This tree diagram shows the relationships between several groups of organisms.
The root of the current tree connects the organisms featured in this tree to their containing group and the rest of the Tree of Life. The basal branching point in the tree represents the ancestor of the other groups in the tree. This ancestor diversified over time into several descendent subgroups, which are represented as internal nodes and terminal taxa to the right.
You can click on the root to travel down the Tree of Life all the way to the root of all Life, and you can click on the names of descendent subgroups to travel up the Tree of Life all the way to individual species.

close boxIntroduction
The evidence supporting the division between the two subtribes of Adoliadini is biogeographical–Adolianina are distributed from India to New Guinea, while Bebearina are Afrotropical. Preliminary molecular data (Wahlberg unpubl.) support this pattern.
A great deal of revisionary work has been conducted recently on various speciose genera in Bebearina, resulting in a startling number of new species. It is unusual that so many new species are still to be discovered in butterflies, even those that dwell in tropical African forests.
