  The Role of Flora in Preserving Moth Habitats: A Comprehensive Analysis
  Author(s): Sujata Saini*
  
  The agricultural landscapes of North-West India are characterized by a mosaic of urban areas, gardens, grasslands, fields, small forests, and semi-natural non-forest habitats. Such diverse environments support a wide array of moth species, particularly those within the superfamily Bombycoidea. Understanding the distribution and abundance of these moths is critical, as many species play significant roles in agriculture, either as pollinators or pests. This study aims to investigate the diversity and population dynamics of Bombycoidea moths in this region, with a focus on their conservation and the implications for habitat management. The study was conducted for 176 nights using a light trap to capture adult moths from the superfamily Bombycoidea. The research area encompassed a varied landscape including urban areas, gardens, grasslands, fields, small forests, and semi- natural non-for.. Read More»
