Abstract

The species composition of lepidopteran insects feeding on Japanese pear blossoms was investigated in Kyotango City, Kyoto Prefecture, from late March to late April in 2017. Pasiphila rectangulata (Linnaeus), Archips nigricaudanus (Walsingham), and Ptycholoma lecheana circumclusana (Christoph) were found from early to mid-April. It was reported for the first time that A. nigricaudanus feeds on the blossoms. Pa. rectangulata was predominant of the three species.
