Seasonal Occurrence of the Sod Webworm Moths (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) of Ohio [PDF]
, 2018 While nearly 100 species of sod webworms are known to occur in North America, the species complex and seasonal occurrence of these moths has been documented in relatively few states.

From a rare inhabitant into a potential pest – status of the nun moth in Finland based on pheromone trapping [PDF]
, 2020 Forests are being hit by climate change in various ways. This includes abiotic factors such as droughts, but also an increased risk of damage caused by biotic agents such as insects.

Cold atoms in non-Abelian gauge potentials: From the Hofstadter "moth" to lattice gauge theory [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 010403 (2005), 2005 We demonstrate how to create artificial external non-Abelian gauge potentials acting on cold atoms in optical lattices. The method employs $n$ internal states of atoms and laser assisted state sensitive tunneling. Thus, dynamics are communicated by unitary $n\times n$-matrices. By experimental control of the tunneling parameters, the system can be made

Scientific Reports, 2016 Nervous tissue is one of the most metabolically expensive animal tissues, thus evolutionary investments that result in enlarged brain regions should also result in improved behavioural performance.

Automated Visual Monitoring of Nocturnal Insects with Light-based Camera Traps [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Automatic camera-assisted monitoring of insects for abundance estimations is crucial to understand and counteract ongoing insect decline. In this paper, we present two datasets of nocturnal insects, especially moths as a subset of Lepidoptera, photographed in Central Europe.

"Moth-eaten effect" driven by Pauli blocking, revealed for Cooper pairs [PDF]
Pis'ma v ZhETF 92, 534 (2010) [JETP Letters 92, 534 (2010)], 2009 We extend the well-known Cooper's problem beyond one pair and study how this dilute limit is connected to the many-pair BCS condensate. We find that, all over from the dilute to the dense regime of pairs, Pauli blocking induces the same "moth-eaten effect" as the one existing for composite boson excitons.

RNA Interference in Moths: Mechanisms, Applications, and Progress
Genes, 2016 The vast majority of lepidopterans, about 90%, are moths. Some moths, particularly their caterpillars, are major agricultural and forestry pests in many parts of the world.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Detecting single molecules on large interfaces is challenging due to minimal perturbations on the sensing surface. Some biological systems achieve this feat using amplification mechanisms, but their molecular foundations remain unclear. To investigate, a Design of Experiments (DoE) approach examines how pH and ionic strength in conditioning solutions ...

First Record of Lepidoptera in Southern Brazilian Salt Marshes
EntomoBrasilis, 2013 Salt marshes are highly productive environments and economic importance, however, little attention is given to insects in this ecosystem, and its entomofauna unknown in Brazil.
