Lepidoptera: Biology and Taxonomy

Taxonomic studies combining morphological and molecular characters have become increasingly important in recent years for estimating species diversity and evolutionary relationships. The presented study includes the result of the morphological and molecular analyses of Thymelicus Hübner, 1819 (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae…

Neognopharmia Wehrli, 1953 (Lepidoptera: Geometridae: Ennominae), comprises three species in the Palearctic Region. In this comprehensive morphological study, variations in adult morphology, male genitalia, aedeagus and 8th sternite of Neognopharmia stevenaria (Boisduval, 1840) (Lepidoptera: Geometridae: Ennominae) ar…

In this study, the post-larval (female) stage of Abrolophus bochkovi Hakimitabar, Saboori & Fadaei, 2020, previously known only from the larval stage, is described for the first time through experimental laboratory rearing. Larval specimens from Türkiye and Iran were compared to confirm the species identification. In…

This study was created by Ichneumonidae species collected from four different provinces (Ağrı, Iğdır, Kars, Muş) in the Eastern Anatolia region of Türkiye between 2022 and 2024. In this study, four subfamilies (Acaenitinae Forster, 1869; Anomaloninae Viereck, 1918; Ichneumoninae Latreille, 1802 and Tryphoninae Shuckar…

2.5 Tribe Pholidopterini Ramme, 1951 The tribe Pholidopterini was established by Ramme (1951) when he split the genus Pholidoptera Wesmaël, 1838 into five separate genera (as he had not indicated to generic types, new genera of Ramme were validated by Mařan (1953)). Since then, several new genera and species have been…

LepEU, the European Lepidopteran Population Genomics Consortium, was launched in 2023 to coordinate continental-scale collections and generate population-level genomic data for butterflies and moths across Europe. Its whole-genome resequencing strategy takes advantage of the growing availability of reference genomes f…

This study investigated the seasonal activity of adult Kermania pistaciella Amsel (Lepidoptera: Tineidae), larval infestation levels, and the influence of environmental factors in pistachio orchards in Kilis Province, Türkiye, during the 2018 and 2019 growing seasons. Adult populations were monitored using delta traps…
