The cryptonephridial/rectal complex: an evolutionary adaptation for water and ion conservation
ABSTRACT Arthropods have integrated digestive and renal systems, which function to acquire and maintain homeostatically the substances they require for survival. The cryptonephridial complex (CNC) is an evolutionary novelty in which the renal organs and gut have been dramatically reorganised. Parts of the renal or Malpighian tubules (MpTs) form a close

Insects flap wings via a complex musculoskeletal system, enabling 3D wingtip trajectory adjustment. Thoracic muscles act on the wing hinge, while wing flexibility enables shape changes. Traditional linear flapping mechanisms can be improved using biomimetic mechanisms introducing wing rotation and passive wing pitch to improve drone performance. Tested

Beetle assemblage distribution along edge–forest gradient in a managed oak forest
Forest ecotone hosted the highest diversity of trophic groups of beetles. Xylophagous, saproxylophagous and pollenophagous beetles exhibited positive association with the shelterwood strip system. According to the fourth‐corner analysis, phytophagous beetles were positively associated with the closed forest, whereas phloephagous beetles were positively
