Active Filtration of Airborne eDNA for Vertebrate Surveys in Tropical Caves
ABSTRACT Hidden from sunlight, caves are remarkable subterraneous ecosystems that host a wide range of animals, including unique species. Conventional cave biodiversity surveys can be physically challenging, disturb sensitive vertebrate communities, or require animal collection.

A Museum‐Curated, Voucher‐Backed 12S Barcode Reference Library for Fishes of the Ecuadorian Amazon
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an emerging method that promises to expedite and improve biodiversity surveys by identifying species from the genetic material they shed into the environment. eDNA methods offer many advantages over conventional specimen‐based surveys, but their effectiveness hinges on reference libraries, which for ...

ABSTRACT Fireflies are semelparous beetles whose immature stages are largely unknown. The comparatively few larvae known span diverse ecological niches, such as ground‐dwellers, aquatic (freshwater or marine), semi‐aquatic and arboreal. Psilocladus costae Vaz, Silveira & Rosa, 2020—a bromeliad dweller—is the only species of its genus and subfamily in ...

New Host Records for Two Genera of Xenidae (Insecta: Strepsiptera) From Brazil
ABSTRACT Xenidae is one of the major families within the order Strepsiptera. However, studies expanding our knowledge of Xenidae hosts remain scarce, despite their importance. This situation is particularly pronounced in Brazil, given that no new hosts have been reported for some genera for at least 42 years. In this study, we report for the first time

Run to the Caves: Frog Refuges From Harsh Environments
ABSTRACT The use of caves by primarily nontroglobiont organisms can be critical when the conditions of surrounding epigean habitats deteriorate as a result of synergic effects of climate changes and degradation of native vegetation cover. Under scenarios of unbalanced temperatures, high solar incidence, low humidity and reduced shelter availability in ...
