Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Aim To describe and compare the diets of an Arctic‐breeding shorebird, the Red Knot (Calidris canutus), across three geographically distinct breeding sites. We aimed to document the dietary patterns and identify key prey groups that characterise each population's foraging ecology.

Effects of flower patch additions and urbanisation on cavity‐nesting bees and wasps
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.Urbanisation can negatively affect cavity‐nesting bees and wasps, yet common conservation interventions such as flower patches and artificial nests lack strong empirical support. In a 2‐year experiment across urban allotments spanning an urbanisation gradient, we found no effect of added floral resources on nest uptake, while hymenopteran abundance ...

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.We compared the community structure of Aculeata bees and wasps in natural deciduous broadleaved forests and two coniferous plantations (Cryptomeria japonica, “Sugi” and Chamaecyparis obtusa, “Hinoki”) in southern Kyushu, Japan. Compared with natural forests, the dependence of Aculeata communities on the detritus‐based food chain increased in both ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 198-210, January 2026.Using extensive Malaise trapping, we collected a high richness of Pimplinae (86 species, 5892 individuals) in habitat types across a successional gradient. We found higher richness in forest than in nearby farmland, highlighting the importance of tropical forest in conserving parasitoid wasp richness.

Ecosystem services provided by spiders
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2217-2236, December 2025.ABSTRACT Spiders, ubiquitous and abundant predators in terrestrial ecosystems, often are the subjects of an unjust negative perception. However, these remarkable creatures stand as unsung heroes within our ecosystems, contributing a multitude of ecosystem services critical to human well‐being.
