Fluctuating asymmetry in spider‐hunting wasps as a possible indicator of stress in Brazilian Atlantic Forest landscapes Assimetria flutuante em vespas caçadoras de aranhas como possível indicador de estresse em paisagens da Mata Atlântica brasileira

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Agricultural cover was positively associated with fluctuating asymmetry in Trypoxylon opacum, suggesting a possible increase in developmental instability in intensively managed landscapes. Wing size was positively related to forest cover and negatively related to agricultural cover, indicating that forested landscapes may promote larger body size ...

Using citizen science as a research prioritization tool to detect co‐occurrences of the invasive species Harmonia axyridis

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We studied co‐occurrences and potential novel interactions between the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis and local biota (plants, arthropods and fungi) across Argentina using citizen science records. We detected co‐occurrences (mainly Asteracea and Aphididae) and previously unreported interactions (predation, parasitism, interspecific mating and ...

Hidden lineages in the African Sky Islands: A taxonomic reevaluation of Afrocarduus (Compositae)

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Species delimitation is crucial for biodiversity studies. Using Hyb‐Seq and phylogenomics, we reassessed Afrocarduus, endemic to Afromontane and Afroalpine regions, uncovering 16 evolutionary lineages (2.3 Mya). Morphological data support their distinctiveness, with acaulescence evolving independently twice. The traditionally broad A.
