Harvesting the Casualties of War: Macrogerodonia peruviana Rove Beetles Prey Exclusively Upon Wounded Trigona spp. Stingless Bees (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae; Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We report a previously undescribed trophic interaction in which Macrogerodonia peruviana rove beetles prey exclusively on wounded or recently killed Trigona stingless bees generated during aggressive conflicts at carrion. Field observations and choice experiments showed that beetles selectively targeted injured Trigona while ignoring carrion and other ...

Multispecies Niche Overlap: Moving Beyond Pairwise Metrics to Understand Community‐Wide Similarities in Resource Use

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Measures of niche overlap are important tools in various ecological and evolutionary studies. Here we create and apply a multispecies overlap metric to both simulated and empirical communities, illustrating how this methodology may capture interactions and structure of niche space in ways that traditional, pairwise metrics overlook.

Diversity of Resilin Incidence in the Insect Leg

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 6, June 2026.
Resilin incidences in the insect cuticle are commonly detected by fluorescence microscopy using the property of Resilin protein matrices to emit blue light after excitation with UV light. This indirect method produces significant background signal.

The Role of Neonatal Ward Environment as a Reservoir for the Dissemination of Multidrug‐Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in Algeria

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
Whole‐genome sequencing of multidrug‐resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from a neonatal ward environment in Chlef revealed persistent resistance genes and the clonal spread of high‐risk ST13. These findings highlight the hospital environment as a potential reservoir for transmission of resistant K. pneumoniae.
