In Vitro and In Vivo Effect of Amitraz on Honey Bee Drone Sperm Quality
Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Honey bee hive infestation by the ectoparasitic mite, Varroa destructor, has been a major cause of declining populations. Treating such infestations is important for sustainability. Knowledge about the sub‐lethal effects of commonly used acaricides on drone reproductive health, particularly sperm quality, is limited. The effect of in vitro and

Influence of nano-polystyrene on cyfluthrin toxicity in honeybee Apis cerana cerana Fabricius
Ecotoxicology and Environmental SafetyPlastics and pesticides are commonly used and often coexist in the environment. As pollinating insects, honeybees are simultaneously exposed to both these toxins. However, there has been no study on the toxic effects of nano-polystyrene plastics (nanoPS)

Evolutionary implications of a deep‐time perspective on insect pollination
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant pollination by insects represents one of the most transformative and iconic ecological relationships in the natural world. Despite tens of thousands of papers, as well as numerous books, on pollination biology published over the past 200 years, most studies focused on the fossil record of pollinating insects have only been published in ...

Indigenous peoples and local community reports of climate change impacts on biodiversity
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Climate change impacts on biodiversity have been primarily studied through ecological research methods, largely ignoring other knowledge systems. Indigenous and local knowledge systems include rich observations of changes in biodiversity that can inform climate change adaptation planning and environmental stewardship.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.The caterpillars of the greater wax moth (Galleria mellonella) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) are emerging models to study innate immunity and plastic biodegradation. Both of these processes are impacted by the associations between the insect host and its gut microbiome. Although bacterial flora harbored by the larvae have been characterized, little is known

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.We investigated the compatibility of beekeeping with pollinator conservation in ‘prairie strips’ a conservation practice integrating native prairie habitat into agricultural environments. At prairie strip sites with and without a honey bee apiary, we analysed plant–bee interactions and bumble bee body conditions to determine the effect of apiaries on ...
