Biological corridors are crucial habitat features that boost biodiversity in agroecological systems of Argentina

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.
Our work shows for the first time in the region that biological corridors increase biodiversity and promote interactions between different components of the production system, using a methodology never before used in Argentina such as the Griffon index.

Chromosomal Diversity as a Predictor of Lineage Diversification in Ants Across Phylogenetic and Geographic Gradients

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate macroevolutionary and biogeographic patterns of chromosome number variation in ants (Formicidae), and to test whether chromosomal diversity is taxonomically structured, associated with species richness, varies with latitude, and accumulates over evolutionary time. Location Global.

Recent Advances in Ant‐Derived Lipids as Emerging Functional Ingredients for Food, Nutraceutical, and Sustainable Bioproduct Applications: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesJournal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Ant lipids provide a viable resource for attaining a sustainable future, due to their low pollution output and their abundance in fatty acids, phospholipids, sterols, and triglycerides. They are employed across multiple industries, including cosmetics, food, and medicines, due to their extensive health benefits, which encompass anticancer, antidiabetic,

Extensive Field Observations Throw Light on the Evolution of Mimicry in Camponotus lateralis (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Camponotus lateralis (C, D) mimics regional color morphs of Crematogaster (A, B). Field trips brought insights into ecology, trail sharing, sexual reproduction, colony foundation, nest defense, and predation pressure of this mimetic ant. We found that the mimicry is Batesian and suggest several preadaptations for its evolution.

Beetle Pollination in the Holoparasitic Lophophytum pyramidale (Balanophoraceae): A New Case of Brood‐Pollination Mutualism?

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 10, Page 1542-1554, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Beetle pollination is considered an ancestral trait in angiosperms, retained in a few specialised families engaging in longstanding interactions with ancient groups of beetles. While beetles represent some of the earliest angiosperm pollinators, there is also increasing evidence that some beetle‐pollinated plants represent a derived condition.
