Effects of landscape complexity and stand factors on arthropod communities in poplar forests
We examined the combined effects of landscape complexity and stand factors on poplar arthropod communities. We found that the proportion of nonhost plants and habitat diversity negatively influence poplar defoliators at the scale of 200 m, but they have no effects on predators.

Beetles, barcodes and big data: A deep dive into the phylogeny of Harpalinae (Carabidae)
The largest phylogenetic study of the Carabidae to date is provided with a focus on the Harpalinae. Using novel mitogenomes with a site‐based approach combined with data mining from GenBank and BOLD, we achieve dense coverage of the major Harpalinae sensu lato clades.

IBP′: A New Index to Estimate Biogeographical Peculiarity
The biogeographical peculiarity of a given geographical area is directly linked to the number of its endemic species. This paper aims to formulate an index directly linked to the biogeographical peculiarity of an area. A graphical model and an index of the biogeographical peculiarity are proposed, based on a cumulative sum (i.e., including all the ...

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