KBAscope: key biodiversity area identification in R

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2024, Issue 9, September 2024.
Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) represent the largest global network of sites critical to the persistence of biodiversity, which have been identified against standardised quantitative criteria. Sites that hold very high biodiversity value or potential are given specific attention on site‐based conservation targets of the Kunming‐Montreal Global ...

Incongruent phylogenetic hypotheses and character conflicts in morphology : the root and early branches of the hexapodan tree [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Before the turn of the millenium the investigation of phylogenetic relationships was revolutionized by two major inputs, the use of molecular sequence data for phylogenetic reconstruction, paralleled by the sophistication of computer aided reconstruction

Comparison of water and terrestrial jumping in natural and robotic insects

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1537, Issue 1, Page 13-31, July 2024.
Jumping of small creatures demands high power to surpass size‐related speed limits. They employ various mechanisms to amplify power release. Furthermore, semi‐aquatic jumpers use specialized techniques to maximize the momentum transfer from the water.

Neuromodulation and the toolkit for behavioural evolution: can ecdysis shed light on an old problem?

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 291, Issue 6, Page 1049-1079, March 2024.
Altered neuromodulatory signalling via GPCRs frequently underlies evolutionary changes in behaviour. GPCRs and their ligands might thus represent a ‘toolkit’ akin to the Evo‐Devo toolkit responsible for animal development. Just as evolutionary changes in the Evo‐Devo toolkit can alter gene regulatory network function and morphology, changes in ...
