Abstract

Description and phylogenetic analysis of the Calycopidina (Lepidoptera, Lycaenidae, Theclinae, Eumaeini): a subtribe of detritivores

Butterflies (Lepidoptera, Papilionoidea and Hesperioidea) of the "Baixada Santista" region, coastal São Paulo, southeastern Brazil

“…continuing studies and long-range conservation strategies) even if no threatened species have been recorded in the present study. The entire area shows a unique combination of different habitats and geography that includes deep valleys, expansive mangroves, high mountains and lowland plains, which provide conditions for the presence of a rich and diverse fauna combining elements from Mielke (1996); 17 Brown & Freitas (2002b); 18 Mielke & Casagrande (1998) Mielke et al (2008); 23 Motta (2002); 24 Duarte et al (2010); 25 Monteiro et al (2010).…”

“…It is clear to us that, even with the large amount of information that exists for the Brazilian Atlantic Forest butterflies (see Freitas 2000a, b andSantos et al 2008) there are relatively few well sampled sites to allow comparative studies. Concentrated efforts to generate other lists of species are needed to help understand the distribution patterns of butterfly richness along the various environmental gradients of this endangered Biome (see also Duarte et al 2010;Monteiro et al 2010).…”

“…The taxonomy follows mostly Lamas (2004), but also Willmott (2003) for the genus Adelpha, Mielke (2005) for Hesperioidea, Wahlberg et al (2009) for the higher taxonomic categories for Nymphalidae, Duarte & Robbins (2010) for some hairstreaks (Lycaenidae, Theclinae, Eumaeini), and Hall (2005) for some metalmarks (Riodinidae).
