Objective: To see how farming affects the body size of  Heliconius butteflies in Costa Rican farms. Methods: We measured adults and pupae of Heliconius cydno, H. erato, H. hecale and H. melpomene in 10 butterfly farms, in the Huetar Atlantic Region of Costa Rica. Results: In some farms, adult Heliconius erato and H. hecale are heavier (p≤ 0.05), and have a longer abdomen and larger forewings. The weight did not differ among farms, and the sex ratio is close to 0,5. Conclusion: All farms sampled produce butterflies of fit for commercialization.Introducción: La producción de mariposas es una actividad socioeconómica importante y se ha convertido en una opción para generar ingresos en las microempresas rurales. Objetivo: Observar como los zoocriaderos afectan el tamaño corporal de mariposas Heliconius, producidas en zoocriaderos de Costa Rica. Métodos: Medimos adultos y pupas de Heliconius cydno, H. erato, H. hecale y H. melpomene de 10 zoocriaderos de mariposas, ubicados en el la zona Huetar Atlántica de Costa Rica. Resultados: En algunos zoocriaderos las mariposas adultas de Heliconius erato y H. hecale son significativamente más pesadas (p ≤ 0,05), poseen un abdomen más largo y el ala anterior más grande. El peso no difiere entre zoocriaderos, las relaciones de sexos son cercanas a 0,5. Conclusiones: Todos los zoocriaderos muestreados producen mariposas con calidad para su comercialización.Universidad Estatal a Distancia, Costa Rica2019-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionartículo originalhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/epub+ziphttps://revistas.uned.ac.cr/index.php/cuadernos/article/view/269910.22458/urj.v11i3.2699UNED Research Journal; Vol. 11 No. 3 (2019); 378-387UNED Research Journal; Vol. 11 Núm. 3 (2019); 378-3871659-441X1659-4266reponame:Portal de Revistas UNEDinstname:Universidad Estatal a Distanciainstacron:UNEDspahttps://revistas.uned.ac.cr/index.php/cuadernos/article/view/2699/3354https://revistas.uned.ac.cr/index.php/cuadernos/article/view/2699/3472https://revistas.uned.ac.cr/index.php/cuadernos/article/view/2699/3473Derechos de autor 2019 UNED Research Journalacceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-09-01T20:20:19Zoai:revistas.investiga.uned.ac.cr:article/2699Universidadhttp://www.uned.ac.crhttps://revistas.uned.ac.cr/index.php/index/oaissegura@uned.ac.crCosta RicaNo aplicaNo aplicaNo aplicaopendoar:02025-06-01T10:59:53.014Portal de Revistas UNED - Universidad Estatal a Distanciafalse
