Identifying Key Biodiversity Areas Based on Distinct Genetic Diversity

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are sites that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity. Distinct genetic diversity has been introduced as one of the metrics to estimate whether a site holds a threshold proportion of a species' global genetic diversity during the KBA identification process.

Recent technological developments allow for passive acoustic monitoring of Orthoptera (grasshoppers and crickets) in research and conservation across a broad range of temporal and spatial scales

Basic and Applied Ecology
Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) uses stationary recorders to detect wildlife in field conditions. The method has long been valuable for surveying certain species groups, especially bats.

A new cricket genus and first record of Neometrypini (Orthoptera: Oecanthidae) in the Caatinga, Brazil

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Biological collections are fundamental resources for biodiversity research, although they remain underutilised in many taxonomic efforts. In this study, we examine specimens deposited in the Entomological Collection of the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo (MZSP) to describe a new genus and species of cricket belonging to the ...

Combined heat and drought affect the abundance, composition and diversity of subalpine surface‐active soil arthropod communities

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 98-112, February 2026.
We applied factorial soil warming and moisture reduction treatments directly in the field in the Australian subalpine to assess changes to surface‐active soil arthropod abundance, diversity and community composition. After identifying nearly 50,000 specimens to order, we found a stronger effect of sampling month than treatment.

Of walls and floors: how physical structures affect mating song detection in stridulating orthopterans

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 141-152, February 2026.
Schematic representation of the experimental settings for one field type. Each setting was assigned one of the three treatments (i.e., walls, floors, or control). Each treatment contained an AudioMoth™ (circle), either positioned close to the ground (5 cm) or elevated (60 cm), acting as a receiver organism. Abstract Sensory ecology theory proposes that
