Combining target enrichment and Sanger sequencing data to clarify the systematics of the diverse Neotropical butterfly subtribe Euptychiina (Nymphalidae, Satyrinae)

Abstract: The diverse, largely Neotropical subtribe Euptychiina is widely regarded as one of the most taxonomically challenging groups among all butterflies. Over the last two decades, morphological and molecular studies have revealed widespread paraphyly and polyphyly among genera, and a comprehensive, robust phylogenetic hypothesis is needed to build a firm generic classification to support ongoing taxonomic revisions at the species level. Here, we generated a dataset that includes sequences for up to nine nuclear gen… Show more

“…Although the precise phylogenetic relationships of Xikrin ueharapradoi with other lineages in the 'Archeuptychia clade' sensu Espeland et al (2019Espeland et al ( , 2023 cannot be assessed confidently based on the currently available data, the molecular phylogeny shows Xikrin as an isolated lineage with considerable genetic divergence from other members in the clade (see Table 3). Thus, the best decision at this time was to describe it as a monotypic genus, taking into account the low/moderate support for Xikrin as sister to any of the other lineages in the clade and the lack of strong morphological characters associating it with other genera in the clade, though the general features of the male genitalia are similar to its relatives.…”

“…The ML tree recovered Xikrin gen. nov. as part of the 'Archeuptychia clade' sensu Espeland et al (2019Espeland et al ( , 2023 along with the genera Archeuptychia Forster, 1964, Pseudeupytychia Forster, 1964, Cisandina and Stephenympha with strong support (SHaRLT = 99.7; aBayes = 1; UFBoot = 100) (Figure 1). In the clade, Xikrin gen. nov. appears as sister to Stephenympha + Cisandina, although with low/moderate support (SHaRLT = 66.8; aBayes = 0.827; UFBoot = 65), implying that its relationship with other genera in the clade could change in the future with the addition of more data.…”
