The Growth and Survival of Early Instars of \u3ci\u3eBellura Obliqua\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) on \u3ci\u3eTypha Latifolia\u3c/i\u3e and \u3ci\u3eTypha Angustifolia\u3c/i\u3e [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Larvae of the noctuid moth Bellura obliqua are frequently encountered on Typha latifolia, but less commonly on Typha angustifolia. Experiments were conducted to compare the growth and survivorship of early B. obliqua instars on the two species of cattail.

Do camera light traps for moths provide similar data as conventional funnel light traps?

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
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.

Settling moths as potential pollinators of Uncaria rhynchophylla (Rubiaceae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2016
Nocturnal pollinators such as moths have received less attention than diurnal insects. To elucidate whether nocturnal moths are important pollinators, we observed both the diurnal and nocturnal visitors to the flowers of Uncaria rhynchophylla (Rubiaceae)

Hairy Roadblock: Stem Trichomes Impede Herbivore Movement in a Species and Instar‐Dependent Manner

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants have evolved to deploy a vast set of defence mechanisms against insect herbivores, including physical barriers like leaf trichomes with pre and post ingestive effects. Yet, the role of stem trichomes in plant‐herbivore interactions, particularly mobility dynamics, is poorly understood.

Food induced variation of thermal constants of development and growth of Autographa gamma (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) larvae

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2002
The development stages of a species may have an identical lower development threshold (LDT) and proportionally different durations. This phenomenon called "rate isomorphy" (RI) has been demonstrated for a number of insect species.

Characterisation of Sex Pheromone and Genetic Strain in Rachiplusia nu (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Populations Across Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rachiplusia nu, known as the sunflower looper (SFL) and belonging to the Plusiinae subfamily, is a major defoliator of soybeans, sunflowers and other horticultural crops across southern South America. This species has recently expanded to central and northern regions of Brazil, becoming a key soybean pest.
