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

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.

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.

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
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.

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.

Vertical distribution of Diplopoda populations from deciduous forests [PDF]
The vertical distribution of Diplopoda populations from deciduous forests is analyzed. The observations were made in oak, beech, and alder forests situated on the southern slopes of the Făgăraş Mountains in the middle of the watershed of the Argeş River (

Sexual dimorphism, fresh water dispersal range, and prey items of Marine toads (Rhinella marina) in Lennox Head, Australia [PDF]
The invasive cane or marine toad (Rhinella marina) has spread across much of Australia since its initial introduction in 1935. Naturally found in Central and South America, R.

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