Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long‐term trends, and data gaps

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Zebra stripes: the questions raised by the answers

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiple hypotheses have been suggested to explain why the three zebra species (Equus quagga, E. grevyi and E. zebra) are striped. We review how well these theories explain the nature (rather than simply the existence) of the stripes. Specifically, we explore how well different theories explain (i) the form of zebra stripes (especially on ...

Developing of artificial fruits to assess ovipositional responses of Drosophila suzukii under laboratory conditions

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
