Insecticides alter wild and managed pollination dynamics on oil crop yield
Our results show that combining honey bee hives with insecticide use does not automatically enhance crop yield. Pollination outcomes are strongly scale‐ and context‐dependent, with wild pollinators providing disproportionately important services. Agricultural management should therefore prioritize integrated strategies that reduce pesticide pressure ...

The foraging behaviour of beneficials such as aphidophagous predators depend largely on volatile compounds emitted by potential preys. Even if polyphagous predatory species are considered, all the potential preys are not systematically localised and ...

Do flower mixtures with high functional diversity enhance aphid predators in wildflower strips?
Among the semi-natural elements in agricultural landscapes, wildflower strips sown at field margins or within fields are potential habitats for the natural enemies of insect pests.

A new hoverfly genus from the Oligocene of France with unusual morphology
Here, we describe Intricodon cryptodaemoniacus, a new fossil genus and species of hoverfly (Diptera: Syrphidae), representing the second described hoverfly from the middle Oligocene of Céreste (Luberon, Southern France). It has unique, highly specialized

In Europe there are only a few species of the syrphid fly Microdon, which live in the nests of various genera of ants. For most of these rare flies, details of their biology, larval behaviour and relationships with their hosts are still not yet well ...
