A comparison of two common flight interception traps to survey tropical arthropods

ZooKeys, 2012
Tropical forests are predicted to harbor most of the insect diversity on earth, but few studies have been conducted to characterize insect communities in tropical forests.

No evidence for missed mutualists in an invasive plant with the buzz pollination syndrome

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The missed mutualist hypothesis predicts that the absence of mutualistic partners poses a barrier to introduced species becoming invasive. Yet, some alien plants thrive despite potential dependence on certain pollinators. For example, buzz‐pollinated plants typically have specialist floral morphologies and benefit from buzz pollinator behavior

Vegetation type mediates how urbanization reshapes the structure, function, and spatial variation of soil food webs

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 956-968, April 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Urbanization represents one of the major anthropogenic alterations of the Earth's surface, with significant impacts on biodiversity and its functions. Soil animals are essential components of biodiversity, and their trophic interactions play integral roles in the ...

Insertional mutagenesis screening identifies the zinc finger homeodomain 2 (zfh2) gene as a novel factor required for embryonic leg development in Tribolium castaneum [PDF]

, 2009
The genetic control of leg development is well characterized in the fly Drosophila melanogaster. These control mechanisms, however, must differ to some degree between different insect species to account for the morphological diversity of thoracic legs in

Anuran Assemblage Structure in the Serra Da Capivara National Park, Piauí State, North‐Eastern Brazil

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological communities consist of species that coexist and interact with each other and the environment over the same spatial and temporal scales. How species use the available resources can shape community structure, particularly in mechanisms that favour species coexistence, such as niche partitioning. This study investigated the spatial and

Height and phytotelm size affect the invertebrate communities of epiphytic bromeliads in the Amazon rainforest

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 221-234, April 2026.
The height at which epiphytic bromeliads are found affects the invertebrate community composition within them. The size of epiphytic bromeliads is positively correlated with species richness of both aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. Whether bromeliads were found in primary or secondary forest did not have a significant effect on the community of ...

Community Ecology of Soil Fauna Under Periodically Flooded Forest and Anthropic Fields

Floresta e Ambiente, 2020
The study evaluated the ecology of soil invertebrate faunal communities in periodically flooded forest (CF) fragments and anthropic fields (AF) in the Atlantic Forest. The sampling occurred in the rainy and dry seasons using pitfall traps.
