Walk a short distance through the Amazon Rainforest, and you might witness what look like dead leaves launch from the ground and fly off into the understory. These masters of disguise are euptychiines, one of the most diverse and least understood groups of butterflies in the American Tropics. The
Using DNA, Freitas and his colleagues show there are at least 70 Euptychiina genera

From massive whale skeletons to the tiniest shrew teeth, our mammals collection preserves a wide variety of specimens from Florida and around the world. Each specimen in a scientific collection provides a snapshot in time that researchers use to ask questions and gather data. As technology advances,

Online Collection Database The >700K specimen lots (2023) available digitally through the online database represent >95% of our collection. Sampled are cataloged with phylum-specific catalog numbers. Specimens from recent surveys are frequently accompanied by tissue samples and images. Tissue
Tissues and genomic DNA are held in cryogenic storage, and most can be accessed online

Hedylidae, commonly known as American Moth-butterflies, is a small, little-known family of Lepidoptera. This tropical family, restricted to Central and South America, includes only one genus, Macrosoma, with 36 species. Their common name alludes to their close relationships to butterflies as well as
In 2018, the Kawahara lab and collaborators conducted in-depth DNA analyses of this

Researchers from the University of Florida and six other institutions have unlocked some of the key foundations for the evolution of seed and flowering plants. The study, to be published online Sunday in Nature, is the first to identify the occurrence of ancient genome duplication events and show
Genome duplications result in organisms having twice as much DNA and an extra copy

A new University of Florida and Duke University collaboration aims to do for the tree of life what Google Earth did for navigation. A National Science Foundation grant of nearly $1 million will fund a three-year project to develop software that will make the context of every named and unnamed org
