Decoupled wing evolution reveals trait-specific links between morphology, geography, and diversification in Ithomiini butterflies.

This study examines the relationship between diversification and phenotypic evolution in Ithomiini butterflies, finding trait-specific and geographically structured links between forewing shape evolution and diversification.

A meta-analysis of Neotropical butterflies reveals long-term signature of the Pebas wetland on Neotropical biogeography

This study uses a meta-analysis of 1,361 Neotropical butterfly species to show that the Pebas wetland selectively constrained dispersal between the Andes and Amazonia, contributing to the modern diversity imbalance.

Discovering the unseen: a performance comparison of taxonomic classification methods under unknown DNA barcodes

This study compares taxonomic classification methods for DNA barcoding, finding that phylogenetic placement methods excel for arthropod COI barcodes while composition-based classifiers perform better for fungal ITS.

Phylogeny, systematics and evolution of mimicry patterns in Neotropical limenitidine butterflies

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