Where the wild rose blooms: A phenology of grounded writing

open access: yesAnthropology and Humanism, Volume 51, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract This flash tip reflects on a phenology of grounded writing, emerging through reciprocal attention and embodied observation across four seasons. Drawing on land‐based methodologies and creative ethnography, I offer reflections for scholars seeking to write otherwise through the practice of standing in solidarity with two feet in one place.

The use of edible insects in human food

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 10, Page 5775-5787, 15 August 2026.
Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...

An economic model of the limits to foraging range in central place foragers with numerical solutions for bumblebees

open access: yes, 2000
1. A model is described that evaluates the maximum economic foraging range in central place foragers by using optimality criteria to discriminate between foraging sites at different distances from the forager's central place. 2.

Identity and function of scent marks deposited by foraging bumblebees

open access: yes, 2000
Foraging bumblebees can detect scents left on flowers by previous bumblebee visitors and hence avoid flowers that have been depleted of nectar. Tarsal secretions are probably responsible for this repellent effect.

Nectar Robbery by Native and Invasive Bumblebees Reduces Floral Rewards but Not Seed Production in Desfontainia fulgens

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
We evaluated nectar robbery by native and invasive bumblebees in the hummingbird‐pollinated shrub Desfontainia fulgens in southern Chile. Nectar robbery strongly reduced nectar standing crop and altered floral visitation patterns, but these proximate effects did not translate into reduced seed production under natural pollination conditions.

Keeping track of biodiversity in agricultural landscapes: New roles for farmers and naturalists in pollinator monitoring

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2410-2423, July 2026.
Abstract The decline in biodiversity, particularly in agricultural landscapes, is a pressing global challenge. Monitoring is vital to assess biodiversity trends and conservation effectiveness, yet farmland remains underinvestigated. Engaging farmers and encouraging naturalists to take on new roles could help expand monitoring efforts and strengthen ...
