The Field Automatic Insect Recognition-Device-A Non-Lethal Semi-Automatic Malaise Trap for Insect Biodiversity Monitoring: Proof of Concept. [PDF]
The FAIR‐Device, a novel nonlethal field tool, combines semi‐automatic image capture and AI‐based species identification to monitor insect biodiversity. In a 26‐day proof‐of‐concept evaluation, it recorded 431 individuals across diverse taxa, demonstrating potential as a cost‐effective solution for high‐resolution insect monitoring.

Stable gullies provide a suitable habitat for functional insects and reduce the threat of pests on crops in farmland of Northeast China. [PDF]
Our study indicated that stable gullies with higher plant diversity provide the best habitat for functional insects rather than forest belts and grassland in the watershed, especially during busy farming activities. The vigorous growth stage was one key period for pest control, and gully as a source of BI can significantly regulate the pests in ...
