Supplementing beef cattle diets with brown seaweed affects coprophagous beetles' dung use

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Supplementing beef cattle diets with brown seaweed reduced the attractiveness of dung for a common dung beetle (Onthophagus nuchicornis). Dietary supplementation with brown seaweed appeared to reduce the proportion of major males in the F1 generation.

Thinking through payment in fieldwork

American Ethnologist, EarlyView.
Abstract Ethnographic research has long illuminated diverse economic relations. Yet ethnographers have said little about an economic relation that they themselves often rely on: payment in fieldwork. Indeed, the particularities of monetary exchange between ethnographers and their interlocutors often remain hidden—or taboo.

Partial amputation regrowth of P4 distal digit in an eastern grey kangaroo (Macropus giganteus): a case report

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
This case report describes distal regrowth of the fourth hind digit (P4) following traumatic autoamputation in a young adult eastern grey kangaroo (Macropus giganteus). Injury to P4 is generally considered to carry a poor prognosis due to its critical role in weight‐bearing and propulsion during hopping.

A global assessment of animal community responses to agricultural management

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Transitions in agricultural management through crop and noncrop diversification on intensively managed croplands or pastures have benefited biodiversity. However, the extent to which agricultural management benefits species communities present in undisturbed ecosystems remains largely unclear.

Attractiveness of Melon Genotypes to Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) Mediated by Foliar Morphological and Biochemical Traits

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
This study identifies melon genotypes resistant to Bemisia tabaci by integrating morphological and biochemical leaf traits. Using free‐choice and no‐choice assays, we demonstrate that resistance is primarily mediated by antixenosis. Genotypes CNPH 11‐1071‐43, CNPH 06‐1047‐343, CNPH 13‐1076, and BG MEL 16 significantly reduced whitefly settling and ...

Clogmia albipunctata Larvae Influence the Odour Dynamics of Rotting Organic Matter

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Drain flies live in organic waste. We investigated how drain fly larvae influence the unpleasant smells produced by sewage sludge and rotting nettle. Although the perception of these smells did not change significantly according to the public, chemical analyses showed that sewage sludge with drain fly larvae yielded a different composition of odors ...

Rearing Istocheta aldrichi (Diptera: Tachinidae) From Field‐Collected Japanese Beetles (Popillia japonica): 1. Methods to Improve Insect Collection and Parasitoid Pupariation

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We describe methods for collecting and rearing the tachinid parasitoid Istocheta aldrichi from parasitized Japanese beetle adults. Hosts can be collected by hand and reared in the laboratory, or by using modified trap containers with added plant material and substrate to provide suitable conditions for I.
