Aquatic Insects in Eastern Australia: A Window on Ecology and Evolution of Dispersal in Streams

Studies of connectivity of natural populations are often conducted at different timescales. Studies that focus on contemporary timescales ask questions about dispersal abilities and dispersal behavior of their study species. In contrast, studies conducted at historical timescales are usually more focused on evolutionary or biogeographic questions. In this paper we present a synthesis of connect...

Coffee Insects: Ecology and Control

Coffee is one of the most important agricultural commodities in the world and is grown in more than 50 countries throughout the tropics. Several insect pests have been reported in coffee, the most important being the coffee leaf miner, the coffee berry borer, and the coffee stem borers. The basic biology of these insects is discussed.

Incidence of Wolbachia in aquatic insects

Wolbachia is a genus of intracellular bacteria typically found within the reproductive systems of insects that manipulates those systems of their hosts. While current estimates of Wolbachia incidence suggest that it infects approximately half of all arthropod species, these estimates are based almost entirely on terrestrial insects. No systematic survey of Wolbachia in aquatic insects has been ...
