Development, predation, and prey preference of Chrysoperla externa on Liorhyssus hyalinus and Nysius simulans, two emerging pests of quinoa Ghent University
In recent years, Liorhyssus hyalinus (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Rhopalidae) and Nysius simulans Stal (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae) have emerged as important pests of quinoa in Peru, when the crop started to be cultivated at relatively low elevations.

Pytho depressus (Linnaeus, 1767): A rare and sporadically distributed beetle in Belgium (Coleoptera: Pythidae) Research Institute for Nature and Forest
In this article, we report on the widespread Palearctic species, Pytho depressus (Linnaeus, 1767), in Belgium. We present the current distribution data of P. depressus in Belgium and unravel and interpret its distribution and habitat. Based on the limited observations, Pytho depressus seems to be rare and sporadic.
