FIRST REPORT OF NECTAR ROBBING BY SWORD-BILLED HUMMINGBIRDS ENSIFERA ENSIFERA
Ornitología Neotropical, 2023 A growing number of hummingbird species are known to practice nectar robbing. Hummingbirds that rob nectar tend to have short bills and to rob flowers with long, tubular corollas that prevent the birds from accessing nectar through its openings.

Anotated Checklist of Chinese Ensifera: The Gryllacrididae
Zootaxa, 2021 This paper lists all known Chinese Raspy Crickets (Gryllacrididae) following the scheme proposed by Cadena-Castañeda. A total of 23 genera, 104 species, 3 new combinations, 4 new synonyms, and 1 new replacement name are recorded. Based on these known species, keys to genera (or subgenera) and species with the diagnosis of each genus are also given ...

The Mechanosensory Subgenual Organ Complex in the Stick Insect Bacillus rossius (Phasmatodea): Neuroanatomy and Functional Morphology. [PDF]
J Comp NeurolThe subgenual organ complex in orthopteroid insects consists of few mechanosensory organs. In the stick insect Bacillus rossius, the subgenual organ and distal organ include ∼70 sensilla, and both organs are located in the hemolymph channel with several connections to the leg cuticle.

Molecular evidence for high frequency of multiple paternity in a freshwater shrimp species Caridina ensifera. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Molecular genetic analyses of parentage provide insights into mating systems. Although there are 22,000 members in Malacostraca, not much has been known about mating systems in Malacostraca.

Mating behaviour and vibratory signalling in non-hearing cave crickets reflect primitive communication of Ensifera. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 In Ensifera, the lack of well-supported phylogeny and the focus on acoustic communication of the terminal taxa hinders understanding of the evolutionary history of their signalling behaviour and the related sensory structures.

Testing macroevolutionary predictions of the Grant-Stebbins model in the origin of Aeschynanthus acuminatus. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary The Grant‐Stebbins model predicts that a plant species encountering different pollinators across its range may undergo local adaptation and, subsequently, ecological speciation. We tested whether this could explain the origin of Aeschynanthus acuminatus (Gesneriaceae), a species phylogenetically derived from sunbird specialist ancestors.

The first mitochondrial genome for the superfamily Hagloidea and implications for its systematic status in Ensifera. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Hagloidea Handlirsch, 1906 was an ancient group of Ensifera, that was much more diverse in the past extending at least into the Triassic, apparently diminishing in diversity through the Cretaceous, and now only represented by a few extant species.
