Long‐term population dynamics of an insect in a simple food web under a changing environment

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 6, Page 1294-1306, June 2025.
This long‐term population study illustrates the complexity of weather effects on insects and how population variability depends on the form of density dependence. Weak regulation leads to long‐term fluctuations without clear traces on short‐term variation. Responses to even drastic changes can be hard to detect without accurate knowledge of mechanisms.

Pesticide use and large patch size reduce natural pest control potential in vineyards

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 6, Page 1509-1519, June 2025.
Our results suggest that the magnitude of natural pest control services can be improved by reducing intensive management practices at the field scale and by promoting greater landscape heterogeneity, for example, by reducing the mean patch size. These findings highlight the potential for promoting ecosystem services and limit pesticide use, thereby ...

Evidence for transient deleterious thermal acclimation in field recapture rates of an invasive tropical species, Bactrocera dorsalis (Diptera: Tephritidae)

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 1004-1018, June 2025.
Abstract Knowing how environmental conditions affect performance traits in pest insects is important to improve pest management strategies. It can be informative for monitoring, but also for control programs where insects are mass‐reared, and field‐released.
