Stabilizing adaptation in an invasive species: Alfalfa weevil as a case study

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Comparison of thermal thresholds, fecundity and longevity across three alfalfa weevil strains (California in the United States, Hamadan in Iran, Ebro Valley in Spain) reveal significant differences in demographic parameters. Weather‐driven physiologically based demographic models (PBDMs) developed from life table data explore strain adaptation to ...

Cossid moths (Lepidoptera: Cossidae) as pests of woody plants – A review

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Cossidae is a worldwide family of macro‐moths popularly known as carpenter moths due to the larval habit of boring in the wood of living plants. This review compiles current knowledge on the characteristics, diversity and bionomy of cossid moths as well as the damage they cause on woody plants.

Determinants of mating success in a lek‐mating species

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Abstract Leks are male‐biased aggregations formed for mating, where sperm is the only resource acquired by visiting females. One of the many advantages of leks is the possibility to efficiently assess the quality of potential mates by comparing aggregated individuals of the same sex with one another. When direct mate choice occurs in a lekking species,

Climate‐specific dynamics of fall armyworm on maize: Implications for pest monitoring and management

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
FAW moth captures were higher in the Sudanese zone than the Guinean zone, peaking during the major rainy season, while the Guinean zone had more captures in the dry season. In the Guinean zone, plant damage correlated with adult moth captures and larval densities, whereas no such correlation was found in the Sudanese zone or at different maize growth ...
