	Prodoxidae
		Prodoxidae is primarily a family of the Northern hemisphere, with the monobasic Prodoxoides being the only Southern hemisphere representative.
		Prodoxidae was delineated in 1982 as one of six monophyletic families in a realignment of the Incurvarioidea (Nielsen 1982).
		Mitochondrial DNA phylogeny of the Prodoxidae (Lepidoptera: Incurvarioidea) indicates a rapid ecological diversification of the yucca moths.

		Title : Systematics of the Prodoxidae and the Phylogeny of Host Associations and Mutualism Abstract : This proposal addresses one of the central problems in the study of coevolution: how interactions between species evolve during population differentiation and speciation.
		This study focuses on one of the classically cited cases of coevolution between insects and plants in which pollinators of the plants have evolved as seed parasites.
		Specifically, the study will analyze the systematics of the Prodoxidae (Lepidoptera) and the phylogeny of host associations and interactions between these moths and their host plants.

		The Incurvariidae and Prodoxidae of eastern Russia total 19 species in eight genera.
		Among the nine species not known from Europe, one species is reported from Altai only; two show a Beringian distribution; six species are associated with the southern areas of the Far East and Japan, and one is distributed from the Irkutsk region to Sakhalin and Primorye.

	Longest Diapause Among Insects
		Barnes (1952), studying wheat-blossom midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), reported the emergence of Cantarinia tritici Kirby after the larvae had been in soil up to three years, whereas larvae of Sitodiplosis mosellana G‚hin spent as many as 12 winters in the soil before emergence of the adults.
		However, Powell (1989) reported the emergence of adults of the yucca moth Prodoxus y-inversus Riley (Lepidoptera: Prodoxidae), after prepupae spent 19 years in diapause.

	Lampronia
		Lampronia has historically been phylogenetically entangled with Incurvaria (Incurvariidae), but differs in possessing the stellate signa and rounded sternum that are family synapomorphies of Prodoxidae.
		Final rearragement of Incurvarioidea into monophyletic families by Nielsen (1982) led to the placement of Lampronia as a restricted entity in a basal position within Prodoxidae.

	Davis, Donald - Biography
		He has published important references on many of these, in particular the families Acrolophidae, Carposinidae, Eriocottidae, Eriocraniidae, Opostegidae, Prodoxidae, Psychidae, and Tineidae, as well as on the new families Acanthopteroctetidae and Palaephatidae.
		Much of his research emphasizes the biology of his subjects and their immature stages.
		In 1977, he was awarded the Jordan Medal by the Lepidopterists' Society for his work on yucca moths and their allies (Prodoxidae).

	Moths (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The complex relationships between moths and their host plants may hold keys to understanding why there are so many moths.
		One noteworthy exception to this pattern is the relationship between yucca flowers and the small, white moths (of the genera Tegiticula and Parategiticula in the family Prodoxidae) that spend most of their lives associated with yucca plants.
		Yucca moths are among the few examples of “active” pollinators, animals that intentionally collect pollen from anthers and apply it to stigmatic surfaces.

		Title : Molecular Systematics and Coevolution in Yucca Moths Abstract : 9528072 PELLMYR Understanding the mechanisms that determine host utilization and specificity is central to the study of plant-animal interactions, diversification, and the process of coevolution.
		This project will explore the phylogenetic systematics of yucca moths in the genera Tegeticula Parategiticula and Prodoxus (Insecta: Lepidoptera: Prodoxidae), some of which are obligate pollinators of their host yucca plants, to test hypotheses about host specificity, reversal of mutualism, and patterns of species diversification among these moths.
		Phylogenetic hypotheses will be developed using morphometric and molecular tools.
