Simple Summary Assessing the biodiversity of a site is challenging, as a comprehensive
survey of all plant and animal species is usually intractable due to limited resources. There …

Here we consider how best to sample moth diversity in a seasonal environment by
analyzing nightly data collected from 2011 to 2015 at a site in Clarke County, Georgia …

In this paper we establish the best period for sampling moth communities within the first half
of the night. We stress the importance of sampling duration in ecological studies that use …

Abstract Evaluation of species diversity for highly diverse taxa is extremely time-consuming
and costly; thus, there is a need to develop efficient sampling strategies. We established a …

The conservation of hyperdiverse taxa such as arthropods may prove frustrating for land
managers who lack the taxonomic expertise to perform species-level identifications …

The moth assemblages in forest ecosystems are often used as indicators of forest quality
and to monitor the effects of habitat degradation or ecological restoration and management …

Prediction of community response of fauna to anthropogenic or environmental disturbance
requires knowledge of faunal distribution and abundance as well as an understanding of the …

Macromoth diversity, abundance, and community structure in the topographically complex
HJ Andrews Experimental Forest and LTER site was studied on the west slope of the …

Using a combination of blacklight, mercury vapor light, and sugar bait sampling techniques,
we collected moths over a 2-yr period in Butler County, OH, and compiled a list of 392 …

Indicator taxa are often proposed as efficient ways of identifying conservation priorities, but
the correlation between putative indicators and other taxa has not been adequately tested …
