Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2024.The Greater Cape Floristic Region at the southern tip of Africa is a global megadiversity hotspot. The region's biodiversity has been driven by a long history of topographic, climatic, and sea level change coupled with geological uplift, and without being exposed to any major climate events such as glaciations since the breakup of Gondwana.

Ecological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 598-603, August 2024.Coenonympha species replace each other along the elevational gradient despite their similar phenotypes, phenology and host plants. Estimated egg heat tolerance ranges strongly differed between lowland and alpine Coenonympha species but not between populations of the same species from different elevations. Species‐specific egg heat tolerance range could

Variation in the genitalia of the butterfly Maniola jurtina (Lepidoptera: Satyrinae) [PDF]
Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1993 The genilalia of animals, particularly insects, are extremely useful taxonomic characters, for they are highly conserved within species yet generally diverge rapidly during specialion: often the only reliable means of separating sibling species is via the morphology of the genilalia.
