Isabel Cristina Cadavid Sánchez*, Doris Amanda Rosero García*, Sandra Inés Uribe Soto* Resumen Se evaluaron dos métodos para la extracción de ADN en plantas del género Solanum, con el fin de obtener ADN disponible y de buena calidad para la obtención de secuencias. El producto comercial DNeasy® Plant Mini Kit se comparó con un método que incluye el uso de una solución tampón de lisis. Para este último método también se evaluó si el rendimiento mejoraba cuando las muestras se maceraron previamente con nitrógeno líquido. Los resultados en términos de calidad (A260/A280) no mostraron diferencias significativas entre los métodos de extracción (índice < 1,5). Sin embargo, se encon- traron diferencias en la concentración de ADN obtenida (prueba de Dunnet, p<0,05) y en los porcentajes de amplificación mediante PCR (X2, p<0,05).

For he [= Apollo], infuriated at the king [= Agamemnon], [10] caused an evil disease to arise throughout the mass of warriors, and the people were getting destroyed, because the son of Atreus had dishonored Khrysēs his priest. Now Khrysēs had come to the ships of the Achaeans to free his daughter, and had brought with him a great ransom [apoina]: moreover he bore in his hand the scepter of Apollo wreathed with a suppliant’s wreath [15] and he besought the Achaeans, but most of all the two sons of Atreus, who were their chiefs.

  • Hybridization in the Species of Enantia Jethys Complex (Lepidoptera, Pieridae)
    Poster ID: 305 Hybridization in the species of Enantia jethys complex (Lepidoptera, Pieridae) Jovana M Jasso-Martínez, Salima C Machkour-M´Rabet, Roger Vila, Rosario Rodríguez-Arnaiz, América N Castaneda-Sortibrán Abstract With at least 10% of the worldwide species involved, hybridization is common in animal species. Hybridization events have been largely demonstrated in butterfly natural populations. Studies have shown that interspecific gene flow remains important even after speciation, and therefore hybridization and introgression are an important factor for the evolution of species as a source of genetic variability. Enantia is a butterfly genus of the family Pieridae, and currently contains nine Neotropical species. The Enantia jethys complex is a Mesoamerican group composed by three species (E. jethys, E. mazai, E. albania), all of which are sympatric in Mexico. Results: We carried out separate and concatenated phylogenetic analyses among Mexican specimens of the above taxa using DNA sequences of three gene markers (COI, RpS5, Wg) and ISSRs. The separate analyses recovered distinct topologies and all markers had high levels of interspecific gene flow. We found evidence of directional hybridization. Hybridization always involves E. albania with the other two species, but it never occurs between E. jethys and E. mazai. We also observed that the hybrids can affect the levels of genetic diversity in these species. This study remarks the importance of assessing the presence of hybridization in evolutionary studies of closely related species. Introduction Natural hybridization can be defined as the production of viable hybrids from interspecific mating, and introgression as the integration of foreign genetic material from one species into another through backcrossing (Baack and Rieseberg 2007).

RESUMEN La riqueza biológica de Mesoamérica es enorme. Dentro de esta gran área geográfi ca se encuentran algunos de los ecosistemas más diversos del planeta (selvas tropicales), así como varios de los principales centros de endemismo en el mundo (bosques nublados). Países como Guatemala, en esta gran área biogeográfi ca, tiene grandes zonas de bosque húmedo tropical y bosque mesófi lo, por esta razón es muy importante para analizar la diversidad en la región. Lamentablemente, la fauna de mariposas de Guatemala es poco conocida y por lo tanto, es necesario llevar a cabo un estudio y análisis de la composición y la diversidad de las mariposas (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) en Guatemala.

One troop is entirely wild-feeding whilst the other supplements its diet with crop-raiding, behaviour previously suggested to provide energetic benefits. Observations of activity budgets and feeding behaviour were combined with nutritional analyses of food samples to estimate energetic intake and expenditure amongst adult female baboons.

