The American cocoa pod borer, Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging pest of cocoa: A review El barrenador americano de la mazorca de cacao, Carmenta foraseminis, una plaga emergente del cacao: una revisión

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 340-356, August 2025.
Abstract This review provides a synthesis of the available knowledge on Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging cocoa pest in northern South America. This moth was first described in 1995 in Panama, and its proliferation across the Amazon basin is currently threatening the production of cocoa in the region and may endanger the sector's sustainability. Hence,

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Cytisus scoparius*

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 7, Page 1877-1933, July 2025.
Broom is an attractive and common native plant across Britain, Ireland and most of Europe, and yet it is considered a harmful and invasive weed around the rest of the world. This is aided by broom thriving on poor dry soils, helped by using green stems for photosynthesis and having root nodules to fix nitrogen.

Evaluation of pitfall traps for capturing arthropods in turfgrass

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 11, Issue 1, June 2025.
Abstract The turfgrass system is a complex ecosystem where many soil‐born arthropods dwell and co‐exist. Often, turfgrass is threatened by many pests, such as billbugs (Sphenophorus spp.; Coleoptera: Curculionidae). Monitoring pests is an important strategy for effective management decisions.

What is the potential for artificial selection of insect biological control traits? A systematic review of their genetic variation, heritability, and evolvability

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 6, Page 463-497, June 2025.
Growing interest in optimizing biocontrol traits, particularly due to Nagoya Protocol constraints, necessitates understanding their heritability and genetic variation. This systematic review of 5209 studies on arthropod biocontrol agents yielded 94 relevant articles, with 42 providing heritability values.

Thermal performance drifts between the egg parasitoid Telenomus remus and the fall armyworm may threaten the efficacy of biological control under climate change

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 5, Page 338-350, May 2025.
High‐temperature acclimation pretreatment increased the parasitoid, Telenomus remus's heat tolerance, but these responses were lower than basal levels of fall armyworm, the host. High‐temperature acclimation also reduced the parasitoid's efficacy on fall armyworm eggs. Sub‐optimal high‐ and low‐temperature stress significantly reduced T.
