Drastic decline of extensive grassland species in Central Europe since 1950: Forester moths of the genus Jordanita (Lepidoptera, Zygaenidae) as a type example. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2022
Jordanita species (Lepidoptera) as a proxy for grassland species in general show a strong decline in Central Europe since 1950 which is mainly related to changing agricultural landuse and destruction of habitats. This article reviews thousands of observations, shows the decline and discusses the reasons in detail.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the euonymus defoliator moth, Pryeria sinica Moore, 1877 (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae) [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
We report the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Pryeria sinica (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae). The mitochondrial gene arrangement conforms to be conserved in Zygaenidae, including P. sinica, and is characterized by an inverted translocation of the

Mitochondrial genomes of four slug moths (Lepidoptera, Limacodidae): Genome description and phylogenetic implications. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
In this study, we sequenced the mitochondrial genomes of Parasa lepida, Phlossa conjuncta, Thosea sinensis, and Setora sinensis, and performed the first comparative genomic analyses of Limacodidae. The use of the ATT start codon by the cox1 gene in P. lepida is the first documented use of this start codon in Limacodidae mitogenomes. Within Zygaenoidea,

An annotated catalogue of the Procridinae of the World (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae)

open access: yesSHILAP
Almost 90 years have passed after the last publication of a catalogue of the family Zygaenidae of the world (Bryk, 1936). At that time there was no correct understanding of the taxonomic, genetic and ecological framework of the subfamily Procridinae ...

Complete mitochondrial genome of Neochalcosia remota (Walker, 1854) (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae) [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
The Zygaenidae family comprises diurnal moths recognized for their bright coloration and chemical defenses. Despite its ecological and evolutionary significance, mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) data remain scarce.

An application of the synthetic sex attractants from the series “EFETOV-2” for studying Procridinae in Italy (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae)

open access: yesSHILAP, 2020
The enantiomers of 2-butyl 2-dodecenoate synthesised in the Crimean Federal University are known as the sex attractants for Procridinae species (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae).

The first record of Jordanita (Solaniterna) subsolana (Staudinger, 1862) from Kazakhstan (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae, Procridinae)

open access: yesSHILAP, 2022
Jordanita (Solaniterna) subsolana (Staudinger, 1862) was discovered in eastern Kazakhstan using the sex attractant EFETOV-2 (2-butyl 2-dodecenoate) synthesised in the Crimean Federal University. This is the first record of J.

Application of two molecular approaches (use of sex attractants and DNA barcoding) allowed to rediscover Zygaenoprocris eberti (Alberti, 1968) (Lepidoptera, Zygaenidae, Procridinae), hitherto known only from the female holotype

open access: yesNota Lepidopterologica, 2014
The hitherto unknown males of Zygaenoprocris (Zygaenoprocris) eberti (Alberti, 1968) were attracted by sex pheromones in Afghanistan. Conspecificity with the female holotype was confirmed by using DNA barcoding.
