Isolation and characterization of 15 microsatellite markers for the highly invasive box tree moth Cydalima perspectalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2018
In this study, we report the development of a set of 15 polymorphic microsatellite markers for the box tree moth, Cydalima perspectalis (Walker), a highly invasive insect in Europe causing significant damage to natural and ornamental Buxus trees.

Calling and Mating Behavior of Diaphania angustalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2018
Diaphania angustalis Snellen (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) has emerged as a very important pest of blackboard tree, Alstonia scholaris (L.) R. Br. (Apocynaceae), in China during the last two decades. Understanding its biology and behavior is crucial for designing effective and environmentally friendly pest management strategies. Under laboratory conditions [

Development of Isothermal Amplification Assays for the Identification of Spodoptera eridania and Spodoptera ornithogalli (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Using Mitochondrial Gene Sequences

Entomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Although the southern armyworm (SAW), Spodoptera eridania, and the yellow‐striped armyworm (YSAW), Spodoptera ornithogalli, have not yet been introduced to Korea, they are listed as regulated quarantine pests in Korea because of their potential to cause serious economic losses in diverse agricultural crops upon introduction.

Phenological shifts and increases in voltinism within a moth community over a century of anthropogenic change

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In temperate ecosystems, warming temperatures can advance spring phenology, extend autumn phenology, disrupt dormancy regulation, result in phenological mismatch across taxa, and even lead to increases in the number of generations per year (i.e., increases in voltinism).

The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Korean Chilo suppressalis (Walker, 1863) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
We have determined the mitochondrial genome of Chilo suppressalis (Walker, 1863) collected in Korea. The circular mitogenome of C. suppressalis was 15,341 bp including 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, 22 transfer RNAs, and a single large

Juvenile hormone‐mediated accelerated post‐flight recovery of ovarian development in Loxostege sticticalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Flight in female beet webworms (Loxostege sticticalis) promotes an increase in feeding, thereby enhancing abdominal energy reserves. Following flight, the flight muscles undergo accelerated histolysis, and the energy substances undergoing histolysis are redirected to the ovaries. These two processes collectively promote ovarian development.

Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus undatus) Pollination in New Zealand: A Preliminary Report on Flower Visitors, Natural Pollen Deposition, and Artificial Pollination

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Dragon fruit (pitaya; Hylocereus undatus) is a promising, new high‐value crop in New Zealand. The large nocturnal flowers open for one night and close early in the morning the following day over a 3‐ to 6‐month long flowering period. In dragon fruit's native range, hawkmoths and bats are key nocturnal pollinators, and honey bees visit flowers during ...

Pests for Dinner: Dietary Composition of Insectivorous Bats in a Fragmented Tropical Dry Forest

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Insectivorous bats are key predators of a wide array of arthropods, including species that act as disease vectors and pests, yet such ecological roles remain poorly studied in tropical regions. In this study, we aimed to describe the diet of five insectivorous bat species from the genera Balantiopteryx, Myotis, Mormoops, and Pteronotus inhabiting a ...
