Patterns of aerial arthropod biomass and diversity from three regions of boreal Alaska

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 826-855, September 2024.
We documented aerial arthropod biomass and diversity over 4 years in three regions in boreal Alaska—two in central Alaska and one in southcentral Alaska. Traps yielded 115,078 specimens of 15 orders and 692 unique taxa. Mean aerial arthropod biomass was more than three times higher in Fairbanks than in Anchorage.

Insects associated with edible mushroom Lentinula edodes (Berk.) Pegler (Agaricales: Agaricaceae) cultivation in Brazil
Insetos associados ao cultivo do cogumelo comestível Lentinula edodes (Berk.) Pegler (Agaricales: Agaricaceae) no Brasil

Semina: Ciências Biológicas e da Saúde, 2002
Lentinula edodes has adapted itself well to the Brazilian climate and its cultivation techniques are accessible to small and large producers. As with any other crop, the shiitake faces insect and pest attack problems, both during the mycelia colonization

International imports and climatic filtering drive compositional variation in non‐native insect establishments

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 30, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Aim Invasions of non‐native insects can have substantial impacts on agriculture, forestry, human health and biodiversity with considerable economic and environmental consequences. To understand the causes of these invasions, it is important to quantify the relative influence of principal drivers such as international imports and climatic ...

The evolutionary history of Coleoptera (Insecta) in the late Palaeozoic and the Mesozoic

Systematic Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 355-388, July 2024.
Structural transformations of the elytra and abdomen played a major role in the early beetle evolution in the Permian. Polyphaga appear late in the fossil record, with only a few fossils of Elateriformia in the Late Triassic. Several factors were involved in the enormous diversification of beetles in the Cretaceous but evolutionary interactions with ...

Behavioral and Electrophysiological Responses of the Fringed Larder Beetle Dermestes frischii to the Smell of a Cadaver at Different Decomposition Stages

Insects, 2020
A cadaver is colonized by a wide diversity of necrophagous insects. It is well documented that Dipterans are attracted by the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released by a corpse during the first minutes following death.

Morphometric analysis for determination of larval instars in Dermestes frischii Kugelann and Dermestes undulatus Brahm (Coleoptera: Dermestidae)

Journal of Forensic Sciences, Volume 69, Issue 3, Page 1088-1093, May 2024.
Abstract Dermestes frischii Kugelann, 1792 and Dermestes undulatus Brahm, 1790 are the most abundant species worldwide at outdoor or indoor crime scenes during the dry and skeletal stages of decomposition. The attribution of larval age in these beetles is problematic due to the variable number of instars, which is influenced by environmental factors ...

Age‐Stage, Two‐Sex Life Table of an Alarming Quarantine Pest Trogoderma granarium on Stored Products

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Trogoderma granarium (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) is a polyphagous pest of stored products and an alarming threat to food security around the globe. The current study is designed to construct the life table of T. granarium on four stored products, i.e., wheat, barley, rice, and maize at controlled conditions (33 ± 1°C, 65% RH, and a photoperiod of 14 : 10
