Former studies have shown that there is an interspecific allometric relationship between egg size and adult body size in butterflies and skippers. This is here re-assessed at the family and subfamily levels in order to determine to what extent the overall trend is uniform through different taxonomic lineages. The results suggest that different subtaxa are characterised by different allometric slopes. Al- though statistical analysis across species means is known to be potentially misleading to assess evolu- tionary relations, it is shown that the comparison of apparent patterns (based on species means) with inferred evolutionary trends (based on independent contrasts) may help to understand the evolution of egg size in butterflies. Further, intuitive reconsideration of statistically non-significant results may prove informative. As an example, argumentation in favour of a positive association between large egg size and the use of monocotyledon plants as larval food is presented. Taxa where atypical allometric trends are found include the Riodininae and Theclini (Lycaenidae), the Graphiini (Papilionidae), and the Heliconiinae (Nymphalidae).

The Chinese softshell turtle exhibits ZZ/ZW sex determination. To identify the sex of embryos, juvenile and adult individuals, we designed two pairs of polymerase chain reaction primers, SB1-196, which amplifies a fragment of 196 bp in the female and the other, CK1-482, which amplifies the 482-bp fragment in both the sexes. It is validated in 24 adult turtles of known sex, sampled from three different locations. This one-step sexing technique is rapid and easy to perform and is reported for the first time. Keywords. polymerase chain reaction; sex identification; sex chromosome; molecular sexing; reptile; Chinese softshell turtle.

Spiroxys amydae (80%), Cephalogonimiis vesicaudus (80%), Vasotrema robiistum (76%), and Proteocephalus sp. (63%) were the most prevalent helminths. Significant lesions were associated with the at- tachment sites of Spiroxys amydae in the stomach wall. Contracaecum multipapillatum and Polymorphus brevis are reported for the first time in reptiles. The pentastomid Alofia sp. is reported for the first time in North America and in turtles. KEY WORDS: Softshell turtle, Apalone ferox, helminths, pentastomes, Florida. The Florida softshell turtle (Apalone ferox) softshell turtles from southeastern Florida are ranges from southern South Carolina, through discussed. southern Georgia to Mobile Bay, Alabama, and all of Florida except the Keys (Conant and Col- Methods lins, 1991).
