Ticks and tick‐borne bacterial pathogens found on hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) on cattle in the Central River region of The Gambia

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
First detection of Ehrlichia minasensis, Anaplasma marginale and hemotropic Mycoplasma spp. in cattle in The Gambia. Identification of four tick species, with Hyalomma marginatum being the most common. 15.6% of ticks tested positive for tick‐borne pathogens, including Ehrlichia spp., A. marginale and hemotropic Mycoplasma spp.

Investigation of the global transportation of Culicoides biting midges, vectors of livestock and equid arboviruses, from flower‐packing plants in Kenya

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Arboviral diseases spread by Culicoides biting midges have been introduced into Europe by unknown means. A possible route is the carriage of midges with cut flowers shipped to flower markets. We sampled Culicoides in and around a cut flower farm in Kenya; midges were caught in the vicinity and a greenhouse, but not where flowers are processed.

Alone no more—Integrative taxonomy of New Zealand odd‐clawed spiders challenges the monotypy of Pianoa and Gradungula (Araneae: Gradungulidae)

Systematic Entomology, EarlyView.
Taxonomic revision of New Zealand Gradungulidae reveals unexpected northern South Island diversity through integrated molecular phylogenetics and targeted field sampling. Two new species formally described — Gradungula kahurangi sp. nov. and Pianoa civis sp. nov. — with revised male genitalia diagnoses for all three New Zealand genera.

The first fossil cyphophthalmid harvestman from Baltic amber [PDF]

, 2011
The first fossil cyphophthalmid harvestman (Opiliones: Cyphophthalmi) from Palaeogene (Eocene) Baltic amber is described. This is only the third fossil example of this basal harvestman lineage; the others being from the probably slightly younger ...

Gene and Genome Duplication in Spiders

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 7, Page 379-393, November 2025.
In chelicerates whole genome duplications (WGDs) were identified in distinct groups. While there is evidence that Xiphosurans/horseshoe crabs had three rounds of WGD and arachnopulmonates (e.g. spiders and scorpions) had one WGD, in many other arachnid groups no WGD was identified.

Insecticidal activity of the linear pseudoscorpion venom peptide Ammogarypin revealed by functional profiling

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Some pseudoscorpions produce venom to subdue prey and their venom components may be of translational interest in agronomy and beyond. However, only very few pseudoscorpion venom peptides have been functionally characterized as of yet.

Amid the fallen leaves: Intense collecting in the Northern Atlantic Forest reveals new minute harvestmen species (Opiliones: Stygnidae) within the Area of Endemism of Pernambuco

Austral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 4, November 2025.
Abstract Stygnids represent one of the most diverse harvestman families, with many endemic species in the Area of Endemism of Pernambuco, a pattern increasingly evident by intensified sampling in the region over the years. The area is also recognised for hosting a group of understudied minute leaf‐litter dwellers stygnids, represented by the following ...
