Restoration tools and strategies for afforested Mediterranean coastal grasslands: is eucalypt removal alone enough to kickstart ecosystem recovery?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Afforestation with non‐native trees has profoundly altered coastal dune grasslands worldwide, creating persistent ecological legacies that constrain ecosystem recovery. Objectives We evaluated the cost‐effectiveness of two restoration approaches, distinguished by their respective demands for resource investment: Moderately ...

Citizen Science Tick Observations Serve as an Early Warning System for Tick‐Borne Diseases

open access: yesZoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 234-243, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Tick observation data collected through citizen science is increasingly utilised to map tick‐borne infection risk areas indirectly, that is, based on the rate of tick encounters or occurrence of ticks. However, direct associations between tick observations and Lyme borreliosis (LB) cases have received little attention.

Monitoring the Acaricide Resistance Status and Baseline Susceptibility of Field‐Collected Populations of Tetranychus urticae Koch in Korea

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 121, Issue 4, April 2026.
A nationwide survey of Tetranychus urticae from Korean strawberry greenhouses revealed strong regional variation in acaricide susceptibility. Localized resistance to abamectin, chlorfenapyr, and acequinocyl highlights the need for region‐specific, MoA‐based resistance management strategies. ABSTRACT The two‐spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch,

A modified method for clearing, staining and mounting plant-inhabiting mites

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2008
A modified method for clearing, staining and mounting plant-inhabiting mites is proposed. With this method, all mites can be cleared with a single agent and mounted in a single medium.

Predation Under Heat Stress: The Significance of Body Size to the Outcome of an Acarine Predator–Prey Interaction

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
(A) The predator Phytoseiulus persimilis and its prey Tetranychus urticae were reared under mild or extreme heat waves from egg to adulthood, which resulted in asymmetrical thermal shifts of adult body sizes in favour of prey under extreme heat waves. (B) Single couples of adult predators and prey, reared under mild heat waves interacted at mild heat ...
