Social media highlights the overlooked impact of cats on arthropods
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 460-465, March 2026.The impact of domestic cats on vertebrate biodiversity is unequivocal; however, we still know little about their effects on arthropods. By analysing over 17,000 photos and videos from social media platforms (iStock and TikTok), we documented 550 predation events of cats on arthropods.

Native insect species should be selected for classroom rearings
Insect 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.

Mantises (Insecta: Mantodea) of the southwestern part of Odesa Region (Ukraine)
The Kharkov Entomological Society GazetteIn the southwestern part of Odesa Region, 167 localities were investigated. These are mainly steppe and meadow areas with varying degrees of grazing pressure, which have been preserved along the valleys of small rivers, in the coastal strips of lagoons and lakes, along gulches, as well as upland areas in the Landscape Reserve ‘Tarutynskyi Step’.

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

Ecology 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 ...
