We studied flower-insect interactions to two spring flowering crops and accompanying non-crop flowering resources (introduced/native) in apple and blueberry orchards in southern Tasmania, Australia, to (i) identify the important crop pollinating taxa in this region and (ii) examine if crop and non-crop introduced and native flowering plants within orchards supported different community assemblages of flower-feeding insects. We found a high overall contribution to crop visitation by introduced honeybees (<i>Apis mellifera</i>), which dominated visitation to apple (91% of total visits) and blueberry (76% total visits). A second introduced bee, the earth bumblebee (<i>Bombus terrestris</i>), made up 19% of total visits to blueberry, yet rarely visited flowering apple. Reed bees (<i>Exoneura</i>) were the most frequent native bee visitor to both apple 2.5% and blueberry 4%. Non-crop flowering plants around orchards showed significantly different community assemblages of flower-feeding insects in comparison to flowering crops.

It particularly affects Valencia citrus growers, as the available chemical control options are considered unsuitable due to persistence of residues and associated long withholding periods, or too costly. We investigated the effectiveness of two spinosyn-based foliar products, spinosad and spinetoram, for controlling <i>B. fellis</i> and their impact on beneficial arthropods in citrus orchards. Both chemicals demonstrated efficacy, with over 98% mortality in <i>B. fellis</i> adults within 24 h of direct application in laboratory tests. Residual toxicity assessments showed prolonged efficacy, with spinetoram remaining toxic to <i>B. fellis</i> for up to 21 days and spinosad for up to 14 days post-spray. Spinetoram appears more toxic to <i>B. fellis</i> than spinosad. A field trial confirmed efficacy of both active ingredients in reducing <i>B. fellis</i> infestations, particularly with well-timed applications before peak adult <i>B. fellis</i> emergence. A double-spray application of spinetoram (1 week apart) showed the most effective control, with 66% reduction in gall weights and 84% reduction in the proportion of large galls compared to the untreated control.

A critical review of the larval food plants of this subfamily based on published records in the literature, together with unpublished records, is presented. Of the 120 moth–plant species-level records, associations are documented for two-thirds of all species (34 out of 53, or 64%) and almost all genera (19 out of 21, or 90%) of Agaristinae. At the generic level, the overwhelming pattern is a high level of monophagy (12 genera on 1 plant family), followed by oligophagy (4 genera on 2 families); only three genera (<i>Apina</i>, <i>Phalaenoides</i>, <i>Cruria</i>) are polyphagous (&gt;3 plant families). Despite high levels of specialisation, Australian Agaristinae, overall, feed on a set of 19 families of angiosperms in 16 orders and eight higher informal groups, most of which are not closely related. Lack of a well-resolved global phylogeny of Agaristinae precludes analyses of deep evolutionary patterns of host usage, but Vitaceae (Vitales) are the most widely exploited family (used by 12 moth species in 10 genera), followed by Dilleniaceae (Dilleniales) (used by 11 moth species in six genera). Available data indicate no evidence of phylogenetic conservatism in the Australian Agaristinae; rather, there appears to be a pattern of frequent host shifts and repeated colonisations to distantly related plants.

Consensus species delimitation results found 35 molecular operational taxonomic units (MOTUs) in the COI data and 21 MOTUs in the 28S data. Of the 35 COI MOTUs, there were 17 putative <i>Tetramesa</i> taxa (16 novel southern African taxa and 1 described Northern Hemisphere species, <i>Tetramesa romana</i>), 13 of which showed evidence of specialisation to a single host plant. Comparatively, of the twenty-one 28S MOTUs, there were 5 putative <i>Tetramesa</i> taxa (4 novel southern African taxa and 1 <i>T. romana</i>), all of which showed evidence of host specificity. The dated analysis suggested that the genus <i>Tetramesa</i> originated ~67.1 mya. There was evidence of rapid diversification in the Southern Hemisphere clades between 5 and 15 mya, which coincides with grassland expansions and climatic fluctuations in Africa at the time that may have driven host specialisation.

