A NEW MEALYBUG PARASITE (HYMENOPTERA: SCELIONIDAE) [PDF]
The Canadian Entomologist, 1939 The purpose of this paper is to provide a name for an undescribed species of the platygasterine genus Allotropa which has been encountered in Canada as a parasite of the mealybug Phenacoccus aceris (Sign.). Brief notes are also given on the single previously known Nearctic species of Allotropa and on another species which was erroneously described in ...

Reduced fertilization regimes could boost biocontrol service without reducing crop yield
Insect Science, EarlyView.Fertilization level influences pest control effectiveness in tomato crops. High fertilization increases plant growth and aphid density but reduces the performance of the parasitoid Aphidius ervi. In contrast, the predator Adalia bipunctata maintains consistent aphid suppression regardless of fertilization regime.

Accuracy of occurrence and abundance estimates from insect metabarcoding
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract DNA metabarcoding—high‐throughput sequencing of barcode regions from bulk samples—has become a key tool for insect biodiversity assessment. Yet, how methodological choices affect the accuracy of metabarcoding data remains insufficiently explored. In this paper, we ask: (1) How does the lysis method (non‐destructive lysis vs.
