The pollination ecology and mouthpart morphology of a pollen‐feeding fly Incurviseta cf. maculifrons (Diptera: Lauxaniidae) in the Australian Alpine

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
The Lauxaniid fly Incurviseta cf. maculifrons (Malloch, 1925) is a locally abundant but poorly understood flower visitor in the Australian Alpine. We describe the flower visitation, pollen transport, pollen diet and mouthpart morphology of I. cf. maculifrons using field observations, pollen analyses and scanning electron microscopy. I. cf.

A matter of timing: sagebrush steppe restoration seeding outcomes altered by species responses to warmer spring temperatures and interannual weather variation

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoration outcomes in cold desert ecosystems like sagebrush steppe are affected by weather variability, particularly during the spring, a critical time period for seedling establishment. Seedling emergence phenology is also highly variable among species in these ecosystems.

Managing Complaint Mechanisms for Regulatory Enforcement: Evidence From Human Rights Institutions During the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How do regulatory bodies ensure that including the beneficiaries of regulation in regulatory processes improves governance? In many regulatory arrangements, beneficiaries' “fire alarm” monitoring and reporting of targets' violations via complaint mechanisms activate regulatory bodies' enforcement role.

Shocks and Vulnerability in Rural Tanzania

Review of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relative importance of idiosyncratic and covariate shocks in shaping household vulnerability to poverty in rural Tanzania. Using five rounds of the Tanzanian National Panel Survey and a three‐level multilevel modeling framework, we account for the hierarchical structure of the data and decompose consumption variance ...
