Ecological factors underlying the spatiotemporal dynamics in a key forest beetle pollinator Facteurs écologiques à la base de la dynamique spatio‐temporelle d'un important coléoptère forestier pollinisateur

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 590-599, November 2025.
Eusphalerum, an understudied beetle pollinator in North America, comprises over 50% of beetle specimens collected using flight‐intercept traps in forests across New Brunswick, Canada. In a study investigating its phenology, congeneric aggregation and population dynamics, we demonstrated that Eusphalerum exhibits unique phenology distinct from other ...

Description of a new species of Chrysina Kirby, 1828 (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Rutelinae) from optima group, based on morphological characters and mtDNA COX I molecular marker

open access: yesActa Biologica Sibirica, 2019
A new species of the genus Chrysina Kirby, 1828 is decribed from Panama. Chrysina valentini sp.n. is related to Chrysina tricolor (Ohaus, 1922) and Chrysina optima (H. W. Bates, 1888) in morphology and mtDNA COX I molecular marker.

24 million years of pollination interaction between European linden flowers and bumble bees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 2111-2127, November 2025.
Summary Pollination is the most common insect–plant mutualism, binding them in a co‐evolutionary framework. Historic evidence of this interaction can be partly inferred from time‐calibrated molecular phylogenies of plant and insect lineages or directly from fossils.

Sex Ratio Modulates Reproductive Output and Dung Burying Behavior in Dung Beetle Gymnopleurus sturmi (Macleay, 1821) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study examines the sex‐specific roles and the impact of sex ratios on dung ball production and offspring emergence in the dung beetle species Gymnopleurus sturmi. It finds that both males and females can produce dung balls, with females producing the most when alone, while male presence increases offspring emergence rates.

Predominantly Terrestrial Foraging and Reproductive Gains From a High Trophic Level Diet in Roof‐Nesting Herring Gulls (Larus argentatus)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
We used stable isotope analysis to investigate the association between foraging choices and reproductive success in roof‐nesting herring gulls. Surprisingly, δ13C values indicated predominantly terrestrial foraging, while fledging success increased with elevated δ15N, indicating that mothers feeding at higher trophic levels produced higher quality eggs
