The latitudinal diversity gradient in brush-footed butterflies (Nymphalidae): conserved ancestral tropical niche but different continental histories.

N. Chazot, F. Condamine, G. Dudas, C. Pena, P. Matos-Maravi, A. V. Freitas, K. R. Willmott, M. Elias, A. Warren, K. Aduse-Poku, D. J. Lohman, C. M. Penz, P. DeVries, U. Kodandaramaiah, Z. F. Fric, , N. Wahlberg

This study evaluates hypotheses for the latitudinal diversity gradient in Nymphalidae butterflies, finding that low extinction rates and historical dispersal patterns, rather than speciation rates, explain diversity patterns.

The Trials and Tribulations of Priors and Posteriors in Bayesian Timing of Divergence Analyses: the Age of Butterflies Revisited

N. Chazot, N. Wahlberg, A. V. Freitas, C. Mitter, C. Labandeira, J.-C. Sohn, R. K. Sahoo, N. Seraphim, R. de Jong, M. Heikkila

The paper evaluates the impact of priors on divergence timing estimates in butterflies using a large phylogeny and fossil calibrations, finding robust results for the origin of butterflies.
