Delimiting species, revealing cryptic diversity, and population divergence in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau weevils through DNA barcoding. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe Leptomias huangi Chao, 1981 mating on Bidens sp. (Asterales: Asteraceae). Abstract The Leptomias group represents one of the most diverse taxonomic group of weevils in the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau and its adjacent areas. Despite the potential of hidden diversity, relatively few comprehensive studies have been conducted on species diversity in this ...

Ecology, Volume 104, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 Abstract It is commonly expected that exotic plants experience reduced herbivory, but experimental evidence for such enemy release is still controversial. One reason for conflicting results might be that community context has rarely been accounted for, although the surrounding plant diversity may moderate enemy release.

Comparative assessment of heat tolerance in weevils associated with a fire‐prone ecosystem
Ecological Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 240-250, April 2023., 2023 The fire prone ecosystems of the cape floristic region host a high diversity of small apterous weevils. It is not known how these low mobility species cope with the extreme temperatures experienced. We carried out a first screening of the heat tolerance of several apterous weevil species in comparison to winged species with contrasting lifestyles.
