Journal ArticleDOI

‘Species’ from two different butterfly genera combined into one: description of a new genus of Euptychiina (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) with unusually variable wing pattern

TL;DR: A new genus is proposed for the Neotropical satyrine butterfly species Euptychia punctata Weymer, 1911 and its junior subjective synonyms, appearing as the sister to all remaining genera in the Taygetis clade.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural history and systematic position of Rhetus belphegor (n. comb.) (Lepidoptera: Riodinidae), an endangered butterfly with narrow distribution in Southeast Brazil

TL;DR: The data supports that Nirodia is the only species in its clade associated with high mountains, in contrast to its lowland congeners, and Morphology of immature stages and molecular phylogenetic analysis showed that Nira is part of Rhetus, justifying the generic change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Species delimitation and evolutionary relationships among Phoebis New World sulphur butterflies (Lepidoptera, Pieridae, Coliadinae)

TL;DR: Two main clades of Phoebis diverged early in the evolutionary history of the genus, but most extant species‐level diversity arose after the Pliocene–Pleistocene boundary, and both sympatric and allopatric speciation seem to have shaped the current species richness.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA barcoding and morphology reveal two common species in one: Pimpla molesta stat. rev. separated from P. croceipes (Hymenoptera, Ichneumonidae)

TL;DR: The integrated molecular and morphological studies demonstrate that the relatively widespread and common neotropical parasitoid wasp Pimpla croceipes Cresson, 1874 actually consists of two distinct species.
