Ants do not prey upon an extrafloral‐nectar‐feeding predatory mite

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 876-885, October 2025.
The predatory mite Amblyseius herbicolus is an important natural enemy of various crop pests and occurs in agroforestry coffee systems, where it feeds on the extrafloral nectar of Inga trees. Because extrafloral nectaries are often vigorously defended by ants, we tested whether ants would attack and kill the mites near nectaries.

The humus profile of an alpine ericaceous heath (Savoie, France): A high‐resolution micromorphological analysis

open access: yesSoil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 89, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract The characteristics used to distinguish between Mor and Moder differ among the various classifications of humus forms. Mor is often associated with ericaceous heathland that develops at high altitude or latitude, or in lowlands when soils are nutrient‐poor, sandy, and acidic.

Evaluation of counterattack efficiency against predators in Schizotetranychus brevisetosus using small glass beads and phytoseiid eggs

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 8, Page 844-853, August 2025.
The web‐nesting spider mite Schizotetranychus brevisetosus Ehara attacks predators outside the nest, but the effectiveness of this behaviour is unknown. Spreading predator‐mimicking glass beads over the web induced intense patrolling behaviour in females, which even captured and attacked beads.

Positive Effects of Inter‐Row Vegetation on Soil Fauna and Organic Matter Decomposition in Mediterranean Vineyards

open access: yesSoil Use and Management, Volume 41, Issue 3, July‐September 2025.
ABSTRACT Soil is a key compartment providing important ecosystem services for sustainable agriculture. Our study examined the effects of three inter‐row vegetation types on soil biological activity, mesofauna, and organic matter decomposition in 15 Mediterranean vineyards of South‐eastern France. The three vegetation types included inter‐rows sown with
