Exploring the power of moth samples to reveal community patterns along shallow ecological gradients
Some functional or taxonomic groups are more likely to reflect environmental variation than others. We analyzed the suitability of e.g., macrolepidoptera, microlepidoptera, small‐sized species, and specialists to mirror variation in vegetation, as well as their susceptibility to weather and inter‐annual fluctuations.

Central and Northern European caterpillar assemblages show strong phylogenetic structure
A free Plain Language Summary can be found within the Supporting Information of this article. Abstract Phylogenetic diversity metrics have been used to tackle an increasing number of questions in ecology and evolutionary biology. Here we present a novel use of phylogenetic diversity metrics namely the investigation of insect herbivore assemblages on ...

Refining the phylogeny of Crambidae with complete sampling of subfamilies (Lepidoptera, Pyraloidea)
Abstract Crambidae is a group of moths with more than 10,000 species occurring worldwide that evolved diverse morphological and ecological habits. They can be best recognized by morphological characters of the adult tympanal organ and larval chaetotaxy. We present the first molecular phylogeny of Crambidae including all subfamilies and most tribes.

Comparison of Macroheterocera assemblages of four forests in the Bereg Plain (Hungary, Ukraine) [PDF]
We compared the macro-moth assemblages of four forests from which one is extended on the Ukrainian and three on the Hungarian side of the Bereg lowland, and additionally one in the adjacent part of the Hungarian plain (NE of Carpathian Basin). The data were collected by light trapping during at least in five years in all sites.

In nearly every ecological community, most species are represented by a few individuals, and most individuals come from a few of the most common species. Singletons (one individual sampled) and doubletons (two individuals sampled) are very common in moth

The Effect of Herb Layer on Nocturnal Macrolepidoptera (Lepidoptera: Macroheterocera) Communities
Abstract Vegetation beneath the canopy might be an important factor for macromoth community composition in forest ecosystems, strongly determined by forest management practices. Herein, we compared nocturnal macrolepidoptera communities and herb layers in young and old sessile oak (Quercus petraea) dominated forest stands in the Sopron Mountains ...
