Structural Colour in Bees (Hymenoptera: Anthophila) Is Linked to Climate and Latitude

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Environmental drivers frequently predict global patterns of colour diversity, but whether such patterns depend on the underlying colour mechanisms—pigments or microscopic structures—has scarcely been considered. Structural colour may have different functional properties that result in different associations with environmental variables ...

Sampling methods and metereological factors on pests and beneficial organisms in strawberries

EntomoBrasilis, 2021
We characterize the population dynamics of pests and beneficial organisms in strawberries to assess the impact of two meteorological factors (temperature and precipitation) and define the most appropriate method for monitoring insects in strawberries ...

Reciprocal relations shape cultural landscapes: Women's environmental stewardship in Ait Bouguemez (High Atlas, Morocco)

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2847-2865, August 2026.
Abstract Mountain social–ecological systems encompass steep ecological gradients and diverse cultural practices, yet the relative roles of these factors in shaping mountain landscapes remain underexplored. In particular, the knowledge and practices of women in coproducing biocultural landscapes are often invisible in the academic literature. In the Ait

More diverse temperate forests are more resistant against non‐native insect herbivores

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Promoting mixed forests could be an effective strategy to attenuate the impact of invasion by non‐native forest pests. Abstract In general, trees suffer less damage by insect herbivores when growing in forest mixtures than in tree monocultures. Yet, most current knowledge is based on responses of native herbivores to tree diversity.

Oak heterogeneity shaping arthropod diversity and ecological dynamics in Boumezrane forest (Souk Ahras, Algeria) [PDF]

Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics
The Boumezrane Forest in northeastern Algeria is a biodiversity hotspot characterized by a mosaic of oak species and varied habitats. This study examines how habitat heterogeneity influences arthropod diversity across five forest habitats: Cork Oak, Zeen

The Recovery of Predators Modulates Prey Community Organization Through Concomitant Changes in Aquatic Trophic Networks

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Restoring predator populations can generate cascading effects on their prey by reshaping ecosystem food webs, yet its consequences for prey community organization and multi‐trophic dynamics remain poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate how native predator recovery shapes prey biodiversity, assembly processes, and trophic dependencies, and

Necrophagous Insects and Internal Temperature Synergistically Determine Duration of the Decomposition Process for Deer Carcasses When Vertebrate Scavengers are Excluded

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Predicted survival curves from the accelerated failure time (AFT) model showing the probability that deer carcass weight remains above 30% of its initial value over time. Curves represent predictions at −1 SD, mean, and + 1 SD of each covariate (initial body weight, average air temperature, and duration until the first peak in internal carcass ...
