Unearthing Mesozoic beetles through micro‐computed tomography: A new family of Archostemata and the first representatives of Ommatidae and †Notocupes from the Crato Formation

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, July‐September 2026.
First formally described Archostemata beetles from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation are reported, representing the earliest records of the suborder from western Gondwana. Micro‐computed tomography enabled three‐dimensional reconstruction of partially exposed fossils, revealing previously hidden dorsal and ventral morphological characters relevant ...

Discovery of an Adaptive Neuroimmune Response Driving Itch and Fast Tick Removal with Implications for Preventing Pathogen Transmission

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 32, 9 June 2026.
Itch‐induced tick removal (IITR): An acquired neuroimmune mechanism, itch‐induced tick removal, develops after repeated tick exposure, mobilizing T cells and macrophages at the tick bite site to trigger a rapid scratching response that facilitates timely tick removal within a critical window that precedes the transmission of many tick‐borne pathogens ...

Occurrence of the Latero-subapical Labial Sensillum in Borysthenes maculata and Andes marmorata (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Cixiidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A peg-like structure, found on each lateral side of the distal segment of the labium, close to the labial apex, in two cixiid planthopper species Borysthenes maculata (Matsumura) and Andes marmorata (Uhler) (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Cixiidae), is ...

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

open access: yesNew 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).

Greeffiella bellula n. sp. (Nematoda: Desmoscolecida): The First Desmoscolecid Nematode Species to Be Described From New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 2, June 2026.
The mostly marine nematode order Desmoscolecida is globally distributed with over 270 species known to date. Here, we describe Greeffiella bellula n. sp., the first desmoscolecid species to be described from New Zealand waters, from deep‐sea sediments. The new species is most similar to G. japonica, described from coastal sediments in the Sea of Japan,

Biological Pesticides as Viable Alternative to Synthetic Pesticides for Sustainable Agriculture and Nutrition: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The overuse of synthetic pesticides in agriculture has raised significant environmental and health concerns. Biopesticides have emerged as viable, environmentally compatible alternatives. However, recent comprehensive reviews integrating all biopesticide categories and emphasizing their contribution to synthetic‐pesticide‐free and health‐safe ...

Dose–response to sucrose and inositol recorded from the lateral maxillary styloconic sensillum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Sensory response of the sucrose-best (A) and inositol-specific (B) taste cells in the lateral styloconic sensillum on the maxillary galea to different concentrations of sucrose and myo-inositol in the polyphagous silkworm Sawa-J·lem (•), normal silkworm ...
