Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.The Lauxaniid fly Incurviseta cf. maculifrons (Malloch, 1925) is a locally abundant but poorly understood flower visitor in the Australian Alpine. We describe the flower visitation, pollen transport, pollen diet and mouthpart morphology of I. cf. maculifrons using field observations, pollen analyses and scanning electron microscopy. I. cf.

Temperature‐independent arrest in female reproduction in a tropical fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae)
Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Polyphagous tropical fruit flies of the genus Bactrocera are generally assumed to undergo continuous breeding on the basis that hosts and temperature are not limiting. However, in their endemic monsoonal rainforest habitats, breeding hosts are not always available, and repeatable seasonal population depression for Bactrocera species has been ...
