Eastern Himalaya and northeastern India are part of two global biodiversity hotspots, yet the critical butterfly-plant associations early stages most butterfly species in this region poorly recorded. We have reported larval host plants 78 species, some which rare endemic, providing specific information on spatial temporal details associated with these records. These records contribute region-specific Indian butterflies, may be useful basic ecological conservation studies future.
Mating across species occurs rarely in nature, which contends prevalent idea of biological concept. Throughout range, mating pattern varies and reproductive barriers are also not fixed among different species. In this study, two instances interspecific between widely common Nymphalid Tiger butterflies ( Danaus Kluk, 1780) Indian region reported. Observations imply lack absolute barriers, where possible interplay exists prezygotic postzygotic isolating factors compensating each other order to...
