Do camera light traps for moths provide similar data as conventional funnel light traps?
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 498-510, May 2026.We recorded moths using a traditional collection method (funnel light traps, FLTs) and compared them with records made using automated camera light traps (CLTs). In direct comparison, the recorded moth species richness was similar, but the CLTs were able to leverage their advantages over longer periods of time and recorded more species.

Tympanal and atympanal ‘mouth–ears’ in hawkmoths (Sphingidae) [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2002 The labral pilifers and the labial palps form ultrasound-sensitive hearing organs in species of two distantly related hawkmoth subtribes, the Choerocampina and the Acherontiina. Biomechanical examination now reveals that their ears represent different types of hearing organs.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We investigate the stratification of five clades of Lepidoptera: Erebidae‐Arctiinae, Geometridae, Hedylidae, Saturniidae, and Sphingidae in a tropical rain forest of the Chocó region in NW Ecuador. Average species richness was higher in the understory, median sample sizes were similar between strata and we found more species in regenerating forests ...

Morphospace exploration reveals divergent fitness optima between plants and pollinators.
PLoS ONE, 2019 The obligate mutualism and exquisite specificity of many plant-pollinator interactions lead to the expectation that flower phenotypes (e.g., corolla tube length) and corresponding pollinator traits (e.g., hawkmoth proboscis length) are congruent as a ...
