Effects of land cover and protected areas on flying insect diversity
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Widespread insect losses are a critical global problem. Mitigating this problem requires identifying the principal drivers across different taxa and determining which insects are covered by protected areas. However, doing so is hindered by missing information on most species owing to extremely high insect diversity and difficulties in ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is an invasive pest of soft‐skinned fruits. Using fresh fruits to test pesticides and repellents against this pest has certain limitations. In the present study, we evaluated nine different artificial fruits prepared from various food‐based mixtures as oviposition substrates for D. suzukii.

Impact of temperature and hypoxia on the size and survival of aquatic insects
Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Understanding size–temperature relations is crucial for the conservation of aquatic insects. We hypothesised that the combination of high temperature and hypoxia will lead to a reduction in the size of larvae and pupae of aquatic insects (non‐biting midge, Chrionomus riparius). We showed that Chironomus riparius pupae were significantly smaller at 30°C

The conservatism of prairie pollinators according to experts and empiricism
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.We derived ecological conservatism values for prairie pollinators using expert opinion and analysis of remnant fidelity. Expert values were potentially biased and struggled to differentiate between remnant and non‐remnant prairie sites Empirical values showed advantages for pollinator‐based site assessment and prioritization in prairie regions ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.We investigated the accidental translocation of arthropods with donor material during the establishment of a Sphagnum cultivation site. Although arthropods from 11 different orders were identified in the donor material, only Araneae, Coleoptera, and Hemiptera were found in significant numbers at the recipient site.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Coloured canopy Malaise traps, branch sampling and caterpillar traps detected most BOLD‐BINs and showed the highest cost‐efficiency in capturing flying insects across land use types, in singular and combined use. Caterpillar traps were particularly effective in forests and detected far more taxa than only Lepidopterans.
