Consistent Trait Patterns in a Hyper Diverse Moth Clade Along a Western Himalayan Elevational Gradient

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study examines how Geometrid moth assemblages along a 1500‐m elevational gradient in the western Himalayas respond to temperature and air density shifts. While species diversity declines with elevation and turnover occurs from low to high elevations, no significant changes in morphological or flight traits were observed at the assemblage level ...

Genetic Basis of Cuticular Hydrocarbon Variation in the Desert Ant Cataglyphis niger

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) are a ubiquitous component of ant cuticles that are used for a wide range of chemical signaling functions, especially recognition. Here we tested for a genetic basis of CHC variation in the desert ant Cataglyphis niger. We applied a genomic mapping approach to discover associations between CHCs and 20 quantitative trait ...

Precipitation and tree biomass correlate with the diversity and functional composition of tropical rainforest cricket assemblages across climate and disturbance gradients

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 3, March 2026.
Disturbance‐driven changes in rainforest structure and environmental conditions can alter ecosystem functioning, yet the consequences for invertebrate communities – key contributors to decomposition, herbivory, and trophic interactions – are not fully understood, particularly in relation to structural changes in vegetation.

Climate Change Has Already Reshaped North American Forest Pest Dynamics: Insights From Multidecadal Process‐Based Modelling

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.
Climate change has rapidly expanded and shifted suitable climate conditions for eight major forest pests across North America, especially toward northern and higher elevation areas. Host exposure and overlap among pests are increasing, raising ecological and economic risks, and signaling accelerating future impacts under continued warming.

Potential Drivers of Successful Biocontrol: A Perspective on Parasitoids

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Parasitoids are central to classical biological control, yet predicting their long‐term effectiveness post release remains challenging. In Aotearoa New Zealand, three Microctonus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) species have been used against pest weevils, but key aspects of their biology remain poorly understood.

Forgotten Fruit, Infinite Potential: History, Genetics, Cultivation, and Future Perspectives for Feijoa sellowiana

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Feijoa sellowiana (O. Berg), known as feijoa, is a South American fruit native to southern Brazil and northeastern Uruguay, with agronomic, nutritional, and industrial potential. Once restricted to its native range, the species is now cultivated in New Zealand, Colombia, and Georgia, where breeding programs and market chains are advancing its ...
