Overview

Detailed view

Data from the PHD-thesis of Dirk Süßenbach.
For additional information see references cited with the main dataset (list of specimens)

Nocturnal moths were sampled on 20 plots during three periods between 1999 and 2000 using light traps equipped with two backlight 15 W tubes operated between 18:30 and 21:30 local time (UTC-5:00). Catches were restricted to periods from three days after full moon until five days before full moon. Specimens were sorted to morphospecies within pyraloid moths (Pyraloidea). Data originates from PHD thesis of Dirk Süßenbach. He is the main author of the dataset. Süßenbach, D. (2003): Diversität von Nachtfaltergemeinschaften entlang eines Höhengradienten in Südecuador (Lepidoptera: Pyraloidea, Arctiidae). PHD-Thesis, available online at http://deposit.ddb.de/cgi-bin/dokserv?idn=967598044&dok_var=d1&dok_ext=pdf&filename=967598044.pdf

Geometrid moths caught during the PHD-thesis of Nadine Hilt in 2002 and 2003 are included. For additional information see references cited for the main dataset (list of specimens).

Data from PHD theses of Dirk Süßenbach and Nadine Hilt and diploma thesis of Manuela Zimmermann. They are the main authors of the data set.
