An improved method for the culture of wing discs of the wingless bagworm moth, Eumeta variegata (Lepidoptera: Psychidae) [PDF]
Adults of the wingless bagworm moth, Eumeta variegata, show remarkable sexual dimorphism. Final-instar larvae of the male have invaginated wing discs, whereas those of the female are rudimentary.

The developmental process during metamorphosis that results in wing reduction in females of three species of wingless-legged bagworm moths, Taleporia trichopterella, Bacotia sakabei and Proutia sp. (Lepidoptera: Psychidae) [PDF]
There are several evolutionary grades of wing reduction in female bagworm moths of the family Psychidae. In this family, female adults of Taleporia trichopterella, Bacotia sakabei and Proutia sp.

Even small forest patches increase bee visits to flowers in an oil palm plantation landscape
We observed bee visits to flowers of six plant species within an oil palm plantation in Indonesian Borneo. Visitation frequency decreased with distance from forest and was highest for flowers near large, continuous forests compared to a small forest fragment.

Molecular diet analysis of neotropical bats based on fecal DNA metabarcoding
Inferring the exact diets of small, nocturnal mammals such as bats is notoriously difficult. Limited knowledge of what bats actually eat leaves important trophic interactions and food web networks unclear. Using molecular barcoding of plants, vertebrates, and invertebrates, we report fine‐scale dietary detection for 25 species of Belizean bats ...

Skipping sex: A nonrecombinant genomic assemblage of complementary reproductive modules
Asexuality arises through developmental alterations with apparently unrelated origins. We show the occurrence of asexual animals and plants have a common genetic and developmental basis on a single nonrecombinant assemblage of genomic elements altering complementary reproductive modules.
