Systematics and evolutionary history of butterflies in the “Taygetis clade” (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae: Euptychiina): Towards a better understanding of Neotropical biogeography

► Diversification of the group has been promoted by the major uplift of the Andes. ► Divergent lineages appear to have specialized on distinct larval dietary repertoire. ► A strong molecular phylogeny is proposed for the “Taygetis clade” butterflies.
