Managing Insect Feet: Biomimetics of Plant Wax Based Non-Toxic Insect Repellents

open access: yes, 2023
Insects play a crucial role in our lives. They act as pollinators and sources of nutrition for people and animals alike, thus forming a backbone of virtually all ecosystems on land.

Storying Multispecies‐Life‐and‐Death: Becoming‐Grief‐Able in Educational Spaces for Post‐Necrocene Futures

open access: yesChildren &Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We situate this article from/with/in the Necrocene, a geological period marked by the systematic production of human and more‐than‐human death to an extent that ecological destruction, extinction, loss and harm have become a structural feature of modern life.

A global assessment of animal community responses to agricultural management

open access: yesConservation 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

open access: yesEntomologia 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 ...

Contact and Spatial Repellency of Natural and Synthetic Repellents Toward Dermestes maculatus (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) Beetle Larvae

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology
Dermestes maculatus, commonly known as the hide beetle, is a species of dermestid beetle notorious for its destructive behavior, making it a threat to wool fabrics, leather, and other animal-based materials often found in museum collections.

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

open access: yesEntomologia 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.

Rearing Istocheta aldrichi (Diptera: Tachinidae) From Field‐Collected Japanese Beetles (Popillia japonica): 2. Methods to Improve Overwintering, Adult Emergence and Longevity

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Successful rearing of Istocheta aldrichi, a tachinid parasitoid of invasive Japanese beetle, depended on conditions before, during, and after overwintering. Longer cold exposure increased adult emergence and accelerated post‐diapause development. Early transfer of puparia to cool conditions improved survival, while spring temperature manipulation ...
