Is urbanisation a barrier to genetic diversity in the solitary specialist bee, Melissodes druriellus?

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Bees are integral pollinators commonly found in and supported by urban green spaces; however, their eco‐evolutionary response to urbanisation varies interspecifically. While several studies have explored the population and landscape genetics of bees in response to urbanisation, few have examined solitary or specialist species which may be more ...

Assessing the Impact of Urbanization on Grasshopper Behaviour—A Fieldwork Approach

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urbanization is one of the most significant land‐use changes globally, profoundly impacting biodiversity across taxa. Insects, including grasshoppers (Orthoptera), are particularly sensitive to urban pressures, often exhibiting both morphological and behavioural adaptations.
