The study of Neotropical Apicotermitinae remains challenging due to the large number of undescribed taxa (Linnean shortfall) as well as the scarcity of distributional data (Wallacean shortfall). Despite recent efforts to reduce the first one, the second remains an even more significant challenge.

Galaxy quenching in various environments
Already early studies of the morphology-density relation of galaxies showed that early-type galaxies lie in the centres of rich clusters, and in small groups in filaments between clusters, where they are located closer to filament axis than late-type galaxies. This means that galaxies are indeed pre-processed in groups. In our present study we searched

Constraining the Quenching Mechanisms in Galaxies
A number of theoretical mechanisms have been invoked to explain the transformation of star forming galaxies into quenched galaxies, such as the removal of gas by active galactic nuclei- (AGN) and star formation-driven galactic outflows, and the heating of the galaxy halo and subsequent halting of gas accretion caused by virial shocks and preventative ...

The Bryde's whale is one of the least understood baleen whale species globally, limiting accuracy of regional and global conservation assessment. This study shows the occurrence of unique genetic lineages and evolutionary histories among Bryde's whale populations.

How the environment influences the most massive galaxies is still unclear. To explore the effects of the environment on morphology and star formation in the most massive galaxies at high redshift, we select galaxies with stellar mass $\mathrm{log}({M}_ ...

Archives of impact: The politics of craters on Earth
This paper examines Earth’s 195 confirmed impact craters as archives, exploring their cataloguing and presentation as heritage sites. It argues Western scientific framings using military language and emphasising catastrophe overlook settler colonialism’s violent histories and marginalise indigenous earth‐sky cosmologies.

We study how star formation (SF) is quenched in low-redshift disk galaxies with integral-field spectroscopy. We select 131 face-on spiral galaxies with stellar mass greater than $\rm 3\times10^{10}M_\odot$, and with spatially resolved spectrum from MaNGA

In Central Africa, traditional hunting is central to the way of life of local communities. However, increasing demand for wild meat has raised concerns about the sustainability of this practice. With a year‐long analysis of hunting strategies and their impact at the outskirts of Salonga National Park, Democratic Republic of the Congo, we showed a ...

We present an analysis of the quenching of star formation in massive galaxies ( M _* > 10 ^9.5 M _⊙ ) within the first 0.5–3 Gyr of the Universe’s history utilizing JWST-CEERS data.

The vast majority of dwarf satellites orbiting the Milky Way and M31 are quenched, while comparable galaxies in the field are gas-rich and star-forming.
