In many species, migration can either increase or reduce parasite prevalence depending on migratory culling and dropout. The relationship between migration and infectious disease in monarch butterflies has been investigated, and it was found that migration can decrease parasite prevalence resulting in the loss of millions of monarchs. The remaining questions highlight the influence of migration on genetics, the interference of resident populations with migration, and the impact of infection on migratory cognition.
In many species, migration can increase parasite burdens or diversity as hosts move between diverse habitats with different parasite assemblages. On the other hand, migration can reduce parasite prevalence by letting animals escape infested habitats, or by exacerbating the costs of parasitism, leading to culling or dropout. How the balance between these negative and positive interactions is maintained or how they will change under anthropogenic pressure remains poorly understood. Here, we summarize the relationship between migration and infectious disease in monarch butterflies, finding that migration can reduce parasite prevalence through a combination of migratory culling and dropout. Because parasite prevalence has risen in recent decades, these processes are now resulting in the loss of tens of millions of monarchs. We highlight the remaining questions, asking how migration influences population genetics and virulence, how the establishment of resident populations interferes with migration, and whether infection can interfere with migratory cognition.

An integrative framework for tick management: the need to connect wildlife science, One Health, and interdisciplinary perspectives
Erika Machtinger, Karen C. Poh, Risa Pesapane, Danielle M. Tufts
Summary: Vector-borne diseases, transmitted by insects, are a significant threat to global human and animal health. Their emergence is influenced by factors such as environmental changes, host characteristics, and human behavior. The One Health approach is necessary to comprehensively investigate tick-borne diseases and understand the complex interactions between environmental, animal, and human health.

Genomic signatures of eusocial evolution in insects
Alina A. Mikhailova, Sarah Rinke, Mark C. Harrison
Summary: The genomes of eusocial insects allow the production and regulation of highly distinct phenotypes, largely independent of genotype. Eusociality has evolved convergently in at least three insect orders, but eusocial phenotypes show remarkable similarity. Increased regulatory complexity and the adaptive evolution of chemical communication are common genomic signatures of eusociality. Colony life itself can shape genomes of divergent taxa in a similar manner.

The diversification of butterfly wing patterns: progress and prospects
Dequn Teng, Wei Zhang
Summary: Butterfly wings, with their rich phenotypic diversity and complex biological functions, serve as a crucial system for studying the genetic basis and evolution of phenotypic diversification. Recent studies have revealed the complex functions and genetic and environmental factors involved in determining wing patterns. These factors lead to inter-specific divergence, genetic polymorphism, and phenotypic plasticity, often controlled by key genes. Gene co-option has also been identified as an important mechanism for functional complexity and evolutionary novelty. However, further research is needed for a systematic and comprehensive understanding.
