Observation identifies Moodna bisinuella in field corn, highlighting gaps in larval ecology and control measures.
Observation of Moodna bisinuella Hampson in Mississippi was based on specimens collected near Greenville (Washington Co.), Mississippi during August 2008. Larvae were collected from ears of field corn, Zea mays L., reared to adults, and identified by using characters observed from the dissection of the male genitalia. Little information is available to describe larval ecology, injury to field corn, available control measures, or distribution across Mississippi.
