Palaeoendemic invertebrates weakly reflect palaeoendemic plants across a 52‐year‐old fire boundary
Palaeoendemic invertebrates are associated with palaeoendemic vascular plants more than could be expected by chance in alpine/subalpine ecosystems on either side of a 52‐year‐old fire boundary. However, some palaeoendemic invertebrates are generalists in their associations with plant species.

Monitoring invertebrates in cereal fields in southern England over 50 years (1970–2019) showed an overall decline in abundance. For taxa at the order/family level, 47% declined in abundance, 16% increased and 37% showed no change. Most functional groups declined, expect for pollinators—whose abundance did not change overall.

Variations of arthropod biodiversity due to human intervention and climatic variations study of a protected and a non-protected area in a tropical forest [PDF]
The diversity of the arthropod fauna from the pacific coast in southern Mexico was investigated in order to study and compare the biodiversity of two different regions. One is located within the Biosphere reserve "La encrucijada" and the second one on the edges of this reserve at a non-protected region.

While the polyphagous larvae of the black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) are gaining interest as an alternative protein source for food and feed, little research has been done on the behavior of the adults. We identified three fatty acids and one fatty acid methyl ester derived from old oviposition sites and aimed to elucidate their effect on ...

Sandflies (Diptera: Psychodidae) in an urban area of Northeastern Brazil [PDF]
The sandfly fauna is well studied globally. In Brazil, sandfly fauna is very diverse in the Northeast region, especially in states such as Maranhão, Ceará, and Bahia. However, in the State of Pernambuco, the distribution of these insects is still not well known.

Wild rabbits are Leishmania infantum reservoirs in southeastern Spain
Abstract Objective We contribute to the understanding of the transmission dynamics of Leishmania infantum suggesting the involvement of rabbits as wild reservoirs. Results The prevalence of infection was 86.0% (270/314 wild rabbits) ranging from 18.2% to 100% in natural geographical regions.
