From mainland to islands: the evolution of resistance and tolerance to herbivory in long‐lived oaks

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Island biogeography theory predicts that island plants should exhibit reduced defences compared with their mainland relatives due to relaxed herbivory pressure. However, growing empirical evidence challenges this prediction, revealing substantial variation among systems, plant lineages and defence types.

Rainforest conversion to monoculture plantations restructures functional communities of braconid parasitoid wasps

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
The conversion of rainforests into rubber and oil palm plantations drives biodiversity loss in Southeast Asia. Parasitoid wasps are highly diverse and play an essential role in ecosystems by regulating herbivore populations. Declines in density and diversity of parasitoid wasps, after land‐use change is well‐documented, but potential functional losses ...

Genomic Structure Predicts Granulovirus Resistance Without a Detectable Life‐History Trade‐Off in Plodia interpunctella

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 19, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the genetic architecture of pathogen resistance and its relationship to host life‐history traits is a fundamental problem in evolutionary biology, yet the conditions under which resistance costs manifest as detectable trade‐offs remain poorly understood.

Phylogenetic Trends in the Dissymmetrisation of Genitalia in Hadenini (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae)

Diversity
The external genital appendages of Noctuidae represent correlated–coevolved elements of a complex structure. The pathways of changes are delimited by some constraints, and they are parallelly evolved in different phyletic lines. Asymmetrical male external genitalia were found in Hadenini, in Polia and its closely related genera, but also in Anarta (s ...

Allopatric cryptic diversity in the alpine species complex Phtheochroa frigidana s. lat. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

European Journal of Taxonomy, 2017
Allopatric alpine populations of Phtheochroa frigidana s. lat. (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae) are reviewed. In addition to traditional diagnostic characters of external morphology, the genitalia structures of everted vesicae in male genitalia and DNA ...

Genetic structure, spectral characteristics and evolutionary history of butterflies in the European Polyommatus eros species group (Lepidoptera, Lycaenidae)

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, October‐December 2026.
The genetic results, microbial (Wolbachia) screening and wing spectral characteristics suggested a close relationship between European taxa of the Polyommatus eros species group. Two lineages appear to be undergoing accelerated differentiation, in particular the endangered taxon menelaos, which is differentiated in both genetic and wing spectral ...
