First record of Atypophthalmus umbratus (Diptera, Limoniidae) from Central Europe, a species introduced accidentally throughout global trade of exotic plants [PDF]

open access: yesTravaux du Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle “Grigore Antipa”
Here we report the first data of the exotic Atypophthalmus umbratus (de Meijere, 1911) from two Central European countries, Romania and Hungary. This is the first time that the presence of an introduced exotic species of Limoniidae (Diptera) has been ...

Aquatic Diversity and Fishing Practices at Tell Tayinat (Türkiye) in the Iron Age

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While agrarian societies of the Iron Age Eastern Mediterranean relied predominantly on crops and herding of domestic stock for subsistence, local wild aquatic fauna offered a welcomed enrichment, and when opportunities occurred, it could have been a staple in the human diet.

Integrating vision, audition and olfaction traits: a roadmap for contrasting sensory ecologies of birds and rodents

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Sensory ecology seeks to understand how organisms detect and use information from their environment, yet comparative analyses across multiple sensory modalities remain rare. Here, we present a roadmap for contrasting the sensory ecologies of birds and rodents using surrogate morphological and acoustic traits associated with vision, audition, and ...

Records of Japanese Crane-Flies (Diptera)

open access: yesAnnals of the Entomological Society of America, 1918
The crane-fly fauna of Japan is a very interesting one but much remains to be ascertained before we can possess a clear conception of the actual faunal constituents of the islands. The published records are grievously incomplete and comparatively few extensive collections have been made.

Robotics for Crop Pollination: Recent Advances and Future Direction

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is great interest in alternative pollination strategies for crop production in the face of climate change and perennial threats to the traditional pollination mechanisms. This review explores the potential of robotic pollination as a promising solution to these challenges affecting crop fertilization, agricultural sustainability, and ...

Accounting for animal movement during aerial imaging surveys

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Animals are not stationary during aerial surveys; if their movements are related to the movement of the aerial platform, then bias can be introduced into subsequent population count estimates. We sought to establish a framework for assessing the impacts of animal movement on count error and platform bias by comparing aggregated counts and relative ...
