Towards scalable insect monitoring: Ultra‐lightweight CNNs as on‐device triggers for insect camera traps

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 357-370, February 2026.
Abstract Camera traps, combined with AI, have emerged to achieve automated, scalable biodiversity monitoring. However, passive infrared (PIR) sensors that typically trigger camera traps are poorly suited for detecting small, fast‐moving ectotherms such as insects. Insects comprise over half of all animal species and are key components of ecosystems and

Attack density negatively affects reproductive success but not fecundity or offspring body size in a bark beetle

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 1, Page 76-81, February 2026.
Neither gallery length nor eggs per female varied significantly with attack density, suggesting P. proximus adults disregard galleries constructed by conspecifics and continue to lay eggs irrespective of attack density. Number of adult offspring per female decreased significantly as attack density increased, indicating that intraspecific competition ...

ROUTING DESIGN FOR LESS-THAN-TRUCKLOAD MOTOR CARRIERS USING ANT COLONY TECHNIQUES [PDF]

One of the most important challenges for Less-Than-Truck-Load carriers consists of determining how to consolidate flows of small shipments to minimize costs while maintaining a certain level of service.

From beginning to end: the synecology of tree‐killing bark beetles, fungi, and trees

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 314-335, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Over a century of research has revealed an amazing complexity of behaviours and physiological adaptations that allow tiny bark beetles to overcome large trees, sometimes resulting in outbreaks that kill millions of trees. Turning a tree into a home and successfully raising offspring involves constant interactions among the beetles, the tree ...

Fraternal cooperation of hierarchical cancer parallels metazoan multicellularity and eusociality

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 400-418, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Metazoan multicellularity and eusociality — both outcomes of the fraternal major transitions — have numerous features in common such as uneven distribution of group‐establishing potential. In addition to this framework, I argue herein that the group‐forming principles of metazoan multicellularity and eusociality are analogous to hierarchical ...

Reproductive Status of Boll Weevils During Season and Off‐Season of Cotton in the Cerrado of Brazil

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 2, Page 113-122, February 2026.
Cotton boll weevils were monitored continuously and counted weekly over two agricultural years in the Brazilian Cerrado. The survey resulted in a total of 94 519 adults captured in approximately similar percentages of females and males during both the growing and off‐seasons.

Come from away: Reconstructing a long‐range migratory flight of spruce budworm moths to Newfoundland, Canada Venues de loin : reconstitution d'un vol migratoire de longue distance de tordeuses des bourgeons de l'épinette vers Terre‐Neuve, au Canada

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 41-58, February 2026.
Lagrangian atmospheric models were used in conjunction with ecophysiological factors to reconstruct the path and meteorological conditions of a long‐range migration flight of spruce budworm moths to Newfoundland, Canada. Moths travelled under high winds and warm temperatures that favoured their migratory flight until encountering cooler temperatures ...

Air pollution and its multifaceted effects on insect pollinators: A review

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 1-17, February 2026.
Air pollution disrupts plant‐pollinator interactions by impairing floral signal transmission, altering foraging behaviour, and reducing pollinator fitness, flight efficiency, reproduction and survival, posing serious threats to ecological stability.
