Spreading of recently introduced North American sand dropseed (Sporobolus cryptandrus) threatens European native dry grassland arthropods

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 131-145, January 2026.
The effects of sand dropseed (Sporobolus cryptandrus) invasion on arthropods depended on its density and varied between habitat types and arthropod groups. Vegetation‐dwelling, primarily herbivorous orthopterans and true bugs were most sensitive to invasion. Sand dropseed negatively affected the arthropod species of high natural value.

Native insect species should be selected for classroom rearings

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 1-10, January 2026.
Rearing insects in the school classroom can build positive attitudes towards insects among schoolchildren, which is becoming increasingly important as insect populations decline. Identified frequent use of non‐native insect species, raising environmental and ethical concerns after classroom rearing ends.

Quantitative Metabarcoding Reveals the Effects of Ecological Factors and Invasive Species on Functional Diversity of Freshwater Insects

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquatic insects are the most biodiverse freshwater animals. DNA metabarcoding data are increasingly used to assess variation in insect communities, but they are rarely integrated with information on the abundance or biomass of different taxa that can provide key insights into their functional responses.
