New species of rove-beetles (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) from the Southern Russia [PDF]

Кавказский энтомологический бюллетень, 2005
Four new species of rove beetles are described from the southern part of European Russia and Northern Caucasus: Philonthus annae sp. n., closely related to Ph. albipes Gravenhorst, 1802 and Ph. alpinus Eppelsheim, 1875; Rabigus fomitschevi sp.

A specialized prey-capture apparatus in mid-Cretaceous rove beetles [PDF]

Current Biology, 2019
Cai et al. report specialized prey-capture structures in two species of the stenine rove beetles from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber. The discovery provides critical information about the origin and early evolution of both the novel predatory structure and of the subfamily Steninae (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae).

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Where water meets rock: Ecological niches and diversity hotspots of hygropetric beetles in the Neotropics

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 502-516, June 2026.
First continental‐scale synthesis of hygropetric beetle diversity and distribution across Neotropical highlands. Climatic and topographic gradients structure regional assemblages and niche overlap. Ecological convergence suggests adaptation to similar conditions across disjunct regions.

Effects of undersowing maize with a diverse annual flower mixture on insect abundance and diversity

Basic and Applied Ecology
Biodiversity is declining globally, largely driven by anthropogenic land use. In Germany, maize occupies a large proportion of arable land and its cultivation is often viewed critically from an ecological perspective.

Body Size Trade‐Offs Underpin Reproductive Success and Thermal Stress Tolerance in an Invasive Pest, the Small Hive Beetle

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Body size differences have widely been observed in adult small hive beetles (Aethina tumida Murray, SHBs), an invasive pest of honey bee colonies. We hypothesized that parental body size influences reproductive performance, progeny fitness, and stress tolerance in SHBs.

Fires and Clear-Cuttings as Local Areas of Arthropod Diversity in Polar Regions: Khibiny Mountains

Fire
The well-known phenomenon of attracting untypical animals to disturbed territories has been poorly investigated in the polar mountains. We studied arthropod diversity in self-healing industrial clear-cuts and burn areas in the Khibiny Mountains, Kola ...

Resource guarding by Ptomascopus morio: Simple parental care in the Nicrophorinae (Coleoptera: Silphidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2006
Nicrophorine beetles use small vertebrate carrion for breeding resource. While Nicrophorus spp. have highly developed biparental care, no form of parental care is recorded for Ptomascopus spp.

Silica nanoparticles as pesticide against insects of different feeding types and their non-target attraction of predators

Scientific Reports, 2021
The agricultural use of silica (SiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) has the potential to control insect pests while the safety and tritrophic effects on plants and beneficial natural enemies remains unknown.
