Local Search and the Evolution of World Models
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Responses of Fruit Flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) to Protein Bait Applied at Different Densities
Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The effectiveness of odour‐based lures for insects is related to their active space, the air volume around an odour source in which an insect will detect and move towards it. This principle applies to protein baits laced with toxicants that are used as either sprays or stations to suppress pest fruit fly populations.

Nested Selves: Self‐Organization and Shared Markov Blankets in Prenatal Development in Humans
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract The immune system is a central component of organismic function in humans. This paper addresses self‐organization of biological systems in relation to—and nested within—other biological systems in pregnancy. Pregnancy constitutes a fundamental state for human embodiment and a key step in the evolution and conservation of our species. While not

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding the chemical and behavioural ecology of the Neotropical brown stink bug, Euschistus heros (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), is essential for developing effective integrated pest management (IPM) strategies in South American soybean production. This study investigated the courtship behaviour and diel periodicity of sex pheromone emission.

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Sea trout Salmo trutta m. trutta L. has high socioeconomic and ecological importance in the Atlantic region; therefore, stocking hatchery‐reared fish is widely practiced for stock enhancement and recovery of wild populations. In this study, fecundity of wild and stocked hatchery‐reared sea trout sampled from the Łeba River (southern Baltic Sea
