Insecticide‐level pest control provided by in‐field flower strips
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.Our findings indicate that in‐field flower strips or derived legume‐based intercropping systems can help reduce reliance on pesticide use in agriculture. Abstract Biodiversity in agricultural landscapes has declined significantly due to intensified farming practices, underscoring the need for sustainable pest management.

Jumping mechanisms in lacewings (Neuroptera, Chrysopidae and Hemerobiidae) [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2014 AbstractLacewings launch themselves into the air by simultaneous propulsive movements of the middle and hind legs as revealed in video images captured at a rate of 1000 s-1. These movements were powered largely by thoracic trochanteral depressor muscles but did not start from a particular preset position of these legs.

Soil Traversing Arthropod Populations as Sampled by Pitfall Traps in Sunflower and Three Adjacent Habitats in Northeast Arkansas [PDF]
, 1982 Soil traversing arthropod populations were sampled by pitfall traps in sunflower (Helianthus spp.) and three adjacent habitats during the months of July, August and September of 1980 and May, June, July and August of 1981.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 4, Page 335-342, April 2026.First and third instar Chrysoperla externa showed efficient predatory capacity at low R. indica density, but second instar C. externa exhibits a density‐dependent predatory ability. The lacewing C. externa shows promise as a biocontrol agent for R. indica in coconut because it consumed 8362 R. indica females across all its larval instars.

Response of chrysopids (Neuroptera) to larval tracks of aphidophagous coccinellids (Coleoptera)
European Journal of Entomology, 2001 Choice tests showed that tracks left by coccinellid larvae have generally little effect on oviposition site selection by chrysopid females. Fresh tracks of first instar larvae of the coccinellid species Coccinella septempunctata, Cycloneda limbifer, Leis

EPPO Bulletin, Volume 56, Issue 1, Page 130-137, April 2026.Abstract The presence of Thrips parvispinus (Karny, 1922) is reported for the first time in Italy. Prior to this finding, within Europe the pest was only known to be established in Spain. The discovery happened in a greenhouse cultivating gerberas in south‐eastern Sicily, a region recognized as Italy's primary and one of Europe's most important ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.The mirid bug Apolygus lucorum (Meyer‐Dür) is a major pest affecting tea. Identifying the dominant predatory spiders of the mirid bug can provide a scientific basis for developing biological control technologies. Xysticus ephippiatus demonstrates the greatest potential as a biological control agent against A. lucorum.
