Mitigating light pollution impacts on arthropods based on light‐emitting diode properties

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Light pollution from artificial light at night (ALAN) is a significant environmental problem with far‐reaching consequences for ecological systems. Recent innovations in light‐emitting diode (LED) technology may offer sustainable outdoor lighting solutions, but scientific evidence is lacking. We investigated the effects of various LED lighting

Can Widely Used Methods Be Turned Into eDNA Samplers for Ground‐Dwelling Arthropods? Insights From Two Pilot Studies in West European Salt Marshes

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 2, Page 164-177, February 2026.
This study evaluates bulk and eDNA metabarcoding via suction sampling and modified pitfall traps to monitor salt marsh arthropods. Suction sampling excelled in detecting overlooked taxa, whereas pitfalls were effective for Scarabaeinae. Results underscore the importance of adapting protocols to specific taxa and habitats and highlight the effects of ...

Does the shrub layer act as an intermediary? Effects on abundance of insects and abundances of particular insect orders caught flying in the canopies of deciduous forests in Central Germany

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2020
Scientists and society are increasingly becoming aware of loss of insect biodiversity and biomass. The level of biodiversity determines the efficiency of ecological communities to capture essential resources, produce biomass, decompose and recycle ...

Vegetation biomass and landscape context influence web‐building spider dietary breadth in urban vacant lots

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 126-140, February 2026.
Spider dietary breadth and overlap increased with imperviousness, suggesting that prey and spiders are concentrating in vacant lots in these landscapes. Higher vegetation biomass, which results from reduced mowing frequency, was associated with increased dietary breadth and shared prey between spiders.

Preference of antlion and wormlion larvae (Neuroptera: Myrmeleontidae; Diptera: Vermileonidae) for substrates according to substrate particle sizes

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2015
Sand-dwelling wormlion and antlion larvae are predators with a highly specialized hunting strategy, which either construct efficient pitfall traps or bury themselves in the sand ambushing prey on the surface.

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

Ultraviolet vision in European owlflies (Neuroptera: Ascalaphidae): a critical review

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2002
This review critically examines the ecological costs and benefits of ultraviolet vision in European owlflies. On the one hand it permits the accurate pursuit of flying prey, but on the other, it limits hunting to sunny periods.
