Mitigating light pollution impacts on arthropods based on light‐emitting diode properties

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Light pollution from artificial light at night (ALAN) is a significant environmental problem with far‐reaching consequences for ecological systems. Recent innovations in light‐emitting diode (LED) technology may offer sustainable outdoor lighting solutions, but scientific evidence is lacking. We investigated the effects of various LED lighting

Complete mitochondrial genome of Sellanucheza jaegeri Golovatch, 2013 by next generation sequencing (Polydesmida: Paradoxosomatidae) and phylogenetic analysis in Diplopoda

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
The mitogenome of Sellanucheza jaegeri was 15,623 bp long, revealed the same gene order to that of typical Polydesmida. Both the tRNASer(AGN) and tRNASer(UCN) lacked the DHU arms. No tandem repeat was found in two control regions.

Combined heat and drought affect the abundance, composition and diversity of subalpine surface‐active soil arthropod communities

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 98-112, February 2026.
We applied factorial soil warming and moisture reduction treatments directly in the field in the Australian subalpine to assess changes to surface‐active soil arthropod abundance, diversity and community composition. After identifying nearly 50,000 specimens to order, we found a stronger effect of sampling month than treatment.

Trachelipus razzauti (Arcangeli, 1913) (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea) and Typhloiulus serborum Ćurčić & Makarov, 2005 (Myriapoda: Diplopoda) – new species for the Romanian fauna

open access: yesTravaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza
A new species of Oniscidea, Trachelipus razzauti, and a new species of Diplopoda, Typhloiulus serborum, are recorded first time for the Romanian fauna. Both species have been “discovered” in the collection of the “Emil Racoviţă” Institute of Speleology.

Cave Diplopoda of southern China with reference to millipede diversity in Southeast Asia

open access: yesZooKeys, 2015
The diversity of Diplopoda in caves of southern China is remarkably high, often 5–6 species per cave, consisting mostly of local endemics and presumed troglobionts.

Contexts of Anointing Behavior in a Group of Blond Capuchin Monkeys (Sapajus flavius) Inhabiting an Atlantic Forest Fragment

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 1, January 2026.
Wild blond capuchin anoints with millipede species that secrete a chemical capable of repelling ectoparasites, suggesting a self‐medicative function. Social and solitary anointing bouts occurred at similar frequencies, but with greater engagement by adult males, indicating that anointing is a multifunctional behavior.

Ophyiulus in Victoria: results of millipede surveys from south-eastern Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The composition and ecology of the millipede fauna of Victoria remain poorly understood. We collected millipedes as part of a series of ecological arthropod surveys across south-eastern Australia, focusing mainly on Victoria.
