Diversity of Resilin Incidence in the Insect Leg

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 6, June 2026.
Resilin incidences in the insect cuticle are commonly detected by fluorescence microscopy using the property of Resilin protein matrices to emit blue light after excitation with UV light. This indirect method produces significant background signal.

When invasions go unnoticed: Public perception of the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii in Europe

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1957-1973, June 2026.
Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey

Cellular and molecular representations: Following the lesson of David Goodsell

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract David Goodsell's images have helped, over the last 30 years, thousands of students all over the world to imagine the cellular world by representing molecules, proteins, complexes, viruses, bacteria, and cellular processes. His contributions to the development of Molecular Graphics (MG) have been invaluable, and his retirement is the last (for ...

Rickettsiales in South America: A Systematic Review of Their Molecular Detection and Distribution in Arthropods and Vertebrates

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Bacteria of the order Rickettsiales comprise a diverse group of obligate intracellular microorganisms that are globally distributed and highly prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions. In South America, these bacteria have been associated with arthropod vectors, such as ticks, fleas, mites, lice, and certain dipterans, as well as with a ...

Biological Pesticides as Viable Alternative to Synthetic Pesticides for Sustainable Agriculture and Nutrition: A Systematic Review

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The overuse of synthetic pesticides in agriculture has raised significant environmental and health concerns. Biopesticides have emerged as viable, environmentally compatible alternatives. However, recent comprehensive reviews integrating all biopesticide categories and emphasizing their contribution to synthetic‐pesticide‐free and health‐safe ...

Non‐Invaginated Wing Primordia in Holometabolous Insects: First Report From Mecoptera

Evolution &Development, Volume 28, Issue 2, June 2026.
We investigated wing primordium development in the scorpionfly Mavropanorpa japonica and present the first detailed histological description of a late‐forming, non‐invaginated wing primordium lacking a morphologically distinct peripodial epithelium in Mecoptera.

Beyond Temperature: Relative Humidity Systematically Shifts Juvenile Thermal Performance and Projected Population Growth in a Malaria Vector

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
Understanding how ectotherms respond to environmental change requires accounting for multiple interacting climatic factors; yet relative humidity is rarely integrated with temperature in trait‐based performance frameworks. Using laboratory experiments and an analytic population growth model, we show that humidity systematically modifies juvenile life ...

Predictions From Evolutionary Theory for Urban Environments

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Urbanization drives rapid and extreme environmental change, profoundly shaping the ecology and evolution of populations. In this Perspective, we call for the integration and development of evolutionary theory and empirical research through collaboration between theoretical and experimental biologists to provide new insights into urban ...

Past Pollution Can Shape Future Climatic Vulnerability: Fungicide Exposure Alters Detritivore Performance During Heatwaves and Recovery

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Natural populations are increasingly exposed to multiple stressors, such as chemical pollution and climate‐change‐driven heatwaves. While it has become clear that we need to account for stressor interactions, it is less well understood how sequential exposure to different stressors influences organismal responses as well as their potential for

Contrasting Refugial Dynamics in Central Apennine Sky‐Islands: A Comparative Phylogeography of Two Endemic Beetles

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Quaternary climatic oscillations have profoundly shaped the genetic structure and geographic distributions of alpine biotas. Understanding how cold‐adapted taxa responded to past climatic shifts is essential for unravelling the processes shaping mountain biodiversity, yet cold‐adapted taxa may have followed divergent refugial histories. We
