13.30 introduction O.N., introduction of the student by supervisor Vojtěch Novotný
presentation 13.40-14.10, short evaluation by VN
14.14.GB: evaluation including defense of classical insect collections; then questions (?) and answers (=):
? molecular errors = need to increase sequencing deapth; ? horseshoe shape of elevational response = horshoe shape typical for PCA, can be avoided by DCA; ? light trapping specific for families, how to correct? = no baited traps because of logistics; ? what says abundance ? = rather activity pattern, not simple presence, light still useful for comparison when everything else is same. ? what are the new most interesting questions from the thesis? = how affected are less mobile species, changes of moth community with climate change; = similar metabarcoding would be important at Mt. Kinabalu.
14.32: LB: - experience from PNG - mixture of two faunas, = favourite for metabarcoding only after documented specimens are saved in collections, OTU at 2% distance of COI are not species, - using 1/2 COI is not appropriate for delimitation of species, - nice data, big data and analysis, ? molecular species concept ? = barcoding rely on existing reference libraries.
14.53: members of committee - JS ? - fragmentation of forest in PNG, is road important for moths? = heavy logging between villages, moth may still find food source;
ZF ? habitat associations of moths = only 4 species in disturbed habitat, other s prefer pristine
PM ? Janzen hypothesis supported in mountains? = no answer;
audience: Martin Volf: ? in 1st chapter no overdispersion, how intense competition = abundance of food sources important;
Scott Miller - comment that Ibalim made good estimation of species, BINs are useful for Lepidoptera!
GB agree that databases make Lepidoptera useful for barcoding.
