Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although Diptera is one of the most diverse insect orders with a high potential for pollinating plants, it remains poorly studied and neglected. This is partly due to limited taxonomic efforts in species identification. For instance, despite being primary pollinators of trap flowers, species‐level identification in these systems remains scarce.

Population Ecology, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 191-207, July 2025.A scenario in which divergent selection derived from ecological environments leads to genital divergence through body size evolution. Abstract To explore how ecological diversity contributes to the establishment of ecologically similar species with sexual divergence, this review focuses on body size—an environmentally influenced trait that determines ...

Patterns of Gene Family Evolution and Selection Across Daphnia
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.This study examines gene family dynamics within Daphnia species, using comparative genomics to explore adaptive expansion in gene families, particularly those related to stress response. Findings reveal general trends in gene turnover and selection, although most changes are species‐specific, highlighting complex evolutionary patterns.

Metaphase Configurations in Drosophila: A Comparison of Endemic Hawaiian Species and Non-Endemic Species [PDF]
, 1976 The metaphase configurations of 400 strains from 63 species of Hawaiian Drosophila were determined from squash preparations of larval brain tissue or spermatogenic cells from adult testes.

Principles of genome evolution in the Drosophila melanogaster species group. [PDF]
, 2007 That closely related species often differ by chromosomal inversions was discovered by Sturtevant and Plunkett in 1926. Our knowledge of how these inversions originate is still very limited, although a prevailing view is that they are facilitated by ...

Carrion‐breeding flies of Australia and New Zealand: A review and key to adults
Austral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2025.Abstract Carrion‐breeding flies are diverse with over 70 species in the Australasian/Oceanian region, predominantly from the families Calliphoridae and Sarcophagidae. These flies play crucial roles in ecosystems as primary decomposers, pollinators and food sources for a variety of predators and parasites.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 319-329, May 2025.Our investigation applied genome skimming to museum specimens of Syntretus, a parasitoid wasp, due to its suspected parasitism of short‐haired bumblebee (Bombus subterraneus) queens during a reintroduction programme. We detected two clades within Syntretus, a possible consequence of host choice.
