Insect Science, Volume 31, Issue 4, Page 1001-1014, August 2024.Insects have been demonstrated to exhibit rich object‐use behaviors. The intelligence, pre‐existing manipulation behavior (e.g., ant use materials in nest building as pre‐existing behavior to cover inaccessible surfaces or drop particles behavior or food bury), and anatomical structure affect the innovation of object use.

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 4, Page 364-370, May 2024.Abstract The meadow spittlebug Philaenus spumarius L. (Hemiptera: Aphrophoridae) is a xylem‐sap feeder and the most abundant and widespread vector of Xylella fastidiosa (Xanthomonadales: Xanthomonadaceae) throughout Europe. Control strategies for the disease are based on containment and eradication measures regulated by the European Union.
