Resistance and Synergism of Insecticides in Diamondback Moth, Plutella Xylostella (Lepidoptera : Yponomeutidae) [PDF]

, 2000
A leaf-dipped bioassay was conducted to evaluate the toxicity of insecticides cypermethrin, permethrin, fipronil, avermectin b1 and emamectin benzoate against two lowland (Karak & Cheng strain) and a susceptible strains of diamondback moth (DBM).

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Jizz and the joy of pattern recognition:virtuosity, discipline and the agency of insight in UK naturalists’ arts of seeing [PDF]

, 2011
Approaches to visual skilling from anthropology and STS have tended to highlight the forces of discipline and control in understanding how shared visual accounts of the world are created in the face of potential differences brought about by multi ...

Modeling Spongy Moth Forest Mortality in Rhode Island Temperate Deciduous Forest

Forests
Invasive pests cause major ecological and economic damages to forests around the world including reduced carbon sequestration and biodiversity and loss of forest revenue. In this study, we used Random Forest to model forest mortality resulting from a 2015–2017 Spongy moth outbreak in the temperate deciduous forests of Rhode Island (northeastern U.S ...

Reintroduction of an Endangered Butterfly, the Mottled Duskywing (Erynnis martialis)

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We reintroduced Mottled Duskywing (Erynnis martialis), an endangered skipper butterfly, at different life‐stages to restored oak savanna habitat in Ontario, Canada and then performed intensive post‐release monitoring. Our results show that, at one of three sites, a population was established within two years of initiating releases and that pupae and ...

Influence of temperature and light on the development of moth larvae: Different response in the sister species Orthosia gothica and Orthosia cerasi

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 ...

Wallace's pARCs—Making Climate, Climate Change and Biodiversity Data Available to Protected Area Managers and Conservation Planners With an Example From Biebrza National Park, Poland

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
A spatial representation of the potential ‘adaptation effort’ that might be needed to maintain at least 75% of the species modelled in Biebrza National Park, Poland (white outline), at 1.5°C. The darker the green shading, the less adaptation would be needed.

Systematics and biology of some species of Micrurapteryx Spuler (Lepidoptera, Gracillariidae) from the Holarctic Region, with re-description of M. caraganella (Hering) from Siberia [PDF]

, 2016
During a DNA barcoding campaign of leaf-mining insects from Siberia, a genetically divergent lineage of a gracillariid belonging to the genus Micrurapteryx was discovered, whose larvae developed on Caragana Fabr. and Medicago L. (Fabaceae).

Palatability and Suitability of the Ulmaceae for Spongy Moth Larval Development (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae)1

Journal of Environmental Horticulture
Abstract Fifty-nine Ulmus taxa, varieties, and cultivars and six Zelkova taxa and cultivars were evaluated in no-choice (NC) and multiple-choice (MC) laboratory feeding bioassays for suitability and preference for spongy moth larvae (Lymantria dispar L.). Ulmus ‘Morton Stalwart’-CommendationTM, U.
