Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 8, Page 1157-1167, September 2025.ABSTRACT Animal‐mediated pollination is essential for the production of many specialty crops, with insects, primarily bees, serving as the predominant pollinators in many agroecosystems. However, increasing management problems with honey bees and declines in native bee populations due to various environmental stressors have highlighted the importance ...

Assessing predation pressure of Vespa velutina on local fauna through DNA metabarcoding
Journal of Zoology, Volume 326, Issue 4, Page 329-338, August 2025.This study investigates the predation pressure exerted by the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina) on native insect populations in Mallorca, using DNA metabarcoding to analyze their diet. Results reveal a diverse prey spectrum, including key insect groups such as Apidae (bees), Calliphoridae (blowflies), and Vespidae (wasps), with no ...
