Biogeography of Bursaphelenchus Species Driven by Climate, Vectors and Hosts: Implications for Forest Pathology Under Climate Change

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Wood‐inhabiting nematodes of the genus Bursaphelenchus are a group with significant ecological and economic impacts on global forest ecosystems. This review aims to update current knowledge on their spatial distribution, host‐vector associations and the factors driving species expansion under the framework of climate change.

A DNA‐based phylogeny confirms the occurrence of Pseudips mexicanus (Hopkins, 1906) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae: Ipini) in Ireland

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, Volume 56, Issue 2, Page 294-297, August 2026.
Abstract Specimens of an unknown Ipini were trapped during 2023–2024 exotic forest pest surveys in County Clare, Ireland. This non‐native species was provisionally identified as Pseudips mexicanus (Hopkins, 1906) with morphological identification keys. However, damaged specimens could not be confidently identified to the species level.

Catalytic Hydropyrolysis of Beetle Killed Trees for the Production of Transportation Biofuels

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Catalytic hydropyrolysis of beetle‐killed pine, ash, and redbay demonstrated that temperature, catalyst loading, and catalyst acidity strongly influence hydrocarbon yields, while response surface methodology (RSM) identified optimal operating conditions for maximizing overall product yield.

Spatial Scale Modulates the Effect of Habitat Amount on Diversity Patterns of Arachnid Assemblages Across Different Brazilian Ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We evaluated how native vegetation cover influences the diversity of arachnid assemblages across multiple spatial scales in major Brazilian ecosystems. Location Brazil (Amazon and Atlantic rainforests, Cerrado savanna and Caatinga dry forest). Taxon Arachnida (Opiliones, Pseudoscorpiones and Scorpiones). Methods We sampled arachnids at 120

Entomoparasitic nematodes Sychnotylenchus sp. (Anguinidae) on the four-eyed fir bark beetle Polygraphus proximus: effects on the host's immunity and its susceptibility to Beauveria bassiana

open access: yesInvertebrate Survival Journal, 2017
This study for the first time demonstrated evidence of immunosuppressive influence of the entomoparasitic nematode Sychnotylenchus sp. (Anguinidae) on the four-eyed fir bark beetle Polygraphus proximus.

Long‐Term Biodiversity–Stability Relationship in Temperate Mountain Forests

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Theories on ecological stability lack the long‐term observational data necessary to comprehend the dynamics of durable and complex ecosystems like forests; consequently, the influence of biodiversity on ecosystem stability remains predominantly unexplained.

Analysing the Ecological Requirements of the Australian Tortoise Beetle Trachymela sloanei (Blackburn, 1897) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) to Determine the Prospects for Its Invasion Process

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 955-967, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive species pose a serious threat to biodiversity and result in significant economic costs. Although much effort is devoted to understanding invasive processes, some aspects are poorly understood, such as the early stages of invasions and the reasons for invasion failure.

A Highly Expressed Odorant Receptor Detects the Aggregation Pheromone Rhynchophorol in the Invasive American Palm Weevil

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 15, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Communication via aggregation pheromones is responsible for the behavioural and ecological characteristics of many species of weevils (Coleoptera). In insects, pheromones are detected by specialized odorant receptors (ORs), called pheromone receptors (PRs), which are usually highly expressed in olfactory sensory neurons localized in the ...
