Cossid moths (Lepidoptera: Cossidae) as pests of woody plants – A review

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Cossidae is a worldwide family of macro‐moths popularly known as carpenter moths due to the larval habit of boring in the wood of living plants. This review compiles current knowledge on the characteristics, diversity and bionomy of cossid moths as well as the damage they cause on woody plants.

Environmental gradients and carabid beetle diversity: Insights from wildfire and intensive site preparation in a Central European forest

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Wildfire and intensive site preparation influence beetle assemblages by shaping habitat heterogeneity, with wildfire fostering biodiversity while disc trenching leads to long‐term species declines due to habitat homogenization. Post‐fire beetle succession follows a predictable trajectory, with early successional species dominating open habitats and ...

World Heritage Status and Farmers’ Income: Evidence From a Regression Discontinuity Design in Colombia

Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The core of Colombia's coffee growing region was designated as a World Heritage (WH) site in 2011, making a distinction between “the core” of the region and “the periphery.” However, the coffee cultural heritage does not abruptly stop at the WH boundary but it exists inside and outside the boundary.

Automated delineation and morphometry of unclassified subglacial bedforms

Boreas, EarlyView.
We present an automated tool for mapping and analysing subglacial bedforms using volumetric obscurance, without classification. Tested on ArcticDEM data, the method produces bedform outlines with 75% correspondence compared to manually digitized maps.

Palaeoenvironmental changes recorded at the Velika Vrbica loess‐palaeosol sequence, Wallachian Basin, during MIS 3–MIS 1

Boreas, EarlyView.
This study presents a detailed investigation of the Velika Vrbica loess‐palaeosol sequence, situated in the Wallachian Basin of northeastern Serbia, with the aim to reconstruct palaeoenvironmental changes spanning Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 3 to 1. Using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating, low field magnetic susceptibility (χlf), and mass ...

Living on the edge: Pleistocene ice‐free refugia and collared lemming (Dicrostonyx sp.) in the North American High Arctic

Boreas, EarlyView.
Comparing the morphological variation of North American collared lemming with climatic and geographic features, as well as genetic insight and the ice sheet extend, indicate the strong geographic structure underlying the morphological diversity of the genus, that might be linked with a local Pleistocene survival in the High Arctic.

The stepwise rise of angiosperm‐dominated terrestrial ecosystems

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Angiosperms are the most diverse and abundant plant taxon today and dominate the majority of Earth's terrestrial ecosystems. They underwent rapid divergence and biogeographic expansion from the early to the middle Cretaceous. Yet, transformative ecosystem change brought about by the increased ecological dominance of angiosperms unfolded ...

Warm or bright – Temperature and light microhabitat use in insect pollinators

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
We investigated how bumblebee species foraging on a unique flower resource in a heterogeneous habitat might coexist thanks to differential use of light and temperature microhabitats. Our study suggests that temperature acts as a first filter of the local species pool and that, for a given temperature, the present species partition along a light ...

Large‐scale depth‐related seasonal distribution patterns of a benthic‐feeding sea duck in two contrasting marine systems

Ibis, EarlyView.
Moulting and overwintering Common Scoter Melanitta nigra aggregate in largely undisturbed, shallow‐water marine areas, preying upon sessile benthic organisms (mainly bivalves), which do not reproduce during this period of exploitation. Assuming even prey distribution, we predict that Common Scoters would aggregate to moult in shallowest waters with ...

Outer bounds: Forest edges emulate vertical strata as a habitat filter for butterfly assemblages

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Species filtering converged between fragmentation and vertical strata based on functional traits and phylogenetic relatedness. The understory of continuous forests guarantees high taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional diversity of butterfly assemblages.
