Mitogenomic phylogeny of Eurytoma Illiger (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae): Genus delimitation, species‐group assessment and recurrent host‐use transitions

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.
Mitogenomes from 166 Eurytomidae confirm Eurytoma is polyphyletic; 10 species groups are recovered in Eurytoma s.s., and several lineages are reassigned to other genera or newly delimited clades. Conservative head and mesosoma traits, especially the postgenal depression and ventral shelf, track mitogenomic clades closely, supporting their diagnostic ...

Two new species and new country records of Eustigmaeus (Trombidiformes: Prostigmata: Stigmaeidae) in Japan

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Taxonomy
The genus Eustigmaeus Berlese, 1910 contains over 140 known species distributed worldwide, including parasites of sandflies and moss-feeders. Here, we examine the taxonomic status of five previously unidentified species of Eustigmaeus from Japan.

Toward a global repository of insect traits (GRIT)

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 253-267, March 2026.
Biodiversity loss is accelerating, yet insect conservation is hindered by the absence of a centralised, comprehensive trait database. We propose the GRIT, a FAIR, open‐access platform uniting datasets and collaborators worldwide. GRIT will harness advanced computational tools for trait acquisition and imputation, enabling large‐scale ecological ...

Phytophagy of Nesidiocoris tenuis triggers the response of Trichogramma achaeae to tomato plants infested by Tuta absoluta

open access: yesJournal of Pest Science, 2023
AbstractThe generalist predator Nesidiocoris tenuis, an effective biological control agent of numerous pests of the tomato crops, can also trigger plant defence mechanisms (direct and indirect) due to its phytophagous behaviour. In southern Europe, Nesidiocoris tenuis is frequently released in tomato greenhouses to control the invasive pest Tuta ...

Ultrastructural changes during the symbiotic seed germination of Gastrodia elata with fungi, with emphasis on the fungal colonization region

open access: yesBotanical Studies, 2020
Background Gastrodia elata is a fully mycoheterotrophic orchid and has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine. The life cycle of G. elata requires an association with two different fungi-Mycena for seed germination and Armillaria for tuber growth.

Integrating Sanger and next‐generation sequencing data sheds light on phylogenetic relationships among gelechioid moths (Lepidoptera: Gelechioidea)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
The maximum‐likelihood analysis of a phylogenomic dataset of 1767 protein‐coding genes from 57 ingroup taxa yields a robust family‐level topology for Gelechioidea, revealing novel among‐family relationships. Integration of the phylogenomic dataset with the available taxon‐rich Sanger‐sequenced data provides insights into the monophyly of the 20 ...

Phylogenomics of Anthomyiidae and a revised classification of Scathophagidae (Diptera: Calyptratae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
Family Anthomyiidae is revised using a broad sampling of genera, including the Neotropical Coenosopsia and Phaonantho, which are recovered as Coenosopsiinae Bailey & Michelsen (subfam. nov.). The former family Scathophagidae is recovered within the family Anthomyiidae with strong support and relegated to subfamily rank as Scathophaginae (stat.

Phytophagy on fossil ferns from Argentina (Palo Pintado Formation, Late Miocene): a review of their fossil record and ichnotaxonomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Evidence of insect-fern interactions are described for the fi rst time from late Miocene strata of Salta Province, Argentina. Two ichnospecies are defi ned to include fossil traces of surface feeding and hole feeding, located between the secondary veins ...
