Robot‐Aided Measurement of Insect Diversity on Vegetation Using Environmental DNA
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.We developed a novel method combining drone‐based sampling and environmental DNA (eDNA) with Oxford Nanopore sequencing to monitor insect biodiversity on vegetation. Using a DJI Matrice 3 drone, we collected eDNA samples from grassland, shrub and forest habitats in Switzerland, detecting 64 insect taxa and revealing habitat‐specific differences in ...

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 265-279, May 2025.Floral resources were similar between dike and semi‐natural areas while invertebrate richness, diversity, and composition differed. Invertebrate community composition differed based on presence of specific flora. Pollinator abundance was twice as high in the semi‐natural habitat.

Behavioural analysis of web building anomalies in the orb-weaving spider Zygiella x-notata (Araneae, Araneidae) [PDF]
, 2012 Among animal constructions, spider’s orb webs represent regular geometrical architecture models. Their construction is the result of successive, simple and reproducible behavioural patterns, often considered as stereotyped.
