Abstract Systematic knowledge of the Mexican Crassulaceae is slowly progressing as data from new DNA regions and species sampling efforts increase. We compiled and generated new rbcL, matK, rps16, ITS/ITS2, and ETS DNA sequences and performed an updated phylogenetic reconstruction for a group of 131 Mexican Crassulaceae terminals from 11 of the 13 ...

Abstract Over 870 species of scale insects, also called coccoids (infraorder Coccomorpha), have been recorded from Australia. Here, we systematically review literature, databases and collections to provide a revised assessment of non‐native species to Australia, for which we confirm those species that are introduced and extant in Australia (including ...

Hummingbirds play an important role as pollinators and are one of the primary examples of animal–plant coevolution. However, factors such as land‐use change, urbanization, exotic species introductions and the disappearance of native plants can negatively affect the persistence of hummingbird populations.

Bioinspired Design of Isotropic Lattices with Tunable and Controllable Anisotropy
This study introduces nested isotropic lattices, integrating architectural elements like nesting orders and orientations inspired by bioarchitectures. The design enables tunable anisotropy across nine mono‐nest and twenty multi‐nest lattices with 252 parametric variations, demonstrating transitions from shear‐ to tensile‐compression‐dominant behaviors ...

Droplet dynamics on slippery surfaces: small droplet, big impact
The dynamic interaction of droplets with slippery surfaces is essential to various industrial applications, such as anti‐icing, water‐repellency or water‐harvesting, anti‐bacterial, and phase change heat transfer. With recent progress in materials, manufacturing as well as learning from nature, the physics of droplet dynamics has been greatly enriched ...

Links between the ornamental sector and alien plants in Southern Africa
Short Abstract Given the historical role of the ornamental industry in plant invasions in Southern Africa, we assess how the ornamental sector and practices there relate to alien plants. The sector's operation and gardening practices show different expressions of the typical cultural hybridity of postcolonial states, where alien plants and foreign ...
