A roadmap to key traits of invasive Drosophilidae

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1805-1829, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have intensified in recent decades, mostly driven by international trade and travel, raising significant concerns, particularly regarding insect pests. Once non‐native species establish, they can disrupt natural ecosystem stability, undermine agroecosystem sustainability and cause substantial economic losses.

Temognatha sundholmi Lang sp. nov. (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), a New Species From the Great Victoria Desert and New Host Plants: An Investigation Using DNA Barcoding With Implications for Taxonomy of Temognatha and Melobasis

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A new species of jewel beetle, Temognatha sundholmi Lang, sp. nov., is described from the Great Victoria Desert in South Australia. A broader investigation, using mtDNA COI ‘barcode’ sequences from 178 specimens representing 54 buprestid species, places the new species with Temognatha flavocincta (Gory & Laporte, 1838) in the informal ...

A review on true dung beetles' evolutionary and ecological responses to temperature and impacts on ecosystem functions

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 621-638, August 2026.
True dung beetles are a speciose group of ecosystem engineers that play key roles as detritivores in natural and agricultural landscapes. Scarabaeine beetles show strong thermal plasticity and there is increasing evidence of rapid evolutionary divergence in response to temperature across ecological and evolutionary timescales, with likely consequences ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 7, Page 990-1015, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Observing the invisible: X‐ray CT for plant–microbe interactions

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 959-966, August 2026.
Utility of X‐ray computed tomography (X‐ray CT) for visualising belowground plant interactions between multiple spatial scales and focal planes. Summary Plant–microbe interactions are inherently spatial, yet the physical structure of the soil and rhizosphere is rarely treated as a mechanistic variable in experimental design.
