Grasshopper control in Missouri forage crops and pastures (1993) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Grasshoppers are relatively large insects, capable of doing considerable damage to many crops. In early summer, grasshoppers normally feed on grasses and weeds in non-crop areas, and later in the season, they move into fields.

Reducing the meta-emotional problem decreases physiological fear response during exposure in phobics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Anxiety disorders may not only be characterized by specific symptomatology (e.g., tachycardia) in response to the fearful stimulus (primary problem or first-level emotion) but also by the tendency to negatively evaluate oneself for having those ...

Effects of grassland fragmentation and precipitation on secretarybird Sagittarius serpentarius reproduction in the Serengeti ecosystem

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Accurate demographic data are essential for understanding population dynamics and developing effective conservation strategies for threatened raptor species. This study provides the first quantitative assessment of how grassland fragmentation at landscape scale, driven by woody plant encroachment, and interannual variation in precipitation affect the ...

The influence of the atmospheric boundary layer on nocturnal layers of noctuids and other moths migrating over southern Britain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Insects migrating at high altitude over southern Britain have been continuously monitored by automatically-operating, vertical-looking radars over a period of several years.

Exotic herbivores indirectly decelerate litter decomposition via increased resistance to herbivory in exotic plants

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The chemical components of exotic plants can change after invasion as they adapt to local conditions. Studying these changes is important because they can have a marked effect on ecosystem processes and dynamics.

Trait‐mediated effects driven by an invasive herbivore alter functionally diverse plant–frugivore interactions

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Fruit traits play a fundamental role in mediating plant‐frugivore interactions, shaping seed dispersal dynamics. Given the complexity of multi‐species interactions, these traits and, consequently, plant‐frugivore interactions can be indirectly influenced by third‐party ...

Phenotypic pattern over centric fusion clinal variation in the water-hyacinth grasshopper, Cornops aquaticum (Orthoptera: Acrididae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2018
The water-hyacinth grasshopper, Cornops aquaticum, occurs in freshwater environments in the New World between latitudes 23°N and 35°S. At the southernmost margin of this distribution the populations are polymorphic for three centric fusions (Robertsonian

Could Grasshoppers Be a Nutritive Meal

open access: yes, 2012
The nutritive value of 25 edible Orthoptera in Mexico is shown. Protein content ranges from 43.93% to 77.13% (mix of Edible Acrididade of Puebla). Fat percentage goes from 4.22% to 34.21%.

Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study pioneers the use of deep learning to rapidly assess over 22,000 Amazonian insects, revealing life history‐dependent winners and losers from forest loss. It shows that terrestrial insects decline while aquatic insects thrive, with body size influencing dispersal, offering key insights for biodiversity conservation in tropical fragmented ...
