| Description: |
AbstractThe study of global biodiversity will greatly benefit from access to comprehensive DNA barcode libraries at continental scale, but such datasets are still very rare. Here, we assemble the first high-resolution reference library for European butterflies that provides 97% taxon coverage (459 species) and 22,306 COI sequences. We estimate that we captured 62% of the total haplotype diversity and show that most species possess a few very common haplotypes and many rare ones. Specimens in the dataset have an average 95.3% probability of being correctly identified. Mitochondrial diversity displayed elevated haplotype richness in southern European refugia, establishing the generality of this key biogeographic pattern for an entire taxonomic group. Fifteen percent of the species are involved in barcode sharing, but two thirds of these cases may reflect the need for further taxonomic research. This dataset provides a unique resource for conservation and for studying evolutionary processes, cryptic species, phylogeography, and ecology. see all

We are grateful to the many colleagues who supported the EUGENMAP project by providing specimens or relevant information. We thank authorities in all European countries that supported the project and provided permits for sample acquisition. Axel Hausmann kindly provided access to all butterfly data from the FBLRH project on BOLD. Support for this research was provided by a Marie Curie International Outgoing Fellowship within the 7th European Community Framework Programme (project no. 625997) and by the Academy of Finland to V.D. (Academy Research Fellow, decision no. 328895), as well as by projects CGL2010–21226/BOS and CGL2013–48277-P (Spanish Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad), CGL2016–76322 (AEI/FEDER, UE), PID2019–107078GB-I00 (AEI/10.13039/501100011033) and 2017-SGR-991 (Generalitat de Catalunya) to R.Vi. and by the projects “Ricerca e conservazione sui lepidotteri diurni di sei Parchi Nazionali dell’Appennino centro-settentrionale”, “Ricerca e conservazione sugli Impollinatori dell’Arcipelago Toscano e divulgazione sui Lepidotteri del parco” and “Servizio di attuazione delle azioni per la protezione degli impollinatori e diffusione dell’entomofauna del Parco Nazionale dell’Alta Murgia” to L.D. P.Hu. is indebted to the Promotion of Educational Policies, University and Research Department of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano – South Tyrol for funding. FinBOL was funded by the Academy of Finland (through FinBIF), Kone Foundation and Finnish Cultural Foundation. Support to P.He. from the Canada Foundation for Innovation, Ontario Genomics, Genome Canada, and the Ontario Ministry of Research and Innovation aided sequence analysis. |
