Sperm Transfer Under Behavioral and Morphological Constraints in the Orb‐Web Spider Genus Argiope

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The polygamous mating system of the orb‐web spider genus Argiope provides a model to study the evolution of sperm transfer under morphological and behavioral constraints. This helps us to understand how male and female behavioral and morphological reproductive traits influence sperm transfer.

Volumetric Comparison of Overall Brain and Neuropil Size Between Social and Non‐social Spiders: Exploring the Social Brain Hypothesis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Brain size may be influenced by the cognitive demands of sociality (social brain hypothesis). We used microCT to compare CNS and brain volumes in social versus solitary huntsman and crab spiders. Social huntsman spiders had larger arcuate and mushroom bodies, while social crab spiders had larger visual neuropils.

Validating a low‐cost alternative to body surface area estimation: Implications for energy budgets and scaling relationships of ectotherms

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract The surface area of organisms is a key parameter in ecological and evolutionary applications. For example, surface area‐dependent traits such as rates of cutaneous water loss and of heat absorbed are relevant for predicting animal desiccation rates and body temperatures.

Acoustic indices are not useful for biodiversity research

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity assessment using passive acoustic monitoring has historically been challenging due to the limited availability of multi‐species acoustic detectors. In this context, acoustic indices were introduced as an alternative way to represent species diversity in acoustic datasets.
