Abstract
Pollen analysis were carried out on moths [Agrotis (Scotia) ipsilon] c ollected on two sites in south-east France, one near the Mediterranean sea (Camargue), the other in the Alps, at 2000 m altitude. A spring m igration from east and south-east (Corsica and the French Riviera) was found at the Camargue site, while a possible fall migration from the North (Lyon area) appeared in the Alps. In addition, the analyses indi cate that moths visit certain nectariferous floral sources.
