Simple Summary: In this study, the mitogenomes of Hestina persimilis and Hestinalis nama were obtained via sanger sequencing. Compared with other mitogenomes of Apaturinae butterflies, conclusions can be made that the mitogenomes of Hestina persimilis and Hestinalis nama are highly conservative. The phylogenetic trees build upon mitogenomic data showing that the relationships among Nymphalidae are similar to previous studies. Hestinalis nama is apart from Hestina, and closely related to Apatura, forming a monophyletic clade. Citation: Wu, Y.; Fang, H.; Wen, J.; Wang, J.; Cao, T.; He, B. Abstract: In this study, the complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of Hestina persimilis Mitochondrial Genomes of Hestina and Hestinalis nama (Nymphalidae: Apaturinae) were acquired. The mitogenomes of H. persimilis persimilis and Hestinalis nama and H. nama are 15,252 bp and 15,208 bp in length, respectively. These two mitogenomes have the (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae): typical composition, including 37 genes and a control region.

The habitats are the natural forest on mountain, the secondary forest, the forest edge, shrub and grass from 1,400 to 1,700 m a.s.l. The study was carried out uncontinuously from May to September in 2008, 2010 and 2011. Total 132 species of 5 butterfly families were recorded during studied period. Two species listed in the Red Data Book of Vietnam and CITES are Troides aeacus and Teinopalpus imperialis. There are 33 species with individuals 1-2 (25% of all species), 44 species with individuals 3-5 (33% of all species), 14 species with individuals 6-10 (11% of all species), and 41 species with individuals more than 10 (31% of all species). Butterfly species of Dong Van karst plateau consists of 12.6% of all butterfly species of Vietnam, but the family Papilionidae of Dong Van karst plateau consists of 40% of all species of the family of Vietnam. The family Papilionidae is very important for conservation of insects. Some species distributed in Vietnam merely found in the studied area are Byasa hedistus, Papilio elwesi, Sasakia funeblis, S.

  • Observations of Nectaring by Butterflies at KFBG
    Observations of Nectaring by Butterflies at Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden August 2015 Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden Publication Series No. 14 Observation of Nectaring by Butterflies at KFBG, Hong Kong SAR China ABSTRACT Between May and September 2003 a project investigating the nectaring habits of butterflies at the Kadoorie Farm & Botanic Garden, Butterfly Garden was undertaken. The present document is a revision of the earlier internal report and is intended as a reference for butterfly garden management in Hong Kong and the region. Ten plant species were observed being utilized as nectar sources by 31 butterfly species using a point count method. Two plant species present in the garden, Salvia farinacea and Melampodium sp., were not visited as significant nectar sources, nor were they used by butterflies as larval hostplants. It was recommended that these plants be replaced with more attractive nectar source plants. Two butterfly species of conservation concern, Troides helenus and Troides aeacus, used nectar plants, with Agapanthus africanus being strongly preferred by T. helenus. Lantana camara, Agapanthus africanus and Duranta erecta were the most utilized nectar source plants, accounting for 71% of all nectaring observations.

  • Catalogue of Type Specimens 4. Linnaean Specimens

Linnaean specimens 1 UPPSALA UNIVERSITY, MUSEUM OF EVOLUTION, ZOOLOGY SECTION (UUZM) Catalogue of type specimens. 4. Linnaean specimens The UUZM catalogue of type specimens is issued in four parts: 1. C.P.Thunberg (1743-1828), Insecta 2. General zoology 3. Entomology 4. Linnaean specimens (this part) Unlike the other parts of the type catalogue this list of the Linnaean specimens is heterogenous in not being confined to a physical unit of material and in not displaying altogether specimens qualifying as types. Two kinds of links connect the specimens in the list: one is a documented curatorial tradition referring listed material to collections handled and described by Carl von Linné, the other is associated with the published references by Linné to literary or material sources for which specimens are available in the Uppsala University Zoological Museum. The establishment of material being 'Linnaean' or not (for the ultimate purpose of a typification) involves a study of the history of the collections and a scrutiny of individual specimens. An important obstacle to an unequivocal interpretation is, in many cases, the fact that Linné did not label any of the specimens included in the present 'Linnaean collection' in Uppsala (at least there are no surviving labels or inscriptions with his handwriting or referable to his own marking of specimens; a single exception will be pointed out below in the historical survey). A critical examination must thus be based on the writings of Linné, a consideration of the relation between between these writings and the material at hand, and finally a technical and archival scrutiny of the curatorial arrangements that have been made since Linné's time.

Lepidoptera, butterflies, red listed species, military training area, grassland, conservation Abstract. Military training areas are increasingly recognized as areas of high biodiversity and habitats for many wild organisms, in- cluding threatened or endangered species. However, the information on the ecological value of military training areas is limited because it is difficult access these sites. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of military activity on butterfly communities. The survey was carried out in a military training area (MTA) at Inje-gun near the demilitarized zone (DMZ), Inje forest (IJF) a secondary forest and Gwangneung forest (GWF) an old growth forest, from April to October 2008 to 2011. IJF and GWF were selected in order to determine the characteristics of a butterfly community differed in a MTA.

  • Spatial Distribution of Butterflies in Accordance with Climate Change In
    sustainability Article Spatial Distribution of Butterflies in Accordance with Climate Change in the Korean Peninsula Sangdon Lee * , Hyeyoung Jeon and Minkyung Kim Department of Environmental Sciences & Engineering, College of Engineering, Ewha Womans University, Seoul 03760, Korea; [email protected] (H.J.); [email protected] (M.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 19 February 2020; Accepted: 3 March 2020; Published: 5 March 2020 Abstract: The effects of climate change are becoming apparent in the biosphere. In the 20th century, South Korea experienced a 1.5 ◦C temperature increase due to rapid industrialization and urbanization. If the changes continue, it is predicted that approximately 15–37% of animal and plant species will be endangered after 2050. Because butterflies act as a good indicator for changes in the temperature, the distribution of butterflies can be used to determine their adaptability to climate patterns. Local meteorological data for the period 1938–2011 were used from the National Forest Research Institute of Korea. Local temperature data were additionally considered among the basic information, and the distribution patterns of butterflies were analyzed for both the southern and northern regions. Southern butterflies (with northern limit) tend to increase in number with significant correlation between the temperature and number of habitats (p < 0.000), while northern butterflies (with southern limit) show no statistical significance between the temperature and number of habitats, indicating their sensitivity to temperature change. This finding is in accordance with the conclusion that southern butterflies are more susceptible to climate change when adapting to local environments and expanding their original temperature range for survival, which leads to an increase in the numbers of their habitats.

Phylogenetic trees were constructed based on the sequences determined from the 29 species and sequences of other 36 species deposited in GenBank using the neighbor-joining (NJ), maximum likelihood (ML) and Bayesian methods with Libythea celtis (Libytheinae) as the outgroup. Our phylogenetic trees indicated four major clades. Clade A includes three subfamilies: Apaturinae, Nymphalinae, and Limenitidinae, excluding the tribe Limenitidini; Clade B includes the subfam- ilies Heliconiinae and the tribe Limenitidini; Clade C includes Satyrinae, Calinaginae, Charaxinae and Morphinae; and Clade D includes subfamily Danainae. Our study suggested that the tribes Pseudergolini, Biblidini, Limenitidini and Cyrestidini should be considered as subfamilies and confirmed the interspecific relationships within the subfamily Pseudergolinae, namely Amnosia +(Pseudergolis +(Stibo- chiona + Dichorragia)).
