Quantifying Species‐ and Community‐Level Predation by Carabids on Pests and Beneficials in Wheat and Beet Fields

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Using a model that translates qualitative prey detection data (presence/absence in predator gut contents) into quantitative predation rates, we estimate species‐specific diets of nine carabid species across three cropping contexts (wheat, sugar beet, and fodder beet) for five prey types.

Where water meets rock: Ecological niches and diversity hotspots of hygropetric beetles in the Neotropics

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.

Flooding affects fluctuating asymmetry but not growth of a riparian orbweaving spider

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
In a mesocosm experiment we assessed the impact of flood on aquatic insect emergence and on spider development using geometric morphometric analysis of fluctuating asymmetry. We observed 45% higher emergence in flooded mesocosm throughout the season. Spiders did not grow bigger but exhibited ~15% lower fluctuating asymmetry than in controls.

An experimental examination of dispersal decisions made by flight‐capable heteropteran insects in urban stormwater pond conditions

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Salty conditions in urban stormwater ponds can influence dispersal timing in species‐specific ways for actively dispersing aquatic heteropteran insects. Assaying multiple aspects of dispersal propensity, Hesperocorixa obliqua emigrated earlier in stormwater pond conditions while overall probabilities remained unchanged; Notonecta undulata emigration ...

Nest boxes as microhabitats supporting diverse arthropod communities

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Diverse Micro‐Habitats: Nest boxes supported 3634 arthropods from 82 families, highlighting their significant conservation value as artificial micro‐habitats for diverse invertebrate communities beyond their primary use for birds. Occupancy Boosts Diversity: Occupied nests exhibited significantly higher arthropod richness, abundance and Shannon ...
