Influence of parasitoid Paravilla sp. (Diptera, Bombyliidae) on the development of larvae of Myrmeleon brasiliensis (Návas, 1914) (Neuroptera, Myrmeleontidae)

open access: yesPapéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2018
Parasitoids manipulate the host metabolism for their own benefit by influencing its development and the direct or indirect result of it is the host death. This study aimed to observe the influence of parasitoidism of Paravilla sp.

The pollination ecology and mouthpart morphology of a pollen‐feeding fly Incurviseta cf. maculifrons (Diptera: Lauxaniidae) in the Australian Alpine

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 214-225, June 2026.
The Lauxaniid fly Incurviseta cf. maculifrons (Malloch, 1925) is a locally abundant but poorly understood flower visitor in the Australian Alpine. We describe the flower visitation, pollen transport, pollen diet and mouthpart morphology of I. cf. maculifrons using field observations, pollen analyses and scanning electron microscopy. I. cf.

Network rewiring and species turnover stabilize plant–pollinator interactions across habitats and seasons in dry forest

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Mutualistic interactions between plants and pollinators are fundamental to biodiversity maintenance and ecosystem resilience, yet their dynamics across space and time in tropical dry forests have not been widely examined. We analyzed plant–pollinator networks across seasons and habitat types in the highly seasonal and fragmented dry forest of ...

The value of regeneration for insect fauna associated with leaf litter in the Brazilian savanna: A comparative study of biomass and trophic structure

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 3, Page 875-888, May 2026.
This study demonstrates the ecological value of natural regeneration in the Brazilian Cerrado by analysing the biomass, richness and trophic structure of leaf litter insects across pasture (P), regenerating (R) and native (N) areas. We found that R areas supported insect communities more similar to N habitats than to Ps, with higher richness, greater ...

Towards transparent and replicable flower selection in agricultural flower strips

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Flower strips are increasingly employed as ecologically sustainable methods for attracting beneficial insects to agricultural landscapes. Since flowers differ substantially in an array of characteristics including morphology, nutritional content, and phenology, selecting “the right flowers for the right job” requires the designer to make ...
