The unresolved phylogenomic tree of butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera): Assessing the potential causes and consequences

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 531-550, October 2022., 2022
Phylogenomics has helped us resolve much of the Lepidoptera tree of life, but the relationships among the superfamilies within Ditrysia, containing 98% of the order's species richness, remain unresolved. One of the unresolved questions is the phylogenetic position of the large microlepidopteran superfamily Gelechioidea, whose placement depends on the ...

Beyond the pest: Life history, ecology and ethnoentomology of the giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus)

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 733-747, June 2022., 2022
The giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus) is the heaviest known moth in the world, a traditional food resource to indigenous Australians and an ecosystem engineer, but it is primarily studied as a pest of Eucalyptus plantations. Here, I review the life history of this enigmatic insect and apply this perspective to the ecology, ethnoentomology and known ...

Exploring the power of moth samples to reveal community patterns along shallow ecological gradients

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 371-381, June 2022., 2022
Some functional or taxonomic groups are more likely to reflect environmental variation than others. We analyzed the suitability of e.g., macrolepidoptera, microlepidoptera, small‐sized species, and specialists to mirror variation in vegetation, as well as their susceptibility to weather and inter‐annual fluctuations.
