Pollinator communities as indicators of ecological change in developing woodlands

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January/March 2026.
A shift in the pollinator community occurs as planted woodlands develop. Bees respond to local habitat change, while hoverflies respond to the broader landscape. The choice of metrics and sampling methods can shape ecological interpretations. Pollinators, especially bees, are sensitive, policy‐relevant indicators for tracking early biodiversity change ...

Living IoT: A Flying Wireless Platform on Live Insects

open access: yes, 2018
Sensor networks with devices capable of moving could enable applications ranging from precision irrigation to environmental sensing. Using mechanical drones to move sensors, however, severely limits operation time since flight time is limited by the ...

A mosaic of colors: The influence of biotic and abiotic factors shaping flower color diversity across a tropical mountain ecosystem

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Premise Flower color diversity within communities is shaped by biotic and abiotic factors. Pollinators often prefer specific colors, and floral pigments also help protect against abiotic factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, precipitation, and temperature.

A New Classification Framework to Understand Evolutionary Transitions in Individuality

open access: yesBioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2026.
Classifying biological entities based on whether and how the two fundamental aspects physiological and evolutionary components are represented yields six types of structural organization. The resulting framework allows to compare different forms of organization, and, in this way, provides insight into the evolutionary processes giving rise to these ...

Wild Bumblebee (Bombus) Diversity and Nosema (Microsporidia: Nosematidae) Infection Levels Associated with Lowbush Blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) Production and Commercial Bumblebee Pollinators

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
The primary objective was to determine if the prevalence of Nosema bombi infection is higher for wild bumblebees (Bombus spp.) caught in lowbush blueberry growing areas with a history of commercial bumblebee use than for bumblebees caught in areas ...

Different Flowering Strategies Ensure Reproductive Success in Two Coexisting Self‐Incompatible Orchids

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study compares the reproductive strategies of two self‐incompatible orchids, Pholidota articulata (mass‐flowering) and Coelogyne prolifera (steady‐state flowering). Despite differences in pollinator visitation and pollinia transfer efficiency—higher in P. articulata—both species achieved similar natural fruit set rates over 3 years.
