Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Absolute radiocarbon dating offers high precision, but its application to historical contexts, such as the Inca civilization, requires a rigorous methodological approach. This research examines methods to enhance chronological accuracy through a case study of artifacts from the Llullaillaco Capacocha sacrifice.

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

Low Rates of Kaolin in Different Application Periods Reduce Diaphorina citri Population and Huanglongbing Incidence in Commercial Citrus Orchards

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Huanglongbing (HLB) is the most destructive citrus disease worldwide, and it has been disseminated by the Asian citrus psyllid Diaphorina citri, the vector of the causing agent Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. Although processed kaolin reduces psyllid infestation, long‐term field data from commercial orchards are limited.
