Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
Charaxes lucyae is a butterfly in the family Nymphalidae. It is found in Tanzania.[1]
Very close to Charaxes eudoxus but with more dentate wing margins and longer tails; there are also minor differences in the genitalia [2]
The habitat consists of sub-montane and montane forests.
Subspecies
- Charaxes lucyae lucyae (north-eastern Tanzania)
- Charaxes lucyae gabriellae Turlin & Chovet, 1987[3] (north-eastern Tanzania)
- Charaxes lucyae mwanihanae Kielland, 1982[4] (eastern Tanzania)
Related species
Historical attempts to assemble a cluster of presumably related species into a "Charaxes jasius Group" have not been wholly convincing. More recent taxonomic revision,[5] corroborated by phylogenetic research, allow a more rational grouping congruent with cladistic relationships. Within a well-populated clade of 27 related species sharing a common ancestor approximately 16 mya during the Miocene,[6] 26 are now considered together as The jasius Group.[5] One of the two lineages within this clade forms a robust monophyletic group of seven species sharing a common ancestor approximately 2-3 mya, i.e. during the Pliocene,[6] and are considered as the jasius subgroup.[5] The second lineage leads to 19 other species within the Jasius group, which are split into three well-populated subgroups of closely related species.
The jasius Group (26 Species):[5]
Clade 1: jasius subgroup (7 species)
Clade 2: contains the well-populated three additional subgroups (19 species) of the jasius Group: called the brutus, pollux, and eudoxus subgroups.[5]
- the eudoxus subgroup (11 species):
- Charaxes eudoxus
- Charaxes lucyae
- Charaxes richelmanni
- Charaxes musakensis
- Charaxes biokensis[stat.rev.2005][5]
- Charaxes ducarmei
- Charaxes druceanus
- Charaxes tectonis
- Charaxes phraortes
- Charaxes andranodorus
- Charaxes andrefana[stat.rev.2025][5]
Further exploration of the phylogenetic relationships amongst existing Charaxes taxa is required to improve clarity.
