Floral strips increase the abundance and spillover of beneficial insects in rotational crop fields

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract Insects provide many ecological functions that support agricultural production, but beneficial insect populations are often lower in areas of intensive agriculture. Agronomic practices that support beneficial insect populations are important for sustainable crop production.

Investigating bark, ambrosia and nitidulid beetle (Coleoptera: Scolytinae and Nitidulidae) communities and their potential role in the movement of Ceratocystis manginecans in commercial forestry plantations in Riau, Indonesia

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Beetles and beetle frass can harbour Ceratocystis propagules. The viability of the propagules and the ability of the beetles and/or beetle frass to spread C. manginecans requires further investigation. An interaction exists between infected trees and wood‐dwelling beetles, and this interaction differs between Acacia and Eucalyptus.

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...
