Native insect species should be selected for classroom rearings

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 1-10, January 2026.
Rearing insects in the school classroom can build positive attitudes towards insects among schoolchildren, which is becoming increasingly important as insect populations decline. Identified frequent use of non‐native insect species, raising environmental and ethical concerns after classroom rearing ends.

Ultrastructure of antennal sensilla of a prionine longhorn beetle, Prionoplus reticularis (White)

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 52, Issue 5, Page 636-653, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Antennal sensilla are fundamental to an insects sensory perception of its environment. In species where one sex produces pheromones for attracting mates, we can predict antennal and sensilla morphology to be sexually dimorphic. Prionoplus reticularis White (Prioninae; Cerambycidae; Coleoptera) is a large longhorn beetle exhibiting a scramble ...

Carryover Effects on Reproduction Can Buffer Against Mortality‐Driven Population Declines at Elevated Developmental Temperatures

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 11, November 2025.
We show that hotter juvenile temperatures can increase adult fertility in an emerging model insect system. These reproductive benefits may be crucial for insect populations to avoid extinction during global warming, which often reduces survival rates. Population dynamics estimated from lethal stress alone, or without considering carryover effects from ...

Integrating Plant Volatile Scents in Sustainable IPM Approaches for Fall Armyworm Control

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 9, Page 1304-1318, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Since the invasion of the fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) into new regions, studies have oriented toward low‐cost management tools and methods. This study assessed the effects of volatile scents that are naturally emitted by essential oil (EO) plants on the severity of FAW and populations of its natural ...

Exploring the Mitogenomes of Acroneuriinae: The First Report of Gene Rearrangements in Plecoptera Species and Phylogenetic Analyses of Perlidae

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
First reported gene rearrangements in plecopteran mitogenomes. The monophyly of the subfamily Acroneuriinae and the phylogenetic relationships among tribes within this subfamily are still controversial. ABSTRACT Perlidae represents one of the most diverse and ecologically important groups within the order Plecoptera.
