The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Scolopendra mutilans L. Koch, 1878 (Scolopendromorpha, Scolopendridae), with a comparative analysis of other centipede genomes [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2020 Scolopendra mutilans L. Koch, 1878 is an important Chinese animal with thousands of years of medicinal history. However, the genomic information of this species is limited, which hinders its further application.

Legged Locomotion in Lattices: Centipede Traversal of Obstacle-Rich Environments. [PDF]
Ann N Y Acad SciWe investigated how centipedes adapted their limb stepping and body bending patterns in a dense array of rigid obstacles (vertical posts). Centipedes maintained a rapid speed in the obstacle array by adapting their gaits in several ways, including adducing their limbs along their bodies to mitigate collisions, twisting their bodies into more favorable ...

Novel mitochondrial gene rearrangements pattern in the millipede Polydesmus sp. GZCS-2019 and phylogenetic analysis of the Myriapoda. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 We determined the complete mitochondrial genome of Polydesmus sp. GZCS‐2019 and all genes encoded on + strand. Several genes rearrangements were detected and we propose a new rearrangement model: “TD (N\R) L + C” based on the genome‐scale duplication + (non‐random/random) loss + recombination. We combine phylogenetic analysis, divergence time, and gene

Niche Differentiation of Three Terrestrial Isopod Species Based on DNA Metabarcoding. [PDF]
Ecol EvolSpecies coexistence is a hot topic in ecology, with niche differentiation playing a key role in reducing interspecific competition. This study investigates the dietary habits and niche differentiation of three terrestrial isopod species (Armadillidium vulgare, Sphaeroma raffaelei, and Trachelipus semiproiectus) using DNA metabarcoding technology.

Fungal Energy Channelling Sustains Soil Animal Communities Across Forest Types and Regions. [PDF]
Ecol LettWe developed a novel framework combining stable isotope analysis of essential amino acids and energy fluxes to quantify basal resource contributions and trophic positions of meso‐ and macrofauna detritivores (Collembola, Oribatida, Diplopoda, Isopoda, Lumbricidae) and predators (Mesostigmata, Chilopoda) in 48 forest sites of different management ...
