Despite severe habitat loss, insect species richness, seasonal fluctuations in richness and temporal β‐diversity did not differ significantly among forests adjacent to the mudflow and reference sites. We found higher wet‐season species richness for ants, bees, butterflies and dung beetles, while termites showed no seasonal change; β‐diversity was ...

Termites (Isoptera: Termitidae) infestation is a key constraint to maize production in Uganda. This study was conducted to determine the effect of integrating planting time and imidacloprid‐treated wood sawdust in the control of termites. Three experiments were established at Ikulwe Satellite Station in Mayuge in 2017B, 2018A, and 2018B in a randomized
