Phylogenomics Resolves the Evolution of Sternorrhyncha (Insecta: Hemiptera)
Phylogeny of Sternorrhyncha based on Matrix2 under PMSF (LG+C60+F+R) model. ABSTRACT Sternorrhyncha, one of the four major suborders of Hemiptera, represents a phytophagous insect clade comprising nearly 18,000 described species. While recent phylogenomic studies have made significant efforts to elucidate the internal phylogenetic relationships within ...

Death by a Thousand Ants: Predation on Grasshoppers by Invasive Ants in a Grassland
Invasive ants are known to disrupt litter‐dwelling arthropod communities, but their impacts on large, mobile aboveground insects are less clear. We document predation by the invasive tawny crazy ant (Nylanderia fulva) on adult grasshoppers in a coastal tallgrass prairie, where nearly half of tethered individuals were killed within 24 h, and stable ...

Pond frog as a predator of hornet workers: High tolerance to venomous stings
Abstract Some animals use stingers to repel attackers, and some predators have evolved tolerance to such stings, enabling them to consume venomous prey. For example, social wasps, such as hornets, use modified ovipositors as venomous stingers to inject venom, which can cause intense pain in humans.

Resist!: Sustaining forest carbon sequestration and wood production after insect disturbance
Disturbances from insect pests threaten ecologically and economically important goods and services supplied by forests, including wood production and carbon sequestration. We highlight the factors that influence these services’ resistance, a term quantifying the initial response to disturbance.
