- Better Common Names Project and Spongy Moth (video)
Joe Rominiecki
Names matter. The notorious gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar) has a new name; it is now spongy moth. This new name was not selected lightly. The Entomological Society of America has been forward-thinking to address the common names of insects that have been hurtful to groups of people and quick to develop a process to make these changes. - Hummingbird Predation as an IPM Tactic Against Spotted-Wing Drosophila (video)
Juliet Carroll
Hummingbirds require arthropods in their diet and may consume 2000 small insects per day when fledging young. In New York State, we investigated the use of feeders to attract Ruby-throated Hummingbirds into raspberry fields to encourage predation of spotted-wing Drosophila (SWD) with the goal of reducing fly populations and fruit infestation.
