Does the superfluous killing exhibited by spiders mask the functional response parameters? A case study from the perspective of biological control

open access: yesJournal 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.

Illuminating arthropod diversity in a tropical forest: Assessing biodiversity by automatic light trapping and DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 2, March–April 2024.
Metabarcoding of automatic light traps in a tropical forest reveals great diversity. Comparing metabarcoding to local long‐term monitoring program reveals this to be successful at capturing known diversity of focal species. Abstract Although studies of insect decline have recently dominated headlines worldwide, their interpretation requires caution ...

Prevalence of the endoparasitoid Verrallia aucta in Central Scotland: A potential biocontrol for Philaenus spumarius (Hemiptera, Aphrophoridae), an important vector of Xylella fastidiosa

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 2, Page 158-170, March 2024.
Abstract Xylella fastidiosa is a bacterial plant pathogen transmitted by xylem‐feeding insect vectors such as the meadow spittlebug, Philaenus spumarius (Hemiptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha, family Aphrophoridae). Although X. fastidiosa is not currently found in the UK, methods for reducing vector populations will play an important role in controlling ...

Study of the overwintering ecology of the hazelnut pest, Palomena prasina (L.) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in a perspective of Integrated Pest Management

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 1, Page 34-48, February 2024.
Abstract Palomena prasina, the green shield bug (GSB), is widely distributed in the Eurosiberian region. In the Southwest of France, it is considered as a serious pest of hazelnuts, its feeding punctures lead to blank hazelnuts and kernel necrosis, causing heavy losses in commercial orchards. To date, no Integrated Pest Management strategy is available

Overcoming biodiversity blindness: Secondary data in primary citizen science observations

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 5, Issue 1, January–March 2024.
Multimedia data collected through citizen science, such as photographs of observed species, can provide additional information beyond the primary data of species name, location and date. This unintentionally captured secondary data may represent characteristics of individuals or populations, biotic interactions (including human–nature interactions ...

Smallness of the Panmictic Unit of Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera: Reduviidae)

open access: yesJournal of Medical Entomology, 1998
The population genetic structure of Triatoma infestans (Klug), the principal vector of the causative agent of Chagas disease in Bolivia, was investigated by enzyme electrophoresis at 15 loci, of which 3 were polymorphic. A total of 1,286 adults and nymphs was collected from 19 localities of the Cochabamba (high endemicity) and La Paz (low endemicity ...
