Context-dependent avoidance of predatory centipedes by nocturnal geckos (Oedura lesueurii)
, 2010 Most research on the anti-predator behaviour of vertebrate prey has focused on their responses to vertebrate predators. Nonetheless, invertebrates are abundant predators in terrestrial ecosystems, and some invertebrates (e.g., centipedes, spiders) attack

FlexMat, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 452-501, September 2026.Abstract Soft robots, engineered from highly compliant materials, offer superior adaptability and safety in unstructured environments compared to their rigid counterparts. Recent advancements, fueled by bio‐inspiration and material programmability, have led to the rapid co‐evolution of their core modules: actuation, sensing, protection, energy, and ...

Hay-bait traps are a useful tool for sampling of soil dwelling millipedes and centipedes
ZooKeys, 2015 Some species of centipedes and millipedes inhabit upper soil layers exclusively and are not recorded by pitfall trapping. Because of their sensitivity to soil conditions, they can be sampled quantitatively for evaluation of soil conditions.

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations
Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 1256-1284, August 2026.This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...
