Biotremology in arthropods [PDF]
Learning & Behavior, 2020 AbstractEffective communication is essential in animal life to allow fundamental behavioral processes and survival. Communicating by surface-borne vibrations is likely the most ancient mode of getting and exchanging information in both invertebrates and vertebrates. In this review, we concentrate on the use of vibrational communication in arthropods as

Development, 2019 ABSTRACT There is now compelling evidence that many arthropods pattern their segments using a clock-and-wavefront mechanism, analogous to that operating during vertebrate somitogenesis. In this Review, we discuss how the arthropod segmentation clock generates a repeating sequence of pair-rule gene expression, and how this is converted ...

Parasites and blood-meal hosts of the tsetse fly in Tanzania: a metagenomics study
Parasites & Vectors, 2022 Background Tsetse flies can transmit various Trypanosoma spp. that cause trypanosomiasis in humans, wild animals, and domestic animals. Amplicon deep sequencing of the 12S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene can be used to detect mammalian tsetse hosts, and the ...

New stiletto flies from New Caledonia (Therevidae, Agapophytinae) [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2020 Stiletto-flies (Diptera: Therevidae) are highly diverse and species-rich in Australia and New Zealand, yet relatively few species have been recorded from neighbouring Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and throughout the remainder of Oceania.

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2020 Background The process of speciation involves differentiation of whole genome sequences between a pair of diverging taxa. In the absence of a geographic barrier and in the presence of gene flow, genomic differentiation may occur when the homogenizing ...

iSeq 100 for metagenomic pathogen screening in ticks
Parasites & Vectors, 2021 Background Ticks are blood-sucking ectoparasites that play a pivotal role in the transmission of various pathogens to humans and animals. In Korea, Haemaphysalis longicornis is the predominant tick species and is recognized as the vector of pathogens ...

The longicorn beetle tribe Cerambycini Latreille, 1802 (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Cerambycinae) in the fauna of Asia. 10. A new species of the genus Mimimbrius Miroshnikov, 2017 from Borneo [PDF]
Кавказский энтомологический бюллетень, 2019 A new species, Mimimbrius sabahensis Miroshnikov et Heffern, sp. n., is described from Borneo. It is especially similar to M. dembickyi Miroshnikov, 2017 inhabiting Southern Thailand, but differs clearly by the somewhat peculiar sculpture of the ...
