Using total abundance as a proxy for wild bee species richness: A practical tool for non‐experts

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 3065-3077, November 2025.
The use of a simple but effective proxy could be an important starting point for the expansion of wild bee monitoring initiatives at the regional scale, particularly given the growing involvement of non‐specialists. We provided here a simple implementation framework to use this proxy in rapid biodiversity assessments, such as the evaluation of payment ...

Floral strips increase the abundance and spillover of beneficial insects in rotational crop fields

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 653-670, November 2025.
Abstract Insects provide many ecological functions that support agricultural production, but beneficial insect populations are often lower in areas of intensive agriculture. Agronomic practices that support beneficial insect populations are important for sustainable crop production.

Comparison of Flight Periods of Solitary and Primitively Eusocial Bees in Urban Environments and Nature Conservation Areas: a Preliminary Report

Zoodiversity
Solitary and primitively eusocial bees, an important group of pollinators, have declined in the past few decades. In view of the recent focus on safeguarding pollinating insects, it is vital to understand the basic ecology of species for their ...

Pollen exploitation by non‐native, feral honey bees: Potential consequences for interspecific competition

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1109-1119, November 2025.
In Southern California, a global hotspot of bee biodiversity, predominantly feral populations of the exotic western honey bee constitute an estimated 90% of individual bees and 98% of bee biomass. Honey bee foragers remove 80% of total pollen during the first day flowers open on three common native species, with their first two visits removing over 60%

Spatial Interpolation in Applied Insect Ecology: A Review, Including Guidelines and Datasets for Practical Use

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 9, Page 1319-1334, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Spatial interpolation represents a fundamental approach in applied insect ecology, offering insight into species distributions and supporting biodiversity analysis, pest management and disease vector mapping. Insects—including important pollinators—face escalating threats due to habitat loss, climate change and anthropogenic pressures. As data‐

Termite Vibration Sensing: The Chordotonal Organs and Their Appendages

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study investigates how termites use their legs and antennae as vibration‐sensitive sensory organs, comparing them to ants, their eusocial predators. Termite appendages are morphologically adapted to detect lower‐frequency, wood‐borne vibrations, enhancing their foraging and predator avoidance abilities. These findings suggest that termite legs may
