Origin of gall-inducing from leaf-mining in Caloptilia micromoths (Lepidoptera, Gracillariidae)
In insects, the gall-inducing life-style has evolved independently many times. Several evolutionary pathways leading to this lifestyle have been proposed.

Evaluation of attract-and-kill strategy for management of cocoa pod borer, Conopomorpha cramerella, in Malaysia cocoa plantation [PDF]
In South-East Asia, cocoa production is dramatically affected by cocoa pod borer (CPB) infestations. As an alternative tool to chemical control, the efficacy of attract-and-kill strategy (CPB sex-pheromone as attractant and Delta trap without sticky ...

Summary Fossilized plant–insect herbivore associations provide fundamental information about the assembly of terrestrial communities through geologic time. However, fossil evidence of associations originating in deep time and persisting to the modern day is scarce. We studied the insect herbivore damage found on 284 Eucalyptus frenguelliana leaves from

Species richness and abundance of native leaf miners are affected by the presence of the invasive horse-chestnut leaf miner [PDF]
The effect of the alien horse-chestnut leaf miner, Cameraria ohridella, on native fauna was studied by comparing the species richness of native leaf miner communities and the abundance of selected native leaf miner species in the presence and absence of ...

Commodity risk assessment of Alnus cordata, Alnus glutinosa and Alnus incana plants from the UK
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to prepare and deliver risk assessments for commodities listed in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2019 as ‘high‐risk plants, plant products and other objects’. Taking into account the available scientific information, including the technical information provided by ...

Leaf Shelters Facilitate the Colonisation of Arthropods and Enhance Microbial Diversity on Plants
This research demonstrates that ecosystem engineers, through the construction of leaf shelters, play a critical role in shaping not only arthropod community assembly but also the dynamics of the phyllosphere microbial community. We identified specific bacterial taxa with strong associations with leaf shelters, revealing a shift in microbial community ...
