Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.True dung beetles are a speciose group of ecosystem engineers that play key roles as detritivores in natural and agricultural landscapes. Scarabaeine beetles show strong thermal plasticity and there is increasing evidence of rapid evolutionary divergence in response to temperature across ecological and evolutionary timescales, with likely consequences ...

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Lepidoptera are highly sensitive to changes in their surroundings, making them excellent indicators of ecosystem health; however, surveying adult butterflies of certain species presents challenges. Nocturnal surveying of larvae and pupae using ultraviolet light (UV) is gaining popularity as a simple, inexpensive, and non‐invasive method.

The sorting nexin Snx21 promotes flotillin‐mediated endocytosis
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.In this study, we describe a novel function of the previously uncharacterized Snx21 protein as a specific positive regulator of flotillin‐mediated endocytic trafficking. Snx21 is recruited to endosomal membranes via binding to PI(3)P, and it colocalizes with flotillins on the surface of late endosomes.

Expansion of invasive carabids across elevation and habitats on sub‐Antarctic South Georgia
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Two introduced carabid species have continued to expand their ranges on the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia over the past 10–15 years. The species have colonised inland valleys and are present across habitats but are more abundant in those with high vegetation cover. N‐mixture models revealed the optimal sampling method, intensity and habitat for
