Diversity investigation by application of DNA barcoding: A case study of lepidopteran insects in Xinjiang wild fruit forests, China. [PDF]
We investigate the species diversity of lepidopteran insects in Xinjiang wild fruit forests to establish insect community monitoring systems as well as determine the local species pool, by testing the applicability of DNA barcoding based on mtDNA COI gene for accurate and rapid identification of insect species.

Using eDNA metabarcoding to understand the effect of fire on the diet of small mammals in a woodland ecosystem. [PDF]
Information regarding diet changes over time after disturbance is lacking for many animals living in habitats prone to disturbances such as fires. DNA metabarcoding is a versatile molecular method that allows simultaneous characterization of many biotas using taxonomically informative barcode regions.

Abstract Larval feeding by the moth genus Ogmograptis (Bucculatricidae: Lepidoptera) creates one of the most iconic features of the Australian bush—the ‘scribbles’ found on smooth‐barked Eucalyptus. The taxonomic history of Ogmograptis has been challenging, with members of the genus being initially described in four different genera representing three ...

Maintaining understory vegetation in oil palm plantations supports higher assassin bug numbers
Reduced understory vegetation complexity in oil palm plantations leads to a significant drop off in numbers of assassin bugs, which are major pest control agents within the system. This suggests that maintaining understory vegetation in oil palm has the potential to boost both biodiversity and pest control.
