Metabarcoding of Pollen Carried by Syrphids Reveals Novel Plant–Pollinator Interactions in a Protected Natural Area and Agricultural Sites

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Using DNA metabarcoding, this study investigates pollen transported by syrphids (Syrphidae) in the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park and agricultural sites in Northern Italy. The analysis reveals a high diversity of visited plant taxa, including previously undocumented plant–pollinator interactions.

The Parasitoid Wasp Glyptapanteles porthetriae Induces a Photoperiod‐Dependent Diapause‐Like State in Its Potential Overwintering Host Lasiocampa quercus

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We evaluated Lasiocampa quercus as an overwintering host for the koinobiont larval endoparasitoid Glyptapanteles porthetriae by exposing parasitized larvae to different environmental conditions and comparing parasitoid development with that in the primary host Lymantria dispar.

Ecosystem Services Against Illegal Immigration: The Natural Control of the Migratory Butterfly Painted Lady (Vanessa cardui) by Cotesia vestalis (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) on Organic Soybean in Ukraine

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In central Ukraine, the migratory butterfly Vanessa cardui emerged as a key pest of organic soybean during its outbreaks in 2019 and 2022. Despite early defoliation, crops recovered strongly due to high parasitism by Cotesia vestalis, reaching 100% in some fields.

Diversity of the Microbiomes in the Larval and Adult Stages of the European Cherry Fruit Fly (Rhagoletis cerasi) and Identification of Potential Biocontrol Candidate Taxa

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
First comprehensive characterization of the R. cerasi microbiome is reported. Stage‐specific variations in microbial composition are documented. Multiple bacterial entomopathogen taxa are identified as potential biocontrol candidates for R. cerasi.

Exploiting Native Biodiversity for Invasive Species Management: The Case of Exorista larvarum as a Natural Enemy of the Invasive Box Tree Moth Cydalima perspectalis

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The investigations evaluated the performance of the native parasitoid Exorista larvarum (L.) on last instar Cydalima perspectalis (Walker) larvae, using the factitious host Galleria mellonella (L.) as a control. Laboratory bioassays were conducted using no‐choice and choice (1:1 and 5:5) experimental designs.

A High‐Resolution Method Using Individual Females to Assess the Competitiveness of Sterile Drosophila suzukii Males Under Semi‐Controlled Conditions

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
A high‐resolution, novel method to assess the sexual competitiveness of sterile mass‐reared Drosophila suzukii males is calibrated and illustrated using different laboratory and wild type strains. Isolation of individual females after semi‐controlled cage competition tests and subsequent observation of their progeny showed that sterile males from two ...
