Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.

Disturbance of ant community structure in Central Texas by the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta [PDF]
The introduction of a competitor into an established community provides an excellent opportunity to study the factors that maintain the dominance, diversity, and interactions of that community.

Corridors increase ant diversity over time [PDF]
Abstract Globally, habitat loss and fragmentation pose significant threats to biodiversity. Habitat corridors are often used in fragmented landscapes to reconnect isolated patches. However, understanding how corridors function can be challenging, as their effects may be confounded with simultaneous changes to habitat area, edge amount, and connectivity

Microplastics (MP) pose a growing health risk to social Hymenoptera, with colony‐level risks depending on brood care strategies. During cooperative brood care, in the buff‐tailed bumblebee, MP is transferred from workers to larvae, but in the Japanese carpenter ant, the infrabuccal pocket prevents such transfer.

The major antennal chemosensory protein of red imported fire ant workers [PDF]
Abstract Some chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are expressed in insect sensory appendages and are thought to be involved in chemical signalling by ants. We identified 14 unique CSP sequences in expressed sequence tag (EST) libraries of the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies
Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.
