Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Using DNA metabarcoding, this study investigates pollen transported by syrphids (Syrphidae) in the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park and agricultural sites in Northern Italy. The analysis reveals a high diversity of visited plant taxa, including previously undocumented plant–pollinator interactions.

Preventing Invasive Non‐Native Species: A Horizon Scanning for the Canary Islands
Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Oceanic islands host exceptional biodiversity and endemism but are highly vulnerable to biological invasions. We aimed to identify non‐native species with high potential to invade the Canary Islands within the next decade and to prioritise them based on their environmental and socioeconomic risks.

Revista Chilena de Entomología, 2019 In the present note, we document an extension of the geographic range of Prodecatoma philodendri Ferrière, 1924 to the state of São Paulo, Brazil, based on examination of specimens obtained in fruits of Philodendron bipinnatifidum Schott ex Endl ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 8, Page 842-850, August 2026.Nymphal development took longer at 25°C than 30°C, and the Greek N. tenuis population developed more slowly than the commercial population. Nymphs clearly preferred E. kuehniella eggs over Artemia sp. cysts when both were offered equally. Egg production increased at 30°C, while female longevity declined.

Combined phylogenetic and geographic data can predict plant–pest interactions with high accuracy
New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2107-2123, August 2026.Schematic overview of the study pipeline. Summary Non‐native plant pests can pose major threats to biodiversity, with destructive ecological and economic consequences. The ability to predict future threats would allow limited resources to be concentrated on managing the most serious risks. We built a Bayesian model to predict hosts at risk from Agrilus,

Phytophagy as an alternative feeding strategy of parasitic Hymenoptera larvae [PDF]
, 2017 Parasitoidism is considered to be the primary larval feeding strategy of parasitic Hymenoptera (Hymenoptera: Apocrita: Parasitoida). However, many species became secondarily phytophagous, in particular some species of Ichneumonoidea, Cynipoidea and ...

Zoophytophagous predator-induced defences restrict accumulation of the tomato spotted wilt virus [PDF]
, 2020 BACKGROUND: The use of zoophytophagous predators in protected crops has been widely adopted to manage pests in southern Europe. We hypothesized that plant defence responses would be induced by zoophytophagous predators and this induction could affect ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.The biology of gall‐forming fergusoninid flies and their obligate nematode mutualists suggests strict vertical transmission of nematodes between fly generations. Using mitochondrial sequence data to associate fly and nematode haplotypes, we found widespread intraspecific horizontal transfer in multiple species.

Phytophagy of omnivorous predator Macrolophus pygmaeus affects performance of herbivores through induced plant defences [PDF]
Oecologia, 2017 Plants possess various inducible defences that result in synthesis of specialized metabolites in response to herbivory, which can interfere with the performance of herbivores of the same and other species. Much less is known of the effects of plant feeding by omnivores.
