ABSTRACT The study of myrmecophilous spider beetles of Australia has led to the discovery of six new species of Diplocotes, Westwood, 1869, described herein. Three species—Diplocotes meentheenaensis sp. nov., Diplocotes septenantennalis sp. nov. and Diplocotes pilbaraensis sp. nov.—are recorded from the Pilbara region of northwestern Australia.

Evaluating the efficacy of tagging adhesives for insect tracking
Two‐part epoxy resin delivered the strongest RFID tag adhesion on carabid beetles, exceeding polyvinyl acetate, cosmetic latex and cyanoacrylate adhesives. Adhesive performance was consistent across Harpalus, Leistus and Poecilus; species effects were non‐significant, supporting a broadly applicable protocol for carabid RFID tagging studies.

Using a model that translates qualitative prey detection data (presence/absence in predator gut contents) into quantitative predation rates, we estimate species‐specific diets of nine carabid species across three cropping contexts (wheat, sugar beet, and fodder beet) for five prey types.

Crop diversification is often promoted to enhance biological pest control in agricultural landscapes, but its effects remain context‐dependent. Using data from 742 landscapes across 13 countries, we found that crop diversification did not increase overall natural enemy abundance or biological control potential, but mainly increased both specialist ...

Banksia attenuata (Proteaceae) attracts nocturnal scarab beetles with an unusual floral scent—the beetles pollinate the flower as they feed on pollen and nectar and mate on the inflorescences. Abstract Pollination by beetles has evolved multiple times in flowering plants but with relatively few plant species adapted specifically to pollination by ...

Hypogean carabid beetles as indicators of global warming?
Climate change has been shown to impact the geographical and altitudinal distribution of animals and plants, and to especially affect range-restricted polar and mountaintop species. However, little is known about the impact on the relict lineages of cave
