Email: [email protected] Abstract Species are the fundamental units of life and their recognition is essential for science and society. DNA barcoding, the use of a single and often mitochondrial gene, has been increasingly employed as a universal approach for the identification of animal species. However, this approach faces several challenges. Here, we demonstrate with empirical data from a number of metazoan animal lineages that multiple nuclear-encoded markers, so called universal single-copy orthologs (USCOs) performs much better than the single barcode gene to discriminate closely related species. Overcoming the general shortcomings of mitochondrial DNA barcodes, USCOs also accurately assign samples to higher taxonomic levels.

The mature larva and pupa of each species are illustrated. We also provide a compilation of host records for members of the Brassolinae and briefly address the interaction between these butterflies and their larval food plants, Additional key words: Central America, host records, monocotyledonous plants, larval food plants. The nymphalid subfamily Brassolinae includes METHODS Neotropical species of large body size and crepuscular habits, both as caterpillars and adults (Harrison 1963, Between 25 May and .31 December, 1994 we Casagrande 1979, DeVries 1987, Slygley 1994). Larvae searched for ovipositing female butterflies along generally consume large quantities of plant material to Pipeline Road, Soberania National Park, Panama, mo­ reach maturity, a behavior that may be related as much tivated by a study on Caligo mating behavior (Srygley to the low nutrient content of their larval food plants & Penz 1999).

[email protected], [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT. External morphology of the adult of Dynamine postverta (Cramer) (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Biblidinae) and patterns of morphological similarity among species from eight tribes of Nymphalidae. The external structure of the integument of Dynamine postverta postverta (Cramer, 1779) is based on detailed morphological drawings and scanning electron microscopy. The data are compared with other species belonging to eight tribes of Nymphalidae, to assist future studies on the taxonomy and systematics of Neotropical Biblidinae. KEYWORDS. Abdomen; head; Insecta; morphology; Papilionoidea; thorax. Nymphalidae is a large cosmopolitan family of butter- served in dorsal view (Figs. 1–4). Two subspecies are recog- flies, with about 7,200 described species (Freitas & Brown nized according to Lamas (2004), Dynamine postverta Jr. 2004) and is perhaps the most well documented biologi- postverta (Cramer, 1779) distributed in South America and cally (Harvey 1991; Freitas & Brown Jr. 2004; Wahlberg et Dynamine postverta mexicana d’Almeida, 1952 with a dis- al. 2005). The systematic relationships are still somewhat tribution restricted to Central America. Several species sur- unclear with respect to its subfamilies, tribes and genera, and veys and other studies cite this species as Dynamine mylitta even after more than a century of studies on these groups, (DeVries 1987; Mielke 1994; Miller et al.1999; Freitas & these relationships still seem to confuse many who set out to Brown, Jr.

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.

Their wing dorsa generate superficially similar blue structural colour. Cover- and ground-scale layers in the wings of the species involved were investigated using optical and electronic microscopy to detect micro- and nanostructures. The layers of the scales in the two species are qualitatively dif­ ferent in terms of their morphologies and pigmentation. Wing reflectivity was measured using spect­ roscopic and goniometric techniques and simple models were proposed to analyse the measurements taken. Optical properties of the two butterflies are not as significantly different as their morphologies. We hypothesize that the different wing-beats of the species examined have an important role and explain how the two optically similar phenomena can work differently in nature. Introduction: The fascinating Neotropical butterfly genus Morpho Fabricius , 1807 (Insecta: Lepi­ doptera: Nymphalidae: Morphinae) has received particular attention from entomologists, who veiy recently studied their diversity and phylogeny using new methods (Penz & Devries , 2002). Moreover the physicists working on these organisms tend to focus their investigations in the genus on detecting micro- and nanostructures in the wing scales and on the mechanism by which these structures manipu­ late light.

  • Nymphalidae: Euptychiina)
    FREITAS: Immature stages of Taygetis acuta TROP. LEPID. RES., 27(1): 1-5, 2017 1 Immature stages of the Neotropical satyrine butterfly Taygetis acuta (Nymphalidae: Euptychiina) André Victor Lucci Freitas1,2 1 Departamento de Biologia Animal, Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Campinas, SP, Brazil 2 Museu de Zoologia, Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Campinas, SP, Brazil Abstract. The present paper describes the immature stages of the Neotropical satyrine butterflyTaygetis acuta Weymer, 1910. The solitary eggs are greenish white and round. The immature stages of T. acuta are morphologically similar to those of other species of the “Taygetis virgilia (Cramer, 1776) group”, with the last instar having elongate dorsal markings resembling the yellowish- bordered, elongate blotches caused by fungus on bamboo leaves, suggesting that camouflage could be involved. The pupa is short and smooth and entirely green, with short ocular caps. Larvae passed through four solitary instars and fed on bamboo (Poaceae) offered to them in the laboratory, with the natural hostplant still unknown. Resumo. O present trabalho descreve os estágios imaturos do satiríneo Neotropical Taygetis acuta Weymer, 1910. Os ovos são branco esverdeados, arredondados e isolados. Os imaturos de T. acuta são morfologicamente similares àqueles de outras espécies do “grupo Taygetis virgilia (Cramer, 1776)”, com o último instar apresentando marcas dorsais alongadas alusivas às manchas alongadas com bordas amarelas causadas por fungos nas folhas de bambus, sugerindo que camuflagem pode estar envolvida. A pupa é curta e lisa, inteira verde, com capas oculares curtas. As larvas passam por quatro instares solitários e se alimentam em bambus (Poaceae) oferecidos em laboratório; a planta hospedeira na natureza é desconhecida.
