Unveiling Wasps as Potential Pollinators: Floral Traits and Wasp Sociality Intensify Network Centrality in a Highly Diverse Tropical Ecosystem

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wasps, members of over 90 hymenopteran families, exhibit diverse behaviours, including pollination, predation and parasitism. While wasps are known pollinators in specialised systems, such as the intricate mutualism of fig trees and the deceptive pollination of certain orchids, they have historically been considered ineffective pollinators ...

The Hidden Diptera Diversity in Aristolochia Trap‐Flowers: Revealing the Identity of Pollinators Through Taxonomic Knowledge

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although Diptera is one of the most diverse insect orders with a high potential for pollinating plants, it remains poorly studied and neglected. This is partly due to limited taxonomic efforts in species identification. For instance, despite being primary pollinators of trap flowers, species‐level identification in these systems remains scarce.

Narrow, Open Canopy Architecture Enables More Effective Management of Mango Scale, Aulacaspis tubercularis Newstead in Mango Orchards

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pest management in horticultural crops must become more efficient, capitalising on non‐chemical means of pest reduction. In mango (Mangifera Indica), the development of highly productive orchard and canopy management systems offers a potential means to reduce pressure and damage from economically important pests such as mango scale (Aulacaspis
