Descrição
FORMICA_LEPIDOPTERA is a sampling event dataset published by Ghent University. It contains information on 128 sampling events with 1595 validated occurrences of macro-moths in 2020. It contains information on 128 sampling events with 1595 validated occurrences of macro-moths in 2020. This dataset originates from research conducted by Vangansbeke et al. (2025), which investigated the influence of canopy structure and edge-to-interior gradients on macro-moth communities in Belgium and northern France. Light traps were employed for data collection. The study revealed lower moth abundance and species richness at forest edges, and reduced moth populations in open forest stands compared to closed stands. These findings highlight the critical role of functional forest interior habitats and structurally complex, relatively undisturbed forests for moth conservation. Issues with the dataset can be reported at https://github.com/inbo/fornalab-datasets/issues.
