Paving the Way for Rearing Closterocerus coffeellae: Effect of Adult Food Source and Oviposition Behavior in Leucoptera coffeella

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 11, Page 1226-1235, November 2025.
This study evaluated food sources for adult Closterocerus coffeellae survival and oviposition behavior. Adults were fed honey (10%), Hibiscus nectar, an artificial diet, or received no food. Male survival was higher on the artificial diet, whereas honey (10%) increased female survival.

Side effects of pesticides used in organic and conventional tomato crops on Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris, a parasitoid of Tuta absoluta

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 10, Page 6445-6454, October 2025.
This study reveals strong variability in the effects of eight tomato integrated pest management‐compatible pesticides on Dolichogenidea gelechiidivoris, identifying harmful compounds such as spinosad and more selective ones such as sulfur and spiromesifen, depending on the exposure route.

Long‐term population dynamics of western tent caterpillars: History, trends and causes of cycles

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 10, Page 1922-1934, October 2025.
The length and in‐depth nature of this population study make it unique. It represents perhaps the most extensive monitoring of viral infection in a wild insect population. We have used laboratory and field experiments to test many hypotheses about mechanisms that potentially impact the dynamics of this cyclic species.

Transgenerational effects increase the vulnerability of a host–parasitoid system to rising temperatures

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 10, Page 2089-2102, October 2025.
Insect thermal performance can be modulated by temperatures experienced by preceding generations, but it is unclear how these effects may scale up to communities. Using an experimental Drosophila–parasitoid system and simulations, transgenerational effects affecting both trophic levels are shown to have emergent impacts on persistence under rising ...
