Impact of temperature and hypoxia on the size and survival of aquatic insects

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Understanding size–temperature relations is crucial for the conservation of aquatic insects. We hypothesised that the combination of high temperature and hypoxia will lead to a reduction in the size of larvae and pupae of aquatic insects (non‐biting midge, Chrionomus riparius). We showed that Chironomus riparius pupae were significantly smaller at 30°C

Host plants and experimental warming impact fitness and infection outcomes in a migratory butterfly

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Host plant species interacted with temperature treatment to shape monarch survival and infection probabilities. Temperature modified the expected role of tropical milkweed, which did not confer OE resistance to monarchs under elevated temperatures.

Come from away: Reconstructing a long‐range migratory flight of spruce budworm moths to Newfoundland, Canada Venues de loin : reconstitution d'un vol migratoire de longue distance de tordeuses des bourgeons de l'épinette vers Terre‐Neuve, au Canada

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Lagrangian atmospheric models were used in conjunction with ecophysiological factors to reconstruct the path and meteorological conditions of a long‐range migration flight of spruce budworm moths to Newfoundland, Canada. Moths travelled under high winds and warm temperatures that favoured their migratory flight until encountering cooler temperatures ...

Effects of temperature and humidity on the presence and prevalence of a common fungal parasite on an invasive ladybird

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
We investigated how temperature and relative humidity influence the parasitic fungus Hesperomyces harmoniae on the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis under controlled laboratory conditions. Abiotic factors significantly affect parasitism: High relative humidity increased parasite prevalence, development rate, and load, while both low and high ...

Potential climate warming effects on the distribution of an invasive alien pest species

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Drosophila suzukii (SWD) has low resistance to heat waves. The incidence of SWD differed between Illyric‐ and Pannonian climate zone. Desert days (frequency) only increased in the Pannonian zone. Abstract Climate warming can be a powerful driver for the establishment and further spread of alien species by lowering the abiotic resistance of native ...

Air pollution and its multifaceted effects on insect pollinators: A review

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Air pollution disrupts plant‐pollinator interactions by impairing floral signal transmission, altering foraging behaviour, and reducing pollinator fitness, flight efficiency, reproduction and survival, posing serious threats to ecological stability.
