Monitoring population trends are essential for the conservation of threatened species, and establishing best‐practice methods improves the efficiency, accuracy and long‐term value of data collected. For the nationally endangered Prodontria lewisii (Cromwell chafer beetle), monitoring has typically included soil core sampling for larvae, and pitfall ...

Taxonomic Species and Conservation: A Coleopterists’ View
A taxonomic species, the formal name applied to a segment of an evolving lineage, is a scientific representation named by a taxonomist. There is a dearth of taxonomists, which continues to decline, leading to the oft‐mentioned bottleneck in the formal naming of undescribed species and their revision.

ABSTRACT The poor soft tissue integration around titanium implants creates a microgap that serves as a pathway for pathogen invasion, resulting in infection, inflammation, and the progression of peri‐implantitis. As the implant’s transmucosal component, the abutment determines the degree of peri‐implant soft tissue attachment.

ABSTRACT Invasive species such as grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idella ) pose substantial ecological threats to North American freshwater ecosystems. Understanding their early life stage behavior is critical for management efforts. From spawning to hatching, invasive carp eggs must remain suspended in the water column while drifting downstream for the ...

Ecological Impacts of Chemical Fumigants on Nematode Community Composition
Chemical fumigants impact nematode diversity, community composition and nematode‐based indices. ABSTRACT Soil fumigation is widely used to control targeted plant‐parasitic nematodes in agricultural systems, but how they affect nematode communities and nematode‐based indices (NBIs) has remained underexplored.

Scalable Flow Reactors for Stable Biofilm Formation and Continuous Whole‐Cell Catalysis
Flow‐induced deposition enables the controlled formation of stable and long‐lived E. coli biofilms in modular, scalable microfluidic reactors. Hydrodynamic design principles, mechanistic insight into biofilm architecture and long‐term whole‐cell biocatalysis together establish a versatile platform for continuous microbial processing and the engineering
