Changes in Vegetation Cover and Their Effects on the Diversity of Fruit‐Feeding Butterflies

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 7, July 2025.
We used fruit‐feeding butterfly diversity as a bioindicator of deforestation for implementing pastures in Brazilian tropical dry forests. A total of 1091 individuals belonging to 35 species of the Nymphalidae family were sampled. Changes in land cover and tree density were important factors in explaining butterfly diversity.

Conservation status of Erebia palarica Chapman, 1905 (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae): Local insight and whole distribution perspective

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 370-385, May 2025.
Mark‐release‐recapture data of E. palarica reveals low dispersal rates (<500 m) and small census population sizes (Nc = 303 and 565) in two localities from Serra do Courel (NW Spain). Microsatellite genotypes of four generations (1999–2021) from the population of Alto do Couto, in Serra do Courel, reveal a small effective population size (Ne < 100). E.
