Conversion From Natural Broad‐Leaved Forest to Conifer Plantation Increases Relative Detritus Dependency of Aculeata Communities

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
We compared the community structure of Aculeata bees and wasps in natural deciduous broadleaved forests and two coniferous plantations (Cryptomeria japonica, “Sugi” and Chamaecyparis obtusa, “Hinoki”) in southern Kyushu, Japan. Compared with natural forests, the dependence of Aculeata communities on the detritus‐based food chain increased in both ...

Habitat‐Dependent Effects of Canopy Cover on Insect Predation in a Tropical Dry Forest Landscape

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Our results reveal that arthropods, particularly chewing arthropods, were the dominant predators, and their activity was strongly influenced by both habitat type and canopy cover. Predation probability increased with canopy cover in forest plots but decreased in silvo‐pastures, highlighting an important interaction between vegetation structure and ...

Benchmarking metabarcode sequence denoisers for improved invertebrate community diversity estimates

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 15-32, January 2026.
Abstract DNA metabarcoding is fast becoming a method of choice for the inventory and monitoring of community‐level arthropod biodiversity, with growing interest in the recovery of haplotype‐level variation within species from metabarcoding reads. Denoising tools have been established as the standard for metabarcode processing, with the promise to ...

The association of Mediterranean plant species with herbivorous arthropods and its effect on pest abundance in organic vineyards

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 1, Page 369-385, January 2026.
We determined the associations of native Mediterranean plant species located around organic vineyards with species of Auchenorrhyncha and phytophagous tetranychid and tenuipalpid mites, including important vineyard pests: Jacobiasca lybica and Tetranychus urticae.
