Deadly Decomposers: Distinguishing Life History Strategies on the Parasitism‐Saprotrophy Spectrum
Despite being widespread, common, and important to medicine and agriculture, parasitic decomposers are poorly understood. Drawing on literature spanning bacteria to animals, we show that these deadly decomposers follow similar life history strategies regardless of taxon. We define four such strategies, providing diverse biological examples and deriving

Climate change has been linked to widespread changes in the distributions and abundances of many wild bee species; yet, the local‐scale processes that generate these patterns are unclear. From 2013 to 2022, we tracked individual reproductive output (brood cell production) in over 700 solitary female mason bees at seven sites in the Colorado Rocky ...

Overwintering features of Drosophila parasitoids (Hymenoptera) in a temperate region of Japan
Overwintering was studied in parasitoids utilizing Drosophila flies by outdoor rearing and laboratory experiments in central Japan. Asobara, Ganaspis and Trichopria had limited capacities to overwinter under the climate of the study site. A number of Leptopilina tsushimaensis and Leptolamina sp.
