Wheat in North America harbours a diverse insect community (565 morphospecies were identified in this study), and pests represented <7% of specimens collected. Regenerative wheat management promoted insect diversity without increasing pest populations.

Estimating seasonal survival of migratory birds using continuous‐time capture–recapture models
Abstract Understanding the population dynamics of migratory species requires consideration of their entire annual cycle. A key requirement is the decomposition of annual survival into seasonal periods. While there is increasing evidence that migrations are the most dangerous phase of the annual cycle, temporal variation in seasonal survival and its ...

Rensch's rule is not verified in melanopline grasshoppers (Acrididae) [PDF]
Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) is almost universal in animals. Rensch’s rule proposes that SSD increases with increasing average body size in taxa where males are larger than females (male- biased SSD; MBSSD) and decreases when females are larger (female-biased SSD; FBSSD).

Potentially toxic metal(loid)s (PTMs) bioaccumulated across a plant‐herbivore‐predator food chain. Irrespective of soil concentrations, female crickets actively selected PTM‐enriched leaves, while predatory mantids showed no developmental impairment. Trophic transfer of PTMs was rather influenced more by a function of intrinsic species traits than by ...

The influence of cutting height on arthropods in farm grassland
Mowing at a cutting height of 13 cm slightly reduced the immediate negative impact of mowing compared to mowing at a height of 7 cm. Medium‐term effects overrode this benefit: the number of vegetation‐dwelling arthropods remained strongly reduced two and four weeks after mowing, regardless of the cutting height.

Ecology and evolution of pyrazines in insects
ABSTRACT Chemical communication is the oldest and most widespread form of signalling among and within organisms. Among the many compounds involved in such communication, pyrazines – nitrogen‐containing heterocyclic molecules – are especially intriguing due to their widespread occurrence across the tree of life, from bacteria and fungi to insects and ...
