Other claims from this paper (16)
- Association Lymantria mathura performed well on hosts in the family Fagaceae.
- Association Survival and growth rate of L. mathura were high on Fagus (beech).
- Association Survival and growth rate of L. mathura were high on Quercus (oak), particularly the white oak group.
- Association Performance of L. mathura was intermediate on the red oak group.
- Association Survival of L. mathura was poor on Pinaceae.
- Association Neonate dispersal rates of L. mathura exceeded those of Asian and North American gypsy moths.
- Association Neonates of L. mathura weighed less than Asian or North American gypsy moths.
- Association Neonates of L. mathura had slower settling velocities than Asian or North American gypsy moths.
- Recommendation Pheromone-baited traps would be important for detecting introductions of L. mathura.
- Association Fewer males performed searching flight in a pheromone plume than moths performing non-pheromone flight.
- Intervention effect Male performance did not differ when stimulated with female abdominal tip extracts or synthetic female-derived compounds.
- Observation Females of L. mathura initiated calling shortly after the start of scotophase.
- Observation Courtship of L. mathura occurred several hours after calling started.
- Observation Mating of L. mathura occurred after a calling female started wing fanning.
- Observation A low frequency atonal sound associated with wing fanning was recorded in both sexes of L. mathura.
- Observation Wing beat frequencies differed between sexes and species of L. mathura and related lymantriids.