  • Butterflies (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) in a Coastal Plain Area in the State of Paraná, Brazil
    62 TROP. LEPID. RES., 26(2): 62-67, 2016 LEVISKI ET AL.: Butterflies in Paraná Butterflies (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) in a coastal plain area in the state of Paraná, Brazil Gabriela Lourenço Leviski¹*, Luziany Queiroz-Santos¹, Ricardo Russo Siewert¹, Lucy Mila Garcia Salik¹, Mirna Martins Casagrande¹ and Olaf Hermann Hendrik Mielke¹ ¹ Laboratório de Estudos de Lepidoptera Neotropical, Departamento de Zoologia, Universidade Federal do Paraná, Caixa Postal 19.020, 81.531-980, Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected]٭ Abstract: The coastal plain environments of southern Brazil are neglected and poorly represented in Conservation Units. In view of the importance of sampling these areas, the present study conducted the first butterfly inventory of a coastal area in the state of Paraná. Samples were taken in the Floresta Estadual do Palmito, from February 2014 through January 2015, using insect nets and traps for fruit-feeding butterfly species. A total of 200 species were recorded, in the families Hesperiidae (77), Nymphalidae (73), Riodinidae (20), Lycaenidae (19), Pieridae (7) and Papilionidae (4). Particularly notable records included the rare and vulnerable Pseudotinea hemis (Schaus, 1927), representing the lowest elevation record for this species, and Temenis huebneri korallion Fruhstorfer, 1912, a new record for Paraná. These results reinforce the need to direct sampling efforts to poorly inventoried areas, to increase knowledge of the distribution and occurrence patterns of butterflies in Brazil. Key words: Atlantic Forest, Biodiversity, conservation, inventory, species richness. INTRODUCTION the importance of inventories to knowledge of the fauna and its conservation, the present study inventoried the species of Faunal inventories are important for providing knowledge butterflies of the Floresta Estadual do Palmito.

HILL 3060 Valley Life Sciences Building, Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720 email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Forbestra is the only mechanitine genus lacking a thorough life history description and little is known of its biology. Accord- ingly I describe the immature stages including first instar chaetotaxy, and provide observations on the biology of Forbestra olivencia from Garza Cocha in eastern Ecuador. Morphological characters from the early stages of Forbestra olivencia are identified that are unique to Forbestra and support the close relationship of Forbestra and Mechanitis. Forbestra olivencia was a moderately common butterfly at Garza Cocha during the sample period, far outnumbering other sympatric Forbestra. Ecological observations demonstrate similarities between F. olivencia and Mechanitis, but suggest F. olivencia is more restricted to shaded microhabitats. Additional key words: Mechanitini, Mechanitis, chaetotaxy INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS Ithomiine butterflies have played an important role in Observations were made intermittently between the development of mimicry theory, having been the 2000-2005 at Garza Cocha (S 00°29.87', W 76°22.45'), original models of imitation described by Bates (1862). Provincia Sucumbios, Ecuador. Early stages were In that paper Henry Bates described Mechanitis reared in plastic cups and plastic bags under ambient olivencia based on wing color pattern differences being conditions (22-30° C, 70-100% relative humidity) in a consistently different from other sympatric Mechanitis wood building with screen windows.

Data are from 12 years field experience in the country and from Museums specimens. Some new species records are added to Ecuadorian fauna and it is presumed that at least a 10% more of new records will be obtained in the near future. Ecuadorian Pieridae, although in the past many taxa were described from this country, are far from being thoroughly known. One of the most prolific author was Hewitson (1852-1877; 1869-1870; 1870; 1877) who described many species from the collections made by Buckley and Simons . Some of the "Ecuador” citations by Hewitson are pointed out more precisely by the same author (Hewit ­ son , 1870) in his index to the list of species collected by Buckley in remote areas uneasily reached even to-day (V ane -Wright, 1991). An important contribution on Lepidoptera of Ecuador is given by Dognin (1887-1896) who described and listed many new species collected by Gaujon in the Loja area, where typical amazonian and páramo species are included.
