ABSTRACT The coevolutionary radiation of 27 species of Tetraopes longhorned beetles and their Asclepias milkweed hosts represents a classic example of adaptive evolution driven by plant chemical defences and herbivore counteradaptations. Investigations to date, however, have focused on a single species, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus, which feeds on the ...

Acute Urticaria as the Sole Manifestation of Dengue Fever: A Rare Case Report
ABSTRACT Urticaria is a very uncommon dermatological manifestation of infection by the dengue virus. It can hinder diagnosis since some of its features overlap with allergic conditions, such as maculopapular and petechial rashes. We present a case of a 32‐year‐old male, resident of a dengue‐endemic area, who presented with an acute onset of generalized

The central complex is a group of midline‐spanning neuropils in the brain of insects with a key role in goal‐directed orientation and navigation. Immunolabeling in 25 species, ranging from bristletails to flies, shows that neurons containing peptides of the tachykinin family of neuropeptides are present in most species studied.

Clashing in Murky Waters: On Amphibian Mosquito Suppression
This study compares the predator efficiency of common European amphibian species to common invertebrate mosquito predators. Focusing on the cosmopolitan mosquito Culex pipiens, known for transmitting pathogens like West Nile virus, we assessed predator rates, sex‐specific efficiency in amphibians, and the impact of predator presence on mosquito ...

Konza Prairie Biological Station, located within one of the largest remaining areas of native tallgrass prairie, is unique in that grazing and prescribed burn treatments, as well as surface water permanence, vary spatially. We found that aquatic macroinvertebrate communities vary with streamflow permanence, but not grazing presence or prescribed burns ...
