Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Adult Abundance and Larval Host Plant Use in the Ord River Irrigation Area, Western Australia

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 4, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) is a highly polyphagous lepidopteran pest; however, little is known about its seasonal population dynamics or larval host plant use in northern Australia. Improved understanding of the ecology of S. litura is increasingly important given the anticipated expansion of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton production in

Which One Tastes Better? Testing Distinct Baits to Evaluate Fruit‐Feeding Butterfly Assemblages (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) in a Subtropical Region

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 4, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Standardised sampling protocols are essential for improving biodiversity assessments, particularly for indicator groups such as fruit‐feeding butterflies. Although fermented banana is the most widely used bait in tropical regions, rotten fish is the best bait for catching fruit‐feeding butterflies in high‐altitude sites.

Transposable Element–Driven PIEZO Mutation Enhances Locust Flight in Plateau Hypoxia

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 57, 14 October 2026.
Why transposable elements (TEs) persisted or expanded in genomes remains a mystery. Using integrated analysis of TE macro‐ and microevolution in locusts, our results showed that thousands of TE insertions promoted widespread adaptive variation. Subfamilies of candidate adaptive TEs amplified and reshaped species‐level genomic architecture.

Integrated Transcriptomic and Physiological Analyses Reveal Disruption of Digestive Homeostasis Induced by Protease Inhibitors in Anticarsia gemmatalis Caterpillars

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 123, Issue 2, October 2026.
The peptides SKTI and GORE‐2 triggered distinct midgut responses in Anticarsia gemmatalis (Lepidoptera: Erebidae). SKTI promoted compensatory digestive and antioxidant responses, whereas GORE‐2 caused broader digestive protease repression, weaker antioxidant activation, and greater epithelial damage.

Trypsinogen Pro‐Region as a Molecular Scaffold for the Design of Competitive Peptide Inhibitors of Trypsin‐Like Proteases

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 123, Issue 2, October 2026.
Rational design of the trypsinogen pro‐region generated the peptide inhibitors GORE3, GORE4, and GORE5. Computational screening and enzyme kinetics demonstrated competitive inhibition of trypsin‐like proteases, with GORE5 showing the highest experimental potency and supporting pro‐region‐derived peptides as promising protease‐targeting molecules ...
