Mitochondrial phylogenomics of the Australian scribbly gum moth Ogmograptis (Lepidoptera: Bucculatricidae) and an examination of deep‐level relationships within Lepidoptera

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 449-463, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Larval feeding by the moth genus Ogmograptis (Bucculatricidae: Lepidoptera) creates one of the most iconic features of the Australian bush—the ‘scribbles’ found on smooth‐barked Eucalyptus. The taxonomic history of Ogmograptis has been challenging, with members of the genus being initially described in four different genera representing three ...

The unresolved phylogenomic tree of butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera): Assessing the potential causes and consequences

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 531-550, October 2022., 2022
Phylogenomics has helped us resolve much of the Lepidoptera tree of life, but the relationships among the superfamilies within Ditrysia, containing 98% of the order's species richness, remain unresolved. One of the unresolved questions is the phylogenetic position of the large microlepidopteran superfamily Gelechioidea, whose placement depends on the ...

Adding leaves to the Lepidoptera tree: capturing hundreds of nuclear genes from old museum specimens

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 46, Issue 3, Page 649-671, July 2021., 2021
A target enrichment kit and workflow to sequence and process hundreds to thousands of loci for recent and old Lepidoptera specimens is presented. Taxa are added to the Lepidoptera phylogeny based on museum specimens collected between 1892 and 2017. Lepidoptera systematic relationships are discussed.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Illiberis ulmivora (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae) and phylogenetic analysis

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
Here we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Illiberis ulmivora (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae). This mitogenome was 15,334 bp long and encoded 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal RNA ...

Larval morphology of Heterogynis (Lepidoptera: Heterogynidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2004
The external morphology and chaetotaxy of the larvae of Heterogynidae (Lepidoptera) are described in order to provide information of potential phylogenetic value for the reconstruction of the systematic relationships within the Zygaenoidea.

Using molecular and crowd‐sourcing methods to assess breeding ground diet of a migratory brood parasite of conservation concern

open access: yesJournal of Avian Biology, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2020., 2020
Breeding ground food availability is critical to the survival and productivity of adult birds. The common cuckoo Cuculus canorus is a brood‐parasitic Afro‐Palearctic migrant bird exhibiting long‐term (breeding) population declines in many European countries.
