Urban bats show dietary flexibility in aquatic arthropod consumption at urban and rural waterbodies
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urban waterbodies are critical for biodiversity and provide feeding grounds for insectivorous bats. Yet, how urbanisation affects bats' food choices at urban waterbodies and the role of emergent aquatic arthropods remain poorly understood. We compared the diet of three urban bat species – Vespadelus vulturnus, Chalinolobus gouldii,and Myotis macropus –

Control of Black Cutworm Larvae on a Bentgrass Fairway, 1996 [PDF]
Arthropod Management Tests, 1997 Abstract The study was conducted on a golf course fairwa; of Columbia Hills Country Club at Columbia Station in Lorain Co., OH. Insecticides were applied the evening of 30 Jul to plots 6 X 20 ft (1.8 x 6.1 m arranged in a RCB replicated four times. Treatments were applied with a CO2 sprayer and Teejet™ XR8006VS nozzles at 29 psi (2.04 kg/

Interactions between prairie dogs and arthropods in grassland ecosystems: a review and research gaps
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Prairie dogs (Cynomys spp.) are an important component of grassland ecosystems of North America where they can alter vegetation composition/structure and physical attributes of grassland habitats through their feeding and burrowing behavior. Impacts of prairie dog presence on many wildlife and plant taxa have been widely studied but research on prairie

Larval Biology of Black Cutworm Agrotis ipsilon on Maize in Kashmir
, 2021 In Kashmir valley, Agrotis ipsilon is a destructive pest on maize, potato, vegetable crops, flowers and fruit seedlings, reducing the plant stand and biological yields (Reshi, 1967). The extent of damage due to black cutworm in maize is 30-40 percent and

The dual crisis: Climate change simultaneously drives pollinator decline and pest outbreaks
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.Climate change acts as an asymmetric ecological filter, favouring r‐selected pest traits (rapid reproduction, generalism) while disadvantaging K‐selected pollinators. For every 1°C of warming, bee species richness declines ~25% since the 1990s, while pest‐induced crop losses increase by 10%–25%. A network‐centric approach integrating climate‐responsive

Toxicity, residue and risk assessment of tetraniliprole in soil-earthworm microcosms
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021 Maize seed treatment with chemicals to control underground pests is a common agricultural practice, but inappropriate use of insecticides poses a considerable threat to plant development and soil nontarget organisms.

Assessing Predator Activity on Clay Models in Response to Common Insecticides in Turfgrass
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Insecticides exhibited clear but time‐dependent effects on predatory activity, as reflected by impression types and density on clay models in turfgrass. Certain insecticides (bifenthrin, and in some cases acephate + imidacloprid, imidacloprid, chlorantraniliprole, and tetraniliprole) reduced total impressions shortly after application and again later ...
