This study examines gene flow patterns in Heliconius butterflies, finding widespread introgression influenced by geographic overlap and ecological factors.

The paper examines genetic diversity loss and inbreeding in butterflies due to agricultural intensification, finding reduced diversity and increased isolation in a grassland specialist species.

The paper uses genomic data and phylogenetic methods to resolve the origins of two Satyrinae butterfly genera, finding Calisto originated from Old World ancestors and Llorenteana split early in Euptychiina.

The paper investigates how antipredator traits in skipper butterflies evolve in response to environmental variation, finding convergent evolution and rapid diversification of wing shape and color.

This study reconstructs the phylogeny of Neotropical limenitidine butterflies to explore the evolution of mimicry patterns and their relationship with speciation.

This study uses genome-level data to resolve the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary history of planthoppers, identifying new taxonomic placements and dating the origin of the group to the Permian period.
