Sperm Transfer Under Behavioral and Morphological Constraints in the Orb‐Web Spider Genus Argiope
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The polygamous mating system of the orb‐web spider genus Argiope provides a model to study the evolution of sperm transfer under morphological and behavioral constraints. This helps us to understand how male and female behavioral and morphological reproductive traits influence sperm transfer.

WIMANET: The Power of a Network in Wildlife Malaria Research
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The Wildlife Malaria Network (WIMANET) is an EU‐COST funded global network of researchers and stakeholders interested in wildlife malaria and related haemosporidian parasites. In this paper, we review WIMANET's activities to date. We hope this encourages new members to join the network and motivates both new and existing members to participate in its ...

Resting behaviour as a target for innovative mosquito control strategies
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract This work reviews and discusses how a deeper knowledge of mosquito time‐allocation, particularly resting periods, can enhance the effectiveness and deployment of classical vector control tools. As more high‐resolution data are gathered by novel tracking devices, follow‐up questions investigating mosquito behaviour are likely to arise ...

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Disruptive coloration is one of the camouflaging strategies that use conspicuous coloration patterns to destroy the visual integrity of an object and interfere with the observer's visual perception. Such conspicuous coloration often divides the entire shape of the object into multiple areas, increasing the disruption effect. Here, we introduce

Same data, different results? Machine learning approaches in bioacoustics
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Automated acoustic analysis is increasingly used in behavioural ecology, and determining caller identity is a key element for many investigations. However, variability in feature extraction and classification methods limits the comparability of results across species and studies, constraining conclusions we can draw about the ecology and ...

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Camera traps, combined with AI, have emerged to achieve automated, scalable biodiversity monitoring. However, passive infrared (PIR) sensors that typically trigger camera traps are poorly suited for detecting small, fast‐moving ectotherms such as insects. Insects comprise over half of all animal species and are key components of ecosystems and
