Exciting day with all UK bee lovers at the Bumblebee Working Group - 1st time ever for me! Enjoyed a brilliant presentation by @tegangaetano.bsky.social on bees liking salty treats - up to a certain point! 🐝🧂🌸

Evolutionary implications of a deep-time perspective on insect pollination – a new review just published When we think of pollination, we often picture bees buzzing around flowers or butterflies flitting from bloom to bloom. This relationship between plants and pollinators is one of the most well-know…

In a review led by Spanish researchers David Peris and Ricardo Pérez-de la Fuente, we explored why a deep time perspective on insect pollination is relevant to our current understanding of plant-pollinator relationships. Read more here:

Spent the year doing what we love the most and won’t stop in 2025! We’ll be busy prepping to host #ISBE2026 in Turin and getting started with an exciting #FIS funded project on thermal reproduction of field crickets. Watch out - phd and postdoc positions opening soon!

Figure from a paper - legend: Figure 2. Measuring changes in insect biodiversity can be achieved by focusing on drivers that directly or indirectly impact insect biodiversity metrics and trends (left). Where data on insect populations specifically are unavailable, data from other species and ecological processes can provide inferential support for changes in insect biodiversity (right).

Our new paper led by @manusaunders.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... takes stock of the evidence-base for global insect declines 🦋🐝🪳🪰🦗 and how uncertainty is being leveraged by science denialists to undermine efforts to reverse biodiversity loss 🌍🧪.
