Pseudergolinae is a small subfamily of nymphalid brush-footed butterflies. It is considered to include only seven species in four genera distributed mainly in the Oriental region.〔Wahlberg, Niklas and Andrew V. Z. Brower. 2009. Pseudergolinae Jordan 1898. Version 18 November 2009 (under construction). http://tolweb.org/Pseudergolinae/69948/2009.11.18 in The Tree of Life Web Project, http://tolweb.org/〕 ==Systematics== The circumscription of Pseudergolinae has seen some changes in the recent years, when it was first suggested that the tribes Cyrestini and Pseudergolini formed a monophyletic clade with subfamily status under the name Cyrestinae,〔Niklas Wahlberg , Elisabet Weingartner , and Sören Nylin 2003 ''Towards a better understanding of the higher systematics of Nymphalidae (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea)'' Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution 28: 473–484.〕 but then the tribes were split again—with subfamily status—as their positions within the Nymphalidae were defined more clearly.〔N. Wahlberg , J. Leneveu , U. Kodandaramaiah , C. Peña , S. Nylin , A. V. L. Freitas , and A. V. Z. Brower 2009 ''Nymphalid butterflies diversify following near demise at the Cretaceous/Tertiary boundary'' Proceedings of the Royal Society of London Series B Biological Sciences 276: 4295–4302.〕 It is now considered to be the sister group to the larger nymphaline clade, which includes the Nymphalinae, Cyrestinae, Apaturinae and Biblidinae. Four genera are recognized in the subfamily: *''Amnosia'' *''Pseudergolis'' *''Stibochiona'' *''Dichorragia'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pseudergolinae」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
