This chapter deals with the connection between the light-trap collection of insects and the environmental factors that influence the trapping. These factors are as follows: the solar activity and its effects on the Earth (solar activity featured by Q-Index and the 2800 MHz radio flux, ionospheric storms and atmospheric radio noises, the interplanetary magnetic field sector boundaries, UV-B radiation of the Sun and geomagnetic indices), the moon phases and the polarized moonlight, the weather (macrosynoptic weather situations, weather fronts and air masses, weather events, weather elements), and air pollutants. The presented results show that these all modify the volume of captured insects.

“…The turnip moth A. segetum is a destructive polyphagous pest that occurs throughout Asia, Europe, and Africa. Its larvae cause severe damage to crops, including grains and vegetables [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] . In our previous field observation, it was found that female M. mediator was also attracted by the sex pheromone traps set for A. segetum .…”

“…These were reviewed by Hill [1]. In recent years, Nowinszky, et al [2,3]and Puskás, et al [4] used data from three continents including Australia to reveal relationships of light and pheromone trap catches to many lunar and solar factors such as lunar phase, illumination lux, illuminated fraction of the Moon, gravitational pull of the Sun and Moon, position of the Arago and Babinet points, polarization by the Sun and the Moon, sunspot numbers, solar 10.7 cm radio flux index, solar Q index and solar flare activity numbers.…”

BJSTR. MS.ID.007482.Values of the solar mean magnetic field were related to catch data for 40 taxa of Lepidoptera from a light trap in Tasmania, Australia operated for decades. This supplemented recent analyses of light trap data from three continents that revealed relationships between insect activity and many factors of the Sun and Moon. Magnetic field values, with corresponding relative catch values, were grouped into several classes. Within each group three point weighted moving averages of relative catch values were calculated. Almost half of the taxa showed a positive relationship between relative catch and absolute values of the solar mean magnetic field while one quarter showed a negative relationship.
