Additional Distributional Records For A Rare Caddisfly In The Ozarks, Frenesia Missa (Milne) (Trichoptera: Limnephilidae), David Bowles
Additional Distributional Records For A Rare Caddisfly In The Ozarks, Frenesia Missa (Milne) (Trichoptera: Limnephilidae), David Bowles
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
This paper describes the distribution for this rare species in the Ozarks of Arkansas and Missouri thus expanding its known range in the region. The species is considered vulnerable to anthropogenic stressors.

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
In addition to the impacts of prescribed fires on forest vegetation, this ecosystem process also has dramatic impacts on associated insect assemblages. For herbivorous, terrestrial insects, fire predictably results in a cycle of initial insect population reduction followed by recovery and growth, in which these insect populations exceed pre-fire abundances. We sought to examine if fire-induced disturbance cycles make prescribed burned areas more or less suitable specifically for moths (order Lepidoptera), which is a major food source for, among others, multiple bat species. We surveyed moth assemblages at 20 burned and 20 unburned sites in the Boston Mountain and Ozark …
