Long‐proboscid horseflies (Philoliche: Tabanidae) as pollinators of co‐adapted plants in Africa and Asia

open access: yesJournal of applied entomology
Elongated nectar‐feeding mouthparts have evolved in several fly families, most notably Nemestrinidae, Bombyliidae and Tabanidae. Plants pollinated by these “long‐proboscid flies” tend to have relatively specialized pollination systems.

Comparing species accumulation within taxonomically well‐ and poorly resolved insect groups over 37 years

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 1403-1417, November 2026.
Here, we used a unique 37‐year (1969–2006) freshwater macroinvertebrate time‐series, collected over seven sites in central Germany, to study biodiversity patterns and species accumulation over time. Accumulation curves of Diptera diversity have not reached a plateau in 37 years of sampling.

Spatial and Environmental Drivers of Macroinvertebrate Diversity in Groundwater‐Dependent Pan Wetlands Across a Transboundary Aquifer System

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study provides one of the first integrative assessments of macroinvertebrate metacommunity structure in groundwater‐dependent pan wetlands within a transboundary aquifer system, explicitly disentangling the relative roles of environmental filtering and spatial processes.

Pollinator Associations of Rare and Endangered Epacris Species (Ericaceae) in Lutruwita/Tasmania: Implications for Conservation

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The breeding systems of Lutruwita/Tasmania's threatened Epacris taxa are poorly known. Our main objective was to determine the pollinators of several endemic species and explore for relationships between pollinators, floral morphology, flowering time and habitat. The Epacris have limited variation in floral traits and exhibit generalist floral
