Herbivory increases diversification across insect clades. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Insects contain more than half of all living species, but the causes of their remarkable diversity remain poorly understood. Many authors have suggested that herbivory has accelerated diversification in many insect clades. However, others have questioned

Revealing pancrustacean relationships: Phylogenetic analysis of ribosomal protein genes places Collembola (springtails) in a monophyletic Hexapoda and reinforces the discrepancy between mitochondrial and nuclear DNA markers

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Background In recent years, several new hypotheses on phylogenetic relations among arthropods have been proposed on the basis of DNA sequences. One of the challenged hypotheses is the monophyly of hexapods.

Lethal effects of allyl isothiocyanate on the egg masses of flighted spongy moth complex Lymantria dispar japonica (Lepidoptera: Erebidae)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study showed that AITC substance was lethal effect to Lymantria dispar japonica egg mass, and our results show a significant decline in egg hatching rate with increasing AITC concentrations. Abstract BACKGROUND The flighted spongy moth complex (FSMC) lays egg masses not only on host plants but also various artificial structures, such as, cargo ...

Riparian Vegetation and Arthropod Responses to Dam Removal and Habitat Restoration Along the Kalamazoo River, Michigan, USA

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riparian ecosystems harbor diverse biota and provide numerous services to rivers including mitigating sediment run‐off, regulating temperature, and contributing food‐web subsidies. Dams are a major threat to riparian communities, but dam removal and riparian restoration efforts have the potential to restore these communities and the services ...

Occurrence characteristics of microplastics in Dongting Lake, China

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract Lakes are critical sinks for terrigenous microplastics (MPs), yet understanding their ecological risks remains hindered by data uncertainties and the absence of local background values. In this study, an enhanced pollution load index (PLI) model integrating stochastic mathematical methods and species sensitivity distributions (SSD) was ...

The Metathoracic Pterygoda of the Hexapoda and Their Relation to the Wings [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Naturalist, 1901
ON the anterior margin of the prothorax and mesothorax of the Lepicloptera are two small sclerites known as the patagium and tegula, respectively; while in certain other orders of Hexapocla (Hymenoptera, Neuroptera, and Trichoptera) a small piece has been found at the base of the mesothoracic wing which has been consiclered equivalent to the tegula ...
