The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations
Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 1256-1284, August 2026.This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 933-941, August 2026.Lethal (mortality) and sublethal (fecundity, fertility) effects of the biopesticide Prev‐Am Plus (containing ~6% sweet orange essential oil) were assessed on the tachinid fly Exorista larvarum. Mated females were exposed via contact and oral routes across five concentrations (0.25%–20%) using protocols adapted from Apis mellifera.

Entomological Research, Volume 56, Issue 7, July 2026.ABSTRACT Gall mites (superfamily Eriophyoidea) are highly specialized phytophagous arthropods with extreme host plant specificity and marked morphological diversity. Despite extensive taxonomic and molecular research, phylogenetic relationships within the superfamily remain unresolved, largely due to persistent polyphyly among several families.
