One landscape does not fit all: Diverse arthropod responses to land use
Ecological Applications, Volume 35, Issue 7, October 2025.Abstract Early studies and theory suggested that complex landscapes harboring remnants of natural land should support natural enemy populations and reduce pest buildup in adjacent crops, whereas landscapes interspersed with urban land often provide alternate host plants of crop pests, facilitating pest spillover and amplifying pest pressure.

A New Species of Insect Possibly Invasive for Ornamental Plants in Romania
Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca: Horticulture, 2020 Following the periodic evaluations carried out in the parks of Timisoara (Timis, Romania) which had as main activity the monitoring of harmful insect species, we noticed an interesting species with the ability to jump, which attracted our attention.

Endless forms most hidden: katydids that masquerade as moss [PDF]
, 2017 In the cloud forests of the central range of the Colombian Andes, we discovered a species of katydid (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae) that imitates mosses to an uncanny degree and is exceedingly difficult to detect. The camouflage exhibited by this particular

Systematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 975-987, October 2025.A fossil‐calibrated phylogeny of Rhaphidophoridae revealed Australia at the centre of the radiation of the Southern Hemisphere subfamily Macropathinae, with the Australian biota consisting of at least five separate lineages. Crown‐Macropathinae originated in the Lower Cretaceous (ca.

Does habitat matter in avoiding predators among sympatric Katydid species?
Global Ecology and ConservationNatural selection, through eavesdropping predators, plays a crucial role in shaping katydid behavior. Predators use the conspicuous katydid calls for prey localization. While commonly deployed defenses are known for many katydids, the possible effects of

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2025.Abstract Managing ecologically harmful plant species requires an understanding of the impacts of complex spatial and temporal disturbances on ecological communities. Actions aimed at controlling non‐native plants can have dynamic effects on patterns of succession, with lag effects and trade‐offs possible.

Evaluating Multiple Arthropod Taxa as Indicators of Invertebrate Diversity in Old Fields [PDF]
, 2018 Biodiversity, often quantified by species richness, is commonly used to evaluate and monitor the health of ecosystems and as a tool for conservation planning. The use of one or more focal taxa as surrogates or indicators of larger taxonomic diversity can
