Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.
Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

Upstream Deforestation and Nonnative Crops Affect Leaf Breakdown and Aquatic Invertebrate Assemblages in Streams

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Stream ecosystem functioning and community structure are influenced by local and catchment land use. In mosaic landscapes, agricultural activities can also affect leaf breakdown and detritivore assemblages in downstream forest reaches. We evaluated the combined effects of upstream deforestation and the input of a nonnative crop species on leaf

Length–Dry Mass Relationships of Aquatic Insects: Geographic and Taxonomic Variation in a Digital Database

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aquatic insects are an abundant, yet declining, taxonomically heterogeneous group with special importance in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Accurate estimations of insect biomass during their aquatic life stages are essential to advance our fundamental knowledge about insects, their roles in ecosystems, and their vulnerability to ...

Palaeoendemic invertebrates weakly reflect palaeoendemic plants across a 52‐year‐old fire boundary

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 9, September 2024.
Palaeoendemic invertebrates are associated with palaeoendemic vascular plants more than could be expected by chance in alpine/subalpine ecosystems on either side of a 52‐year‐old fire boundary. However, some palaeoendemic invertebrates are generalists in their associations with plant species.
