Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

Influence of elevation, climate, snowmelt and floral abundance on body size of solitary bees

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
We measured body size in bee species from a 10‐year specimen collection from Colorado sub‐alpine meadows (2450–3450 m) and tested effects of elevation and annual snowmelt, climate and floral abundance. 2 out of 4 bee species collected across a broad elevation range showed a decline in body size with higher elevations; the other two showed no effect ...

Biogeography of Atlantic Salmon in the Cape Breton Highlands, Canada

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) populations have experienced significant declines in recent decades. In Canada, conservation efforts are divided into 16 designatable units (DUs) to address unique regional challenges among genetically distinct populations.

Seasonality and plasticity in the use of native and introduced plant resources by a large forest parrot

Ibis, EarlyView.
Human‐induced environmental change is reshaping plant communities, requiring native animals to adapt their foraging behaviour to track and exploit novel food resources. Trees such as pines (Pinus spp.) introduced for plantation forestry outside of their native ranges often become naturalized.
