A Mermithid Nematode in Naiads of Damselflies (Odonata: Coenagrionidae)
An undescribed species of the mermithid nematode genus Amphimermis was found parasitizing damselfly naiads in southwestern Louisiana. This is the first record of Amphimermis infecting insects in North America and also the first record of mermithids in damselflies. Parasitism ranged up to 81% in individual collections and was always lethal to the hosts.

Paleopteran molecular clock: Time drift and recent acceleration
Constant evolution rates, which form the foundation of the strict molecular clock model, do not apply in the case of Paleoptera, highlighting a notable bias in the molecular clock hypothesis.
