| Abstract | This study aimed to investigate the species diversity and abundance of moths in the integrated agriculture area at Nam Suay Subdistrict, Mueang Loei District, Loei Province. The moth specimen collections were conducted from March 2022 to February 2023. A site sampling method was performed by using a light trap from 7 p.m. to midnight. The results showed that the collected 299 moths belonged to 75 genera and 89 species, including Family Arctiidae with 13 species, Family Crambidae with 1 species, Family Erebidae with 12 species, Family Eupterotidae with 2 species, Family Geometridae with 13 species, Family Lasiocambidae with 3 species, Family Lymantriidae with 3 species, Family Noctuidae with 20 species, Family Notodontidae with 4 species, Family Pyralidae with 3 species, Family Sphingidae with 14 species and Family Uraniidae with 1 species, were identified. Shannon-Weiner’s index (H´) and Hmax of moth diversity showed a value of 3.63 and 4.48, respectively. In addition, the evenness index (J´) of moth diversity showed a value of 0.81. The exponential of Shannon entropy index (expH´) showed a value of 37.89. The dominance index (D) showed a value of 0.05. Amata sperbius and Erebus hieroglyphica showed the highest relative abundance. Creatonotos transiens showed the highest frequency of occurrence. The similarity index (Ss) revealed a high value of 0.40 between June 2022 and February 2023. A total of 9 species of moths were found to be pests. |
