Size dimorphism and directional selection in forest millipedes [PDF]
Arthropods, 2019 Sexual Size Dimorphism (SSD) in the diplopod genus Centrobolus has a positive correlation with body size. Length, width and rings are the main components of interspecific variation in diplopod species.

European Journal of Entomology, 2009 First-stadium juveniles of Polydesmus angustus born each month from May to September were reared throughout their life cycle under controlled seasonal conditions. At maturity, the reproductive patterns of 62 females were studied individually.

Insect Science, EarlyView.Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

The Diplopoda from the middle course of Argeş river
Travaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza23 species of Diplopoda are recorded from the poorly investigated region of the middle basin of the Argeş River, several species being recorded for the first time in this region while for other species like Rumaniulus mammosus it expands the known ...

Zoogeographic analysis of Chilopoda and Diplop-oda of the fauna of the Central Ciscaucasia
Наука. Инновации. Технологии, 2022 There is a zoogeographical analysis of 55 species of centipedes and millipedes of the Central Ciscaucasia. It was revealed that in the formation of the fauna of this region, the most important were species that refer to the Boreal, Mediterranean and ...

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Using citizen‐science records, we analysed ecogeographic patterns of colour polymorphism in two closely related centipede species across Japan. While two colour morphs in Scolopendra mutilans are broadly sympatric, they are geographically restricted in S. japonica despite overlapping climatic niches and biotic interactions.

ParaHox Genes Revisited: From Gut Patterning to Integrated Axial and Neural Organization in Rotifera
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 4, Page 357-369, June 2026.In rotifers, ParaHox genes show a dispersed genomic organization, with Xlox absent across gnathiferans. Exclusive neuronal expression of Gsx and Cdx reveals that ancestral ParaHox genes coordinated neural and epithelial development beyond gut patterning, suggesting an integrated role in early bilaterian body plan organization.
