Generation cycles in experimental populations of a multivoltine insect

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 782-794, May 2026.
Although theory suggests various mechanisms by which environmental and ecological factors may drive generational fluctuations, our field‐cage experiment is the first to demonstrate how internal dynamics and external disturbances jointly produce synchronised, large‐scale outbreak cycles.

Feeding ecology of Australian Christmas beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Rutelinae): Implications for conservation and habitat management

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract Christmas beetles (subfamily Rutelinae, genera Anoplognathus, Calloodes and Repsimus) are an ecologically important and culturally significant group of Australian scarabs, known for their striking appearance and seasonal mass emergences. Over the last decade, anecdotal reports suggest widespread population declines, raising concerns about ...

The enemy of my enemy: concomitant impacts of goat browsing on native vegetation during invasive plant control

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
The goal of invasive plant management is often to benefit native plants; however, the consequences of invasive plant management on native plants are not often assessed. While this is true generally for invasive plant management, it is particularly true for targeted grazing using livestock, such as goats, which is a rapidly expanding but little‐studied ...

Impacts of Highland cattle browsing on encroaching Alnus viridis shrubs

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction In several European mountain chains, the expansion of the tall shrub Alnus viridis into mountain pastures has altered vegetation structure and composition, reduced plant species diversity, and diminished forage quality. Recent woody encroachment research has explored the use of robust livestock breeds, such as Highland cattle (Bos
