Wing pattern diversity in Brassolini butterflies (Nymphalidae, Satyrinae) [PDF]

Biota Neotropica, 2013
This study describes and compares the diverse dorsal and ventral wing color patterns of Brassolini butterflies. Thirty-three species are illustrated, where pattern elements of the nymphalid ground plan are labeled in color. In general, a larger number of pattern elements can be identified on the ventral than on the dorsal surface of both wings, and the

Pioneering travels in Chile to study the life histories of Satyrinae butterflies (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae: Pronophilina)

REVISTA CHILENA DE ENTOMOLOGÍA
For the first time in the butterfly history of South America, nocturnal-feeding satyrid larvae were searched for, using new methods to find them in their early stages. In Central Chile we started from Guanaqueros (Coquimbo Region, 30°11’38.4’’ S) and proceeded to Las Trancas, Chillán (Ñuble Region, 36°53’31.6’’ S). We visited 17 biotopes between the

ZooKeys, 2015
Satyrinae is one of twelve subfamilies of the butterfly family Nymphalidae, which currently includes nine tribes. However, phylogenetic relationships among them remain largely unresolved, though different researches have been conducted based on both ...

Geographic Range Size Predicts Butterfly Species' Tolerance to Heavy Metals More Than Evolutionary History With Toxic Larval Diets. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Some organisms appear to thrive in contaminated environments, while others are more sensitive, though the causes of this variation are unclear. The toxin coevolution hypothesis posits that an evolutionary history with natural toxins preadapts species to deal with novel toxins, while the range‐size‐tolerance hypothesis posits that a larger ...

Satyrinae (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae, Satyrinae) of the Munchique National Natural Park. Species Diversity and Altitudinal Distribution

Revista Colombiana de Entomología, 2003
Summary During the months of June 1999 and May 2000 we carried out a preliminary inventory of the Satyrinae fauna that occurs at the Munchique National Park, paying especial attention to the mortification and recovery zones. Traps type Van-Someren Rydon were used, fatten with decompose fish or fermented banana.

Reproductive isolation and intraspecific structure in Alpine populations of Erebia euryale (Esper, 1805) (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Satyrinae)

Nota Lepidopterologica, 2014
The subspecies of Erebia euryale (Esper, 1805) have been split into three groups based on morphology, differing in male genital characters. Two of them, the euryale group and the adyte group, are known to be strongly, but not completely, reproductively ...

Which One Tastes Better? Testing Distinct Baits to Evaluate Fruit‐Feeding Butterfly Assemblages (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in a Subtropical Region

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 4, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Standardised sampling protocols are essential for improving biodiversity assessments, particularly for indicator groups such as fruit‐feeding butterflies. Although fermented banana is the most widely used bait in tropical regions, rotten fish is the best bait for catching fruit‐feeding butterflies in high‐altitude sites.
