Social media highlights the overlooked impact of cats on arthropods

open access: yesInsect 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.

Nutrient landscape of a cricket nymph: How dietary protein and carbohydrate shape intake, performance, and body composition in the two‐spotted cricket, Gryllus bimaculatus

open access: yesPhysiological 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
