Moth traps shine a light on nocturnal parasitoid wasps: Snapshot assessment of UK diversity and distributions

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Biological datasets are biased towards well‐known, charismatic taxa, meaning that our understanding of biodiversity is incomplete. Parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera) are an ecologically important, yet often overlooked group of insects. We show that 5 months of sampling for parasitoid ‘bycatch’ at moth light traps operated by citizen scientists provides ...

Non‐Destructive Analysis of Phenolic and Flavonoid Contents in Medicinal Plant Powders Using Hyperspectral Imaging and Variable Selection

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 2, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Phenolic and flavonoid contents in medicinal plants are essential to their growth and development and provide numerous health benefits, yet their quantification using traditional wet chemistry is labor‐intensive and time‐consuming. This study utilized the combination of two benchtop hyperspectral imaging (HSI) systems, namely short‐wave ...
