“…Collected insect species were stored as wet (70% ethanol) or dry preservation for further identifcation at the laboratory. Te identifcation of predators at species level was based on reference taxonomic key databases for Coccinella (Dr. J. Poorani), Odonata [28,29], Hymenoptera, spiders [30,31], and Syrphidae [32], and some online databases were also used for the identifcation.…”

Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the most important cereal crops with a diverse set of pests and natural enemies. Rice fields often support a high diversity of arthropods which contribute significantly to productivity. This diversity is frequently threatened due to indiscriminate applications of pesticides. Our aim was to emphasize on the predator diversity in agrochemical exposed rice field as well as on the impact of surrounding vegetation on beneficial insect diversity. Natural enemies’ data were recorded from randomly selected 10 quadrates by visual observation from each treatment. A total of 5,590 individuals of predators were observed during the study period which included 27 species belonging to 16 families from five orders of arthropods during the kharif season of rice. Statistically, there were no significant differences between the population of general natural enemies such as Odonata, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, and Araneae in plots with insecticide and control during the different growth stages of rice cultivation. Diversity indices were almost similar in fields where pesticide was sprayed and not sprayed. Our study concluded that natural enemies are conserved by ensuring crop heterogeneity, growing insect-friendly plants (with high levels of nectar and pollen) as border crops, and judicious application of granule insecticide like cartap hydrochloride in a rice agro-ecosystem.

“…Cropland, salty land, marshy areas, grassland, and salt pans are all present in the area (Dharmakumarsinhji 1978). The Blackbuck National Park (BNP), which is wellknown for its raptor diversity, lesser florican breeding grounds, large herds of blackbuck, and healthy populations of hyenas, Indian wolves, and other some small carnivore species as well as some floral diversity, is located in the Bhal region, which makes Bhal region more significant (Jhala 1991, Gadhvi 2002, Jethva and Jhala 2004a, Vyas and Joshi 2015, Prajapati et al 2020, Desai et al 2022. The region's climate is characterized by an average rainfall of 518 mm and summertime temperatures that range from The Bhal region is prone to monsoon floods and summer droughts, which have an impact on the livelihoods of the people who depend mostly on agriculture and cattle rearing.…”

The Indian grey wolf is a crucial apex predator in India's semi-arid region, but their wide range and elusive behavior make population estimation challenging. Accurate population estimation is essential for effective management and conservation efforts. Our study focused on the bhal region of Gujarat and used local community information validated by ground surveys. Our estimates suggest a population of 64-88 wolves with a density of 0.021-0.029 wolf/km 2 . However, despite the region's continued distribution, it faces numerous threats. To protect the Indian wolf, compensation schemes, community participation, and protection of traditional breeding areas are necessary.

The present article deals with the distribution of one of the spider family Cheiracanthiidae (Araneae: Arachnida), commonly known as yellow sac spiders, in different Indian states and union territories and also provides an update checklist based on the literature published up to September 30, 2020. It includes total 38 species of yellow sac spiders described under only 2 genera in India. The records demonstrated that only four species of these spiders are widely distributed:
