Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Sympatric bat species can co‐exist and avoid interspecific competition via niche differentiation e.g. diet. Detecting dietary differences can be achieved by comparing dietary niches of sympatric and allopatric populations. If dietary overlap is higher in sympatry versus allopatry, co‐occurrence may be altering the dietary niche of the species.

Cicada as a food for mammals: a global review and implications for mammal behaviour and populations
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) are among the most important insect prey for many vertebrate predators, including birds and mammals, owing to their large size and high nutritional value. Although the ecological roles of cicadas as prey for birds have been well documented, the interactions between mammals and cicadas are relatively unknown.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urban green spaces experience a mix of natural and anthropogenic noises, which could disrupt the vocal communication of several species. This study investigated how such complex soundscapes affect the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula, which communicates through calls, focusing on both sound level and quality.

European Journal of Entomology, 2018 The cotton aphid, Aphis gossypii Glover (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is a serious pest of citrus in northern Iran, both because of the damaged caused by its feeding and as a vector of several viruses. The genetic structure of populations of A.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Herbivory can affect the soil microbiome, creating legacies that affect plant resistance, but how these effects vary by feeding guild and the plant traits involved remain underexplored. We tested how soil legacies created by a leaf‐chewing caterpillar (Spodoptera exigua)

The complete mitochondrial genome of the assassin bug Reduvius gregoryi (Hemiptera: Reduviidae)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019 The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the assassin bug, Reduvius gregoryi, was determined. The sequenced mitogenome is a typical circular DNA molecule of 16,477 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a ...
