The Vulnerability of Overwintering Insects to Loss of the Subnivium

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Winter climate change threatens the subnivium (i.e., the microhabitat that exists between the snowpack and the ground), and the community of species that depends on it for overwintering survival. One group of species that will likely exhibit an array of responses to subnivium loss is overwintering insects because they vary in their cold ...

Pharmacophagy in insects: Ecological and evolutionary perspectives on the non‐nutritional use of plant specialized metabolites

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 7, Page 661-673, July 2025.
Insects interact with plants not only for nutrition but also to actively seek plant specialized metabolites (PSMs) for chemical defense, reproduction, and self‐medication—a behavior known as pharmacophagy. This review examines how insects across diverse orders acquire PSMs from both food and non‐food plants for non‐nutritional benefits.

INSECT LIFE AND LETTERS: THE STUDIES OF HANNS HEINZ EWERS AND OTTO AND ROSE HECHT

open access: yesGerman Life and Letters, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 342-363, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This article argues that vast histories of war and displacement in the twentieth century are connected to the small and almost unnoticeable lives of insects, and that philology has much to gain from paying attention to insect worlds. We examine two case studies: the work of the German entomologist Otto Hecht and his wife, Rose Caro Hecht, and ...

Some Insects Are More Equal Than Others: A Comparison of Popular Large Language Model Chatbots' Treatment of Different Insect Groups 昆虫间的不平等——主流大语言模型 (LLM) 对不同昆虫评价的比较研究

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 254-267, June 2025.
Our research demonstrates that in mirroring prevailing human biases towards different insect groups, LLM chatbots oversimplify insect diversity by predominantly restricting “bees” to honeybees and “wasps” to yellowjackets, neglecting the majority of biodiversity that includes wild bees and parasitoid wasps, while also favouring Nearctic species in ...

The influence of density stratification and multiple nonlinearities on solar torsional oscillations

open access: yes, 2003
Analyses of recent helioseismic data have produced ample evidence for substantial dynamical variation of the differential rotation within the solar convection zone. Given the inevitable difficulties in resolving the precise nature of variations at deeper
