Unearthing Mesozoic beetles through micro‐computed tomography: A new family of Archostemata and the first representatives of Ommatidae and †Notocupes from the Crato Formation

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, July‐September 2026.
First formally described Archostemata beetles from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation are reported, representing the earliest records of the suborder from western Gondwana. Micro‐computed tomography enabled three‐dimensional reconstruction of partially exposed fossils, revealing previously hidden dorsal and ventral morphological characters relevant ...

Table_2_Expressions of Olfactory Proteins in Locust Olfactory Organs and a Palp Odorant Receptor Involved in Plant Aldehydes Detection.DOCX

open access: yes, 2018
The main chemosensory organs of locusts consisted of the antennae and the mouthparts (maxillary and labial palps), which are suggested to perform different functions.

Sensory Morphology of Geodorcus helmsi (Coleoptera: Lucanidae) and its Relevance to the Conservation of New Zealand Stag Beetles

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Insects use sensilla to detect chemical and physical stimuli, mediating behaviours such as mate finding, foraging and mechanosensory responses. The distribution and density of sensilla can be examined using scanning electron microscopy. Investigating these structures can help elucidate rarely observed behaviours (e.g. mate finding and foraging).

Fighting for Chemicals: Pharmacophagy‐Induced Contest Behaviour and Its Molecular Signatures in a Sawfly

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 8, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Elucidating the multifaceted effects of plant metabolites sequestered by animals from plants for non‐nutritional purposes, known as pharmacophagy, is fundamental to understanding the evolution of acquired chemical defences. Some herbivorous species do not only take up plant metabolites from plants but also engage in antagonistic interactions ...

A New Species of Tokoriro in the Genus Insulanoplectron Richards (Orthoptera: Rhaphidophoridae) from Rakiura/Stewart Island

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Five monotypic genera of Rhaphidophoridae have been described from remote islands located south and east of New Zealand's South Island and surrounded by ocean for at least 100 km in all directions. These genera are Novoplectron Richards, 1958 from Chatham Islands; Ischyroplectron Hutton, 1896 from Bounty Islands; Notoplectron Richards, 1964 from ...

Increasing the diversity of Sycorax Haliday, 1839 (Diptera: Psychodidae) in the Neotropical region: New species from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Four new species of Sycorax Haliday, 1839 are described: Sycorax alumna sp. nov., Sycorax catarina sp. nov., Sycorax paranaensis sp. nov., and Sycorax striga sp. nov., with the females of Sycorax striga sp. nov. bearing characteristics that suggest haematophagous behaviour.

Review and classification of Omethidae (Coleoptera: Elateroidea), with phylogenomic evidence supporting the inclusion of Telegeusinae in the family

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
This is the first phylogenomic study of Omethidae using genome skimming, sampling representatives of all subfamilies to resolve long‐standing conflicts between morphology‐ and multigene‐based hypotheses. Phylogenomic analyses recovered Omethidae sister to Artematopodidae and strongly support Telegeusinae as a subfamily of Omethidae, rejecting its ...
