The phylogenetic placement of an enigmatic moth Egybolis vaillantina based on museomics

R. Zahiri, J. D. Holloway, H. R. Ghanavi, L. Aarvik, N. Wahlberg

This study uses multi-locus sequencing to place the moth Egybolis vaillantina within a clade of Erebidae moths, suggesting its reclassification into the subfamily Erebinae.

Evolutionary history of Euteliidae (Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea)

R. Zahiri, J. D. Holloway, J. Rota, C. Schmidt, M. J. Pellinen, I. J. Kitching, S. E. Miller, N. Wahlberg

This study reconstructs the evolutionary history of Euteliidae moths, revealing their adaptation to resinous and latex-producing plants and identifying taxonomic revisions and divergence times.

The (non) accuracy of mitochondrial genomes for family level phylogenetics: the case of erebid moths (Lepidoptera; Erebidae)

H. R. Ghanavi, V. Twort, T. J. Hartman, R. Zahiri, N. Wahlberg

This study evaluates the accuracy of mitochondrial genomes in resolving phylogenetic relationships within Erebidae moths, finding they are inadequate for subfamily-level relationships but show potential for lower-level relationships with good taxon sampling.
