DNA barcoding of Toumeyella parvicornis (Hemiptera: Coccidae)
, 2023 The pine tortoise scale, Toumeyella parvicornis (Hemiptera: Coccidae), is a sap-sucking pest native to the Nearctic region that affects several Pinus species, whose heavy infestations may contribute to host tree declines. Recently, the scale insect was

TcALS knockdown accelerates metamorphosis via insulin signaling in Tribolium castaneum
Insect Science, EarlyView.RNAi silencing of TcALS accelerates larva‐to‐pupa metamorphosis in Tribolium castaneum. Abstract Insect metamorphosis is an evolutionary adaptation precisely regulated by nutritional and hormonal cues. The red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, a major stored‐product pest, serves as an excellent model for studying this process.

Consistent Choice of Prey Source Habitat Across Diverse Landscapes by a Selective Insectivorous Bat
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.After analyzing the diet of the greater horseshoe bats in three distinct colonies, we identified significant spatial and temporal differences, particularly noting a stronger reliance on riparian habitats in Mediterranean areas. The species exhibits great ecological adaptability with strong plasticity in prey source habitats, shifting preferences among ...

Responses of Soil Arthropod Communities to Varying Shading Levels in Agriphotovoltaic Systems
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Soil fauna was primarily influenced by crop type and season rather than AgriPhotovoltaic (APV) panels. Elevated panels increased soil temperature and soil organic matter in early wheat stages, while shading enhanced soil moisture for tomatoes, benefiting moisture‐sensitive taxa.

Mothbox and Mothbot: Automated light trap and data processing system for scalable insect monitoring
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Insects represent the most diverse group of organisms on Earth and comprise the majority of known species; yet they are seldom accounted for in large‐scale biodiversity monitoring systems and conservation planning. We have developed the Mothbox—an open source automated light trap that makes insect monitoring accessible to non‐specialists and ...
