Morphology‐based phylogeny of longhorn beetles (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) aligns with phylogenomics and informs higher‐level systematics

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a morphology‐based backbone phylogeny of Cerambycidae beetles inferred by parsimony analyses using 77 adult characters scored for 101 species. This phylogeny is largely consistent with recent phylogenomic studies regarding key placements (e.g., Parandrini stat. rev. within Prioninae, Necydalini stat. rev.

First genomic analysis of Platycopioida and phylogenomics across six copepod orders

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent advances in bioinformatics have significantly expanded our understanding of the genetic properties of organisms and have provided valuable insights into their phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary histories. However, molecular phylogenetic studies of the class Copepoda remain limited, and the focus has been mainly on the major ...

Pest‐preservation paradox among insects

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
The pest‐preservation paradox is a non‐binary perspective that insects range from those that are harmful and requiring management on the one side, to those requiring conservation intervention on the opposite end of the spectrum. Importantly, the vast majority of insects occur somewhere in the center of the two extremes, and their position along the ...

Using a Generic Blend of Pheromones to Simultaneously Attract a Diversity of Elaterid Beetle Species Native to Eastern North America

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We assessed attraction of eight elaterid species to a “generic” pheromone blend containing their eight known pheromones or sex attractants. All eight species were attracted by their specific attractants, as expected. Six species were attracted to the blend, but the remaining two species were strongly inhibited by unknown blend components.

Landscape and Geography Determine Saproxylic Beetle Captures in Pheromone‐Baited Traps

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Pheromone‐baited traps at 39 forest sites across southern Sweden captured 58 saproxylic beetle species, including seven Red‐listed taxa. The effect of surrounding forest cover on beetle abundance may depend on latitude and longitude: positive effects were strongest in warmer southern and eastern regions but weakened or reversed in colder northwestern ...