Many bee species construct nests underground, including the native Australian bee <i>Lasioglossum (Homalictus) dotatum</i>. However, like most ground-nesting bees, their nesting ecology, particularly their substrate preferences and soil surface requirements, remains poorly understood. To address this knowledge gap, this study examined whether <i>L. dotatum</i> prefers nesting in bare sand or amid rock gravel and whether soil treatment influences nest-site selection. Experiments were conducted using 24-L pots of Bassendean sand, placed near active <i>L. dotatum</i> nesting aggregations. Ten pots had a layer of rock gravel, while the remaining 10 were left bare. Within each treatment, half of the pots contained untreated sand, and half contained steam-treated sand to remove potential contaminants. This design tested whether <i>L. dotatum</i> prefers certain soil conditions and surface features when selecting nest sites. Results showed that female <i>L. dotatum</i> preferentially nest in pots with rock gravel over those with bare sand, suggesting that rock cover may create a more favourable environment by moderating temperature, retaining moisture, or providing structural stability for nest entrances. Additionally, females preferred steam-treated sand over untreated sand, possibly indicating that factors associated with untreated soil, such as microbial presence or organic residues, may deter nesting. This study advances our understanding of <i>L. dotatum</i> nesting behaviour and provides a framework for creating pollinator-friendly spaces by identifying key soil and surface features that influence nest-site selection. However, the mechanisms driving their preference for steam-treated sand remain unknown, highlighting the need for further research to distinguish the roles of hygiene, soil properties and potential chemical cues in nest-site selection.</p>","PeriodicalId":8574,"journal":{"name":"Austral Entomology","volume":"64 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/aen.70008","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143826966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This imposed limitations on what could be effectively taught outside of a lab setting, although in many cases these were mitigated through online technology that introduced opportunities to support entomology students. Here, we assess the learning objectives of a range of current entomology courses taught namely in Australia, Aotearoa New Zealand, the United States and Europe. We found that practical hands-on skills, such as identification and curation, and understanding of insect morphology and diversity, often taught via lab activities, are common across many courses. Given the perceived tension between current moves to online educational delivery and these common practical learning objectives in entomology, we present a series of four activities that can be taught via online or distance approaches. These exercises can be used to effectively teach key concepts and skills such as identification, form and function and ecological research skills related to insects.

Evidence is accruing that citizen science participation and activities can have positive impacts on students' environmental awareness and intentions for pro-environmental behaviour changes. In addition, teachers benefit by expanding their knowledge and acquiring new skills, although the influence of participation on teaching practice requires investigation. Incorporating insects into school-based citizen science projects can challenge widespread human misconceptions about insects and their roles in ecosystems, and foster human–insect connections. Given global concerns of rapid insect declines and the overarching biodiversity crisis, insect focussed school-based citizen science projects can ultimately contribute towards equipping students with knowledge of, and actions to promote, insect conservation. In Australia, approximately 33% of insects are formally described, the remainder exist as ‘dark taxa’ to the detriment of environmental and biodiversity management initiatives. The citizen science project Insect Investigators documented insect biodiversity using Malaise traps operated by 50 regional schools across three Australian states. The project's aims were to increase the number of DNA barcodes of Australian arthropods on public databases while inspiring and educating students about entomology and their local biodiversity. Here we describe outcomes of the project based on student (<i>n</i> = 118) and teacher (<i>n</i> = 22) surveys. We explored whether participation in the project influenced (1) students' intention to engage more in 10 pro-environmental (insect–science–nature) activities and (2) teachers' inclusion of environment-related topics in their teaching practice. We also explored participants' attitudes to insects, conservation, and engagement and motivation for citizen science. We found that students' values for the insect–science–nature activities were positively associated with their intentions to engage more in pro-environmental behaviour after participating in the project. As a result of their involvement, students expressed intentions to further engage in insect–science–nature activities, including activities such as ‘acting to-’ and ‘encouraging others to protect nature’. In addition, teachers reported increased intentions to include insect-related topics in their teaching, which was positively associated with students' own intentions for pro-environmental behaviour change—suggesting ‘positive feedback’ between students' engagement and teachers' intentions.
