Damage caused by Phoracantha mastersi larvae are the primary cause of forest decline in Australia's subalpine forests. Behaviour of male adult beetles was tested in response to a suite of commercial semiochemicals and conspecifics engaged in active copulation within a Y‐maze.

ABSTRACT Wood‐inhabiting nematodes of the genus Bursaphelenchus are a group with significant ecological and economic impacts on global forest ecosystems. This review aims to update current knowledge on their spatial distribution, host‐vector associations and the factors driving species expansion under the framework of climate change.

Fifteen years after the publication of the first genomic sequence of a phytophagous beetle, we review here the wealth of genetic and genomic information generated so far for the species-rich beetle superfamilies Chrysomeloidea (longhorn, seed and leaf ...

ABSTRACT Communication via aggregation pheromones is responsible for the behavioural and ecological characteristics of many species of weevils (Coleoptera). In insects, pheromones are detected by specialized odorant receptors (ORs), called pheromone receptors (PRs), which are usually highly expressed in olfactory sensory neurons localized in the ...

Small saproxylic beetles and parasitoids peaked soon after the disturbance. Large saproxylic beetles and predatory beetles were more abundant in the next year. Life‐history traits and density‐dependence interactions shaped insect responses. ABSTRACT Saproxylic beetles (dead wood‐dependent) are among the organisms that can benefit from the conditions ...

From forest stand decline to salvage logging: Cascading impacts on saproxylic beetle diversity
Given the pronounced context dependency of the processes driving these cascading community dynamics, and considering the increasing frequency, severity and spatial extent of forest disturbances and global stand decline, it is imperative to integrate this complexity into management and conservation frameworks.

Sex Ratios Within the Quasi‐Social Parasitoid Genus Sclerodermus
ABSTRACT Sex ratios are an important component of parasitoid wasps' reproductive strategies and seem to be generally well described by evolutionary ecological theory, such as local mate competition (LMC). The sex ratios of several Sclerodermus species do not fit the predictions of standard LMC models, as their sex ratios remain strongly female biased ...
