Burrow Construction From the Ground Surface in \u3ci\u3eLyroda Subita\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) [PDF]
Plasticity in the nesting behavior of Lyroda subita, a species that renovates and then uses pre-existing burrows and other subterranean cavities for nesting sites, is illustrated by one female which apparently excavated her burrow from the ground surface.

The African edible bush cricket, Ruspolia differens, is a delicacy and valuable source of nutrition in East Africa, yet the geographic origins of the swarms are poorly understood. Based on the hydrogen isotopes, most individuals (77% non‐swarming adults, 85% swarming adults) originate locally, suggesting that conservation efforts should aim to ...

Species distribution models showed that the topographical position index and slope drives the distribution of P. parnassica and the Normalised Difference Vegetation Index and slope that of O. parnassica. Generalised linear models showed that the abundance of P. parnassica was negatively influenced by the mean height of herbaceous vegetation and that of

For pollinators, transect walks and malaise traps detected a similarly high species richness, but transect walks revealed more species per site, especially in higher elevations and under low temperatures. For grasshoppers, transect walks appear to be more suitable to assess species richness, as considerably more species can be monitored and reliably ...
