Multi‐angle, cross‐domain fusion strategy enhances automated insect identification and hierarchical categorization: a case study on assassin bugs (Hemiptera: Reduviidae)

open access: yesCladistics, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 358-373, August 2026.
Abstract Automated insect identification systems hold significant value for biodiversity monitoring, pest management, citizen science initiatives and systematic studies, particularly in an era of declining expertise in insect taxonomy. However, current deep learning approaches often rely on standardized specimen photos from limited‐angles and ...

Anthracnose in Yerba Mate Caused by Colletotrichum nymphaeae in Brazil

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis St. Hil.) is the primary non‐timber native forest species in Southern Brazil, and its socioeconomic importance is linked to the consumption of its leaves in hot and iced teas, as well as the manufacture of energy drinks and cosmetics.

Biogeography of Bursaphelenchus Species Driven by Climate, Vectors and Hosts: Implications for Forest Pathology Under Climate Change

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Wood‐inhabiting nematodes of the genus Bursaphelenchus are a group with significant ecological and economic impacts on global forest ecosystems. This review aims to update current knowledge on their spatial distribution, host‐vector associations and the factors driving species expansion under the framework of climate change.

A new pest recorded in Italy: The South African citrus thrips, Scirtothrips aurantii (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, Volume 56, Issue 2, Page 309-316, August 2026.
Abstract The South African citrus thrips, Scirtothrips aurantii Faure, 1929, has been recorded in Italy for the first time. This species was recently reported in Spain and Portugal. Its presence has been confirmed in the major citrus‐growing area of Catania province (Sicily), infesting citrus trees. S. aurantii is currently included in the EPPO A1 List

Harnessing Genomic Information for Identifying the Geographic Origin of Five North American Tree Species in Trade

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Genomic tools for traceability of wood products offer a powerful tool to support sustainable forestry, fight illegal logging, and improve conservation efforts. Traditional identification methods (e.g., wood anatomy, spectroscopy) are limited in resolution or scope, but genomic approaches can infer both species identity and geographic origin ...

Impact of Climate Change on the Potential Distribution of Macaúba (Acrocomia aculeata, Acrocomia totai, Acrocomia intumescens) in Brazil

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Climate change is projected to drive contrasting responses among Brazilian macaúba palms, ranging from relative stability and expansion to severe suitability loss. Ensemble ecological distribution models identified Acrocomia intumescens as highly vulnerable, while A.

Combined phylogenetic and geographic data can predict plant–pest interactions with high accuracy

open access: yesNew 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,
