Assessing the effects of mowing intensity on the overwintering stem‐dwelling insect community of Solidago altissima L. (Asterales: Asteraceae)

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Overwintering stem‐dwelling insects exhibit a non‐random spatial structure within individual stems and within different subsections of an urban meadowscape. Low intensity mows lead to higher survival rates of overwintering stem‐dwelling insects than no mowing and high intensity mows.

Coloration in Argia damselflies of Central Mexico responds to changes in herbaceous vegetation La coloración de caballitos del diablo del género Argia responde a cambios en la cobertura de vegetación herbácea en el Centro de México

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
The increase in urban lands and the vegetation loss implies changes in the colour of the background which in turn could cause changes in the coloration of individuals. We measured changes in body lightness of damselflies through 19 sites in Central Mexico, with a different degree of urbanisation and a different percentage of native vegetation. We found

‘Disease‐smart’ outcrossing can enhance individual fitness and increase survival via immune priming against pathogens: New approaches to strengthen genetic rescue efforts

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Our study provides a proof of concept for combining immune priming with assisted migration for insect conservation. Introducing genetically diverse, immune‐primed migrants improves both pathogen resistance and reproductive success in inbred individuals.

The molecular mechanisms of defensive‐grade organic acid biosynthesis in ground beetles

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Formic acid and methacrylic acid are the primary defensive chemicals in the pygidial gland secretions of Platynus angustatus and Pterostichus moestus, respectively. Comparative transcriptomics suggests the folate cycle and valine catabolism may be involved in the biosynthesis of formic acid and methacrylic acid, respectively.
