Large‐flowered stapeliad Edithcolea grandis (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) is pollinated by dung‐ and blood‐feeding African face flies (Muscidae: Musca xanthomelas)

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract The more than 360 species of stem‐succulent stapeliads in the tribe Ceropegieae represent a perfect example for species radiation and diversification in response to pollination by flies. In the majority of species, the myiophilous flowers have visual and olfactory characteristics that suggest carrion or dung mimicry.

Cinderella Biodiversity: Three Decades of Monitoring Reveal Earlier Emergence and Increasing Abundance in Undervalued and Sparsely Recorded Flying Insects and Ballooning Spiders

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.
We provide 30 year trends in abundance and phenology for the less well known charismatic flying insects and ballooning spiders that we class as neglected and undervalued ‘Cinderella species’. We show that of the 71 groups studied, the majority of taxa, all trophic groups and nearly all habitat use groups report increasing abundances and stable or ...

Assessment of Hyporheic Macroinvertebrate Biodiversity Within Gravel Bars Before and After Flooding: Comparison of Morphology, Bulk‐Sample, and eDNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
eDNA metabarcoding is generally consistent with morphology and bulk‐sample metabarcoding in revealing changes in hyporheic macroinvertebrate biodiversity influenced by flood and lateral locations of hyporheic zones.

Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1099-1113, September 2026.
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

The effects of Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) on tropical stream food webs vary between two consecutive dry seasons

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1288-1296, September 2026.
Bti application altered tropical stream food‐web structure through changes in macroinvertebrate functional feeding groups. Collector‐filterers and predators showed context‐dependent responses, with clearer direct and indirect effects detected in 2016, the year with higher rainfall.
