Initial population size and resource availability are key factors regulating population dynamics, with growth rates typically declining as populations increase but rising with greater resources. In maize weevils, however, we found an unexpected negative effect of resource availability on intrinsic growth rates, contrary to conventional expectations. We

We compared the fecundity and damage caused by Calomela intemerata beetles on Acacia auriculiformis plants from different provenances. Beetles from Queensland laid more eggs and caused significantly more damage on Queensland plants than on those from other provenances.

No genetic differentiation among populations up to 300 km apart in three species of carrion beetles
Habitat fragmentation threatens biodiversity by disrupting gene flow; understanding species' dispersal abilities is key to determining whether they are limited by habitat or mobility. Carrion beetles show no significant population genetic structure across up to 320 km, indicating high dispersal ability and unrestricted gene flow.

The Coleoptera order (beetles) comprises the most species-rich group among the insect class, corresponding to approximately 40% of this class and 30% of all animals, encompassing more than 350,000 described species distributed worldwide (Lawrence 1982; Lawrence and Britton 1994; Arnett and Thomas 2001; Arnett et al. 2002).

We investigated how temperature and relative humidity influence the parasitic fungus Hesperomyces harmoniae on the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis under controlled laboratory conditions. Abiotic factors significantly affect parasitism: High relative humidity increased parasite prevalence, development rate, and load, while both low and high ...
