Macronutrient composition in pollen affects development and survival in wild bees

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 350-362, June 2026.
Small carpenter bees (Ceratina calcarata) were reared on diets formulated with black poplar and dandelion pollen, while closely monitoring developmental metrics, lipid content and survival. Macronutrient analyses on both pollen types revealed dandelion pollen contained lower levels of protein, essential amino acids and several fatty acids, which ...

Influence of temperature and light on the development of moth larvae: Different response in the sister species Orthosia gothica and Orthosia cerasi

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 363-376, June 2026.
Experimental rearing of Orthosia gothica and Orthosia cerasi larvae under four controlled climate‐chamber treatments (15°C vs. 20°C; 24h darkness vs.12h light/12h dark) to isolate temperature and light effects on development. Repeated measurements of larval body size, biomass and pupation timing to quantify how growth rates and developmental duration ...

Use of Social Bees and Solitary Bees as Bioindicators of Environmental Contamination

International Journal For Multidisciplinary Research
With an emphasis on the biology of bee nesting, their ecological functions, and their efficacy in determining heavy metal pollution, this review paper summarises current research on bees as bioindicators of environmental contamination. Review brought attention to the solitary nesting behaviours of species such as Epanthidium tigrinum and Megachile ...

From Everyman to Hamlet: A Distant Reading

Renaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 378-443, June 2026.
Abstract The sixteenth century sees English drama move from Everyman to Hamlet: from religious to secular subject matter and from personified abstractions to characters bearing proper names. Most modern scholarship has explained this transformation in terms originating in the work of Jacob Burckhardt: concern with religion and a taste for ...

Neotropical ants are at greater risk from global warming in savanna than in adjacent forest

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Determining how the thermal tolerances of species are related to climatic conditions at multiple spatial scales can improve our understanding of species distributions and their vulnerability to climate change. We compare the warming tolerances—a metric of warming vulnerability—of arboreal and ground‐dwelling ants from savanna and adjacent ...

Climatic origin and plasticity shape emergence timing and fitness in bees and wasps under experimental climate regimes

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1461-1474, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Climate warming threatens the persistence of insect populations by forcing them to adjust their phenology—responses that may be constrained by local adaptation and involve physiological trade‐offs.
