Influence of Larval Diet and Adult Age on the Chemical Composition of Female Pheromone Glands of Copitarsia decolora (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae): Implications for Semiochemical-Based Crop Protection

Agriculture
Copitarsia decolora (Guenée) is a polyphagous pest of significant agricultural importance in the Americas, yet its nutritional and pheromone-related variations remain to be understood.

Spectral response of guava leaves under infestation by Costalimaita ferruginea (coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Coccinellidae (Coleoptera), Miridae (Hemiptera), Hemerobiidae (Neuroptera), Pentatomidae (Hemiptera), Anystidae (Acari), Erythraeidae (Acari) and spiders (Araneidae, Oxyopidae and Salticidae) fed on the invasive paropsine leaf beetles in Marlborough, New Zealand.

Pathogens That Rewrite the Rules: Ascoviruses, Elegant Manipulators of Cell Death Pathways and Architects of the Extracellular Viral Paradigm

Pathogens
Ascoviruses (AVs) are obligate intracellular pathogens that target the larval and pupal stages of lepidopteran insects, specifically moth caterpillars.

Role of freshwater availability and terrestrial land‐cover change in the distribution of a declining, terrestrial, insectivorous bird

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Insectivorous, Afro‐Palearctic migrant birds provide cross‐border ecosystem services, but many are declining rapidly. The complex life cycle of migrant birds makes their conservation difficult, but understanding where they spend time during the breeding season can help indicate where those actions will be most effective.

Competitive Interactions Between Generalist Predators and Their Effects on Shared and Non‐Shared Pests in a Greenhouse Crop

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

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

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
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.

A New Experimental Setup to Study the Olfactory Behaviour of Trichogramma Egg Parasitoids

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We developed an experimental setup to assess odor‐induced egg‐laying behavior in tiny egg‐parasitoid wasps. This Y‐shaped olfactometer, coupled with an AI‐based image‐recognition model, automatically quantifies egg parasitism by Trichogramma wasps. Olfactory‐driven egg‐laying preferences were analyzed using Bayesian inference.

Impact of Host and Food Availability on Life‐History Traits in Six Egg Parasitoid Species of the Genus Trichogramma

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In this study we measured the impact of access to sugar and hosts on the longevity and fecundity of six Trichogramma species: T. cacoeciae, T. chilonis, T. minutum, T. leptoparameron, T. pintoi and T. sibericum. The impact of food differed among species, but there was a general tendency of increased life expectancy and potential fecundity with sugar ...

Comparative Toxicity of Bordeaux Mixture by Ingestion and Cuticular Contact Under Climate Change Conditions on Trichogramma cordubensis

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In the face of environmental contamination to copper, mainly resulting from frequent copper‐based fungicide applications, it is crucial to understand the side effects of these pesticides on non‐target organisms to improve pest management. Trichogramma cordubensis, used as a biological control agent against grape berry moths in vineyards, shows strongly
