Susceptibility of Cydalima perspectalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) larvae to some reduced-risk insecticides in laboratory bioassays

Journal of Forest Science, 2022
Box tree moth (BTM) Cydalima perspectalis (Walker, 1859) is the most harmful pest of different boxwood species in Europe and Asia including Caspian boxwood Buxus hyrcana in the Hyrcanian forests of Iran. Accessible and effective eco-friendly insecticides

Generation Rather Than Sex Shapes Wing Morphology in Cydalima perspectalis (Lepidoptera, Crambidae): Insights From Geometric Morphometrics and Climate‐Based Projections

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
An integrated framework combining geometric morphometrics and ecological niche modeling was applied to Cydalima perspectalis to assess intergenerational morphological variation, test sexual dimorphism, and predict future distribution under climate scenarios. Wing shape effectively discriminated between generations but not between sexes.

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.

More diverse temperate forests are more resistant against non‐native insect herbivores

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Promoting mixed forests could be an effective strategy to attenuate the impact of invasion by non‐native forest pests. Abstract In general, trees suffer less damage by insect herbivores when growing in forest mixtures than in tree monocultures. Yet, most current knowledge is based on responses of native herbivores to tree diversity.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

BIOLOGICAL PECULIARITIES OF CYDALIMA PERSPECTALIS (WALKER, 1859) IN THE CONDITIONS OF THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA

AGROFOR, 2020
The box tree moth Cydalima perspectalis (Walker, 1859) (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), dangerous pest boxwood plants in East Asia (China, Japan and Korea), is currently officially present in 35 countries of the Europe. In the plantations of Buxus sempervirens in the central zone of the Republic of Moldova, a new invasive pest C.

Comparative metabolomics reveals how the severity of predation by the invasive insect Cydalima perspectalis modulates the metabolism re–orchestration of native Buxus sempervirens

Plant Biology, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 818-833, August 2025.
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 ...

An Environmentally Friendly Method to Protect Box Trees (Buxus spp.) from Attacks by the Invasive Moth Cydalima perspectalis

Horticulturae
The non-native invasive box-tree moth Cydalima perspectalis causes severe damage to ornamental box trees (Buxus spp.) and natural boxwood stands. So far, no promising natural enemy of C. perspectalis has been discovered in Europe.
