Year: 1987

Type: article

Abstract: Faunal characteristics of macrolepidopterous moths were investigated in various habitats ranging from forest to urban areas in Tomakomai.The faunal make-up in the forest was characterized by the predominance of Geometridae, whereas that in openland and urban areas was predominated by Noctuidae, especially subfamily Noctuinae.Twenty-eight predominant species were classified into three groups, forest, eurytopic and open land species.Adaptive significance of some life history characters in the openland species was discussed.
