Maritime midge radiations in the Pacific Ocean (Diptera: Chironomidae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 111-126, January 2023., 2023
We identify and confirm eight transitions from freshwater to the marine realm in the Chironomidae, based on a fossil‐calibrated phylogenetic framework. We recognise for the first time an unexpected but robust sister group of Pontomyia to be a new clade of exclusively marine species, Yaetanytarsus, forming the sister group to the diverse and global ...

Sandstone-rich Lower Cretaceous strata tend to form a northeast-trending belt, extending from the Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, through the northern Richardson Mountains, and across the northern

Patterns of morphological evolution in the raptorial appendages of praying mantises

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This study traces changes in the morphology of the forelegs across fossil and extant dictyopterans to understand their evolution from cursorial limbs to the raptorial morphologies of mantodeans. Two new mantodean specimens preserved in amber are described herein.

Foraging by predatory ants: A review

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This review focuses on ecological and behavioral characteristics of foraging in ants showing the wide diversity of cases. Most ants can feed on sugary substances, but some ground‐nesting species are strict predators. Except army ants during the nomadic phase, they are central‐place foragers that can recruit nestmates when necessary. They prey mostly on
