  • Individual photographic identification based on unique colour pattern of the thorax of Acherontia atropos (Linnaeus, 1758) (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) A. Ruiz de la Hermosa F. Truyols-Henares S. Pinya Biología APHIS Spain Lepidoptera natural marks Balearic Islands Natural marks have increasingly been used as a tool for individual identification. One of the most popular techniques used by natural marks as an individual recognition tool is photo-identification. Photo-identification is a non-invasive alternative to traditional marking, which allows individual recognition of species through time and space. In this study, the APHIS (Automatic Photo Identification Suite) software has been evaluated as software capable of identifying individuals of Acherontia atropos (Linnaeus, 1758). The SPM (Spot Pattern Matching) and ITM (Image Template Matching) procedures were tested and found to achieve 100% success of individuals recognition. Thus, for the first time in a Sphingidae, the colour pattern of the dorsal part of the thorax of A. atropos is demonstrated to represent a suitable natural mark for individual recognition. 2022 artículo científico 0300-5267 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=45570566007 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/455/45570566007/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/455/45570566007/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/455/45570566007/45570566007.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/455/45570566007/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=455 SHILAP Revista de lepidopterología application/pdf Sociedad Hispano-Luso-Americana de Lepidopterología SHILAP Revista de lepidopterología (España) Num.197 Vol.50
