Governance of Climate‐Induced Relocation in the US: An Exploration of Institutional Complexity
Review of Policy Research, Volume 43, Issue 2, March 2026.ABSTRACT Climate change has and will continue to have a profound effect on both individuals and the communities in which they reside. A pressing question is how communities forced to confront climate‐induced catastrophe—including both rapid and slow‐onset hazards—undertake the decision of how and when to relocate, particularly given the multiple scales

The discrepancy between fire ant recruitment to and performance on rodent carrion
Scientific Reports, 2022 Ants have not been considered important in the process of vertebrate carrion decomposition, but a recent literature review reported over 150 carrion-visiting ant species.

Fire Ant Venom Alkaloids: Possible Control Measure for Soilborne and Foliar Plant Pathogens
Pathogens, 2021 The purpose of this study was to evaluate fire ant venom alkaloids and an alarm pheromone analog against several plant pathogens, including Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium oxysporum, Phytophthora nicotianae, P.

Food-burying behavior in red imported fire ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
PeerJ, 2019 The food-burying behavior has been reported in many mammals and birds, but was rarely observed in invertebrates. The red imported fire ants, Solenopsis invicta Buren, is an invasive pest in many areas of the world that usually performing food-burying during the foraging processes.

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.We outline the diversity of pests, weeds and plant pathogens absent from New Zealand that threaten forage production, examine their potential import pathways, and outline the challenges of managing them should they arrive. The number and diversity of threats and pathways indicates ongoing incursions are inevitable.

Evaluation of Gaucho Seed Treatment and Soil Insecticides for Management of the Red Imported Fire Ant on Seedling Grain Sorghum During 1994-1996 (Research Report #101) [PDF]
, 1998 Seed treatments have been used in Louisiana and Texas to prevent red imported fire ant damage in grain sorghum. Seed-protecting insecticides often repel or kill red imported fire ants.

Novel Worker‐Like Behavior Observed in Gynes of the Social Parasite Tetramorium microgyna
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.Our article reports, to our knowledge, the first observations of inquiline gynes performing worker tasks for their host colony. We dissected these gynes to establish that they were all unmated. We hypothesize that nest excavation by social parasites represents an artifact of a non‐parasitic past.

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.We conclude that horizon scanning provides a rapid, affordable and successful mechanism to predict the arrival of high‐risk INNS. We highlight the importance of citizen science, including biological recording, and of local expertise for detecting and documenting arrival of INNS.
