Consistent Choice of Prey Source Habitat Across Diverse Landscapes by a Selective Insectivorous Bat

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
After analyzing the diet of the greater horseshoe bats in three distinct colonies, we identified significant spatial and temporal differences, particularly noting a stronger reliance on riparian habitats in Mediterranean areas. The species exhibits great ecological adaptability with strong plasticity in prey source habitats, shifting preferences among ...

Mothbox and Mothbot: Automated light trap and data processing system for scalable insect monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Insects represent the most diverse group of organisms on Earth and comprise the majority of known species; yet they are seldom accounted for in large‐scale biodiversity monitoring systems and conservation planning. We have developed the Mothbox—an open source automated light trap that makes insect monitoring accessible to non‐specialists and ...

Application of a novel molecular diagnostic method to examine the spatio‐temporal trends of Carcelia iliaca, a larval parasitoid of oak processionary moth (Thaumetopoea processionea)

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
The oak processionary moth is an invasive pest in the United Kingdom that threatens biodiversity and public health, with rising control costs highlighting the need for sustainable management alternatives Conservation biocontrol using the parasitoid fly Carcelia iliaca is promising but key biological data gaps hinder evidence‐based policy development.

Refuge by day, forage by night: Diel activity of vine weevil as characterised by smart monitoring

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Vine weevil activity was monitored using a Smart trap, which recorded diel refuge‐seeking behaviour. Increasing light intensity triggered refuge seeking behaviour, while lower light intensity induced forage seeking activity. Understanding vine weevil diel activity can enhance early detection, which can improve the effectiveness of integrated pest ...

The impact of artificial light at night on moths (Lepidoptera, Heterocera): A review of the literature and future research directions

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Artificial Light At Night (ALAN) is an emerging environmental issue with significant impacts on nocturnal insects, particularly nocturnal Lepidoptera. We conducted a systematic review addressing the effects of ALAN on insects, with a focus on nocturnal Lepidoptera.
