Contribution to Collembola (Hexapoda, Entognatha) fauna from Golestan province, Iran [PDF]
Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics, 2016 Improved studies on Collembola fauna of Iran have been started only recently and springtails species from many regions of the country are still unknown. This study presents the results of a faunistic survey of springtails from Golestan province, Northern

Comparative gut content analysis of invasive mosquitofish from Italy and Spain. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 A comparison between 9 invasive populations of eastern mosquitofish across Italy and Spain found strong size‐specific differences in feeding patterns that are probably linked to sexual dimorphism (males are smaller than females). Moreover, mosquitofish fed on a wide array of prey, yet no single diet item/category was shared among all populations.

Important Crop Pollinators Respond Less Negatively to Anthropogenic Land Use Than Other Animals. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWith a high proportion of crops requiring animal‐mediated pollination to some extent, understanding how anthropogenic landscapes impact communities and pollination provision is critical for ensuring food security. We find that the species most important for crop pollination are responding less negatively (and sometimes positively) to human disturbance ...

Trust your guts? The effect of gut section on diet composition and impact of Mus musculus on islands using metabarcoding. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 In this article, we assessed the differences in diet estimates and potential ecological and economic impact measurements according to the section of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach, small and large intestine) analysed. We aimed to test which section(s) provided a better diet representation and putative impact of a common inland invader.

Quantification of invertebrates on fungal fruit bodies by the use of time‐lapse cameras
Ecological Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 5, Page 544-556, October 2023., 2023 Here we use time‐lapse cameras to monitor invertebrates on the fruit bodies of a common wood‐decay fungus, Fomitopsis pinicola. The most common visitors were beetles, spiders, true flies, slugs and centipedes. The invertebrates were more active during night and, for the beetles, early in the season, probably related to a period of high spore production

Aliens in caves: the global dimension of biological invasions in subterranean ecosystems
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 849-867, June 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Alien species are a significant threat to natural ecosystems and human economies. Despite global efforts to address this challenge, the documented number of alien species is rapidly increasing worldwide. However, the magnitude of the impact of alien species may vary significantly across habitats.

Freshwater Biology, Volume 67, Issue 8, Page 1411-1427, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Tropical freshwater invertebrate species are becoming extinct without being described, and effective conservation is hampered by a lack of taxonomic and distribution data. DNA metabarcoding is a promising tool for rapid biodiversity assessments that has never been applied to tropical freshwater invertebrates across large spatial and taxonomic ...
