Hyperspectral proximal sensing was used to characterize the life stages and physiological responses of Diatraea saccharalis and to detect parasitism by Cotesia flavipes. Distinct spectral signatures differentiated eggs, larval instars, pupae, and adults, as well as live, dead, and parasitized larvae.

In a given number of samples, grassland sward islets contain more species of arthropods than the surrounding sward. When corrected for abundance, there is no difference in species richness, suggesting that the effect of islets might purely be to concentrate arthropods. The community structure differences indicated by non‐metric multidimensional scaling

Suitability of Different Host Plants for Nymphs of The Sharpshooter Tapajosa rubromarginata (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Proconinii) [PDF]
The glassy-winged sharpshooter (GWSS), Homalodisca vitripennis(Germar) has become a major pest in California primarily as a vector of Xylella fastidiosa a bacteria that cause severe diseases to grapes. Owing to the uncertainty of the effectiveness of egg

Arthropod Assemblages in Desert Ecosystems of Alula County, Saudi Arabia
This study provides preliminary descriptions of arthropod communities in two desert habitats—arid thorn woodlands and wadis—across protected areas in AlUla County, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Pitfall trapping over a 6‐day period yielded more than 2000 specimens representing at least 189 morphospecies, with ants (Formicidae) and springtails ...
