Petiolate wings: effects on the leading-edge vortex in flapping flight [PDF]
The wings of many insect species including crane flies and damselflies are petiolate (on stalks), with the wing planform beginning some distance away from the wing hinge, rather than at the hinge.

Impact of temperature and hypoxia on the size and survival of aquatic insects
Understanding size–temperature relations is crucial for the conservation of aquatic insects. We hypothesised that the combination of high temperature and hypoxia will lead to a reduction in the size of larvae and pupae of aquatic insects (non‐biting midge, Chrionomus riparius). We showed that Chironomus riparius pupae were significantly smaller at 30°C

Adult craneflies (Diptera: Nematocera) around springs in southern Finland
Adult craneflies were collected along 27 springs and springbrooks in 1999 and 2000 in southern Finland (biogeographical provinces of Ab, N, St and Ta). A total of 95 species (24 Tipulidae, 2 Cylindrotomidae, 54 Limoniidae, 12 Pediciidae and 3 Ptychopteridae) and 2714 individuals were identified.

Molecular Phylogeny and Biogeography of the Hawaiian Craneflies Dicranomyia (Diptera: Limoniidae)
The Hawaiian Diptera offer an opportunity to compare patterns of diversification across large and small endemic radiations with varying species richness and levels of single island endemism. The craneflies (Limoniidae: Dicranomyia) represent a small radiation of 13 described species that have diversified within the Hawaiian Islands.

Towards edge processing of images from insect camera traps
The advancement of light traps with camera‐based monitoring systems for nocturnal insects necessitates effective and flexible pipelines for analysing recorded images. In this paper, we present a flexible and fast processing pipeline designed to analyse these recordings by detecting, tracking and classifying insects in a broad taxonomy of 15 classes and
