“…Alguns destes registros chamam a atenção pela forte associação com os hábitats onde foram observadas: Actinote brylla Oberthür, 1917 e Memphis editha (Comstock, 1961) são espécies características de ambientes de terras baixas mais próximas a Mata Atlântica de faixas litorâneas. Actinote brylla, Memphis editha, Aricoris constantius (Fabricius, 1793) e Euselasia thucydides thucydides (Fabricius, 1793) tiveram seus limites sul de distribuição ampliados para a Mata Atlântica brasileira, anteriormente registradas até Santa Catarina (Callaghan 2001, 2010, Dias et al 2012. É importante ressaltar a quantidade de riodinídeos exclusivos para estas formações de Mata Atlântica, bem como o primeiro registro de Rethus periander (Cramer, 1777) e do licenídeo Arcas imperialis (Cramer, 1775) para o Rio Grande do Sul.…”

Resumo: Este trabalho teve como objetivo elaborar uma lista de espécies de borboletas de Matas Paludosas e de Restingas da Planície Costeira do Rio Grande do Sul e de Santa Catarina contribuindo para o conhecimento da fauna de borboletas da Mata Atlântica. Foram compilados dados obtidos com amostragens realizadas através de duas técnicas de coleta (armadilha com isca atrativa e rede entomológica) nos anos de 2005 e 2011. Com um esforço amostral de 10.920 horas com armadilhas e de 360 horas-rede foram encontradas 225 espécies de borboletas nos dois ambientes, distribuídas em seis famílias e 19 subfamílias. Vinte e cinco espécies são registros novos ainda não publicados para o Rio Grande do Sul e 35 espécies são novos registros para a Mata Atlântica do Rio Grande do Sul, sendo seis Nymphalidae, dez Hesperiidae, doze Lycaenidae e sete Riodinidae. Os resultados gerados no presente estudo são fundamentais para o conhecimento e conservação dos táxons estudados bem como dos ambientes aos quais estão associados. Palavras-chave: Mata Atlântica, Parque Estadual de Itapeva, novos registros, riqueza de espécies.

“…A supertree for all 71 species of the basal nymphidiine subtribes Aricorina and Lemoniadina, compiled using the generic-level phylogenetic hypothesis of this study, the species-level phylogenies for Aricoris and Synargis from this study, and those for Ariconias, Lemonias, Thisbe, and Juditha from Hall and Harvey (2001a). Note that the reanalysis of this last data set using Synargis instead of Aricoris as the outgroup produced the same topology, and that although the recently described Thisbe rupestre was not included in the cladogram of Hall and Harvey (2001a), reanalysis of that data set using the limited morphological information available in Callaghan (2001) indicated it to be the sister to Thisbe molela, as suggested by Hall and Harvey (2001a). Reared species are indicated in bold-face type with the relevant references as superscript numbers.…”

Cladistics

Three cladistic analyses, based predominantly on adult morphology, are presented for myrmecophilous riodinid butterflies in the tribe Nymphidiini. The first is a species-level analysis of all 22 species recognized here in Aricoris ( ¼ Audre auctt.) using 27 characters. The second is a species-level analysis of all 24 species recognized here in Synargis using 53 characters. The third is a genericlevel analysis of all six genera (Aricoris, Ariconias n. gen., Lemonias, Thisbe, Juditha, and Synargis) recognized here as belonging in the basal clades of the Nymphidiini (¼Lemoniadina auctt.) using 17 characters, with members of the Theopeina and Nymphidiina included with the ingroup to assess the monophyly of subtribes. Almost all characters are illustrated. The first analysis indicates that Aricoris consists of five monophyletic species groups, with the relationship ((constantius gr. + colchis gr.) + (chilensis gr. + (aurinia gr. + epulus gr.))), and contains the type species of Eiseleia and Audre, which are synonymized with Aricoris (n. syns.). The second analysis indicates that Synargis consists of four monophyletic species groups, with the relationship (phliasus gr. + (regulus gr. + (pittheus gr. + abaris gr.))), and contains the type species of Ematurgina and Thysanota, which are synonymized with Synargis (n. syns.). The third analysis indicates that the Lemoniadina, or basal clades of the Nymphidiini, are paraphyletic with respect to the Theopeina and Nymphidiina, with the generic relationship ((Aricoris + Ariconias) + (((Lemonias + Thisbe) + (Juditha + Synargis)) + (Theopeina + Nymphidiina))). We therefore restrict the Lemoniadina to include Lemonias, Thisbe, Juditha, and Synargis and provide the name Aricorina n. subtribe for Aricoris and Ariconias. All nymphidiine subtribes are characterized and a synonymic checklist for the Aricorina and Lemoniadina is presented. A ''supertree'' composed of the species-level phylogenies derived here for Aricoris and Synargis, and those derived elsewhere for Ariconias, Lemonias, Thisbe, and Juditha, is used to map the distribution of larval host plant and attending ant taxa and the occurrence of aphytophagy. Observed patterns are discussed.

A total of 251 butterfly species were recorded in Uberlândia region, with collecting concentrated mainly in forest areas. Aspects of geographic distribution of some Ithomiinae, as well as interactions of both adults and immatures with plants, and reproduction periods for the more abundant species are discussed. Collections in open, riverside, and wetland areas, as well as the use of bait, should substantially increase the number of species.
