Spatial Dynamics and Lifespan of Adult Cicadas After Fire and Logging: A Radiotracking Study
This study investigates the effects of wildfire and post‐fire salvage logging on the survival, spatial behavior, and habitat selection of Lyristes plebejus cicadas in Mediterranean pine forests. A total of 63 cicadas were captured, tagged with radio transmitters, and released in three disturbance contexts: burnt‐logged, burnt‐unlogged, and unburnt ...

Parasites of Nezara viridula (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) and Other Hemiptera in Florida
Trichopoda pennipes (Fab.) (Tachinidae) parasitized Nezara viridula (L.) adults (72%) and 4th and 5th instars (19%). It was collected from 8 other hosts in 3 hemipterous families. Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston) (Scelionidae) parasitized 45% of N. viridula egg masses and was collected from 5 other pentatomid hosts.

Semi‐tillage, a widely used agricultural method to improve water availability and minimise soil erosion in crops, may compromise pest control in olive groves. Stable isotopes (N15 and C13) analysis showed an effect of semi‐tillage in the composition of the basal resources of potential natural enemies in the three olive grove strata: These changes may ...

Investigating the ultimate factors that underpin the impacts of ski‐pistes on alpine species is crucial to identify concrete mitigation strategies. This is urgently needed given that winter sports are expanding in mountain ranges worldwide. We evaluated the impacts of ski‐pistes on the foraging behaviour of the white‐winged snowfinch, an iconic alpine ...
