More diverse temperate forests are more resistant against non‐native insect herbivores
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.Promoting mixed forests could be an effective strategy to attenuate the impact of invasion by non‐native forest pests. Abstract In general, trees suffer less damage by insect herbivores when growing in forest mixtures than in tree monocultures. Yet, most current knowledge is based on responses of native herbivores to tree diversity.

, 1983 This article 'Losses to Gall Midge' appeared in the International Rice Research Newsletter series, created by the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). The primary objective of this publication was to expedite communication among scientists concerned with the development of improved technology for rice and for rice based cropping systems.

Strong diel variation in the activity of insect taxa sampled by Malaise traps
Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 533-546, June 2026.Malaise traps sampled different communities during mornings (06:00–12:00), afternoons (12:00–16:00), evenings (18:00–22:00), and nights (22:00–06:00), highlighting the difference in diel rhythm between taxa. The highest diversity and abundance of insects were found during afternoons, the lowest diversity during night, and the lowest abundance during ...

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Premise Insect herbivory is a major biotic factor shaping plant populations and driving the evolution of defensive traits. Polyploidy (whole‐genome duplication) often induces substantial phenotypic and genotypic changes that may affect species interactions, including herbivory.

Entomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Pine aphids are notoriously destructive sap‐sucking pests of pine trees worldwide. We investigated the biocontrol efficacy of Bacillus velezensis CE100 through cuticle‐degrading enzymes, which degrade the cuticular structure of insect pests.

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 284-294, April 2026.We determined the trophic associations among fig wasp species associated with Ficus citrifolia by integrating gall morphology, the temporal sequence of wasp colonization, and oviposition behaviour. Dissection of galls produced by four gall‐inducing species at a late developmental phase enabled direct identification of occupants and inference of host ...

A first stab at investigating the Estonian fauna of gall midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae: Cecidomyiinae) [PDF]
Proceedings of the Estonian Academy of SciencesPlant-feeding gall midges are reported from Estonia for the first time. A week-long field trip in August 2025 resulted in records of 45 species as new to the country.
