How Does the Phasianidae Maintain Its Diversity in Central China?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT The hypothesis of allopatric speciation suggests that spatial separation is the major driver to speciation. The ecological niche theory suggests that differentiations in niche dimensions allow more species to co‐exist in ecological communities.

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari (SMM), New Zealand's largest pest‐fenced ecosanctuary, provides a unique opportunity to study invertebrate responses to mammal eradication. Beetles and wētā were monitored within the mouse‐free southern exclosure and in adjacent comparable forests on the mountain, within the predator‐proof fence (in 2004/05, then 2006 ...

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, April‐June 2026.In this study, a new phylogenetic study reclassifies the moth subfamilies Dyopsinae and Thiacidinae. For the first time, Thiacidas postica—the type species of Thiacidinae—was sequenced and shown to belong within Dyopsinae, in the Ceroctena clade. As a result, Thiacidinae is reinstated as the tribe Thiacidini (stat. nov.) within Dyopsinae.

Phylogenetic Relationships of Plant Bugs Based on Mitochondrial Genomes (Heteroptera: Miridae)
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.This study for the first time employs mitochondrial genomes to resolve Miridae phylogeny, with 42 species spanning 39 genera across six of the seven currently recognized subfamilies. Bryocorinae is paraphyletic as the stem groups of Miridae. These findings provide a progressive phylogenetic framework with new significance for the future phylogenetic ...
