Airborne Environmental DNA for Moth Monitoring: Effectiveness, Challenges, and Complementarity With Traditional Methods

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Airborne eDNA metabarcoding captured broad patterns of moth diversity and detected species missed by light traps, but failed to reflect abundance and recovered fewer species overall. Airborne eDNA shows promise as a complementary, non‐invasive tool for Lepidopteran monitoring, though methodological refinement remains essential.

Integrating Sanger and next‐generation sequencing data sheds light on phylogenetic relationships among gelechioid moths (Lepidoptera: Gelechioidea)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
The maximum‐likelihood analysis of a phylogenomic dataset of 1767 protein‐coding genes from 57 ingroup taxa yields a robust family‐level topology for Gelechioidea, revealing novel among‐family relationships. Integration of the phylogenomic dataset with the available taxon‐rich Sanger‐sequenced data provides insights into the monophyly of the 20 ...

Plant–arthropod associations in custard apples, genus Annona: A global perspective

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 651-660, July 2025.
Annona species, commonly known as custard apples, engage with a wide range of arthropods, including both herbivores and pollinators, which shape their ecology. These plants produce secondary metabolites that may serve as natural defenses against pests.

Accidental Fire in the Cerrado: Its Impact on Communities of Caterpillars on Two Species of Erythroxylum

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Among the mechanisms that influence herbivorous insects, fires, a very frequent historical phenomenon in the cerrado, appear to be an important modifying influence on lepidopteran communities. The purpose of this study was to compare the richness, abundance, frequency, and composition of species of caterpillars in two adjacent areas of cerrado sensu ...

Defensive Regurgitation by A Noctuid Moth Larva (Litoprosopus Futilis)

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 100, Issue 3-4, Page 209-221, 1993., 1993
Larvae of the noctuid moth Litoprosopus futilis regurgitate when disturbed. The oral effluent proved deterrent to ants on nearcontact, and topically irritating in a scratch test with a cockroach. Larvae regurgitated when attacked by lycosid spiders and derived some protection from this behavior.
