(1/6) 🦋 We are thrilled to announce the release of the 1,000th reference genome of Lepidoptera species found in Europe! This goal was reached with the release of Stenoptilia islandicus, also known as the mountain plume moth. Read the story below!👇🏽

👩🏾‍💻 It’s finally here! 👩🏾‍💻 We’re excited to announce the launch of our official website for Cost Action 10kLepGenomes: www.10klepgenomes.eu 🦋 We invite you to explore and stay updated with our progress in Lepidoptera genomics! 🧬 #10kLepGenomes #Lepidoptera #Genomics

Tempo and mode of winter diapause evolution in butterflies doi.org/10.1093/evle... Now in @EvolLetters by Sridhar Halali, Etka Yapar, Christopher W Wheat, Niklas Wahlberg, Karl Gotthard, Nicolas Chazot, Sören Nylin, and Philipp Lehmann

A milestone for the ERC Gaia project and a great work from Eliette's PhD thesis! The complete genome sequences of 148 out of 162 species of Leptocircini with phylogenetic study: resjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Our article on the evolution of Apollo butterflies just got published in @ssbbulletin.bsky.social 🦋 We investigate how using total-evidence dating with the two Parnassiinae fossils reshapes their age and historical biogeography. 🌍 @cnrs.bsky.social #ISEM #evolution 👉 doi.org/10.18061/bss...
