The cryptonephridial/rectal complex: an evolutionary adaptation for water and ion conservation. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACT Arthropods have integrated digestive and renal systems, which function to acquire and maintain homeostatically the substances they require for survival. The cryptonephridial complex (CNC) is an evolutionary novelty in which the renal organs and gut have been dramatically reorganised. Parts of the renal or Malpighian tubules (MpTs) form a close

Ecography, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 318-327, February 2020., 2020 Spatial scaling theory (SST) relates the physical structure of the environment to species coexistence and community assembly. Although SST is a recognized theory in ecology, few studies have evaluated its predictions, producing contradictory results and frequently failing to meet its assumptions.
