Love, Class‐Crossing Courtship, and the Reading of English Novels in Late Eighteenth‐Century Sweden

Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how novel reading influenced the courtship practices of Pehr Stenberg, a peasant who became a clergyman. Stenberg wrote a detailed account of his life in which his courtships of high‐born women are described in detail. These courtships took place during a transformative time when the ideal that marriage should be based on

evsBat: An automated toolkit for tracking and quantifying rapid movement of nocturnal animals using event cameras

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Capturing the high‐speed behaviour of nocturnal animals remains technically challenging because conventional video systems require intense illumination that disrupts natural activity. Event‐based vision sensors (EVS) overcome this constraint, yet their ecological uptake has been slow owing to a lack of software capable of analysing the sparse,

High‐throughput information extraction of printed specimen labels from large‐scale digitization of entomological collections using a semi‐automated pipeline

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Natural history museums curate billions of insect specimens, representing an unparalleled record of biodiversity. Although large‐scale digitization has expanded access to specimen images, extracting label metadata remains a major bottleneck, typically requiring time‐intensive manual transcription.

Polarization vision and the physiological basis for trichromatic vision in Philaenus spumarius: Understanding host‐seeking behaviour in insect vectors for Xylella fastidiosa control

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
We investigated the role of vision in host‐seeking behaviour by Philaenus spumarius, the main European vector of Xylella fastidiosa, through an integrated anatomical, optical, physiological, and behavioural study. Our data highlight that the spittlebug uses visual cues, including polarized light, which may aid in detecting the polarized reflections ...

Anholocyclic overwintering of Myzus persicae: Host plant selection as a driver for aphid performance and survival

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
The green peach aphid, Myzus persicae, is the main virus vector in sugar beet. We examine its performance on potential winter hosts as well as the host selection and overwintering success of anholicyclic aphids in order to improve forecasting models for virus outbreaks through targeted monitoring of suitable winter hosts. Abstract Virus yellows (VY) is
