Published in 2025 at "Insects"

DOI: 10.3390/insects16101066

Abstract: Simple Summary We studied how prey type affects reproduction and lifespan in the endangered tiger beetle Cicindela anchoralis. Tiger beetles fed on crickets (high-P:C) produced more eggs but lived shorter, while those fed on ants… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "PeerJ"

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.19279

Abstract: Stable isotope ratios give insight into food web interactions, but interpretation can be clouded by the timing of isotopic change associated with changes in diet and the difference in isotope ratios between consumers and their… read more here.
