Potential geographic displacement of Chagas disease vectors under climate change

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 709-717, December 2025.
As a result of modelling the potential distribution of 55 triatomine species in the Neotropical region, with climate change projected for up to 2050, we found no significant changes. With climate change projected for up to 2080 in the Neotropical region, we see a significant potential for the migration of 55 species of triatomines towards the Amazon ...

Making vertebrate fossil radiocarbon dates more useful for global scientific research

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 8, Page 1309-1335, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Radiocarbon dating of bones is essential for reconstructing timelines of species' occurrences, domestication, extinction, migrations, and interactions with Quaternary environments. Many studies compile these chronologies at continental to global scales by aggregating radiocarbon dates from various sources, often balancing data quantity and ...

A new cave-dwelling species of the genus Geophilus Leach, 1814 (Chilopoda: Geophilomorpha) from the chemoautotrophic-based Movile Cave (Southern Dobrogea, Romania)

The European Zoological Journal
Geophilus zagreus sp. nov., a troglomorphic geophilid endemic to the Movile Cave sulfidic groundwater ecosystem, is described and illustrated. It is distinguished from other European Geophilus species by a high number of coxal pores on the ventral side ...

Lava Tube System Development Defined by Multispectral Imaging and InSAR: The Case of the 2024 Eruption of Fernandina Volcano (Galápagos)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Lava tubes are subsurface conduits within a lava flow that feed its advance. Lava tube detection is important to understand lava flow dynamics and to mitigate geohazards. Here we use InSAR‐derived surface motion data, in combination with shortwave and thermal infrared imagery, to delineate a ∼14 km long lava tube system at Fernandina volcano ...

In memory of Emil G. Racovitza (1868 – 1947) – his ideas reverberate in our scientific research

Travaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile Racovitza, 2018
The ideas of E. G. Racovitza which led to the development of biospelaeology (biospeology, is the term used by Racovitza and adopted here) are reviewed. We emphasize the important research programme named Biospeologica which allowed to implement practical

New insights into the biology of the rare ectoparasitoid rhopalosomatid wasps (Hymenoptera: Rhopalosomatidae) in the Neotropics: parasitoid–host relationships in Brazil and Costa Rica

Austral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 4, November 2025.
Abstract Rhopalosomatidae (Hymenoptera, Vespoidea) are rare ectoparasitoid wasps that parasitize crickets (Grylloidea), with few records documented in the literature, which originate from the Nearctic and Australian regions. Here, we report the first record of Rhopalosomatidae larvae parasitizing crickets of the family Phalangopsidae in the Neotropics.

The Dark Star of Baisun-tau: a history of cave exploration in Southern Uzbekistan, 1990–2013 [PDF]

, 2014
Very little is known about the karst and caves in southern Uzbekistan, where some of the deepest caves in Asia have been discovered. In particular, the limestone plateau of the Baisun-tau mountain range has a tremendous potential for exploration.

Identification, prediction and mitigation of sinkhole hazards in evaporite karst areas [PDF]

, 2008
Sinkholes usually have a higher probability of occurrence and a greater genetic diversity in evaporite terrains than in carbonate karst areas. This is because evaporites have a higher solubility, and commonly a lower mechanical strength.

Hominin and carnivore roles during the formation of the early Middle Pleistocene site of Loreto (Venosa Basin, southern Italy)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 1252-1268, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The site of Loreto (Venosa Basin, Italy) was first discovered in 1929 and subsequently excavated during the latter half of the 20th century. The excavation revealed three archaeo‐palaeontological levels, with the lowermost level (Level A) yielding the largest number of remains.
