Diversity and Distribution Patterns of Insects in Nigeria: A GBIF‐Based Appraisal
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Insect diversity in Nigeria is high, with 5880 species. Diversity differs between biomes. Current diversity represents ~21 of the estimated ‘true’ diversity. ABSTRACT Insects provide essential ecosystem services and are key indicators of ecosystem health.

Plant Phylogenetic History, Not Diversity, Drives Insect Biodiversity Across South Africa's Biomes
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Insects provide essential ecosystem services, but there is a concern that insect abundance is in rapid decline. Identifying trends in insect biodiversity is challenging because we lack baseline data for most biogeographic regions, and most insect species remain undescribed.

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 757-768, July 2026.Using over 416,000 occurrence records from 13 arthropod groups (6233 arthropod species), we mapped large‐scale richness patterns and identified biodiversity hotspots across the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands. Hotspot congruence among arthropod groups was low, underscoring the importance of integrative, multi‐taxon approaches for conservation ...
