Pollinators are critical for food production and ecosystem function. Although native pollinators thought to be declining, the evidence is limited. This first, taxonomically diverse assessment mainland North America north of Mexico reveals that 22.6% (20.6 29.6%) 1,579 species in best-studied vertebrate insect pollinator groups have elevated risk extinction. All three pollinating bat at bees group most (best estimate, 34.7% 472 assessed, range 30.3 43.0%). Substantial numbers butterflies (19.5% 632 species, 19.1 21.0%) moths (16.1% 142 15.5 19.0%) also risk, with flower flies (14.7% 295 11.5 32.9%), beetles (12.5% 18 11.1 22.2%), hummingbirds (0% 17 species) more secure. At-risk concentrated where diversity highest, southwestern United States. Threats vary geographically: climate change West North, agriculture Great Plains, pollution, agriculture, urban development East. Woodland, shrubland/chaparral, grassland habitats support greatest at-risk pollinators. Strategies improving habitat increasingly available, this study identifies habitats, threats need conservation actions state, provincial, territorial, national, continental levels.

Introduction The United States Endangered Species Act celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2023. As a hallmark piece of environmental legislation, the has successfully prevented extinction hundreds species. During these last 50 years, we have observed decline many species invertebrates, resulting listing 356 Methods Here, summarize state endangered invertebrates using text mining to review all documents, including decisions, status assessments, critical habitat designations, and reviews. In our review, evaluate most prevalent threats for aquatic terrestrial invertebrates. Results We found that been assessed listed consistently past eight years seen an uptick Further, find pollution, natural system modifications (such as dams), intrinsic factors small population sizes or number populations) are major contributing On other hand, problematic biotic invasive species), climate change, residential commercial development, pollution Discussion Overall, study reviews current provides baseline next face shifting threat conservation arena.

ABSTRACT Pesticide risk assessments currently rely on surrogate species and focus primarily acute lethality metrics, failing to capture the broader impacts non‐target organisms thus biodiversity. Under directives of regulatory agencies worldwide, this traditional approach overlooks complex interactions between multiple stressors, including climate change, land‐use shifts, pesticide transformation products. must therefore undergo a paradigm shift account for these interactions, which disproportionately affect insect pollinators, other species, biodiversity at large. While prior work has highlighted need move beyond single‐species models, emerging evidence nonlinear stressor ecological consequences products highlight critical gaps in current frameworks. Here, we synthesize insights from recent research propose holistic environmental that integrates evolutionary complexities context global change.

Abstract Honey bees, essential pollinators for a wide range of important crops, are currently at risk from exposure to neonicotinoid insecticides. In this study we assessed the impact two most commonly used insecticides namely imidacloprid and thiamethoxam on honey bee, Apis cerana through controlled feeding experiment doses 15 ng/bee, 30 60 ng/bee 120 ng/bee. Mortality was recorded 4, 8, 18, 24 48 h after At h, @ caused 43.75 72.50 % mortality, respectively. After 18 thiamethoxam, mortality rates reached 82.5 87.5 %, Significant, dose-dependent effects bee were observed over time, with highest concentrations (120 ng/bee) producing pronounced effects. Furthermore, prolonged lower (15 induced adverse such as trembling impaired coordination in bees. Overall, differences toxicity between largely non-significant across durations. Field studies foraging activity suggested that can negatively behavior. Three days sucrose spiked 0.28 mg/kg, dropped 62.67 bees per 10 min before treatment 6.76 min. These findings emphasize importance addressing harmful neonicotinoids which both their behavior survival, particularly exposure.
