Synergistic attraction: Development and field evaluation of a multicomponent lure for Zeugodacus cucurbitae based on host‐plant volatiles and gut bacterium‐derived volatiles

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6919-6930, July 2026.
The newly developed ternary blend was validated in field trials and proved highly effective in attracting both male and female Zeugodacus cucurbitae. Abstract BACKGROUND Zeugodacus cucurbitae is a global quarantine pest. Management of this pest relies heavily on chemical insecticides, which impose substantial environmental burdens. Male‐specific lures [

Cadaveric Study of the Juvenile Grey Heron's (Ardea cinerea) Nasal Cavity and Associated Structures Through Computed Tomography and Anatomical Sections

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
This study provides the first comprehensive anatomical and CT characterization of the nasal cavity of the grey heron, enabling the identification of its major components and spatial organization. Correlative evaluation of multiplanar CT images with anatomical sections proved highly effective for delineating landmarks, offering a reference for clinical ...

Economic and Biological Evaluation of Pheromone Trap Types for Western Bean Cutworm, Striacosta albicosta, Monitoring in Dry Edible Bean Fields

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 750-763, July 2026.
Pheromone trap use for monitoring Striacosta albicosta in dry edible beans was evaluated across multiple trap designs, lure replacement intervals, and insecticide timings. Bucket traps captured the most moths, yet trap counts poorly predicted crop damage.

Efficacy of Selected Commercial Bio‐Products in Disrupting Symbiont Acquisition and Survival of Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 764-773, July 2026.
Targeting the symbiont Candidatus Pantoea carbekii offers a novel way to manage the invasive brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys). Among the three commercial bio‐products tested, Dentamet significantly reduced symbiont acquisition and caused up to 75% nymphal mortality in laboratory conditions, which was confirmed by quantitative Real‐Time ...

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.
Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.
