The striped flea beetle, Phyllotreta striolata, is a globally notorious pest of cruciferous vegetables. In this study, we successfully sequenced the whole genome of the Chinese population of P. striolata. Comparative analysis with the reference genome of the Canadian population enabled a high‐resolution examination of genetic variation, which is ...

ABSTRACT The macauba palm (Acrocomia aculeata, Arecaceae) is a Neotropical native oil palm, increasingly important in Central and South America due to rising demand for raw materials and its potential for bioenergy. Understanding its pollinator ecology is crucial to identify new areas for cultivation. This study examines the structure of floral visitor

Patterns of aerial arthropod biomass and diversity from three regions of boreal Alaska
We documented aerial arthropod biomass and diversity over 4 years in three regions in boreal Alaska—two in central Alaska and one in southcentral Alaska. Traps yielded 115,078 specimens of 15 orders and 692 unique taxa. Mean aerial arthropod biomass was more than three times higher in Fairbanks than in Anchorage.

Abstract Aim Knowledge of taxonomy and species distributions in highly diverse lineages of invertebrates remains too incomplete for the study of biogeographical patterns at the global scale. This limits the understanding of processes leading to the formation and maintenance of boundaries between major biogeographical realms.
