Annual flower strips under the ‘Sweden Blossom’ initiative – how do they perform for pollinators, natural enemies and herbivores?

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 458-470, August 2026.
Pollinator‐targeted annual flower strips increase abundances of pollinators but also natural enemies and herbivores. Natural enemies and herbivores disperse in a taxon‐specific manner into nearby crops. Pest control by ground‐dwellers slightly increases in crop areas near the flower strips.

Development and Reproduction of Nesidiocoris tenuis Reuter (Heteroptera: Miridae): The Effect of Temperature, Origin and Food

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 842-850, August 2026.
Nymphal development took longer at 25°C than 30°C, and the Greek N. tenuis population developed more slowly than the commercial population. Nymphs clearly preferred E. kuehniella eggs over Artemia sp. cysts when both were offered equally. Egg production increased at 30°C, while female longevity declined.

Ecosystem Services Against Illegal Immigration: The Natural Control of the Migratory Butterfly Painted Lady (Vanessa cardui) by Cotesia vestalis (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) on Organic Soybean in Ukraine

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 922-932, August 2026.
In central Ukraine, the migratory butterfly Vanessa cardui emerged as a key pest of organic soybean during its outbreaks in 2019 and 2022. Despite early defoliation, crops recovered strongly due to high parasitism by Cotesia vestalis, reaching 100% in some fields.

Prey Range and Voracity of Main Insect Natural Enemies of Pests in Corsican Clementine Orchards

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 851-862, August 2026.
To assess the biocontrol potential on the main arthropod pests of clementine orchards in Corsica, laboratory experiments were carried out using five potential predators. Their prey range and voracity were tested on three pest species. Then, a global predation rate index was calculated at the scale of the entire community of insect predators.

Ecological and functional effects of habitat conversion and seasons on fruit‐feeding butterfly assemblages in tropical dry forests Efeitos ecológicos e funcionais da conversão do habitat e da sazonalidade sobre assembleias de borboletas frugívoras em florestas tropicais secas

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 760-773, August 2026.
Land‐use change and seasonality shape the taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic diversity of fruit‐feeding butterflies in tropical dry forests. Pastures reduce phylogenetic diversity and increase wing fluctuating asymmetry, while taxonomic and functional diversity is greater in the wet season than in the dry season.
