Amephana dalmatica (Rebel, 1919) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) found in the Nature Park “Golija”: A new species in the fauna of the Republic of Serbia [PDF]

Zbornik Matice Srpske za Prirodne Nauke
Inventorying the diversity of entomofauna is the first stage in a consistent approach to its conservation. The diversity of Lepidoptera in Serbia, although impressive in terms of the number of inventoried species, is far from complete.

Addressing Gaps in Butterfly Population Monitoring to Catalyze Global Insect Conservation

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The conservation community sorely lacks a global indicator of change in insect populations. Given widespread insect declines, addressing this gap is key for conservation and policy targets. We suggest that butterfly monitoring programs can serve as the foundation for an effective global network of insect monitoring.

An Equatorial Hemispheric Barrier Shapes the Diversification of Migratory Belenois Butterflies

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Biogeographic barriers are typically considered prominent geographic features that block or severely restrict dispersal and gene flow. However, mating barriers can also emerge within continuous suitable habitats, driven by ecological or behavioural constraints. Migratory insects show an extraordinary capacity to traverse vast geographic ranges,

Culicidae Fauna (Diptera: Culicomorpha) of the Municipality of Mazagão, Amapá, in the Brazilian Amazon

Insects
The Amazon hosts one of the richest diversities of mosquitoes in the family Culicidae, which are key both as arbovirus vectors and as environmental bioindicators. However, the state of Amapá remains poorly studied regarding its mosquito fauna. This study

Comparative assessment of automated and manual monitoring in comprehensive plant–pollinator communities

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 12, Page 2960-2978, December 2025.
Abstract Pollinator declines pose a significant threat to ecosystem services, making effective monitoring methods critical for conservation efforts. Current research on pollination interactions remains constrained by traditional methods such as direct observations, which have limited spatial and temporal coverage and are inherently biased toward ...

SIMULAÇÃO DO USO DA ENTOMOLOGIA PARA ESTIMAR O INTERVALO PÓS-MORTE

Colloquium Vitae, 2018
Diversos tipos de insetos podem colonizar a matéria orgânica, acelerando assim os fenômenos cadavéricos transformativos, e através de estudos sobre esses animais, podem ser obtidas as características da morte ou até mesmo a causa.

One dung to attract them all: Faeces attractiveness to dung beetles in herbivore multispecies pasture

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 6, Page 1172-1183, December 2025.
Dung beetle attractiveness varies among dung from different herbivores despite similar diets. The diversity of herbivores within an enclosure has a limited effect on dung beetle's diversity. Trophic resource availability could impact dung beetle trophic preferences in the long term.

Quantophrenia and the Promises of Genetics: Do Research Practices (Dis)advantage the «Conservation» of Species?

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Population genetics is concerned with the variability of genetic diversity in populations subjected to different evolutionary forces. One concrete application of this research is international genetic diversity conservation policies. Our perspective manuscript is a plea for research activities and policies that control their environmental ...

Species of Peckia Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) occurring in an Atlantic Rainforest fragment, Bahia, Brazil: new records reported

Revista Chilena de Entomología
Insects of forensic importance can be attracted to crime scenes, thus aiding in the estimation of post-mortem interval (PMI). For this, knowledge about the entomofauna of each particular region is essential, along with their life cycle, ecological and ...
