Sampling of the main hymenopteran parasitoids (Insecta: Hymenoptera) associated with sugarcane borer in organic and conventional farming systems

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical
Hymenopteran parasitoids strongly associated with the sugarcane borer [Diatraea saccharalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)] may be found both in organic and conventional sugarcane farming systems.

First record of the genus Zygota Förster, 1856 (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae, Belytinae) in Western Asia, with three new species records from Iran [PDF]

نامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران
During our studies on the family Diapriidae, three species of the genus Zygota were collected and identified for the first time from Western Asia and the Middle East based on Iranian specimens: Zygota abdominalis (Nees, 1834), Z.

Accuracy of occurrence and abundance estimates from insect metabarcoding

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2343-2363, August 2026.
Abstract DNA metabarcoding—high‐throughput sequencing of barcode regions from bulk samples—has become a key tool for insect biodiversity assessment. Yet, how methodological choices affect the accuracy of metabarcoding data remains insufficiently explored. In this paper, we ask: (1) How does the lysis method (non‐destructive lysis vs.

Laboratory Biology, Immature and Adult Morphology of Trichopria drosophilae (Perkins) (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae), Parasitoids of Drosophila Flies

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 863-875, August 2026.
This study investigates the laboratory biology and morphology of the parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae, which targets Drosophila flies, including the invasive Drosophila suzukii. Key findings include a detailed description of the parasitoid's egg, three larval instars, and pupal stage, as well as unique behaviors such as siblicide and encapsulation in ...

Performance of Leptopilina japonica Novković and Kimura (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) Under Fluctuating Temperature and Humidity

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 876-886, August 2026.
Temperature is an important factor to determine the activity of insects. We tested the performance of the non‐native larval parasitoid Leptopilina japonica (Hymenoptera: Figitidae) under realistic climatic conditions to improve understanding about its ongoing spread and seasonal abundance.

Do solar farms alter invertebrate communities and reduce activity of the common pipistrelle bat (Pipistrellus pipistrellus) through prey‐mediated effects?

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.
We investigated the effects of ground‐mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) farms on arthropod communities and tested whether changes in prey availability explain reduced bat activity. Solar farms altered arthropod community composition but did not reduce the abundance of key dipteran prey for Pipistrellus pipistrellus.

First record of two genera and species of Diapriinae (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae) from Iran

Journal of Crop Protection, 2020
Two genera, Aneuropria Kieffer and Diapria Latreille and two species, Aneuropria foersteri (Kieffer, 1910) and Diapria conica (Fabricius, 1775) (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae) are recorded from Iran for the first time.
