“…Other moth diversity studies carried out in various parts of North America recorded all of the species we found except N. rubrifrontaria. These other studies took place in diverse forested sites including balsam fir-red maple forests of New Brunswick (Thomas, 1996), mixed oak forests of West Virginia (Butler and Kondo, 1991), and riparian zones within coniferous forests of Oregon (Grimble et al, 1992). Thus, it seems unlikely that these moth species are burn specialists, except for N. rubrifrontaria.…”

“…Firstly, limited training and supervision is required for a technician or parataxonomist to collect insect specimens in the field, roughly separate them into morphospecies, prepare the specimens for museum deposition, and sample them for DNA analysis. Moreover, Grimble et al (1992) conducted a comparable inventory in the Pacific Northwest region and tallied 383 nocturnal moth species. UV light traps, pitfall traps, flight interception traps) are employed, and specimens are not sorted to morphospecies, the process becomes even further routine.…”

To facilitate future assessments of diversity following disturbance events, we conducted a first level inventory of nocturnal Lepidoptera in Stanley Park, Vancouver, Canada. To aid the considerable task, we employed high-throughput DNA barcoding for the rough sorting of all material and for tentative species identifications, where possible. We report the preliminary species list of 190, the detection of four new exotic species (Argyresthia pruniella, Dichelia histrionana, Paraswammerdamia lutarea, and Prays fraxinella), and the potential discovery of two cryptic species. We describe the magnitude of assistance that barcoding presents for faunal inventories, from reducing specialist time to facilitating the detection of native and exotic species at low density.

“…Hypena humuli is primarily associated with hops (Humulus lupulus L.) (Rosales: Cannabaceae), but has also occasionally been found on stinging nettles (Urtica spp.) (Urticales: Urticaceae) (Grimble and Beckwith 1992). These are the only recorded host plants of hop looper.…”

The hop looper, Hypena humuli Harris (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is becoming an increasingly important pest of hops (Humulus lupulus L.) (Rosales: Cannabaceae) in western USA. Currently, control of this pest usually involves broadspectrum pesticides that kill natural enemies and disrupt biological control of other hop pests. In order to develop better management strategies for H. humuli, field and laboratory studies were conducted over a four-year period to identify the pest's natural enemies and to investigate their phenologies and to assess their impact. Nine parasitoid species and assorted species of invertebrate predator were found to attack different life-stages of H. humuli. Levels of parasitism were consistently low throughout the study period and none of the parasitoids found was a specialist natural enemy of the pests. Exclusion cage studies showed, however, that the complex of natural enemies as a whole can significantly reduce larval densities of the pest, and laboratory studies confirmed successful predation of H. humuli larvae by several generalist predators including the European earwig (Forficula auricularia L.), the damsel bug Nabis alternatus Parshley and two species of the geocorid bug genus Geocoris.
