Solving the trophic puzzle: Host–parasite associations in Neotropical fig wasps associated with fig trees of section Americanae

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
We determined the trophic associations among fig wasp species associated with Ficus citrifolia by integrating gall morphology, the temporal sequence of wasp colonization, and oviposition behaviour. Dissection of galls produced by four gall‐inducing species at a late developmental phase enabled direct identification of occupants and inference of host ...

The role of habitat simplification and seasonality in shaping interactions between ants, plants and herbivores in a neotropical savanna

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
We evaluated how chronic anthropogenic disturbances (CAD) and seasonal variation influence interactions between ants and plants with extrafloral nectaries (EFN's), with emphasis on the responses of ants, herbivores, and plants. Ant and herbivore diversity remained stable across seasons in the preserved cerrado, whereas the pasture had higher ant ...

Effect of land use change on Melolonthidae (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) beetle communities in the deforestation arc of the Brazilian Amazon

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Habitat transformation in Amazon due to agriculture expansion impairs Melolonthidae diversity. Assemblage response towards habitat transformation are group‐dependent. Although highly disturbed, Amazon arc of deforestation region dwells sensitive insect assemblages. Abstract Although the Amazon provides crucial goods and ecosystem services for humanity,
