Local outbreaks of Operophtera brumata and Operophtera fagata cannot be explained by low vulnerability to pupal predation

open access: yes, 2013
One of the unresolved questions in studies on population dynamics of forest Lepidoptera is why some populations at times reach outbreak densities, whereas others never do.

Sanitation felling against the European spruce bark beetle: A matter of intensity and forest type Tagli fitosanitari contro il bostrico tipografo: una questione di intensità e tipologia forestale

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Annual flower strips under the ‘Sweden Blossom’ initiative – how do they perform for pollinators, natural enemies and herbivores?

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Pollinator‐targeted annual flower strips increase abundances of pollinators but also natural enemies and herbivores. Natural enemies and herbivores disperse in a taxon‐specific manner into nearby crops. Pest control by ground‐dwellers slightly increases in crop areas near the flower strips.

Evaluating the efficacy of tagging adhesives for insect tracking

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Two‐part epoxy resin delivered the strongest RFID tag adhesion on carabid beetles, exceeding polyvinyl acetate, cosmetic latex and cyanoacrylate adhesives. Adhesive performance was consistent across Harpalus, Leistus and Poecilus; species effects were non‐significant, supporting a broadly applicable protocol for carabid RFID tagging studies.

Development and survival of Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) on Eucalyptus genotypes

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first experimental evidence of the biological performance of Bemisia tabaci MEAM1 on Eucalyptus genotypes. Development time was shortest and viability highest on soybean compared with the evaluated Eucalyptus genotypes. B. tabaci MEAM1 completed its development on Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Eucalyptus urophylla × Eucalyptus ...
