Mitigating light pollution impacts on arthropods based on light‐emitting diode properties
Abstract Light pollution from artificial light at night (ALAN) is a significant environmental problem with far‐reaching consequences for ecological systems. Recent innovations in light‐emitting diode (LED) technology may offer sustainable outdoor lighting solutions, but scientific evidence is lacking. We investigated the effects of various LED lighting

We investigated how temperature and relative humidity influence the parasitic fungus Hesperomyces harmoniae on the invasive ladybird Harmonia axyridis under controlled laboratory conditions. Abiotic factors significantly affect parasitism: High relative humidity increased parasite prevalence, development rate, and load, while both low and high ...

Biodiversity informatics: the challenge of linking data and the role of shared identifiers [PDF]
A major challenge facing biodiversity informatics is integrating data stored in widely distributed databases. Initial efforts have relied on taxonomic names as the shared identifier linking records in different databases.

We applied factorial soil warming and moisture reduction treatments directly in the field in the Australian subalpine to assess changes to surface‐active soil arthropod abundance, diversity and community composition. After identifying nearly 50,000 specimens to order, we found a stronger effect of sampling month than treatment.

The Association between Virus Prevalence and Intercolonial Aggression Levels in the Yellow Crazy Ant, Anoplolepis Gracilipes (Jerdon). [PDF]
The recent discovery of multiple viruses in ants, along with the widespread infection of their hosts across geographic ranges, provides an excellent opportunity to test whether viral prevalence in the field is associated with the complexity of social ...
