Decoupled wing evolution reveals trait-specific links between morphology, geography, and diversification in Ithomiini butterflies

Understanding when species diversification and phenotypic evolution are coupled remains a central challenge in macroevolution. Such coupling may depend on the traits considered, phenotypic integration, or the geographic context in which diversification occurs. Here, we investigate these relationships in Ithomiini, a di...
