The endangered quino checkerspot butterfly, Euphydryas editha quino (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)
With the listing of the quino checkerspot butterfly, Euphydryas editha quino, as a federally endangered species, research into its ecology and conservation is necessary to allow for recovery planning and management. We review systematics, distribution, natural history, and conservation prospects, with reference to pertinent literature about other E. editha subspecies. Additional information is ...
متن کاملEffects of microclimate and oviposition timing on prediapause larval survival of the Bay checkerspot butterfly, Euphydryas editha bayensis (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)
We tested empirically whether microclimate and relative timing of oviposition affected prediapause larval survival and development rates in the federally threatened Bay checkerspot butterfly, Euphydryas editha bayensis (Nymphalidae). Most mortality in Bay checkerspot butterflies occurs among prediapause larvae. Because phenology of the butterfly’s larval hostplant, Plantago erecta, has been tho...
متن کاملA direct assessment of the role of genetic drift in determining allele frequency variation in populations of Euphydryas editha.
Estimates of allele frequencies at six polymorphic loci were collected over eight generations in two populations of Euphydryas editha. We have estimated, in addition, the effective population size for each generation for both populations with results from mark-recapture and other field data. The variation in allele frequencies generated by random genetic drift was then studied using computer si...

15 صفحه اولGENETIC DIVERSITY ASSESSMENT IN A METAPOPULATION OF THE BUTTERFLY Euphydryas gillettii
Euphydryas gillettii is a Rocky Mountain endemic butterfy distributed in small, widely separated populations, which appear to be declining. This paper presents the results of a genetic diversity assessment within and among E. gdlettii colonies comprising the Glacier National Park (GNP) metapopulation. Four colonies were assayed within GNP during 1988 and 1989, and two outgroups, colonies from I...
