Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 We used the artificial prey technique to test the distractive marks hypothesis and warning hypothesis using the Pandora sphinx caterpillar as a model. Arthropod predators showed significantly higher attack rates on green colored prey models than red but only a tendency of higher attack on solid (non‐patch patterned) prey models, whereas vertebrates ...

Evolutionary history of Euteliidae (Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea)
Systematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 3, Page 445-462, July 2023., 2023 We elucidated evolutionary relationships of Euteliidae. The divergence time estimated Euteliidae ancestors originated about 53 Ma. Malpighiales are inferred to be ancestral larval hostplant order for Euteliidae. Abstract We performed a molecular phylogenetic analysis on the family Euteliidae to clarify deep divergences and elucidate evolutionary ...

The mitochondrial genomes of the Geometroidea (Lepidoptera) and their phylogenetic implications
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 In this study, we determined nine mitochondrial genomes for the Geometridae for the first time. A tRNA gene rearrangement was recognized in S. indicataria, which represents the first gene rearrangement reported for Geometroidea and is also unique in Lepidoptera.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 15, Issue 6, Page 739-751, November 2022., 2022 Macro‐ and micromoths were sampled in 47 extensively managed meadows located in a Swiss lowland region of high‐intensity agriculture. Altogether, results demonstrate that the preservation of integral moth communities within cultivated landscapes necessitates hedgerows and forest patches in complementation to grasslands that are extensively managed ...
