TL;DR:
The isotope data on moths collected in Texas early in the season indicate that the majority of overwintering H. zea do not originate from cotton-feeding larvae and may be migrants from Mexico, and support other research indicating that many late-season H.Zea moths captured in Louisiana and Texas are migrants whose larvae developed on corn in more northern locations.
