Moderately thinning encroaching shrub species is key to balancing rangeland restoration and arthropod biodiversity conservation in Namibia

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Moderate manual thinning (50F) maintained arthropod diversity comparable to untreated controls while reducing shrub dominance, demonstrating that structural heterogeneity buffers biodiversity loss during rangeland restoration in Namibian bush‐encroached systems. These findings advocate mosaic debushing strategies that preserve vegetation complexity and

Strong diel variation in the activity of insect taxa sampled by Malaise traps

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 533-546, June 2026.
Malaise traps sampled different communities during mornings (06:00–12:00), afternoons (12:00–16:00), evenings (18:00–22:00), and nights (22:00–06:00), highlighting the difference in diel rhythm between taxa. The highest diversity and abundance of insects were found during afternoons, the lowest diversity during night, and the lowest abundance during ...

The role of endosymbionts in the evolution of haploid-male genetic systems in scale insects (Coccoidea) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
There is an extraordinary diversity in genetic systems across species, but this variation remains poorly understood. In part, this is because the mechanisms responsible for transitions between systems are often unknown.

Arthropods on native versus alien woody plants: Understanding variation across host plant taxonomy and geography

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Alien plants have generally been shown to support reduced arthropod abundance, biomass, and diversity compared to native plant species, but inferences have typically come from studies limited in taxonomic and geographic scope. Here, we make use of data from a unique citizen science project, Caterpillars Count!, that consists of nearly 70,000 ...

Checklist of the scale insects (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Coccomorpha) of New Caledonia [PDF]

open access: yesZoosystema, 2016
ABSTRACT We provide an up-to-date catalogue of the Coccomorpha Rubsaamen, 1899 of New Caledonia based on studies of collected and curated specimens and on the literature. One hundred and eighteen species (118) in ten families have been recorded to date, in 70 genera.

Microhabitat Variation in Feeding Places Shape Ant‐Hemiptera Interactions Within Cocoa Agroecosystems

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 3, May 2026.
Ant‐hemipteran mutualistic networks in cocoa crops maintain a stable structural organization across different microhabitats (flowers, leaves, and fruits) and management types. This stability is not intrinsic to the network, but rather an emergent result of the behavior of a few generalist ant species acting as structural buffers.
