Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Cytisus scoparius*
Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 7, Page 1877-1933, July 2025.Broom is an attractive and common native plant across Britain, Ireland and most of Europe, and yet it is considered a harmful and invasive weed around the rest of the world. This is aided by broom thriving on poor dry soils, helped by using green stems for photosynthesis and having root nodules to fix nitrogen.

Plant Protection Science, 1999 B. bassiana strains isolated from 0. nubilalis were tested against the larvae of 0. nubilalis and coccinellid beetles in laboratory conditions (25°C). The first dead 0. nubilalis larvae were observed 48 hours after the application.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 5, Page 393-402, May 2025.To attract mates, several coleopteran taxa release volatile sex pheromones via a behaviour termed calling. We studied a postulated calling behaviour in the seven‐spot ladybird Coccinella septempunctata L. for the first time. We also investigated the effects of immediate mating history and the presence of conspecifics on calling behaviour.
