Beautiful and Useful: Species Richness and the Ecosystem Services of Allotment Gardens in Berlin, Germany

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Intensive agriculture and urbanization have led to habitat degradation and fragmentation, reducing plant diversity and subsequently reducing pollinator abundance and richness. This paper investigates the conservation potential of green infrastructure in allotment gardens, which are a common form of urban land use.

Gene‐specific double‐stranded RNAs induce mortality in the South African mealybug Delottococcus aberiae

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 5184-5194, June 2026.
Gene‐specific double‐stranded RNAs effectively silence essential genes in the invasive citrus pest Delottococcus aberiae, leading to significant mortality through both microinjection and oral delivery. These results provide proof of concept for RNA interference‐based biopesticides as selective and sustainable tools for citrus integrated pest management.

Management of dry calcareous grasslands drives pollinator communities through availability of key forage plants

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Pollinator conservation in calcareous grasslands should prioritize enhancing local patch quality while promoting landscape heterogeneity, including woody SNH. To improve forage quality, our analytical approach supports targeted grassland management in selecting key forage plants, promoting complementary and diverse floral assemblages that support ...

Dwelling in a post‐fallout landscape: re‐shaping and sustaining life in a former evacuation zone in Fukushima Habiter après la catastrophe : redonner forme au monde et entretenir la vie dans une ancienne zone évacuée à Fukushima

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 434-455, June 2026.
This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.

Exploring marking methods for the predatory hoverfly Sphaerophoria rueppellii (Diptera: Syrphidae)

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1109-1122, June 2026.
As important pollinators and predators of aphids, hoverflies play an important role in ecosystems. This study focuses on identifying the best marking technique for the model species Sphaerophoria rueppellii that can be used to track hoverfly feeding and oviposition sites, evaluating three methods: rubidium (RbCl), fluorescein, and fluorescent dusts ...
