A Fly in the Ointment? Non‐Target Fly Pest Benefits From Reduction in Ivermectin During Targeted Selective Treatment

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Targeted Selective Treatment (TST) can reduce the rate of resistance development in livestock gastrointestinal nematodes but can also reduce the effects of anthelmintics on non‐target organisms. Most studies of non‐target anthelmintic effects focus on beneficial species.

A High‐Resolution Method Using Individual Females to Assess the Competitiveness of Sterile Drosophila suzukii Males Under Semi‐Controlled Conditions

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
A high‐resolution, novel method to assess the sexual competitiveness of sterile mass‐reared Drosophila suzukii males is calibrated and illustrated using different laboratory and wild type strains. Isolation of individual females after semi‐controlled cage competition tests and subsequent observation of their progeny showed that sterile males from two ...

Comparative Study of Laboratory Diets for Piophila casei: Beneficial Effects of Infant Formula Supplementation

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The infant formula‐based diet (F), the whole powder milk diet (P), and dry‐cured ham (H) were evaluated for rearing Piophila casei. H accelerated development, promoted earlier reproduction, and achieved the highest demographic performance but showed practical limitations linked to substrate deterioration. F enhanced larval survival and adult longevity,

Integrating remote‐sensing and meteorological data to identify key drivers of the potential distribution of a grassland grasshopper

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
An ensemble model achieved excellent accuracy (AUC = 0.973) in predicting the potential distribution of O. decorus asiaticus. Climate (temperature & August precipitation) and vegetation type are the primary drivers defining the species' suitable habitats.

Do aphid endosymbiotic bacteria influence parasitoid searching behaviour through changes in aphid honeydew production?

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.
