Automatic diagnosis of agromyzid leafminer damage levels using leaf images captured by AR glasses
Agromyzid leafminers cause significant economic losses in both vegetable and horticultural crops, and precise assessments of pesticide needs must be based on the extent of leaf damage.

High-Throughput DNA Barcoding Reveals Multi-Trophic Networks of Plants, Leafminers and Parasitoids in a Tropical Dry Forest. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Tropical dry forests host highly diverse insect communities and complex trophic interactions, yet these networks remain difficult to resolve using conventional molecular or rearing‐based approaches. Here, we integrate long‐read DNA barcoding, non‐target sequence co‐amplification, and host plant taxonomy to reconstruct tri‐trophic interactions ...

Selective leaf surface defenses: trichomes trap herbivorous leafminers but spare parasitoid wasps. [PDF]
Hooked trichomes on kidney bean leaves selectively entrap leafminer flies but rarely affect parasitoid wasps. This morphological barrier enables pest suppression with minimal impact on beneficial insects, offering insights for breeding pest‐resistant cultivars compatible with biological control. Abstract BACKGROUND Leafminers [e.g., Liriomyza trifolii (

Thermal Stress Has Size-Dependent but Not Sex-Specific Effects on Mortality in an Insect Model. [PDF]
Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of heatwaves, posing a major risk to animal populations. We exposed male and female burying beetles of a wide range of body sizes to a simulated heatwave and found that heat stress increased mortality. Smaller individuals were especially vulnerable, but mortality did not differ between the sexes.

The Cassidinae beetles of Longnan County (Jiangxi, China): overview and community composition [PDF]
There are few reports on the community composition and diversity pattern of the Cassidinae species of China. Compared to the neighbouring provinces of Guangdong, Fujian and Zhejiang, the Cassidinae richness in Jiangxi Province is under-reported.

EFFECT OF FABA BEAN – CEREALS INTERCROPPING AND NITROGEN FERTILIZATION ON THE INFESTATION BY THE LEAFMINER Liriomyza trifolii (BURGESS) ON FABA BEAN PLANTS. [PDF]
Field experiments were conducted at Kafr El-Sheikh, Egypt over two winter seasons, 2006/07 and 2007/08, to evaluate the effect of faba bean-cereals intercropping and nitrogen fertilization on leafminer, Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) infestation on two ...
