eucalyptus species are cultivated in homogeneous plantations in brazil, mainly to supply woodfor the cellulose and steel industries, which favors the establishment of insect pests. the objective was todetermine the geographical distribution and structure abundance of lepidoptera defoliators of eucalypt.primary pest species of eucalypt of the order lepidoptera were found in all areas sampled and...

Two new endemic Hawai'ian Lepidoptera species are herein described. The first, Pseudoschrankia brevipalpis sp. nov., is a pollinator of the rare endemic plant Schiedea kaalae Wawra. The second, Thyrocopa keliae sp. nov., is endemic to Moloka'i island. Observations of undescribed parasitic mites that attack Hawai'ian Lepidoptera are presented as well.

Aiming to contribute to knowledge of the immature instars of Neotropical Lepidoptera, this study details the morphology of the egg and last instar larvae of Aucula magnifica (Schaus, 1904) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae: Agaristinae), emphasising the structures of the corium and the chaetotaxy. There is also a report of the occurrence of entomopathogenic action of Nomuraea rileyi (Farlow) Samson fungi...

Cyanogenic Glycosides, Linamarin, Lotaustralin, Biosynthesis, Lepidoptera C -13 NMR data for linamarin and lotaustralin, obtained after feeding of either Zygaena Jilipendulae or Heliconius melpomone (Lepidoptera) with C-13 enriched valine and isoleucine respectively, indicate that intact units of amino acid with loss of the carboxyl group are incorporated during the biosynthesis of these cyanog...

For trophic interactions to generate population cycles and complex spatio-temporal patterns, like travelling waves, the spatial dynamics must be matched across trophic levels. Here, we propose a spatial methodological approach for detecting such spatial match-mismatch and apply it to geometrid moths and their larval parasitoids in northern Norway, where outbreak cycles and travelling waves occu...

BACKGROUND The chromosome characteristics of the butterfly Bicyclus anynana, have received little attention, despite the scientific importance of this species. This study presents the characterization of chromosomes in this species by means of cytogenetic analysis and linkage mapping. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Physical genomic features in the butterfly B. anynana were examined by karyoty...

Uzorkovanje kukaca (Insecta) tijekom 2009. godine na sredini Jadranskog mora obavljeno je tijekom mrkle noći, čije je rezultat zabilješka 12 vrsta iz reda dvokrilaca (Diptera) i dvije vrste leptira iz reda (Lepidoptera). Utvrđene vrste svrstane su u sljedeće porod...
