Host assemblage and environment shape β‐diversity of freshwater parasites across diverse taxa at a continental scale

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 38-49, January 2020., 2020
Abstract Aim Positive relationships in compositional similarity between consumer and resource assemblages are widely known in free‐living taxa, but less is known about parasites and their hosts. We investigated whether congruent patterns of assemblage similarity across diverse taxa of hosts and parasites exist at a continental scale and quantified the ...

Drought decreases incorporation of recent plant photosynthate into soil food webs regardless of their trophic complexity

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 25, Issue 10, Page 3549-3561, October 2019., 2019
How soil food web complexity modulates the response to drought of soil functions related to C cycling and the capture and transfer below‐ground of recent photosynthate C by plants? We provide an exciting 13C pulse‐labelling experiment to answer that question.

Redescription of Female Laelaps nuttalli Hirst, 1915 (Acari: Dermanyssoidea: Laelapidae) with Emphasis on Its Gnathosoma, Sense Organs and Pulvilli

open access: yesInternational Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The present scanning electron microscopic (SEM) study includes the redescription of female Laelaps nuttalli with emphasis on its gnathosoma and pulvilli which were rarely described in superfamily Dermanyssoidea. Chaetotaxy of dorsal shield revealed 40 pairs of setae, 22 on prosoma and 18 on opisthosoma.

Predicting the population dynamics of the house dust mite 'Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus' (Acari: pyroglyphidae) in response to a constant hygrothermal environment using a model of the mite life cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A generalised model of the life cycle of a house dust mite, which can be tailored to any particular species of domestic mite, is presented. The model takes into account the effects of hygrothermal conditions on each life cycle phase.

Specialized Predation on Oribatid Mites by Two Species of the Ant Genus Myrmecina (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 101, Issue 3-4, Page 159-173, 1994., 1994
Specialized predation on oribatid mites was confirmed in two Japanese species of the myrmicine genus Myrmecina, the first instance in the Formicidae. Using the mouthparts and legs, a worker skillfully tears a hole in the oribatid body and gives the partly dismembered prey to a larva.
