Protected area coverage of the full annual cycle of migratory butterflies

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effective conservation of migratory species relies on habitat protection throughout their annual cycle. Although protected areas (PAs) play a central role in conservation, their effectiveness at conserving habitats across the annual cycle of migratory species has rarely been assessed.

The evolution of the class Insecta

American Journal of Science, 1930
The subject of this paper is one which is admittedly full of difficulty, yet at the same time one of the profoundest interest, viz., the Evolution of the Insects as a Class from some ancestral type which was not an Insect, but something more primitive in its general structure.

Effects of land cover and protected areas on flying insect diversity

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Widespread insect losses are a critical global problem. Mitigating this problem requires identifying the principal drivers across different taxa and determining which insects are covered by protected areas. However, doing so is hindered by missing information on most species owing to extremely high insect diversity and difficulties in ...

DNA from museum samples of a parasitoid wasp genus (Braconidae: Syntretus) offers novel insights into host‐parasitoid interactions

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Our investigation applied genome skimming to museum specimens of Syntretus, a parasitoid wasp, due to its suspected parasitism of short‐haired bumblebee (Bombus subterraneus) queens during a reintroduction programme. We detected two clades within Syntretus, a possible consequence of host choice.
