The complete mitochondrial genome of Melanargia asiatica (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae)
Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014We sequenced the complete mitochondrial genome of Melanargia asiatica (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae). The entire closed circular molecule is 15,142 bp long, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes and a AT-rich region. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) initiate with the typical start codons ATN, with the exception of cox1 ...

Nomenclatural status of Euptychia mollina Hübner, 1818 (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae)
Zootaxa, 2015The purpose of this note is to clarify the nomenclatural status of Euptychia mollina Hübner, 1818, the type species of Euptychia Hübner, 1818, as there seems to be confusion regarding its year of publication. Due to an unfortunate oversight, Lamas (2004) listed the name as Euptychia mollina (Hübner, [1813]), and this mistake has been repeated in the ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Triphysa phryne (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae)
Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) sequence of Triphysa phryne (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) was determined in this study. The mitogenome is 15,143 bp in length, containing 37 typical animal mitochondrial genes: 13 putative protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs and a non-coding AT-rich region.

A Population Ecological Study of Chazara Briseis (Lepidoptera, Satyrinae)
1996The distribution of Chazara briseis (Linnaeus, 1764) (Nymphalidae, Satyrinae) ranges from North Africa across southern and central Europe (south of 52° 30’ N. Lat.) eastwards to the Pamirs, Tian Shan and Altai mountains in Central Asia (Higgins & Riley 1980, Lukhtanov & Lukhtanov 1994), and is regarded by Varga (1977) as a Holomediterranean ...

Tracing the radiation of Maniola (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) butterflies
2014Maniola butterflies show a peculiar distribution: Maniola jurtina, the most widely distributed species of this genus, can be found all over Europe, whereas the other six described species are restricted to the Mediterranean area - among them three species are island endemics on Sardinia, Cyprus and Chios, respectively.
