A bittersweet end @marsdenfund.bsky.social. I'm so fortunate to have been a multiple recipient & contributor to the EEB panel. I'm truly inspired by the spectacular fundamental research ideas put forward by NZ researchers & I look forward to the day this is once again valued by our government!🧪🌐🔬🥼 🇳🇿
End of an exhausting but highly rewarding day for the very last (ever!) EEB panel meeting of the Marsden Fund

🦋🏔️ New article: How do arthropod traits shift with elevation? Across four groups in Italy's Vinschgau Valley, orthopterans and butterflies lose trait diversity higher up, while ants gain it. 🐜 DOI: doi.org/10.1016/j.ba... @gfoesoc.bsky.social
Fig. 1. The distribution of the traits body length, feeding type, wing development, and hibernation type of carabid beetles along Alpine elevation sites in Matsch/Mazia, South Tyrol (Italy). Numerical variables show mean CWM values of the variable per elevation and were tested with Kruskal Wallis rank-sum test (added in legend) followed by pairwise-Wilcoxon test. Categorical variables were also tested with Kruskal Wallis rank-sum test followed by pairwise Dunn test (significant results are shown with small letters). Credits for the icon: Eurac Research.Fig. 6. Overlap of pairs of hypervolumes indicated by the Sørensen index (0–1, where 1 is maximal similarity and 0 is no similarity). (A) The graph shows three comparisons on the X-axis of adjacent elevations, and (B) shows three comparisons along elevation starting always from the lowest elevation (1000 m) to all other elevations. (C) The photograph shows the silhouette of the actual sampled elevation sites in the LT(S)ER area "Matsch/Mazia". Please note: the lower part of the 1000 m was artificially extended due to perspectival reasons, and the locations of the sampling plots on this silhouette (yellow squares) are symbolic and do not represent their real location.

🌾🐛 New #BAAE article: Hidden insect food webs thrive inside perennial grass shoots 🌿 Longer shoots host richer herbivore–parasitoid communities. Unmown refuges are key to protecting these overlooked specialists. 🕷️ DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.baae.2026.01.004 @gfoesoc.bsky.social
Fig. 1. The relationship between mean shoot length per grass species to species richness of the endophytic insects found in these shoots.

A The number of herbivore species, B the sum of herbivore and parasitoid species. The five points indicating no species at all indicate that no one insect species has been reared from the five annual grass species studied, despite intensive shoot sampling (see Table 1). The inquilines of P. australis are included (see Table 2, see also Fig. S2A and S2B for regressions without inquilines). Regression lines were fitted to the species richness found in the ten perennial grass species.Fig. 2. Images illustrating the insect community of the shoot-inhabiting gall midge Giraudiella inclusa on Common Reed Phragmites australis.

A Phragmites australis reedbelt with the ricegrain-like galls of Giraudiella inclusa inside internodes.
B The gall midge Giraudiella inclusa: Oviposition, C Early Giraudiella gall development, D late Giraudiella gall development,
E the Giraudiella parasitoid Torymus arundinis ovipositing, F the gregarious Giraudiella parasitoid Aprostocetus calamarius,
G T. arundinis eggs on a dead 2nd instar host larva, H the conspicuously hairy, solitary T. arundinis larva, I midge skin filled with pupae of the gregarious Platygaster szelenii, J the solitary parasitoid Platygaster cf. quadrifarius (Tscharntke et al. 1991).
