Data accumulated on the chemosensilla of foreleg tarsi of the female Papilio butterfly have established this structure as a chemosensory organ with an important role in the perception of oviposition regulating compounds (Ma and Schoonhoven, 1973, Ichinose and Honda, 1978, Stanton, 1979). In this...
Here, we have identified 56 ABC transporters and 58 Rab members in the genome of swallowtail butterflyPapilio xuthus. This is the first case of genome-wide gene copy number identification of ABC transporters in swallowtail butterflies and Rab family in lepidopteran insects. Aiming to investigate the...

If a butterfly did not lay any eggs within ten minutes of being released, we abandoned the observation. We were keen to use each tree for as short a time as possible, as the condition of its leaves cannot be assumed to stay constant over several days, particularly under the intense heat...

The visual abilities of flower foraging bee species have been particularly well studied [1,2]. Bees can learn to...
