Seasonal Variation of Butterfly Diversity in Subtropical Urban Forests of Nepal
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.Butterflies show seasonal fluctuations in diversity and population in response to bioclimatic factors. Studying butterflies in three urban forests in the subtropical region of Nepal, we found that the diversity and community composition differed significantly across seasons, with richness and diversity peaking during the monsoon and abundance peaking ...

, 2021 Elevational diversity patterns can reflect the responses of biodiversity to climate change spatially. We investigate the species diversity patterns of green lacewings (an important predatory group of insects) along the gradient of elevation from the ...

Trapped honey bees reduce floral visitation on milkweed flowers
Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Trapped arthropods have been shown to benefit plants in several ways, but few studies have examined the potential costs of arthropod entanglement. Milkweeds (Asclepias spp.) have an unusual pollination system that requires relatively large packets of pollen (pollinia) to become attached to the appendages of insect pollinators and be pulled ...

EntomoBrasilisForest fragments associated with agricultural areas are beneficial for maintaining species that act as natural biological controls. Lacewings are an example of organisms that contribute to this control, however, there is little information on the ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 7123-7136, July 2026.Two plant‐growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) consortia (AU8 and TX1) induced a deterrence of host plant location and oviposition behavior of Spodoptera exigua females in both susceptible and resistant cotton plants. Most of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased in PGPR‐treated plants compared to untreated plants. # indicates treatments not

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.Both flower and grass strips supported significantly higher arthropod activity than adjacent crop fields, underlining the general ecological value of field margins regardless of floral composition. The observed group‐specific responses emphasize the need for taxa‐specific analyses within heterogeneous functional groups, rather than relying solely on ...

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 693-705, July 2026.ABSTRACT Biological control in high tunnel systems can be optimised by matching predator species to seasonal environmental conditions. We evaluated the predatory efficacy of syrphid flies (Toxomerus marginatus (Say), Eupeodes americanus (Fabricius)) and lacewings (Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens), Chrysoperla rufilabris (Burmeister)) across laboratory ...
