First Report of \u3ci\u3eAllonemobius Griseus\u3c/i\u3e and \u3ci\u3ePsinidia Fenestralis\u3c/i\u3e in Ohio (Orthoptera: Gryllidae and Acrididae) [PDF]

, 2017
Occurrences of Allonemobius griseus and Psinidia fenestralis in Ohio are pub- lished for the first time. Apparent restriction of these species to the sand deposits of northwestern Ohio, their localized distribution in scattered, non-contiguous blow- outs,

Urban peatlands can harbour diverse insect communities but depend on appropriate habitat management

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Urban peatlands can support high insect diversity, including endangered species and peat bog specialists. Flower diversity boosts endangered species, while succession cover reduces overall insect richness—but bog condition and urbanization showed no major effects.

Distribution of Orthoptera across the river valley (Kaluga-Aleksin canyon, European Russia) and their dynamics under the overgrowing of meadows

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука
Orthoptera insects (hereinafter – orthopterans) play a key role in grassland ecosystems and are often used as indicators of their condition. To conserve these insects and to model their habitat preferences, we need to know patterns of their distribution ...

Background matching, disruptive coloration, and differential use of microhabitats in two neotropical grasshoppers with sexual dichromatism

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Cryptic coloration is an adaptative defensive mechanism against predators. Color patterns can become cryptic through background coloration‐matching and disruptive coloration.

Reduced predation risk for melanistic pygmy grasshoppers in post-fire environments

Ecology and Evolution, 2012
The existence of melanistic (black) color forms in many species represents interesting model systems that have played important roles for our understanding of selective processes, evolution of adaptations, and the maintenance of variation. A recent study

Evaluating On-Farm Biodiversity: A Comparison of Assessment Methods [PDF]

, 2018
Strategies to stop the loss of biodiversity in agriculture areas will be more successful if farmers have the means to understand changes in biodiversity on their farms and to assess the effectiveness of biodiversity promoting measures.

Comparative analysis of immune responses in ovipositing and non‐ovipositing females of European earwig Analyse comparative de la réponse immunitaire avant et après la ponte chez le forficule européen

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Oviposition and care decrease the total haemocyte concentration. Oviposition and care affect haemocyte type proportions. Serratia marcescens challenge does not affect the immune cell parameters. Abstract Reproduction and immunity are essential biological processes that compete for resources and energy.

Resilience of floral scent emission after florivory

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Florivory is thought to affect floral traits, impacting pollination. However, our data suggest a stability in post‐florivory scent emission, which may guarantee the maintenance of pollinator visitation regardless of florivory, indicating a resilience of natural systems with multiple and simultaneous interactions. Created in BioRender. Tunes, P.
