Rapid diversification associated with ecological specialization in Neotropical Adelpha butterflies.

Molecular ecology - 1 May 2015

Abstract excerpt

Rapid diversification is often associated with morphological or ecological adaptations that allow organisms to radiate into novel niches. Neotropical Adelpha butterflies, which comprise over 200 species and subspecies, are characterized by extraordinary breadth in host plant use and wing colour patterns compared to their closest relatives. To examine the relationship between phenotypic and species...
