A new molecular phylogeny offers hope for a stable family level classification of the Noctuoidea (Lepidoptera) (2011, methodology): “Most recently, three landmark publications (Fibiger & Lafontaine 2005; Lafontaine & Fibiger 2006; Mitchell et al. 2006) presented detailed phylogenies and revised the classification of Noctuoidea three times, each classification having its own limitations and strengths (Roe et al. 2010).”
Relationships among the basal lineages of Noctuidae (Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea) based on eight gene regions (2013, background): “Thus, it can be suggested that the host growth form in Noctuoidea is evolutionarily more conservative than host affiliation (Mitchell et al. 2006).”
Annotated check list of the Noctuoidea (Insecta, Lepidoptera) of North America north of Mexico (2010, methodology): “341 Alypia octomaculata matuta - Th e taxon matuta is revised to the status of a subspecies of Alypia octomaculata by Powell and Opler (2009). It intergrades with the typical eastern form of A.”
Molecular phylogenetics of Erebidae (Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea) (2012, methodology): “It began with the exploration of molecular markers by Weller et al. (1994), who were then followed by Mitchell et al. (1997, 2000, 2006) and Zahiri et al. (2011).”
