Seed Production and Pollinator Dependence in Native Wildflowers: Guiding Species Selection for Conservation Plantings

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
We investigated the pollination biology of eight native wildflower species in the southeastern U.S. to assess their dependence on insect pollinators and potential for self‐pollination. Most species showed significantly higher seed production and weight when open‐pollinated, indicating strong pollinator dependence, though some could reproduce without ...

Two new synonyms in Oriental Crabronidae (Hymenoptera)

open access: yesJournal of Hymenoptera Research, 2011
Malaygorytes konishii Nemkov, 1999 (now Argogorytes konishii) from Western Malaysia is synonymized with Argogorytes matangensis (Turner, 1914) from Eastern Malaysia. Cerceris bantamensis van der Vecht, 1964 from Java is synonymized with Cerceris ferox F. Smith, 1856 (which also occurs in Sumatra and Malaysia).

Probable marking behavior of Cerceris clypeata (Philanthinae, Crabronidae, Hymenoptera) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hymenoptera Research, 2018
Males of Cercerisclypeata appear to mark grass stems and other plant parts with secretions from cephalic glands by placing the head and tip of the abdomen on the plant as they walk up the stem or around the leaf of the marked plant. Behavior of this sort has rarely been recorded for Cerceris but is common in the Philanthinae including some members of ...

Host identity, nest quality, and parasitism strategy: influences on body size variation in parasitoid bees and wasps

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2025, Issue 6, June 2025.
Body size determines mobility and fitness across taxa in various ways. Yet, drivers of body size in higher trophic invertebrates, especially parasitoids, including intra‐ and interspecific variations, are poorly understood due to complex interactions between parasitoid behaviour, the environment and their hosts.

The clockwork of insect activity: Advancing ecological understanding through automation

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 4, Page 597-610, April 2025.
The study demonstrates that time‐controlled insect sampling using an automated Malaise trap in combination with metabarcoding allows for the observation and documentation of taxon‐specific activity patterns. These recorded activity patterns can provide valuable insights into the underlying ecological processes, including parasitoid–host relationships ...
