New Species and Distributional Synthesis of Apatelodidae (Lepidoptera: Bombycoidea) From the Brazilian Cerrado

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Brazilian Cerrado is a threatened biodiversity hotspot, but its Lepidoptera fauna remains poorly documented. Here, we provide the first comprehensive distributional synthesis of Apatelodidae in the Cerrado, integrating museum collections and verified citizen science records. We document 56 species, including five new taxa: Raoni hiprore sp.

Effects of pupal hypoxia duration and holding temperature on quality control parameters of sterile Queensland fruit fly

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8382-8391, September 2026.
Queensland fruit fly pupae tolerate hypoxia up to 2 days without compromising quality. Prolonged hypoxia, especially at 25 °C, reduces emergence and flight ability. Storage at 18 °C is recommended. Abstract BACKGROUND The sterile insect technique is used to eradicate outbreaks of Queensland fruit fly (Q‐fly) Bactrocera tryoni (Froggatt) in fruit‐fly ...

Mapping the global threat of Mythimna separata (Walker) and its economic implications for Brazil's agriculture

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 9097-9106, September 2026.
Global models identified high‐risk areas for Mythimna separata invasion, highlighting major economic vulnerability for Brazilian crops and guiding targeted prevention and management strategies. Abstract BACKGROUND Identifying high‐risk areas for the introduction of invasive alien species is particularly important for agricultural pests with a broad ...

Edible Insect Allergens: An Emerging Food Safety Challenge

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.
Allergic responses to edible insects arise via two main pathways: cross‐reactivity with homologous arthropod allergens and primary sensitization to edible insect proteins, both leading to IgE‐mediated immune activation. ABSTRACT Edible insects are increasingly promoted as sustainable protein sources; however, their allergenic potential remains a ...

Dietary differentiation of two co‐occurring common bat species (Eptesicus nilssonii and Pipistrellus pygmaeus)

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Sympatric bat species can co‐exist and avoid interspecific competition via niche differentiation e.g. diet. Detecting dietary differences can be achieved by comparing dietary niches of sympatric and allopatric populations. If dietary overlap is higher in sympatry versus allopatry, co‐occurrence may be altering the dietary niche of the species.

From individuals to networks: The role of variation in plant–pollinator communities' responses to global change

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 9, Page 1586-1597, September 2026.
This paper argues that variation among individuals—not just species differences—can shape the sensitivity, robustness and resilience of plant–pollinator communities under global change. By linking individual traits and interaction structure to network dynamics, it provides a new framework and future research directions for predicting community ...
