Exochorionic characters in systematics of Papilionoidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera): importance of techniques in the production of images

We present a panoramic view of the current proposal by Llorente-Bousquets et al., on the use of exochorionic characters in systematics of Papilionoidea (Insecta: Lepidoptera), with an emphasis on their imaging techniques. It includes: 1) a brief history of the taxonomic interest of Llorente-Bousquets in oocytic structures; 2) summaries of their standardized techniques for the study and illustration of the exochorion; 3) discussion about their use of images in the conceptualization, representation, and use of exochorionic characters; 4) future prospects in exochorionic research of Papilionoidea.
