The “elongate chelicera problem”: A virtual approach in an extinct pterygotid sea scorpion from a 3D kinematic point of view

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.
How pterygotid sea scorpions used their tripartite elongate cheliceres to get prey items close to the mouth region remains a conundrum. We applied four different 3D kinematic settings with regard to insertion and orientation of the cheliceres to examine the most likely way this was realized.

Pest categorisation of Calepitrimerus baileyi

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Bailey's rust mite, Calepitrimerus baileyi Keifer (Acariformes: Eriophyidae), following the commodity risk assessment of Malus domestica plants from Türkiye performed by EFSA, in which C. baileyi was identified as a pest of possible concern to the European Union.

Effect of spatial variation on salinity tolerance of macroinvertebrates in Eastern Australia and implications for ecosystem protection trigger values [PDF]

, 2008
Salinisation of freshwater has been identified as a serious environmental issue in Australia and around the world. Protective concentrations (trigger values) for salinity can be used to manage salinity impacts, though require locally relevant salinity ...

Host space, not energy or symbiont size, constrains feather mite abundance across passerine bird species

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 93, Issue 4, Page 393-405, April 2024.
Why some host species hold larger symbiont abundances than others is an open question in ecology. Comparison of the empirical scaling of feather mite abundance with predictions from the metabolic theory of ecology showed that space (number of feather barbs of bird species), and not energy, was the main constraint to feather mite infracommunities ...

Lethal and sublethal effects of carlina oxide on Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) and Neoseiulus californicus (Acari: Phytoseiidae)

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 3, Page 967-977, March 2024.
Carlina oxide is very toxic toward mobile stages of Tetranychus urticae, also showing a high ovicidal effect even at low concentrations. By contrast, it is harmless for the phytoseiid Neoseiulus californicus but a strong repellent effect was recorded during the first 48 h. Abstract BACKGROUND Tetranychus urticae Koch, is a polyphagous and damaging pest,
