Extrafloral nectaries on Cenchrus americanus (L.) Morrone
Agricultural &Environmental Letters, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2026.Abstract Pearl millet, Cenchrus americanus (L.) Morrone (formerly Pennisetum glaucum L.), used for food and feed, has pollen that attracts multiple insect species. In 2023, honey bees and wasps were observed foraging on or below the auricles of pearl millet in a Georgia field.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study employed ensemble species distribution models (SSDMs) to project the potential distributions of C. oleifera and these two key pollinators under current and future climate scenarios. We integrated field survey data with open biodiversity database records to simulate suitable habitats and quantify their spatiotemporal overlap.

Journal of Pollination EcologyAn experimental manipulation of ray florets in Knautia arvensis (Caprifoliaceae) carried out in 2001 originally yielded results that were hard to reconcile with a hypothesis about floral attraction.

Pollinator Dependency and Regional Climate Affect Crop Yield Development Under Climate Change
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.This study addresses the question if and how climate change, with rising temperatures and increasing risks of drought events, has affected the yield of entomophilous, that is, insect‐pollinator‐dependent, crops in the past decades. We found weaker yield increases with warming.

From lagging to leading: Increased phenological asynchrony in a Batesian mimicry complex
Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Climate change can alter species interactions by shifting phenology and species distributions. Batesian mimicry is one such interaction in which mimic protection is often assumed to depend on temporal and spatial overlap with defended models, although recent studies suggest strict synchrony may not always be required.

Diversity of Resilin Incidence in the Insect Leg
Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 6, June 2026.Resilin incidences in the insect cuticle are commonly detected by fluorescence microscopy using the property of Resilin protein matrices to emit blue light after excitation with UV light. This indirect method produces significant background signal.

European Journal of Entomology, 2012 In Europe there are only a few species of the syrphid fly Microdon, which live in the nests of various genera of ants. For most of these rare flies, details of their biology, larval behaviour and relationships with their hosts are still not yet well ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1878-1891, June 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological communities are stressed by rapid and complex anthropogenic changes, threatening the persistence of biotic interactions and ecosystem functioning. Plant–pollinator communities, for instance, undergo structural transformations as a result of land‐use change ...

The effectiveness of biodiversity offsetting for wild pollinator conservation
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.We show that even small differences in the composition of floral resources can result in significantly higher wild pollinator abundances and species richness in offset grasslands. Since our reference grasslands represent the target habitat, our findings suggest that biodiversity offsetting of semi‐natural grassland shows promise for achieving No Net ...
