The first finding of (TTAGG)n telomeric repeat in chromosomes of true bugs (Heteroptera, Belostomatidae)

Comparative Cytogenetics, 2012
Using the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), the presence of (TTAGG)n telomeric sequence was detected in the chromosomes of Lethocerus patruelis (Stål, 1854) belonging to the family Belostomatidae (Heteroptera: Nepomorpha).

Chironomids as Indicators of Biodiversity and Isolation Patterns in a Balkan Karst Biodiversity Hotspot

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Our research aimed to assess the beta diversity of Chironomidae (Diptera) and faunal connections across springs, streams, and rivers within the Skadar Lake basin, a Mediterranean biodiversity hotspot, using DNA barcoding. Location Skadar Lake basin—a Mediterranean biodiversity hotspot. Methods We analysed mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase

Challenges and Advances Driving Studies on Aquatic Insects of the Order Coleoptera

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquatic beetles (Coleoptera) are known for their high taxonomic and ecological diversity and their sensitivity to environmental changes, making them key bioindicators in ecological assessments. However, numerous knowledge gaps persist globally.

Arthropod conservation in roadside verges: Unmown refuges outperform mowing equipment changes

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 873-883, July 2026.
While roadside verges might have potential as connecting corridors for grassland habitats and their inhabitants, roadside mowing negatively impacts grassland arthropod densities. In contrast to unmown refuges, all mowing techniques harmed grassland arthropods, with no significant differences between mowing equipment.

Effect of population density on the development of Mesovelia furcata (Mesoveliidae), Microvelia reticulata and Velia caprai (Veliidae) (Heteroptera: Gerromorpha)

European Journal of Entomology, 2010
Population density during nymphal development affects body size, developmental rate and wing polymorphism in semiaquatic bugs. Nymphs from crowded habitats grow faster and thus gain an advantage in the later stadia.

Comparison of development time and reproduction of typical and melanic Eurygaster integriceps (Heteroptera: Scutelleridae) under laboratory conditions [PDF]

نامه انجمن حشره‌شناسی ایران, 2008
Among the sunn pest populations, melanic phenotype of Eurygaster integriceps Puton is a distinct colour morph. A set of experiments were performed to examine possible differences between typical and melanic phenotypes of E. integriceps using overwintered
