“…The butterfly Parides burchellanus (Westwood, 1872) is a black winged Troidini, with occurrence reported in Minas Gerais state, northern São Paulo state, Goiás state and the Distrito Federal (Tyler et al 1994;Mielke et al 2004;Silva-Brandão et al 2008). Some populations of P. burchellanus have been referred to as of P. panthonus jaguarae (Foetterle, 1902) in the literature (Tyler et al 1994;Mielke et al 2004), but these taxa have been recently synonymized based on morphological (Mielke et al 2004) and molecular (Silva-Brandão et al 2008) evidence.…”

“…Parides burchellanus is endemic to the Cerrado (Brazilian savanna) domain in central Brazil, where it occurs in riparian forests along shaded stretches of streams and rivers (Mielke et al 2004;Beirão et al 2012). In the field, its only known host plant is the vine Aristolochia chamissonis Duchartre (Aristolochiaceae) (Mielke et al 2004), which occurs in association with shaded patches of undisturbed stream and riverbank soil.…”

From a population study carried out in the municipality of Brumadinho, central Minas Gerais state, Beirão et al (2012) observed that P. burchellanus showed strong association to riparian forests, along which adult individuals performed linear movements, being however absent from several other seemingly suitable sites, as well as its host plant.…”

Habitat and host plant specificity are considered the main determinants of the rarity and patchy occurrence of P. burchellanus in nature (Tyler et al 1994;Mielke et. al.…”

Abstract:We herein report new records of Parides burchellanus (Westwood, 1872) in southwestern Minas Gerais state, Brazil, in areas of the upper São Francisco and Araguari river systems, including the buffer zone of the Parque Nacional da Serra da Canastra. Until recently, the only known colonies of P. burchellanus were located in the municipalities of Brumadinho, in Minas Gerais state, and Planaltina, in the Distrito Federal, some 640 km apart from each other. The implications of these new records to the conservation status of this species are discussed.

Parides burchellanus is considered a rare and threatened swallowtail species restricted to central Brazil. It shows considerable morphological similarity to Parides panthonus jaguarae, with which it shares both geographical range and larval host plant. At present, P. burchellanus and P. panthonus are believed to be distinct species, based on minor differences in male genitalia. In this study, the phylogenetic and systematic position of P. burchellanus in relation to three subspecies of P. panthonus (P. p. jaguarae, P. p. lysimachus and P. p. aglaope) was evaluated using molecular evidence: the complete sequence of the mtDNA genes COI and COII and of the nuclear gene EF-1α (c. 3300 bp). In addition, the informativeness of the 'barcode' region next to the 5' end of COI (c. 650 bp) was evaluated for delimiting these taxa. Individual analysis by neighbour-joining, using Kimura 2-parameter distance model, and by maximum parsimony showed that P. p. jaguarae + P. p. lysimachus + P. p. aglaope + P. burchellanus form a strongly supported monophyletic clade, and all molecular regions consistently recovered P. p. jaguarae and P. burchellanus as sister species. The genetic divergence among the subspecies of P. panthonus and P. burchellanus is equivalent to the divergence among conspecifics of other species of Parides, and smaller than the interspecific divergence among different sister species of this genus. The results support the proposal that P. p. jaguarae and P. burchellanus are likely to be synonymous, and suggest that P. burchellanus can be considered conspecific with P. panthonus. The taxonomic classification of P. burchellanus should be revised on the basis of the molecular data.

Barcoding Lepidoptera: Situação Atual e Perspectivas sobre a Utilidade de uma Técnica Controversa RESUMO -A necessidade crescente de identificação e delimitação de novas espécies, ou de espécies crípticas já estabelecidas, que estão sendo perdidas a uma taxa também crescente, tem levado diversos especialistas a utilizarem uma variedade de ferramentas moleculares e computacionais. Neste momento, taxonomistas devem estar atentos a toda nova tecnologia disponível na chamada "revolução dirigida pela tecnologia" na sistemática, que tem entre as novas ferramentas moleculares a utilização de "DNA barcodes". O uso de "DNA barcode" tem sido amplamente discutido por aqueles que aplicam essa abordagem com sucesso para identificar e diagnosticar espécies, e por aqueles que acreditam que são tantos os problemas no uso desse marcador molecular que não se justifica seu emprego. Para insetos da ordem Lepidoptera nenhum lado parece estar totalmente certo ou errado e, embora alguns grupos de lepidópteros tenham sido resolvidos taxonomicamente pelo uso exclusivo ou adicional desse marcador, para outros o "barcode" ajudou pouco a resolver problemas taxonômicos. Aqui nós apresentamos brevemente prós e contras do uso de "DNA barcode" como ferramenta em estudos taxonômicos, com atenção especial para estudos com grupos de Lepidoptera desenvolvidos nos últimos anos. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Biodiversidade, DNA, espécie críptica, sistemática, taxonomia ABSTRACT -Faced by a growing need of identification and delimitation of new and established cryptic species that are being lost at an increasing rate, taxonomists can now more than ever take advantage of an enormous variety of new molecular and computational tools. At this moment they should be open to all new available technologies in the so called "technology-driven revolution" in systematics. The use of the "DNA barcode" has been discussed by those applying successfully this approach to identify and diagnose species and by those who believe that the flaws in the use of this molecular marker are as many as to negate the worth of its employment. For insects of the order Lepidoptera neither side seems totally correct or wrong, and although many groups of lepidopterans have been taxonomically resolved by using exclusively or additionally this marker for diagnoses, for others the "barcode" helped little to resolve taxonomic issues. Here we briefly present some pros and cons of using DNA barcode as a tool in taxonomic studies, with special attention to studies with groups of Lepidoptera developed in the last few years.
