Spatiotemporal assessment of benthic macroinvertebrate communities in the Bermejo River Basin in the Ecuadorian Amazonia

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 371-380, June 2025.
Abstract The Cofán communities rely on the Cofán Bermejo Ecological Reserve for their survival and cultural practices. Due to the rugged and inaccessible topography of the reserve in the Northern Ecuadorian Amazon region, limited biomonitoring and ecological characterization studies of the ecosystem health have been conducted.

Diet and Feeding Behavior of the Solpugid, Eremobates Palpisetulosus (Solpugida: Eremobatidae)

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 100, Issue 3-4, Page 151-162, 1993., 1993
Eremobates palipsetulosus is a generalist predator which preys upon a wide variety of arthropods and seems to prefer smaller, soft‐bodied prey items. Spiders as welt as orthopteran, lepidopteran and coleopteran insects comprise 76% of the total diet. When a prey item is encountered, the palpi are used to pull the prey toward the chelicerae. The prey is

Unlikely allies: Camel crickets play a role in the seed dispersal of an Asian autotrophic shrub

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 494-501, May 2025.
Dust seeds, which are minute and contain minimal energy reserves, are often associated with heterotrophy (plants that obtain carbon without photosynthesis). Consequently, previous studies have mainly focused on the relationships between dust seeds and heterotrophy. However, dust seeds are also found in green plants.

The moulting arthropod: a complete genetic toolkit review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 2338-2375, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Exoskeletons are a defining character of all arthropods that provide physical support for their segmented bodies and appendages as well as protection from the environment and predation. This ubiquitous yet evolutionarily variable feature has been instrumental in facilitating the adoption of a variety of lifestyles and the exploitation of ...

First record of the lobster cockroach Nauphoeta cinerea (Olivier, 1789) (Insecta: Blattodea) in Europe with remarks on synanthropic cockroaches of the Iberian Peninsula

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 9, Page 1132-1143, November 2024.
Abstract Globalization has facilitated the introduction and establishment of organisms beyond their natural ranges, leading to significant ecological and economic consequences. While many non‐native species are well documented, others remain understudied, either due to their unknown impact or morphological similarities with native species.

Deep sequencing of organ- and stage-specific microRNAs in the evolutionarily basal insect Blattella germanica (L.) (Dictyoptera, Blattellidae). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: microRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported as key regulators at post-transcriptional level in eukaryotic cells. In insects, most of the studies have focused in holometabolans while only recently two hemimetabolans (Locusta migratoria and ...
