Are honey bees altering wild plant–bee interactions in reconstructed native habitats? An investigation of summer season effects in row‐crop agroecosystems with prairie strips

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
We investigated the compatibility of beekeeping with pollinator conservation in ‘prairie strips’ a conservation practice integrating native prairie habitat into agricultural environments. At prairie strip sites with and without a honey bee apiary, we analysed plant–bee interactions and bumble bee body conditions to determine the effect of apiaries on ...

Salty suitors: High larval sodium intake reduces adult lifespan and influences reproductive behaviour in a lepidopteran herbivore

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Low‐sodium females took significantly longer to start mating than high‐sodium females, but no pairings differed in the duration of copulation. Reproductive outputs, measured by number of clutches, hatching young, adult offspring and pupation time, did not differ across parental sodium pairings.

Understanding the impacts of intensity and harvest frequency on Tithonia diversifolia for use in tropical silvopastoral systems

Grassland Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Tithonia diversifolia (Hemsl.) A. Gray has significant potential as a forage source in silvopastoral systems, particularly in tropical conditions. However, its intensity and frequency management differ from those commonly applied to grasses. This study aims to evaluate T. diversifolia under two harvest intensities (30 and 40 cm stubble height)

Beyond Deception: What Else Do Flower Wasps (Hymenoptera: Thynnidae: Thynninae) Do in Flowers Worldwide?

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wasps, although less recognised as good pollinators, also feed on nectar and pollinate flowers. Specialised pollination systems, such as orchids that mimic the pheromones of female wasps to attract males, are complex and specific. This interaction occurs with some Thyninnae wasps that also visit flowers to obtain nectar and perform other ...

Shedding Light on Shining Leaf Chafers: Rutelinae MacLeay, 1819 (Coleoptera, Scarabaeoidea, Scarabaeidae) as a Neglected Group of Pollinators

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interactions between insects and angiosperms date back to millions of years ago. Among the groups of pollinating animals, it is estimated that insects are responsible for pollinating more than 70% of angiosperms. Coleoptera is one of the most studied insect groups for pollination.
