Do aphid endosymbiotic bacteria influence parasitoid searching behaviour through changes in aphid honeydew production?

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Preference‐performance relationship in the thistle tortoise beetle: Implications for its realised host range

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
There was a positive relationship between adult preference and larval performance. However, the strength of the relationship ranged from weak to strong depending on the measure of adult preference. The adult beetle showed substantial flexibility in host plant selection and equal performance across most thistle hosts.

Anaerobic Attenuation of Diisopropyl Ether (DIPE) in Groundwater: Kinetics and Implications for Monitored Natural Attenuation

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Diisopropyl ether (DIPE) is a branched ether used as a solvent, extractant, and gasoline additive. While aerobic biodegradation of DIPE has been documented, attenuation under anaerobic conditions (typical of groundwater impacted by petroleum hydrocarbons and fuel oxygenates) remains poorly constrained.

Small birches matter: Beetle diversity on burned birch and pine in boreal forests

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Burned birch hosted higher beetle richness than burned pine. Higher beetle richness on birch was associated with its greater post‐fire mortality, with charred, dead birches attracting more specialized beetles. Retaining burned birch alongside pine can enhance saproxylic and pyrophilous beetle diversity after prescribed burning.

Floral Trait Influence on the Foraging Decisions of a Fly Pollinator

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flies foraging for floral resources provide important ecosystem services through the pollination of myriad angiosperms, including many crop species. However, the specific floral cues used by fly pollinators to locate and discriminate among floral rewards and the preferences they may have for specific cues remain poorly understood.
