Towards DNA metabarcoding‐based haplotype for monitoring terrestrial arthropod communities

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
The wocDNA metabarcoding includes robust sampling, wocDNA genomic extraction and library preparation. High‐throughput sequencing (HTS) followed by bioinformatic processing for quality control. The creation of a community matrix from haplotypes for ecological diversity and phylogenetic analyses.

What do we know about insect responses to global change? A review of meta‐analyses on global change drivers

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We reviewed 75 meta‐analyses examining the effects of global change stressors on insects. We found that most global change stressors harm insects, with pesticides having the highest proportion of negative effects. Global change more frequently caused harm to higher trophic levels and beneficial insects, whereas herbivores were less often harmed.

Minimising insect mortality during grassland mowing: The potential of insect chasing devices

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Insect chasing devices have a great potential to deter arthropods prior to mowing, thereby reducing mortality. The effectiveness of mechanical flushing bars is limited and depends on driving speed, vegetation structure and species composition. The blowing device is the most independent of external factors and therefore the most effective.
