Acoustic Classification of Singing Insects Based on MFCC/LFCC Fusion
Applied Sciences, 2019 This work introduces a new approach for automatic identification of crickets, katydids and cicadas analyzing their acoustic signals. We propose the building of a tool to identify this biodiversity.

Plants and Insect Eggs: First Report of a Katydid Using a Fern as Host for Oviposition
New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.Ferns are the second most diverse lineage of vascular plants worldwide and are particularly abundant in tropical forests. However, the ecological significance of such remarkable diversity has been often underestimated. In this article, we report for the first time the observation of ferns, specifically Polytaenium cajenense (Desv.) Benedict ...

Orchard Management Influences Predation of Halyomorpha halys Eggs
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 3, Page 202-211, March 2026.We investigated predation of eggs of the invasive stink bug Halyomorpha halys on apple trees in conventional, organic, and extensively managed Dutch orchards. Predation exceeded 40% in extensively managed orchards but was only about 10% in conventional and organic ones. We used camera traps to reveal natural enemies that may contribute to H.

Social media highlights the overlooked impact of cats on arthropods
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 460-465, March 2026.The impact of domestic cats on vertebrate biodiversity is unequivocal; however, we still know little about their effects on arthropods. By analysing over 17,000 photos and videos from social media platforms (iStock and TikTok), we documented 550 predation events of cats on arthropods.

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 178-192, March 2026.Survival of Gryllus bimaculatus nymphs was highest on protein‐biased diets (P:C = 3.86:1), whereas growth and body mass were maximized on slightly carbohydrate‐biased diets (P:C = 1:1.47). Maximum body protein and lipid contents were attained at P:C ratios of 1.14:1 and 1:5.56, respectively. When given a food choice, G. bimaculatus nymphs self‐selected
