In Lithuania, the quarantine species Hyphantria cunea was not caught in pheromone traps during investigations in 2001. Moths of 80 species belonging to 16 families were caught in pheromone traps for H. cunea. One new for Lithuania species Elachista unifasciella was recorded. Some rare for Lithuania species (Denisia luticiliella, Cnephasia pasiuana, Eana incanana, Cnephasia incertana, Scoparia basistrigalis, Eupithecia denotata, and Mesapamea didyma) were trapped, and their new distribution localities were detected. Moths caught in pheromone traps most frequently were described.
During 1995 and 19992001 investigations the quarantine pest Heliothis armigera was registered in two new sites of two Lithuanian districts. Moths of 75 species belonging to 14 families were caught with pheromone traps for H. armigera during 19992001 with species rare for Lithuania (Agonopterix liturosa, Anarsia lineatella, Argyresthia sorbiella, A. curvella, A. albistria, Calybites phasianipennella, Coleophora graminicolella, Cydia lunulana, Heliothela wulfeniana, Pammene spiniana, Platyptilia calodactyla) among them. Moths most frequently caught with H. armigera pheromone traps were elucidated. New localities of Simyra albovenosa and Xanthia gilvago were ascertained, one for each of the species.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
