A ocorrência e algumas notas bioecológicas sobre a traça-do-trevo, Dicestra trifolii (Hufnagel, 1766) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae), da ilha de São Miguel (Açores), são discutidas. A dinâmica de voo dos adultos foi observada na localidade da Relva, entre Janeiro de 1992 e Maio de 1993, usando uma armadilha sexual e outra luminosa. D. trifolii só foi capturada entre meados de Março e fins de Setembro, sendo mais abundante nos meses de Verão. Também foi elaborada uma lista das plantas hospedeiras de D. trifolii.
ABSTRACT: The occurrence and biology of the nutmeg moth, Dicestra trifolii (Hufnagel, 1766) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae), from the São Miguel island (Azores) are discussed. The adult flight periods of this species were observed between January of 1992 and May of 1993, at Relva locality, using pheromone and Pennsylvania blacklight traps. D. trifolii was only captured from mid-March to the end of September, and was more abundant during summer months. A survey of the host plants of D. trifolii was also undertaken.
