Systematics of Slovenian Dahlica Enderlein, 1912, subgenus Brevantennia Sieder, 1953 (Lepidoptera, Psychidae) [PDF]
The subgenus Brevantennia Sieder, 1953 of the genus Dahlica Enderlein, 1912 (Psychidae: Dahlicini) is represented by a group of 10 bagworm moth species, distributed in south-west and south-east Europe northwards to the Alps and Carpathians. This study is

Unlocking the potential of historical abundance datasets to study biomass change in flying insects
Assessment of trends in insect biomass is hampered by a lack of data. To address this, we developed a method to estimate the biomass of historical samples of moths, where abundance and species identity have been recorded. Estimates made using this method explain >85% of total variation in sample biomass, allowing biomass to be predicted to an ...

Notes on the identity of Oiketicoides tedaldii (Heylaerts, 1882) (Psychidae, Oiketicinae) [PDF]
The identity of a group of species around Oiketicoides tedaldii (Heylaerts, 1882) is discussed. The comparison of the taxa in question shows that there is considerable uncertainty about the taxonomic classification of the various described populations of

13. Psychidae – bagworm moths Males are minute to small (8–25 mm wingspan) moths with drab brown wings; most females are wingless, and many resemble larvae. Larvae construct cases of plant matter and debris, in which they move about while feeding. Most species feed on plants, but at least one genus (Dahlica) feeds on lichens and debris. Parthenogenesis

Several studies address the question of which forest attributes are most important for the conservation of biodiversity. Unfortunately, there are no unequivocal answers because the response of a biological group to changes in forest structure depends on ...
