We compute the degree of Hurwitz-Hodge classes $λ_1^e$ on one dimensional moduli spaces of cyclic admissible covers of the projective line. We also compute the degree of the the first Chern class of the Hodge bundle $λ_1$ for all one dimensional moduli spaces. In higher dimension, we express the divisor class $λ_1$ as a linear combination of $ψ$ classes and boundary strata.
We compute an explicit formula for the first Chern class of the Hodge Bundle over the space of admissible cyclic $\mathbb{Z}/3\mathbb{Z}$ covers of $n$-pointed rational stable curves as a linear combination of boundary strata. We then apply this formula to give a recursive formula for calculating certain Hodge integrals containing $λ_1$. We also consider covers with a ${\mathbb{Z}}/{2\mathbb{Z}}$ action for which we compute $λ_2$ as a linear combination of codimension two boundary strata.
