Unveiling Wasps as Potential Pollinators: Floral Traits and Wasp Sociality Intensify Network Centrality in a Highly Diverse Tropical Ecosystem

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 10, Page 1520-1531, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Wasps, members of over 90 hymenopteran families, exhibit diverse behaviours, including pollination, predation and parasitism. While wasps are known pollinators in specialised systems, such as the intricate mutualism of fig trees and the deceptive pollination of certain orchids, they have historically been considered ineffective pollinators ...

Male Behavior in \u3ci\u3eEvagetes Subangulatus\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Pompilidae) [PDF]

, 2017
Males of Evagetes subangulatus patrolled primarily among shrubs in an area where females dug in soil. Twenty-nine individually-marked males were seen from 0 to 16 days after marking. They shared a home range space of about 400 m3.

Using total abundance as a proxy for wild bee species richness: A practical tool for non‐experts

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 3065-3077, November 2025.
The use of a simple but effective proxy could be an important starting point for the expansion of wild bee monitoring initiatives at the regional scale, particularly given the growing involvement of non‐specialists. We provided here a simple implementation framework to use this proxy in rapid biodiversity assessments, such as the evaluation of payment ...

Sapsucker Wells as a Keystone Nutritional Resource: Evaluating Methods for Detection of Secondary Sap Consumers

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
We used direct observations, camera traps, and environmental DNA (eDNA) to identify secondary consumers of sap from wells created by red‐naped (S. nuchalis) and Williamson's (S. thyroideus) sapsuckers among three groups of shrubs and trees in south‐central Colorado, USA.

Termite Vibration Sensing: The Chordotonal Organs and Their Appendages

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
This study investigates how termites use their legs and antennae as vibration‐sensitive sensory organs, comparing them to ants, their eusocial predators. Termite appendages are morphologically adapted to detect lower‐frequency, wood‐borne vibrations, enhancing their foraging and predator avoidance abilities. These findings suggest that termite legs may

Towards edge processing of images from insect camera traps

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 573-589, October 2025.
The advancement of light traps with camera‐based monitoring systems for nocturnal insects necessitates effective and flexible pipelines for analysing recorded images. In this paper, we present a flexible and fast processing pipeline designed to analyse these recordings by detecting, tracking and classifying insects in a broad taxonomy of 15 classes and
