A loop‐mediated isothermal amplification assay to detect insect‐associated Serratia spp. in the critically endangered insect Dryococelus australis

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Inclusion of a novel sample cleanup step prior to extraction of bacterial DNA from insect frass enhanced rates of bacterial cell recovery and removed insect and plant cells. Development of a robust LAMP assay allowed detection of insect‐associated members of the Serratia marcescens complex in frass from live insects. Results from the LAMP assay applied

Identifying conservation hotspots and assessing species commonness and rarity: Baseline arthropod diversity in German nature reserves via national Malaise trap monitoring

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Conducted a year‐long Malaise trap monitoring study across Germany, revealing 14,445 OTUs, including 8,589 assigned species, highlighting extensive small‐scale and largely undescribed diversity. Identified 17 invasive species, five of which are new records for Germany, underscoring the need for continuous monitoring to manage invasive species ...

Leveraging Biodiversity Net Gain to address invertebrate declines in England

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) is a new approach to infrastructural development in England, mandating that developers achieve a 10% BNG by enhancing and creating habitats. As currently implemented, BNG risks creating smaller, homogeneous, structurally simple and poorly connected habitats.
