Recommended dosage and environmental risk assessment of insecticides registered on main pyralid borers in China

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Based on the registration information of insecticides for controlling the main pyralid borers, active ingredients with high dosages were identified and analyzed based on formulations and target pests. Additionally, the environmental risks on honeybees were assessed.

Refuge trifecta: intertidal gastropods use pits to escape heat, wave action and predation

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Refuges play a critical role in ecology and evolution. In hard intertidal shores, small pits attract benthic invertebrates such as gastropods, however, there exists little mechanistic understanding of the processes driving the active usage of these microhabitat features. We conducted a series of laboratory experiments to assess whether the marine snail

Clear effects of population and sex but not rearing temperature on stress tolerance in a temperate butterfly

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
With temperatures rising globally due to climate change, an organism's survival depends both on its direct tolerance to rising temperatures and its tolerance to indirect effects of warming, such as resource shortage. Genetic background and phenotypic plasticity in the form of acclimation are known to affect stress tolerance, but much about genetic ...

Male mate‐choice copying: a neglected aspect of sexual selection

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Mate‐choice copying occurs when the choices of others influence an individual's mating preferences. While this behavior has been observed across various species, most research has focused on female copying behavior. However, male mate‐choice copying warrants independent attention due to the distinct benefits and costs it entails for males compared to ...

Historical anthropogenic stressors affect bird ecology and feather development in neotropical forests

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Fragmentation and habitat loss driven by agricultural expansion have significantly affected bird ecology. Additionally, the growing use of agrochemicals impacts ecosystems and avian communities. Tools such as isotopic analysis provide reliable proxies for assessing organisms' habitat use and diet, and can also reflect environmental alterations, such as
