Research Abstract |
Lepidoptera fauna of five owl species nests was investigated in Japan. Seventeen moth species were identified : Niditinea striolella(Tineidae), Agonopterix sp.(Elachistidae) from Ketupa blakistoni nests ; Monopis longella(=pavlovskii), M. flavidorsalis, M. sp. M. congestella, Niditinea baryspilas, N. striolella, Tineidae sp.(Tineidae), Martyringa ussuriella(Oecophoridae), Mabra charonialis(Crambidae), Pyralis regalis(Pyralidae) from Strix uralensis nests ; Tinea translucens, Niditinea baryspilas(Tineidae) from Ninox scutulata nests ; Opogona sacchari, O. sp. Phaeoses sp. from Otus lempiji nests ; Opogona sacchari, Phaeoses sp., Setomorpha sp.(Tineidae), Endotricha theonalis(Pyralidae) from Otus elegans nests. The role as ecosystem engineers of owls and the relationships between moths and owls were discussed.
