Transfer of Potentially Toxic Metal(loid)s From Ultramafic Soils in a Tri‐Trophic Food Chain Experiment

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Potentially toxic metal(loid)s (PTMs) bioaccumulated across a plant‐herbivore‐predator food chain. Irrespective of soil concentrations, female crickets actively selected PTM‐enriched leaves, while predatory mantids showed no developmental impairment. Trophic transfer of PTMs was rather influenced more by a function of intrinsic species traits than by ...

Consistent Buzz‐Pollination Posture Suggests Division of Labour Between Dimorphic Stamens in Bredia hirsuta (Melastomataceae) on Okinawa‐Jima Island, Japan

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Bredia hirsuta, a small pollen flower, is buzz‐pollinated by Amegilla dulcifera in a posture separating ventral gripping from dorsal stigma contact. The bee grips short‐stamen ventrally, while the stigma contacts the dorsal abdomen near long‐stamen anther tips.

A Dél-Mezőföld Orthoptera együtteseinek összehasonlító elemzése

, 2010
In the Southern-Mezőföld the different sized and mosaic-like patches of various surfaces of sandy and loess grasslands, marshes and marshy fields are an lesser-known area for entomologist. There are rich Orthoptera fauna: 45 species were detected between

Occurrence of Food Chemical Contaminants in Entomophagy: Implications for Food Safety and Future Risk Assessment—A Scoping Review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Entomophagy is increasingly recognized as a sustainable alternative to conventional protein sources due to its low environmental impact. However, ensuring its safety requires careful evaluation of chemical contaminants of food safety concern.

The Value of Small Reserves for Small Animals Illustrated With a New Species of Flightless Grasshopper

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Habitat degradation drives animal extinction, but similar patterns of habitat loss and fragmentation may have very different conservation and management outcomes for different taxonomic groups. Here, we demonstrate that a new species of flightless grasshopper maintains viable populations in small native vegetation remnants (10−100 ha) in the ...

Are Species Distribution Models That Use Climate Variables Suitable to Forecast the Changing Distribution of Freshwater Organisms?

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Species distribution models can be used to identify locations with environmental conditions suitable for populations in the past, present and future. However, climate variables commonly applied in species distribution models may be unsuitable for freshwater species because their explanatory power is difficult to assess.

The Response of Terrestrial Arthropods to Natural and Anthropogenically Altered Disturbance and Stress Regimes in Riparian Zones: A Systematic Review

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Riparian zones are vital for biodiversity and are increasingly threatened by natural and human‐induced factors that disrupt their structure and function. Arthropods, as dominant terrestrial organisms in these habitats, are essential for ecosystem services, influencing connectivity between terrestrial and aquatic webs, and are sensitive ...

The influence of cutting height on arthropods in farm grassland

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1124-1139, September 2026.
Mowing at a cutting height of 13 cm slightly reduced the immediate negative impact of mowing compared to mowing at a height of 7 cm. Medium‐term effects overrode this benefit: the number of vegetation‐dwelling arthropods remained strongly reduced two and four weeks after mowing, regardless of the cutting height.

Predicting habitat suitability of selected Meloidae species and future potential refugia: A case study from inner Western Anatolia

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 1185-1202, September 2026.
Consensus habitat‐suitability maps identify current hotspots of species richness across the Inner Western Anatolian mountain systems. Late‐century projections (2081–2100) under SSP2‐4.5 and SSP5‐8.5 show range shifts and changing richness patterns, intensifying at higher elevations.
