African-Arabian and Asian-Pacific "Mocis frugalis": Two distinct species (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
European Journal of Entomology, 2000 It is shown that under the name Mocis frugalis (F., 1775), considered to represent a widespread pest of graminaceous crops in the Eastern hemisphere and the Pacific, two species have been hitherto confused.

Effect of bulb type on moth trap catch and composition in UK gardens
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.We analyse 10 years of records Garden Moth Scheme (GMS) to estimate the effect of bulb and trap type on the number of moths caught by moth traps. We find that brighter, higher wattage bulbs collect the most moths. Heath traps catch fewer moths than Robinson or Skinner‐stye traps.

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Pollination is a key ecosystem service, yet most studies focus on diurnal interactions, often overlooking nocturnal pollinators such as hawkmoths and settling moths. In arid environments, nocturnal pollination plays a crucial role in maintaining native plant species of high biocultural value, as seen in the Caatinga dry forest.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Insect‐derived molecular cues can prime plant defences against herbivore attack. The genes that are sensitive to priming, and how their expression changes on the scale of days, have not been fully resolved. Moreover, priming may affect interactions with insects that are not the source of the priming cue.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plants can perceive specific elicitors in the oral secretions (OS) of herbivorous insects and respond by increasing their defences. Whether plants can discriminate among similar herbivorous insect species and differentially modulate their defence responses against them is largely unknown.

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.Experimental rearing of Orthosia gothica and Orthosia cerasi larvae under four controlled climate‐chamber treatments (15°C vs. 20°C; 24h darkness vs.12h light/12h dark) to isolate temperature and light effects on development. Repeated measurements of larval body size, biomass and pupation timing to quantify how growth rates and developmental duration ...
