Records approximately 39 species of Rhopalocera, including unique taxa like the moth-like butterfly Castnia pinchoni .

By establishing a robust Taxonomic Reference , researchers and conservationists can better monitor population changes and prioritize protected areas. Resources like the Petit guide illustré des Papillons de la Guadeloupe and its Martinique counterpart translate this technical data into accessible tools for local ecological management.

These inventories highlight "trigger species"—taxa of high heritage value that are restricted to specific secondary or hygrophilous (wet) forest fragments. Conservation and Scientific Impact

Taxonomic revisions are essential for biological inventory management, particularly in regions with high endemism like the Lesser Antilles. Key goals include:
