Rainforest transformation reduces parasitoid wasp diversity—Can the enrichment of flowering vegetation alleviate this?

Ecological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 825-836, December 2024.
Rainforest transformation to monoculture plantations reduced species richness and abundance of parasitoid wasps. The study also highlighted the differences in community composition of parasitoid between forest and plantations. Experimental enrichment with flowering vegetation increased species richness of parasitoid wasps by 18% and abundance by 127 ...

Ants and predators cope with pest pressures by interacting with the surrounding vegetation at low spatial scales

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 10, Page 1187-1197, December 2024.
Abstract Biological control of pests can be enhanced by the presence of semi‐natural habitats within agricultural landscapes. However, this assumption remains controversial due to inconsistencies related to the type of agroecosystems and the natural enemies studied.

Reproductive ecology and egg parasitism of the Samoan swallowtail butterfly

Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract We investigated the reproductive ecology and effects of egg parasitism on the Samoan swallowtail butterfly (Papilio godeffroyi), which survives only on Tutuila Island, American Samoa, after having disappeared from the much larger islands of Upolu and Savai‘i in independent Samoa.

Antennal chemoreceptors in the European ectoparasitoid Sclerodermus cereicollis (Hymenoptera: Bethylidae)

Microscopy Research and Technique, Volume 87, Issue 10, Page 2275-2291, October 2024.
An evident sexual dimorphism concerning antennae length, types, number, and distribution of chemosensilla is shown. Long sensilla basiconica are present in females and could play a role in the host location and/or maternal care. Multiporous sensilla chaetica, longer and mostly represented in males, could play a role in intraspecific relationships ...

Chalcid wasps of the family Encyrtidae (Hymenoptera, Chalcidoidea) from Oslo Municipality, Norway, with description of a new species

, 2017
This contribution focuses on the family Encyrtidae from Oslo Municipality, one of the richer areas in Norway as biodiversity concerns. The following four species are reported for the first time from Norway: Metaphycus punctipes (Dalman, 1820), Protyndarichoides aligarhensis (Fatma & Shafee, 1985), Psyllaephagus belanensis (Hoffer, 1963) and Trechnites ...
