Why the Long “Horns”? Fine‐Scale Morphology Suggests Tactile Demands Contributed to the Exaggeration of Male Longhorned Beetle Antennae (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
Exceptionally elongated antennae are common in male longhorned beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), but their function and evolution are poorly understood. Through scanning electron microscopy and antennal morphometrics of multiple Anoplistes species (Cerambycidae), our study revealed that elongate antennae are more likely adaptive for close‐range ...

Assessing Fish Community Structure and Diversity Across Environmental Gradients in a Tropical Bay

open access: yesMarine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding the relationship between species distribution and the environment across spatial gradients is crucial for biodiversity evaluation. We surveyed fish populations in a tropical bay, covering a spatial gradient from the outer zone with favorable marine conditions to the inner zone affected by human activities.
