Nest boxes as a recovery tool for hollow‐using mammals following fire
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Tree hollows provide crucial habitat for vertebrate species globally, but their decline—particularly following habitat disturbances—has led to the increased use of nest boxes in conservation efforts. In our study, we deployed 54 nest boxes across burnt and unburnt sites after the 2019–2020 Australian megafires and monitored arboreal mammal activity ...

Socio‐psychological determinants of beekeeper conflict with bee‐eaters
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.This study investigates factors influencing beekeepers’ use of lethal control against native bee‐eaters in Iran using the theory of planned behavior. Experience, social norms, intentions, and economic dependence significantly predicted using lethal control methods.

Knowledge, perceptions, and barriers influence public actions to help bees in Toronto, Canada
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Abstract Despite the enthusiasm surrounding bees, the public's current knowledge is sourced from the non‐native honey bee whose life history differs from many endemic North American species. Ascertaining the public's understandings and perceptions of bees is essential to implementing publicly supported conservation initiatives that may benefit bee ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.We developed and field‐validated a fully automated trap for Cydia pomonella monitoring, combining a camera with a YOLOv8 object‐detection model for remote insect identification. In controlled laboratory validation, the model showed strong performance (precision 0.77, recall 0.83), with moderate reductions under field conditions. Across six experiments,

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.First and third instar Chrysoperla externa showed efficient predatory capacity at low R. indica density, but second instar C. externa exhibits a density‐dependent predatory ability. The lacewing C. externa shows promise as a biocontrol agent for R. indica in coconut because it consumed 8362 R. indica females across all its larval instars.

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Yeasts that specialize in flower nectar play an important role in pollination ecology. Metschnikowia reukaufii and Metschnikowia koreensis were the most prevalent nectar yeasts found in our field sites. Bee pollinators exhibited different behavioural responses to nectar yeasts in field experiments. Bees visited more flowers with M.

The Acts of Eadburg: drypoint additions to Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Selden Supra 30
Early Medieval Europe, EarlyView.In 1913, two drypoint additions were identified in Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Selden Supra 30 (SS30), an eighth‐century Southumbrian copy of the Acts of the Apostles. It was suggested that these additions, cut into the membrane of p. 47, were abbreviations of the Old English female name, Eadburg. Just over a century later, many more drypoint markings
