Habitat characteristics and nest of the ladybird spider, Eresus kollari (Araneae: Eresidae) in South Korea

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Eresus kollari is typically found in dry grasslands and stony steppes; however, in South Korea, it has been primarily found in the humid environments of cemeteries. These spiders have highly localized habitats, and their burrowing and nest‐building habits make them difficult to find and observe in the field.

The best of two worlds: toward large‐scale monitoring of biodiversity combining COI metabarcoding and optimized parataxonomic validation

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 6, June 2025.
In a context of unprecedented insect decline, it is critical to have reliable monitoring tools to measure species diversity and their dynamic at large‐scales. High‐throughput DNA‐based identification methods, and particularly metabarcoding, were proposed as an effective way to reach this aim.

Sexual Dimorphism of Tarsal Attachment Devices and Their Relation to Mating in Coccinellidae

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 4, April 2025.
We explore the coevolution of male attachment devices and female elytral morphology in coccinellids. Specifically: (1) Disco‐setae are present in males of some species, located on the hairy pad which during mating hold on female elytra. (2) The area of male disco‐setae is extended when females have smooth elytra, and reduced when females have hairy ...

Checklist of the Curculionoidea of Hungary (Coleoptera) [PDF]

open access: yesFolia Entomologica Hungarica, 2019
The last checklist of the superfamily Curculionoidea of Hungary was published in 1996. Between 1996 and 2019, 68 species were added to the Hungarian fauna. This paper lists 1224 species belonging to 329 genera of 5 families from present-day Hungary. Taxonomical changes and erroneous country records in the literature are corrected. With 9 figures.
