Host desiccation and interspecific competition limit reproductive performance of a bark beetle

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
At high and moderate phloem moisture levels, Polygraphus proximus reproductive success was suppressed by sympatric species density. At low phloem moisture, P. proximus reproductive success was suppressed by the low phloem moisture regardless of the Cryphalus laricis hole density. Conspecific density (i.e., attack density of P.

Testing the morphology‐ and intuition‐based taxonomic hypotheses using integrative approach: unexpected discovery of triplet of sibling species within a widespread Eurasian butterfly, Hyponephele lycaon

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In well‐studied groups of organisms, the taxonomic landscape can be very complex, with several alternative classifications describing diversity within the same set of populations. For example, three hypotheses have previously been proposed to describe the taxonomy of the common and widespread Eurasian Dusky Meadow Brown butterfly, Hyponephele ...

To stop or not? Mediterranean migrants differ in both arrival condition and refuelling success after barrier crossing

Ibis, EarlyView.
Understanding refuelling performance at stopover sites is central to elucidating the migration strategies of passerines, particularly at Mediterranean landfall islands where birds arrive after crossing major ecological barriers. We investigated fuel deposition dynamics and potential flight range in five long‐distance migrant passerines (Great Reed ...
