Method development for solitary bee pesticide risk assessment using Megachile rotundata as a surrogate species

open access: yes, 2019
Solitary bee diversity and abundance declines worldwide are likely driven partly by pesticides. However, solitary bees may not be adequately protected under the current pesticide risk assessment paradigm that focuses primarily on the honey bee (Apis ...

Metamorphosis is induced by food absence rather than a critical weight in the solitary bee, Osmia lignaria

open access: yes, 2017
Significance In this study, we characterize the developmental mechanisms shaping body size in the solitary bee pollinator, Osmia lignaria .

Digging into dirt: Rewilding with threatened mammals shapes soil‐emerging insect assemblages

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 7, Page 1207-1219, July 2026.
By comparing insect communities across treatments at two time points, we show that reintroduced digging mammals shape soil‐emerging insect assemblages. This provides empirical evidence that restoring ecosystem engineers may drive broader community‐level change in semi‐arid ecosystems. Abstract Digging mammals function as ecosystem engineers by altering

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.
Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

Nemolizumab in prurigo nodularis up to 100 weeks: OLYMPIA LTE interim analysis

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1195-1207, July 2026.
In this interim analysis of the OLYMPIA long‐term extension trial, nemolizumab exhibited sustained efficacy and was well tolerated through 100 weeks, with most adverse events being mild/moderate. Patients showed clinically meaningful improvements in core signs and symptoms.

Monitoring Solitary Bees in Modified Wildland Habitats: Implications for Bee Ecology and Conservation

open access: yes, 1998
The long-term goal of this study was to use solitary bees to assess the impact of advancing Africanized honey bees (Apis mellifcra scutellata Lepeletier) on the native California bee fauna.

New experiences and insights of two-year testing with the leafcutter bee Megachile rotundata in a semi-field test design [PDF]

open access: yes
According to the revised Draft EFSA Bee Guidance Document (EFSA 2023), a key area of concern is the potential risk posed to wild pollinator bee species by the application of plant protection prod-ucts (PPPs). This information holds significant importance
