Insectivorous bats consumed consistent proportions of Lepidoptera (frequency and abundance) over the cotton‐growing season, despite a pronounced temporal shift in the composition of available arthropod prey orders in cotton crops. Abstract Insectivorous bats are efficient predators of pest arthropods in agroecosystems.

A revision of Agonopterix lacteella (Lepidoptera: Depressariidae) and establishing A. pallidior as a junior synonym [PDF]
Agonopterix lacteella (Caradja, 1920) was described on the basis of a single female specimen collected at Kasakewitsch, Russian Far East. Later on, A. pallidior (Stringer, 1930) was described, based on 6 specimens from Japan.
