A new species of Empis Linnaeus, 1758 (Diptera: Empididae) from Morocco, with a key to Coptophlebia-like species of the Mediterranean basin [PDF]
Кавказский энтомологический бюллетень, 2018 Empis (Empis) nikita sp. n. is described from Morocco. The new species belongs to a group of species with incomplete vein M1 that was placed earlier to the subgenus Coptophlebia Bezzi, 1909. The new species differs from all species of Empis s. str.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1288-1296, September 2026.Bti application altered tropical stream food‐web structure through changes in macroinvertebrate functional feeding groups. Collector‐filterers and predators showed context‐dependent responses, with clearer direct and indirect effects detected in 2016, the year with higher rainfall.

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.Nutrients, including vital organic compounds, vary in availability across ecosystems, with the potential to act as a source of selection for traits that increase nutrient acquisition and biosynthesis. Compared to freshwaters, marine ecosystems are richer in the omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (n‐3 LC‐PUFA) docosahexaenoic acid (DHA ...

Accuracy of occurrence and abundance estimates from insect metabarcoding
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2343-2363, August 2026.Abstract DNA metabarcoding—high‐throughput sequencing of barcode regions from bulk samples—has become a key tool for insect biodiversity assessment. Yet, how methodological choices affect the accuracy of metabarcoding data remains insufficiently explored. In this paper, we ask: (1) How does the lysis method (non‐destructive lysis vs.

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 5, Page 997-1010, June 2026.ABSTRACT Ditches are essential elements of the agricultural landscape because of their role as habitat or refuge for aquatic species, especially in homogenized and intensively cultivated areas. However, data on the biodiversity associated with agricultural ditches, and its variation over time, are underrepresented in ecological research.
