpine and subalpine zones are small, confined to the southeast of the continent and, by European or other standards, not particularly high: the highest peak (Mt Kosciuszko) reaches only 2,228 m high, and much of the so-called ‘snow country’ lies well below this.
