Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

Species composition of blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) colonizing pig carcasses exposed to bifenthrin‐ and clothianidin‐containing products

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
High clothianidin concentrations prevented colonization, while bifenthrin showed a non‐significant trend of reduced fly abundance, indicating both insecticides may suppress blow fly activity on treated carcasses. Adult emergence rates were unaffected, with no statistically significant differences observed across insecticide treatments, suggesting ...

Testing Pitfall Trap Modifications and Trail Cameras for Monitoring the Endangered Cromwell Chafer Beetle (Prodontria Lewisii Broun)

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Monitoring population trends are essential for the conservation of threatened species, and establishing best‐practice methods improves the efficiency, accuracy and long‐term value of data collected. For the nationally endangered Prodontria lewisii (Cromwell chafer beetle), monitoring has typically included soil core sampling for larvae, and pitfall ...

Sensory Morphology of Geodorcus helmsi (Coleoptera: Lucanidae) and its Relevance to the Conservation of New Zealand Stag Beetles

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Insects use sensilla to detect chemical and physical stimuli, mediating behaviours such as mate finding, foraging and mechanosensory responses. The distribution and density of sensilla can be examined using scanning electron microscopy. Investigating these structures can help elucidate rarely observed behaviours (e.g. mate finding and foraging).

Do Exotic Versus Native Grasses or Increasing Plant Diversity Affect Larval Development of the Cromwell Chafer Beetle (Prodontria lewisii)?

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
The Cromwell Chafer Beetle (Prodontria lewisii) is an endangered flightless scarab that is extremely vulnerable to extinction because of its small single population at the Cromwell Chafer Beetle Nature Reserve. Captive rearing and translocation are being tested as additional tools to support existing conservation management of this species. To optimize

The value of regeneration for insect fauna associated with leaf litter in the Brazilian savanna: A comparative study of biomass and trophic structure

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 188, Issue 3, Page 875-888, May 2026.
This study demonstrates the ecological value of natural regeneration in the Brazilian Cerrado by analysing the biomass, richness and trophic structure of leaf litter insects across pasture (P), regenerating (R) and native (N) areas. We found that R areas supported insect communities more similar to N habitats than to Ps, with higher richness, greater ...
