Microhabitat Variation in Feeding Places Shape Ant‐Hemiptera Interactions Within Cocoa Agroecosystems

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
Ant‐hemipteran mutualistic networks in cocoa crops maintain a stable structural organization across different microhabitats (flowers, leaves, and fruits) and management types. This stability is not intrinsic to the network, but rather an emergent result of the behavior of a few generalist ant species acting as structural buffers.

Frost Decreases Fruit Production in a Neotropical Savanna: Implications for Frugivorous Bird Abundances

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
Severe frost events seem to be happening on average every 5 years, rather than 7 years, as previously reported in the southern limit of the Cerrado, a Neotropical savanna. We conducted this study in the Cerrado, where severe frost events allowed us to compare fruit production and frugivorous bird abundance before and after the disturbance.

Chrysoperla externa (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) as a Potential Biological Control Agent of Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 4, Page 335-342, April 2026.
First and third instar Chrysoperla externa showed efficient predatory capacity at low R. indica density, but second instar C. externa exhibits a density‐dependent predatory ability. The lacewing C. externa shows promise as a biocontrol agent for R. indica in coconut because it consumed 8362 R. indica females across all its larval instars.
