Attraction of Astylus variegatus (Germ.) (Coleoptera: Melyridae) by volatile floral attractants Atração de Astylus variegatus (Germ.) (Coleoptera: Melyridae) por atraentes florais voláteis

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2007
The beetle Astylus variegatus (Germ.) (Coleoptera: Melyridae) is frequently found in flowers feeding on pollen. Responses of A. variegatus to volatile floral attractants were studied in common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) fields.

Foveapeltis gen. nov., an unusual cleroid genus with large hypomeral cavities from mid-Cretaceous amber (Coleoptera: Cleroidea). [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Deciphering the systematic positions of Mesozoic trogossitid‐like beetles is challenging. Here, we describe and illustrate a new trogossitid‐like lineage from mid‐Cretaceous Kachin amber, Foveapeltis rutai gen. et sp. nov. Foveapeltis stands out within the Cleroidea due to the presence of a significant large cavity on each hypomeron.

Same forest, different story: Beetle community responses to non‐native tree species depend on the vertical stratum

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Our findings emphasize the importance of integrating vertical stratification into biodiversity monitoring for a comprehensive understanding of the ecological impacts of climate‐adapted forest management with non‐native tree species. Promoting mixed stands can mitigate negative biodiversity impacts of non‐native tree species and support the maintenance ...

Preliminary Functional Group Patterns of Arthropods in a Maize Field and Adjacent Cultivated Refuge Strip in South Africa

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural intensification is a major driver of global arthropod declines. Habitat management strategies, such as cultivated refuge strips (CRS), can counteract these effects by enhancing biodiversity, promoting conservation biological control and improving agroecosystem resilience.

Meta‐analysis on effects of Bt‐maize on nontarget invertebrates – Data transportability across continents

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 365-376, January 2026.
Maize varieties producing insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) have become an important component of integrated pest management worldwide. For regulatory approval of such plants, risks to the environment need to be assessed. To make such assessments less expensive and time‐consuming, conclusions drawn from data collected in one region

Innovative Pest Management: Synthesis and Field Trials of Four Pheromones for Controlling Astylus variegatus (Coleoptera: Melyridae) in Soybean Crops

open access: yesEntomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Soybeans and corn are the primary agricultural commodities in Brazil, both of which are significantly impacted by various pests, leading to substantial crop losses. Notably, coleopteran and lepidopteran pests pose considerable challenges, as they have developed resistance to increasingly toxic chemical controls.
