The abundance and phenology of four common agromyzid leafmining flies (Diptera: Agromyzidae) and their associated parasitoid wasps in southern Victoria

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2025.
Abstract Three polyphagous agromyzid leafminers, Liriomyza sativae Blanchard, Liriomyza huidobrensis (Blanchard) and Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess), have recently invaded mainland Australia, posing a threat to horticultural crops. Overseas, these species are often effectively controlled by local hymenopteran parasitoids.

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Cytisus scoparius*

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 7, Page 1877-1933, July 2025.
Broom is an attractive and common native plant across Britain, Ireland and most of Europe, and yet it is considered a harmful and invasive weed around the rest of the world. This is aided by broom thriving on poor dry soils, helped by using green stems for photosynthesis and having root nodules to fix nitrogen.

EUCOILINAE (HYMENOPTERA: FIGITIDAE) COLETADOS EM LAVRAS, MINAS GERAIS

open access: yesArquivos do Instituto Biológico, 2003
RESUMO Com esse trabalho, pretendeu-se conhecer as espécies de Eucoilinae capturados, utilizando-se a armadilha "Malaise", em Lavras, Minas Gerais, Brasil. A armadilha Malaise captura os insetos por interceptação, os quais foram coletados quinzenalmente com o uso de peneira fina e fixados em álcool a 70% para posterior identificação.

Pharmacophagy in insects: Ecological and evolutionary perspectives on the non‐nutritional use of plant specialized metabolites

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 661-673, July 2025.
Insects interact with plants not only for nutrition but also to actively seek plant specialized metabolites (PSMs) for chemical defense, reproduction, and self‐medication—a behavior known as pharmacophagy. This review examines how insects across diverse orders acquire PSMs from both food and non‐food plants for non‐nutritional benefits.

What is the potential for artificial selection of insect biological control traits? A systematic review of their genetic variation, heritability, and evolvability

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 6, Page 463-497, June 2025.
Growing interest in optimizing biocontrol traits, particularly due to Nagoya Protocol constraints, necessitates understanding their heritability and genetic variation. This systematic review of 5209 studies on arthropod biocontrol agents yielded 94 relevant articles, with 42 providing heritability values.

Overwintering features of Drosophila parasitoids (Hymenoptera) in a temperate region of Japan

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 195-203, June 2025.
Overwintering was studied in parasitoids utilizing Drosophila flies by outdoor rearing and laboratory experiments in central Japan. Asobara, Ganaspis and Trichopria had limited capacities to overwinter under the climate of the study site. A number of Leptopilina tsushimaensis and Leptolamina sp.
