@riseagainstevil This was not a farm murder.

Two more farmers erased.

Social media and citizen science platforms can be central in the early detection of invasive/alien species dispersal - like with the spread in Europe of the Egyptian Praying Mantis (Miomantis paykullii) and the European Dwarf Mantis (Ameles spallanzania): doi.org/10.3897/jor.34…

#ICE2028 will be hosted by the @entsocsa and the African Association of Insect Scientists and will be held in Cape Town in June 2028. The logo is a toktokkie beetle, a much-loved African beetle, and inspired by Ndebele patterns and colours.

CORRECTION: On Monday, News24 published a story based on a Food Lover's Market marketing video after people experienced the video as racist. We approached Jan Braai and angled the story around his denial of the racism allegations that stemmed from the video, which were already in the public domain. As soon as the more fulsome CCTV footage came to light, we updated the story. In hindsight, News24 should have insisted on seeing the full CCTV footage of the event before publishing a story about the honestly held views of readers, based on partial video footage released by Food Lover's Market. We apologise to Jan Braai and the other individuals involved. - Editor brnw.ch/21wN5d2

The CBC has a new manuscript in Ecological Modelling! Clarke van Steenderen and Guy Sutton showed how MaxEnt models can vary in their output depending on the combination of climate variables used as predictors. sciencedirect.com/.../pii/S03043… Comic drawn by Clarke.

We are excited and delighted to announce that we have successfully bid to host the XXVIII International Congress of Entomology in Cape Town, South Africa, in 2028! Many thanks to the efforts of our bid committee and delegation, and supporters and partners to make this happen!

The UESM at the 6th Biennial Conference of the Southern Africa Society for Disaster Reduction ⛈️🌪️🌀 11 papers were presented, and researchers participated in round table discussions, chaired meetings and lead discussions. #DisasterReduction #disasterriskscience

In my view this is a very important paper. @maoviedogarcia has been posting about this for months (see buff.ly/3XdVzWi , if you have 𝕏) and it is very good to see a peer reviewed paper that explains her findings. Great work - keep it up. buff.ly/4dqYrEn

. Who runs this 𝕏 account and the associated web site? We have always said that we would say who is behind this 𝕏 account, and our web site, once we reached 10,000 followers. In June, due to a post going viral, we sailed past that target which, to be honest, caught us by surprise. We thought we had a few months to go, but that was not the case. Since that time, we have been playing catch up, but we said a couple of weeks ago that we would go public on the 17 Aug 2024. So, as the day has arrived, here is who we are: predatory-publishing.com/about-us/
