Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.This study systematically elucidates the complex tritrophic networks among the keystone shrub Lycium ruthenicum, three gall‐inducing pests, and 13 associated parasitoid species in the arid desert ecosystems of northern Xinjiang, China, reporting the globally novel stem gall‐inducing behavior of Scrobipalpa erichiodes.

, 1954 A review of the available information concerning gall midges as endoparasites shows that only three species in two genera have been described.Endaphis perfidus Kieffer is a parasite of apterous Drepanosiphum platanoides (Schr.) (Aphididae) in Lorraine ...

The effects of a new gall midge in the Panamanian fig/fig wasp mutualism
, 2022 The mutualism between the fig tree and the fig wasp pollinator is an important keystone interaction for tropical forests. However, many antagonistic and parasitic species take advantage of the fig/fig wasp mutualism.

Identification of gall midge resistant parental lines and validation of fertility restoration linked markers for hybrid rice technology [PDF]
Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2014 The success of hybrid rice technology depends on the extent of heterosis realized, pest resistance and the grain quality of rice. To identify gall midge resistant, non aromatic maintainers and restorers, 114 germplasm lines were crossed with six CMS ...

Hymenopteran parasitoids reared from European gall midges (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) [PDF]
Biodiversity Data JournalWe report the results of investigations 2010 through 2023 of hymenopteran parasitoids associated with gall midges in Europe. A total of 242 collections of gall midges were made, from each of which one to several parasitoid species emerged, resulting in ...

An endoparasitoid avoids hyperparasitism by manipulating immobile host herbivore to modify host plant morphology. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Many parasitic organisms have an ability to manipulate their hosts to increase their own fitness. In parasitoids, behavioral changes of mobile hosts to avoid or protect against predation and hyperparasitism have been intensively studied, but host ...

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 5, Page 926-943, October 2026.Anthropogenic linear features facilitate high‐elevation colonization. Parasitoid pressure declines markedly with elevation. Cocoon damage increases despite reduced parasitism at high elevation. Abstract The upper elevational range limits of thermophilic arthropods reflect constraints on population persistence rather than simple presence.

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.We provide 30 year trends in abundance and phenology for the less well known charismatic flying insects and ballooning spiders that we class as neglected and undervalued ‘Cinderella species’. We show that of the 71 groups studied, the majority of taxa, all trophic groups and nearly all habitat use groups report increasing abundances and stable or ...

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa L.) production remains central to global food security, particularly across Asia, where both wetland and upland cultivation systems dominate. These agroecosystems face distinct ecological and agronomic constraints that threaten sustainable intensification.
