Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract Using a new character matrix composed of revised matrices of previous analyses and new morphological findings, the phylogeny of Malacostraca (Pancrustacea) is analysed anew with 207 characters for 35 terminal taxa across all recognized orders. Particular emphasis was placed on methodological versatility, including different degrees of implied ...

Taxonomical study of laboratory reared first to eight zoeal stages of Lysmata vittata (Stimpson, 1860) (Crustacea: Decapoda: Hippolytidae) [PDF]
Arthropods, 2022 The larvae of Hippolytidae show such diversity that it is impossible to frame any definition which will distinguish them as a whole from other Caridea (Gurney, 1942).

Ecography, EarlyView.Food‐webs are a major component of ecosystems and determinant for their functioning and structure. The food chain length (FCL) is a key feature of food‐webs and it is crucial for the resistance of the community to external stressors. The Southern Ocean (SO) food‐web is known for being short and dominated by an Antarctic krill Euphausia superba surplus,

What Are the Phylogenetic Limits to Pollinator Diversity?
Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Although huge progress has been made over the past 200 years in identifying the diversity of pollinators of angiosperms and other plants, new discoveries continue to be made each year, especially in tropical areas and in the fossil record. In this perspective article I address the following questions: Just how diverse are the pollinators and ...
