Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Aphelonyx cerricola and the different stages that make this gall colonizable by ants. ABSTRACT Wasps of the family Cynipidae are known to induce galls of a species‐specific morphology, which during senescence provide a refuge for secondary insect fauna, especially ants.

New Results From the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic Site of Al Uyaynah, Tabuk, in Northwestern Saudi Arabia
Arabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Al Uyaynah is a low sandstone mound on an alluvial plain, long known for its extensive surface remains of stone‐built circular and rectangular structures. Following test excavations in 2012, more detailed excavation was undertaken in 2016 within one of the largest rectangular stone structures.

1173. Ipomoea pandurata (L.) G. Mey
Curtis's Botanical Magazine, EarlyView.Summary Ipomoea pandurata is a Morning Glory from North America which develops a large storage root. There is much uncertainty about its discovery before its formal description in the middle of the 18th century. Originally described as a Convolvulus, almost a hundred years passed before its recognition as a species of Ipomoea.

Mating Strategies of Philanthine Digger Wasps
The UW National Parks Service Research Station Annual Reports, 1978 This research is part of continuing study of the ethology of digger wasps of the subfamily Philanthinae (Hymenoptera, Sphecidae). At the present time major effort is being directed toward study of mating strategies in the genus Philanthus. There are five species of this genus in Jackson Hole (Evans, 1970).

Diet breadth shapes gut microbiota in the invasive hornet Vespa velutina
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Dietary and microbial profiles of V. velutina larvae are dominated by Apidae and Firmicutes, respectively. DNA metabarcoding of larval meconium and gut samples reveals a significant positive correlation between prey richness and bacterial diversity in the invasive hornet V. velutina. Multiple significant correlations exist between dietary and microbial

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Bees are integral pollinators commonly found in and supported by urban green spaces; however, their eco‐evolutionary response to urbanisation varies interspecifically. While several studies have explored the population and landscape genetics of bees in response to urbanisation, few have examined solitary or specialist species which may be more ...

Animal Logic: Locke and the Nature of Inference
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Can animals reason? If so, what would their reasoning consist in, and how, if at all, would it differ from its human counterpart? On these questions, John Locke stakes out a position that also merits consideration today. I argue that, for Locke, reasoning is a matter of the subject's construing her mental states as support for a conclusion ...

Antipredatory Strategies of Anurans: An Updated Conceptual Review
Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 9, Page 662-708, September 2026.To unravel the evolutionary dynamics of predator–prey interactions, we propose an updated, three‐tiered classification of anuran antipredatory strategies. By mapping non‐behavioral, individual, and group defenses across five functional phases, this integrative framework introduces the concept of synergetic coupling.

A faunistic study on digger wasps of Iran (Hymenoptera)
Natura Somogyiensis, 2018 Abstract: This paper deals with distribution data of 53 species of Iranian digger wasps from 27 genera and three families, Ampulicidae (single species), Crabronidae (28 species, 16 genera) and Sphecidae (24 species, 9 genera). Eight species are new records for the fauna of Iran: Bembix diversipes F.
