We present a genome assembly from an individual male Lasioglossum morio (the common green furrow bee; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Halictidae). The genome sequence is 547 megabases in span.

Abstract The presence of predators can induce non‐consumptive effects on prey that result in subsequent changes to prey behaviour and defence. We investigate the interaction between top‐down non‐consumptive effects of various stages of the predator Coccinella septempunctata L.(Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) (larvae and adult) and bottom‐up effects of host ...

Floral resources were similar between dike and semi‐natural areas while invertebrate richness, diversity, and composition differed. Invertebrate community composition differed based on presence of specific flora. Pollinator abundance was twice as high in the semi‐natural habitat.

Abstract This review provides a synthesis of the available knowledge on Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging cocoa pest in northern South America. This moth was first described in 1995 in Panama, and its proliferation across the Amazon basin is currently threatening the production of cocoa in the region and may endanger the sector's sustainability. Hence,

Abstract Invasive eucalypt psyllids pose a threat to the long‐term production of eucalypts worldwide. In order to reduce their economic impact, classical biological control using Psyllaephagus species has been used successfully. The objectives of this study were to determine the host specificity and host stage preference of Psyllaephagus blastopsyllae,

Stabilizing adaptation in an invasive species: Alfalfa weevil as a case study
Comparison of thermal thresholds, fecundity and longevity across three alfalfa weevil strains (California in the United States, Hamadan in Iran, Ebro Valley in Spain) reveal significant differences in demographic parameters. Weather‐driven physiologically based demographic models (PBDMs) developed from life table data explore strain adaptation to ...

The temperature affects the impact levels of synthetic insecticides on a parasitoid wasp used in the biological control of pentatomid pests in soybean crops [PDF]
The impact of climate change has led to growing global concern about the interaction of temperature and xenobiotics in agricultural toxicological studies. Thus, for the first time, we evaluated the lethal, sublethal and transgerational effects of six insecticides used in the management of stink bug complex in soybean crops on the different life stages ...

Eusphalerum, an understudied beetle pollinator in North America, comprises over 50% of beetle specimens collected using flight‐intercept traps in forests across New Brunswick, Canada. In a study investigating its phenology, congeneric aggregation and population dynamics, we demonstrated that Eusphalerum exhibits unique phenology distinct from other ...
