A Novel Sampling Protocol for Fruit‐Feeding Butterflies in Grasslands and Open Habitats

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study proposed a novel sampling protocol for fruit‐feeding butterflies in grasslands and open areas in the subtropical region. The new method involves the use of Van Someren‐Rydon bait traps placed on specific supports closer to the ground, aiming to capture the true diversity of butterflies in these habitats.

Forest Type as a Key Driver of Butterfly Species Diversity

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Forest types and complex vegetation structures are key factors in promoting butterfly diversity. While considerable studies represent the checklists of butterfly species across various forest types in Bangladesh, the influence of different forest types on butterfly species diversity remains unexplored. To explore this, we conducted the study from April
