Air pollution and its multifaceted effects on insect pollinators: A review
Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 1-17, February 2026.Air pollution disrupts plant‐pollinator interactions by impairing floral signal transmission, altering foraging behaviour, and reducing pollinator fitness, flight efficiency, reproduction and survival, posing serious threats to ecological stability.

The relationship between morphological and behavioral mimicry in hover flies (Diptera: Syrphidae). [PDF]
, 2013 Palatable (Batesian) mimics of unprofitable models could use behavioral mimicry to compensate for the ease with which they can be visually discriminated or to augment an already close morphological resemblance.

Pollinator communities as indicators of ecological change in developing woodlands
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.A shift in the pollinator community occurs as planted woodlands develop. Bees respond to local habitat change, while hoverflies respond to the broader landscape. The choice of metrics and sampling methods can shape ecological interpretations. Pollinators, especially bees, are sensitive, policy‐relevant indicators for tracking early biodiversity change ...
