Abstract Premise Polyploidy is key to plant evolution by contributing to speciation, diversification, and adaptability. However, the minority cytotype exclusion effect can limit the persistence of polyploids, which can be mitigated by reproductive barriers such as distinct insect visitation between cytotypes. In eastern Spain, the diploid C.

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 ...

The conservation value of Aculeata communities in sand quarries changes during ecological succession
Sand quarries that are used occasionally and not subjected to rehabilitation are important biodiversity banks in both anthropogenic and semi-natural landscapes.

Phylogeny of "Sphecidae" (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) based on molecular data [PDF]
Die Grabwespen (Sphecidae sensu Bohart & Menke 1976; Sphecidae sensu lato in neueren, phylogenetischen Arbeiten), zu denen nach Day (1984) und späteren Autoren auch die Heterogynaidae zählen, umfassen derzeit 266 Gattungen mit 9559 beschriebene Arten ...

Spiders in a hostile world (Arachnoidea, Araneae) [PDF]
Spiders are powerful predators, but the threats confronting them are numerous. A survey is presented of the many different arthropods which waylay spiders in various ways. Some food-specialists among spiders feed exclusively on spiders.

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.

Crabronidae Of this family 48 species from 23 genera were listed so far from these islands. The genus Solierella is represented by three species: S. canariensis, S. dispar and S. pectinata. Solierella dispar PULAWSKI 1964 is known from the island of Fuerteventura. On 11 May 2002 a female was caught on the island of Lanzarote, near San Bartholomé.

The clockwork of insect activity: Advancing ecological understanding through automation
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 ...
