Shrubs and trees as natural insect protection for grazing animals in Switzerland and the alpine region: A systematic review of in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials Sträucher und Bäume als natürlicher Insektenschutz für Weidetiere in der Schweiz und im Alpenraum: Eine systematische Literaturübersicht über in vitro‐, in vivo‐ und klinische Studien

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 221-245, June 2026.
Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

An updated checklist of Culicoides Latreille, 1809 biting midges from the highlands of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo Une liste mise à jour des moucherons piqueurs de Culicoides Latreille, 1809 des hautes terres de l'est de la République démocratique du Congo

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 422-440, June 2026.
The highlands of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are home to critically endangered eastern gorillas (Gorilla beringei). Climate change could increase the abundance and distribution of Culicoides‐borne diseases. We utilized morphological and molecular techniques to identify Culicoides spp.

The response of perennial and temporary headwater stream invertebrate communities to hydrological extremes [PDF]

, 2009
The headwaters of karst rivers experience considerable hydrological variability, including spates and streambed drying. Extreme summer flooding on the River Lathkill (Derbyshire, UK) provided the opportunity to examine the invertebrate community response

Colonization and extinction mediate environmental effects on the phylogenetic diversity of invertebrate communities

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Phylogeny offers a powerful framework for understanding mechanisms driving community assembly. Yet, most empirical studies in community phylogenetics rely on observational approaches. In this study, we explore how two important drivers of community assembly—habitat size and predator presence—shape species richness and phylogenetic relatedness ...

Forest type influence on Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 660-674, May 2026.
Responses to forest type depended on the developmental stage of dipterans. Bract traits and forest type influenced larval abundance, but forest type had no impact on adult alpha and beta diversity. Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks showed a nested pattern for both forest types.
