Hilltopping influences spatial dynamics in a patchy population of tiger moths

A. Pepi, P. Grof-Tisza, M. Holyoak, R. Karban

This study shows that hilltopping behavior in tiger moths affects spatial population dynamics and persistence, with non-random dispersal having significant impacts on patch occupancy and regional synchrony.

Influence of delayed density and ultraviolet radiation on caterpillar baculovirus infection and mortality

A. Pepi, V. Pan, D. Rutkowski, V. Mase, R. Karban

The paper investigates delayed density-dependent baculovirus infection and the impact of ultraviolet radiation on infection rates and survival in Ranchmans tiger moth caterpillars, finding delayed density dependence and UV radiation reducing infection severity.
