Activity schedule and foraging in Protopolybia sedula (Hymenoptera, Vespidae) [PDF]
Protopolybia sedula is a social swarming wasp, widely spread throughout many countries in the Americas, including most of Brazil. Despite its distribution, studies of its behavioral ecology are scarce. This study aimed to describe its

Clearwing Moths Captured by Ultraviolet Light Traps in Southern Ohio (Lepidoptera: Sesiidae) [PDF]
Trapping with ultraviolet light in mixed-oak forests of Lawrence and Vinton Counties, Ohio in 1995 and 1996 yielded 46 Synanthedon acerni and four Synanthedon arkansasensis, a clearwing moth record new for the ...

In the insect order Strepsiptera, we identified a paragenital organ in the family Stylopidae that serves as a secondary genital organ for traumatic insemination. We show that the cuticle at the penetration sites is thickened in all species studied, relative to control sites.

Modelling the impacts of an invasive species across landscapes: a step-wise approach [PDF]
We estimate the extent of ecological impacts of the invasive Asian paper wasp across different landscapes in New Zealand. We used: (i) a baseline distribution layer (modelled via MaxEnt); (ii) Asian paper wasp nest density (from >460 field plots, related

Abstract This review provides a synthesis of the available knowledge on Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging cocoa pest in northern South America. This moth was first described in 1995 in Panama, and its proliferation across the Amazon basin is currently threatening the production of cocoa in the region and may endanger the sector's sustainability. Hence,

Abstract Urban ecosystems can act as hotspots for diverse taxa, especially pollinators. However, it is not clear whether urban environments function as high‐quality habitat as opposed to demographic sinks or ecological traps. In recent years, a nonmigratory, winter‐breeding population of monarch butterflies has established in urban gardens in Northern ...

Abstract The genus Tetramesa Walker (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae) comprises over 200 species of herbivorous wasps that feed exclusively on grasses. Recent field surveys in South Africa for grass biological control programs have uncovered a large diversity of potential Tetramesa on African grasses.

Potential expanded pollinator distributions in North America under future climate
Most pollinator species, including monarch butterflies, may gain potential climate space in the future. Shifting to new locations is an additional challenge of climate change. Management, restoration and citizen participation to provide resources and reduce stressors are ecological solutions.
