Insect Science, EarlyView.Distinct lineages of the grasshopper Chorthippus parallelus (Orthoptera: Acrididae) form a well‐known hybrid zone (HZ) in the Pyrenees mountain range; the Iberian endemism C. p. erythropus (Cpe) and the subspecies C. p. parallelus, (Cpp) widely distributed throughout the rest of Europe. Both subspecies differ in diverse traits, including the strains of

Morph-Specific Fecundity and Egg Size in the Female-Dimorphic Damselfly Ischnura senegalensis [PDF]
, 2010 Females of coenagrionid damselflies exhibit color dimorphism, consisting of an andromorph and a gynomorph. This study compared reproductive traits between the female morphs in both field-captured and laboratory-reared females of the female-dimorphic ...

Warm or bright – Temperature and light microhabitat use in insect pollinators
Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.We investigated how bumblebee species foraging on a unique flower resource in a heterogeneous habitat might coexist thanks to differential use of light and temperature microhabitats. Our study suggests that temperature acts as a first filter of the local species pool and that, for a given temperature, the present species partition along a light ...

Diversity of damselflies (Zygoptera) in Gorewada International Bio- Park, Nagpur, Central India [PDF]
Arthropods, 2014 Gorewada International Bio-Park consists of a lake as a major water source, marshy shore and heterogeneity in vegetation. Its geographical location is 21o11'N 79o2'E. Observations are made through walking line transects along the lake border to determine

Molecular detection of pathogens in an equine fever diagnostic panel: 2019–2023
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background A common diagnostic approach for febrile horses is to test for a panel of potential pathogens. Panels are curated by expert opinion and vary between diagnostic laboratories. Objectives To report the results of a newly developed equine fever diagnostic panel (EFDP) between 2019 and 2023 and evaluate the frequency of positive results.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Animal personality plays a key role in translocation success in both wild‐to‐wild and captive‐to‐wild translocations, with important implications for the success of conservation projects. However, the majority of studies so far have explored the link between personality and translocation success in vertebrate translocations, and there has been less ...

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Gut microbiota regulate multiple aspects of host health, including metabolism and the development of the immune system. However, we still know relatively little about how the gut microbiota influences host responses to parasitism in wild organisms, particularly whether host‐microbiota interactions contribute to variation in parasitism across ...

Restoration using flow deflectors: a question of fine‐scale spatial layout in headwater stream beds
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Current European Union objectives for 2030 aim to restore ecosystems to halt biodiversity loss. Here, we studied the consequences of headwater stream restoration by placing large wood in the streambed to act as flow deflectors. We hypothesized that these flow deflectors would create a fine‐scale spatial arrangement of habitats, fostering a diverse and ...
