Seasonal Variation of Butterfly Diversity in Subtropical Urban Forests of Nepal
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.Butterflies show seasonal fluctuations in diversity and population in response to bioclimatic factors. Studying butterflies in three urban forests in the subtropical region of Nepal, we found that the diversity and community composition differed significantly across seasons, with richness and diversity peaking during the monsoon and abundance peaking ...

Insecticides alter wild and managed pollination dynamics on oil crop yield
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.Our results show that combining honey bee hives with insecticide use does not automatically enhance crop yield. Pollination outcomes are strongly scale‐ and context‐dependent, with wild pollinators providing disproportionately important services. Agricultural management should therefore prioritize integrated strategies that reduce pesticide pressure ...

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

A protracted phenology: Post‐diapause larval development of a threatened butterfly
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 859-872, July 2026.Larval survival during diapause was high; hibernaculum webs were mostly located near Succisa pratensis plants, which often retained vital leaves through winter. Post‐diapause developmental time varied strongly depending on exposure to different microclimates, being reduced by litter cover, solar radiation and a higher heat load index.

Cryptic Vocal Communication in the Proboscis Bat (Rhynchonycteris naso)
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1561, Issue 1, July 2026.Proboscis bats (Rhynchonycteris naso) balance communication and crypsis through distinct vocal strategies. Naturally selected calls are high‐frequency, short‐range, and produced during motion, reducing predator detection. In contrast, sexually selected signals are more conspicuous.
