Comparative Analysis of Lepidopteran Community Structure Using DNA Metabarcoding: Warm-Temperate Forest Versus Grass-Shrub Ecotones in Pangquangou National Nature Reserve. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study confirms that the method based on DNA metabarcoding qualifies as a cost‐efficient alternative to traditional approaches, as well as a better understanding for future assessment of insect diversity. ABSTRACT Lepidoptera is a widely geographically distributed insect order that plays crucial ecological roles in forest and grass‐shrub ecosystems

Synergistic Bioconversion of Date Palm Leaves Into Ruminant Feed by a Leopard Moth (<i>Zeuzera pyrina</i> L.) Gut Bacterial Consortium and Nutrient Stimulators. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrTreating date palm leaves with a bacterial consortium, especially when supplemented with glucose and urea, significantly degrades lignin. This process enhances nutritional value by increasing crude protein, digestibility, and metabolizable energy. The method effectively transforms this agricultural by‐product into a viable ruminant feed.

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 12, Page 2363-2372, December 2023., 2023 Bigger prey is at higher risk of detection by predators simply because of their size imposing stronger selection on anti‐predator traits. Here, we show how variation in body size influences prey detectability as well as acoustic camouflage in the well‐known arms race between nocturnal moths and echolocating bats.
