Three‐lips is the sole piscivorous cyprinid in Japan, which pursues lures aggressively. This study surveyed the persistent decline of the species over thirteen years. This is a mature male individual caught in 2016. ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems are increasingly recognised as highly susceptible to anthropogenic disturbances.

We used a before‐during‐after study to evaluate rock rip‐rap at wetland crossings as a mitigation strategy to deter female turtles from nesting in unsafe roadside habitats. Although females did not nest in the rip‐rap, they continued to nest in roadside habitat, indicating the strategy was unsuccessful and required further research.

What are the vector species of the Oropouche virus?
Here, we review the timeline of Oropouche virus (OROV) detection in various hematophagous Diptera, from 1955 to date, including mosquitoes and midges. All vector competence experiments also are described. The results suggest that Culicoides are the primary vectors.

Euphorbia segetalis is a promising attractant insectary plant for Aphelinus mali. Meanwhile, Vicia faba and Vicia sativa are a promising nectar resource to sustain the parasitoid in early spring when the population of Eriosoma lanigerum is low, and honeydew is scarce.

ABSTRACT Oak wilt, caused by Bretziella fagacearum, is a destructive vascular disease of oaks in North America, yet fine‐scale spatial localisation of the pathogen in host tissues and on insect vectors remains poorly characterised. In this study, we developed and validated a species‐specific fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) probe targeting the
