Pleistocene steppe-tundra insect communities of Beringia

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research
The fossil insect fauna of Beringia contributes to our knowledge of the unique Pleistocene steppe-tundra biota. The Beringia insect database facilitated an ecological analysis and comparison of entomofaunas between Western and Eastern Beringia.

Domestic Arthropods and Their Allergens

open access: yesProtein & Peptide Letters, 2007
Allergy prevalence has increased worldwide over the last 25 years along with industrialization and westernized lifestyles. Indoor allergens are primarily responsible for the sensitization and development of atopic diseases. The main indoor allergens are known to be derived from various arthropods which account for up to 80% of the kingdom Animalia. The

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Larvicidal Activity of Phytochemicals From Handroanthus impetiginosus Seeds Against Culex quinquefasciatus

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
The hexane extract was obtained from the seeds of H. impetiginosus, from which fatty acids and FAMEs were obtained. The three samples were tested on C. quinquefasciatus larvae, promoting mortality with moderate LC50 values. The hexane extract was analyzed by gas chromatographymass spectrometry (GC‐MS), and the most abundant compounds were ethyl oleate (

Single‐cell sequencing reveals potential novel insights into appendage‐patterning and joint‐development in a spider

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...

Quantifying landscape‐level biodiversity change in an island ecosystem: a 50‐year assessment of shifts in the Hawaiian avian community

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Hawaii has experienced profound declines in native avifauna alongside the introduction of numerous bird species. While site‐specific population studies are common, landscape‐level analyses of avian population dynamics are rare, particularly in island ecosystems. To address this gap, we used a density surface model to create a spatio‐temporal projection

A systematic review evaluating the performance of eDNA methods relative to conventional methods for biodiversity monitoring

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The rapid adoption of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods has drastically changed biodiversity monitoring efforts. It is often claimed that eDNA methods are more sensitive and efficient than conventional biodiversity monitoring methods, but it is often unclear what metrics support this claim.

Variable Coordination of Peroxide in a Dinuclear Copper Mono‐Oxygenase Model Complex Supported by a Pyridazine‐Bridged Ligand

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Variable coordination of peroxide: The reaction of the Cu(I) complex‐based on the BPMPD ligand with O2 at low temperatures initially led to a μ‐1,2 peroxo species (Cu2O2). By addition of an acid (lutidinium triflate), this species can be reversibly converted into a μ‐1,1‐hydroperoxo complex, which is monitored using UV/Vis spectroscopy and X‐ray ...
