Non-Invaginated Wing Primordia in Holometabolous Insects: First Report From Mecoptera. [PDF]
Evol DevWe investigated wing primordium development in the scorpionfly Mavropanorpa japonica and present the first detailed histological description of a late‐forming, non‐invaginated wing primordium lacking a morphologically distinct peripodial epithelium in Mecoptera.

Molecular phylogeny of the scorpionflies Panorpidae (Insecta: Mecoptera) and chromosomal evolution
Cladistics, 2018 Panorpidae is the most species‐rich family in Mecoptera with ca. 470 species in the Northern Hemisphere. However, the intergeneric phylogenetic relationships of Panorpidae remain unsatisfactorily resolved to date.

The Field Automatic Insect Recognition-Device-A Non-Lethal Semi-Automatic Malaise Trap for Insect Biodiversity Monitoring: Proof of Concept. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe 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]
Ecol EvolOur 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 ...

Black-throated blue warblers (Setophaga caerulescens) exhibit diet flexibility and track seasonal changes in insect availability. [PDF]
Ecol EvolChanges in seasonality have extended the breeding window for migratory birds in North America with earlier springs and later autumns that affect insect availability. DNA metabarcoding and insect surveys revealed that migratory, insectivorous black‐throated blue warblers exhibit diet flexibility in response to seasonal pulses in arthropod prey ...

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 21, Page 5785-5797, November 2023., 2023 Abstract Using recently published chromosome‐length genome assemblies of two damselfly species, Ischnura elegans and Platycnemis pennipes, and two dragonfly species, Pantala flavescens and Tanypteryx hageni, we demonstrate that the autosomes of Odonata have undergone few fission, fusion, or inversion events, despite 250 million years of separation.

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 741-754, November 2022., 2022 Abstract The taxonomic status of Leptopsyllidae family has remained controversial over the years. Thus, some entomologists placed this group of fleas within Ceratophyllidae family, considering it at level of Leptopsyllinae subfamily or even appearing as a paraphyletic group within Siphonaptera phylogeny. This fact is emphasized by the lack of molecular

The ecological function of insect egg micropyles
Functional Ecology, Volume 36, Issue 5, Page 1113-1123, May 2022., 2022 Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Insect egg micropyles are openings through the chorion allowing sperm entry for fertilisation. Micropyles are diverse structures showing remarkable variation in number, spatial arrangement and physical structure across extant insect orders.
