The evolution of sensitive periods beyond early ontogeny: Bridging theory and data
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sensitive periods, in which experiences have a large impact on phenotypic development, are most common early in ontogeny. Yet, they may also occur at later ontogenetic stages, such as adolescence.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Although research on below‐ground multitrophic interactions has increased, comparative studies examining how root herbivores influence the foraging behaviour of different natural enemies—especially generalist predators—remains limited.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many broad‐scale studies along spatial and habitat gradients show that organisms' traits can strongly influence community assembly by facilitating dispersal and environmental filtering.

Frontiers in Insect ScienceWe present a short review of the biology, diagnostic characteristics, and invasiveness of the Oriental hornet, Vespa orientalis. We also performed an analysis of the shape of the forewings (geometric morphometrics) of different geographic groups along ...

Life history induces markedly divergent insect responses to habitat loss
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study pioneers the use of deep learning to rapidly assess over 22,000 Amazonian insects, revealing life history‐dependent winners and losers from forest loss. It shows that terrestrial insects decline while aquatic insects thrive, with body size influencing dispersal, offering key insights for biodiversity conservation in tropical fragmented ...

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study reveals how forest–grassland edges act as ecological barriers that shape tri‐trophic interaction networks. Using multilayer network theory, it uncovers how species influence and biodiversity patterns emerge across spatial layers, offering novel insights into edge‐driven community assembly and conservation in fire‐prone mosaics.
