Box Tree Moth (Cydalima perspectalis, Lepidoptera; Crambidae), New Invasive Insect Pest in Croatia [PDF]
Background and Purpose: Alien invasive species have been described as an outstanding global problem. Hundreds of species are intentionally and unintentionally moved worldwide and and numbers of introductions to new habitats have been accelerated all over

Comparative metabolomics reveals how the severity of predation by the invasive insect Cydalima perspectalis modulates the metabolism re-orchestration of native Buxus sempervirens. [PDF]
Combining NMR– and LC–HRMS–based metabolomics reveals that root and leaf metabolic changes in boxwood predated by box–tree moth occur at the same density of predation for both central and specialized metabolisms. Abstract The recent biological invasion of box tree moth Cydalima perspectalis on Buxus trees has a major impact on European boxwood stands ...

Complete mitochondrial genomes of two moths in the tribe Trichaeini (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) and their phylogenetic implications. [PDF]
The complete mitochondrial genomes of two Prophantis species in the tribe Trichaeini were provided for the first time. Phylogenetic trees of Crambidae were reconstructed based on mitogenomic data using maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference analysis methods.

Evolution of parasitoid host preference and performance in response to an invasive host acting as evolutionary trap. [PDF]
Invasive species can act as an evolutionary trap for parasitoids when they are unsuitable for reproduction but indistinguishable from suitable hosts. Such incompatible interactions reduce parasitoids’ fitness and can reduce the viability of the population. Using an individual based model, we show how genetic variation in host preference and performance

Temperature experienced by insects during diapause can be an obstacle to their establishment in novel climates. We conducted experiments, using the weed biocontrol agent Hypena opulenta (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), to determine the effects of high diapause temperatures on lipid store depletion, and the effects of low diapause temperatures on pupal ...

Moth light traps perform better with vanes: A comparison of different designs
Abstract Many light trap designs exist in the field of applied and basic entomology for catching moths, yet a robust comparative analysis of structural designs of such traps is lacking. Our study compares the performance of three different trap designs to assess the effect of presence/absence of vanes and their colour on trapping efficiency.
