Experience Improves Spatial Foraging Performance in a Complex Environment in Heliconius Butterflies
We experimentally tested whether prior experience in a spatially complex environment influences foraging performance in the pollen‐feeding butterfly Heliconius erato. Butterflies reared in a structurally complex environment efficiently reached a feeder under both familiar and unfamiliar conditions, whereas those reared in a simple environment performed

We developed and validated a copy number variation (CNV)‐based molecular method to accurately determine the sex of immature ticks, Ixodes scapularis and Rhipicephalus microplus, which lack morphological sexual dimorphism. Using qPCR and ddPCR assays targeting female‐enriched genes, sex was reliably identified from DNA extracted non‐destructively from a

Envenomation Leads to Venom Protein Reduction and a Recovery Period in Bumblebee Workers
The evolution and deployment of venom systems in social bees have been central to their ecological success, though not without costs. However, for species such as bumblebees, where stinging is not apparently fatal, it raises the question of what, if any, are the consequences associated with venom usage (envenomation).

Functional variation in butterfly egg pore traits: The potential role of climate
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Immobile eggs of terrestrial animals are exposed to variable environmental conditions. Insect egg pores, critical for gas exchange (aeropyles) and fertilisation (micropyles), are ecologically important yet understudied.
