Predictions of Future Insect Distributions Under Climate Change
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 10, October 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Climate change has severe consequences for insects worldwide, many of which play key ecological roles. Despite a large literature predicting insect distribution changes over future climate change, a synthesis of predictions of insect responses to climate change in the literature is still lacking. Location Global.

The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach
Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 632-644, October 2025.Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce

Phylogenomics reveals the timescale of diversification in Amblycera
Systematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 540-553, July 2025.Next‐generation sequencing changes the higher taxonomy of Amblycera (Insecta: Phthiraptera). Families Trimenoponidae and Gyropidae merge into Gyropidae; Trinotonidae is a separate family; several genera are paraphyletic. The ancestral host of Amblycera was likely a bird; Amblycera switched to mammals twice.

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Biodiversity science depends on rigorous characterization of species diversity and ecological roles, yet the ecology of many invertebrate species remains virtually unknown. One pragmatic way to change this is to make use of deceased animals and their companions, such as by salvaging and examining carcasses reported by citizen scientists.
