Integrating remote‐sensing and meteorological data to identify key drivers of the potential distribution of a grassland grasshopper

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
An ensemble model achieved excellent accuracy (AUC = 0.973) in predicting the potential distribution of O. decorus asiaticus. Climate (temperature & August precipitation) and vegetation type are the primary drivers defining the species' suitable habitats.

Host plant use is driven by microclimate not nutritional quality in a grassland butterfly

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Small Copper butterflies (Lycaena phlaeas) choose to lay eggs on host plants growing in warmer microclimates, despite lower nitrogen content. Bare ground created by European Moles increases host plant temperatures and weakens the negative relationship between nitrogen content and microclimatic warmth.

Beyond species diversity: Functional responses of cave arthropods to microclimatic stability and structural complexity

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Nest boxes as microhabitats supporting diverse arthropod communities

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Diverse Micro‐Habitats: Nest boxes supported 3634 arthropods from 82 families, highlighting their significant conservation value as artificial micro‐habitats for diverse invertebrate communities beyond their primary use for birds. Occupancy Boosts Diversity: Occupied nests exhibited significantly higher arthropod richness, abundance and Shannon ...

Behavioural responses to radio‐tag attachment in butterflies: Evidence for active tag removal

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
During controlled indoor flight experiments with 89 butterflies from eight tropical species, we monitored behavioural responses to dorsally attached radio tags using high‐speed video recordings. Four of 39 Morpho helenor exhibited coordinated abdominal flexion and hind leg movements directed toward the tag antenna during flight; in two individuals this
