Genomic analysis of Vanessa tameamea, the threatened Hawaiian endemic butterfly, reveals population genetic structure relevant to conservation efforts
2024-12-20
Abstract excerpt
Patterns of divergence and speciation on islands have long been of interest in the broader study of evolution. Hawaiʻi’s endemic Kamehameha butterfly (Vanessa tameamea) is experiencing population decline, but because of its high vagility and assumed genetic homogeneity as a species, its population structure has not been investigated. To evaluate V. tameamea genetic variation across the Hawaiian Islands, we assembl...
