Allometry of Ingestion Among Habitat Mimicking Praying Mantises
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.We investigate the allometry of ingestion among habitat mimicking praying mantises. We found strong relations to body size, but not camouflage. We compare our results to handling time in other predatory groups. ABSTRACT Ingestion is the process of consuming a resource and is a component of an organism's handling time, which can limit the acquisition of

Cutaneous myiasis in cats and dogs: Cases, predisposing conditions and risk factors
Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2021 Two cases of cutaneous myiasis diagnosed in 2018 in Emilia‐Romagna region (northern Italy) were reported. The first one, described in a domestic cat Felis silvestris catus L. (Carnivora: Felidae) and caused by Calliphora vicina Robineau‐Desvoidy (Diptera:

Rapid ecological and evolutionary divergence during a poleward range expansion
Ecological Monographs, Volume 96, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Understanding how species distributions respond to environmental change is a key question in ecology and evolution. While many species are shifting their ranges, the mechanisms driving the extent and rate of these shifts, and the consequences of their establishment in a novel environment, are often poorly understood.

SYNCAS‐mediated CRISPR‐Cas9 genome editing in the Jewel wasp, Nasonia vitripennis
Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 48-55, February 2026.Maternal injection of Cas9 RNP together with BAPC and saponins (SYNCAS) results in efficient gene editing of Nasonia vitripennis offspring. The timing of injection and egg collection is important for maximising efficiency and reducing screening effort.

Amphibian Strategies Against Attacks by Flies: Host‐Specificity and Threats
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.Species interactions between Diptera flies and amphibians play a significant role in tropical ecosystems, but their ecology and evolution remain understudied. This review explores the costs flies impose on amphibians, such as pathogen transmission and disruption of communication systems, and highlights the evolutionary strategies employed by both ...
