Effects of land cover and protected areas on flying insect diversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Widespread insect losses are a critical global problem. Mitigating this problem requires identifying the principal drivers across different taxa and determining which insects are covered by protected areas. However, doing so is hindered by missing information on most species owing to extremely high insect diversity and difficulties in ...

Growth and development in a lepidopteran with variable instar number, Pseudocoremia suavis (Geometridae), under standard rearing conditions and when parasitised by Meteorus pulchricornis (Hymenoptera: Braconidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2014
Though extra instars are often associated with poor conditions and thought to be a compensation for a low growth rate, the reasons why they are necessary, and for variable instar number existing under standard rearing conditions, are not yet clear.

Evaluating DNA quality in Coleoptera and Lepidoptera: Impact of fixation and preservation in various trapping methods

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 8, Page 903-917, August 2025.
We examined how various trapping, fixation, and preservation methods affect the DNA quality of Coleoptera and Lepidoptera specimens. We found that propylene glycol and cyanide vapors effectively preserved DNA, whereas brine provided a cost‐efficient alternative.

Effect of host species on larval growth differs between instars: The case of a geometrid moth (Lepidoptera: Geometridae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2013
Although the effects of host plant quality on the performance of polyphagous herbivores are largely uniform across insect taxa, there are various exceptions to this rule.
