First North American record of the Palaearctic rhinophorid Stevenia deceptoria (Loew) (Diptera: Rhinophoridae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Rhinophoridae (Diptera) have a cosmopolitan distribution and a known fauna of about 150 species (Cerretti & Pape 2007). So far as known, all species are parasitoids of terrestrial woodlice (sow bugs) of the order Isopoda (Oniscoidea) (Pape 2010 ...

The macrozoobenthic community of the Santa Gilla lagoon (southern Sardinia, Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
1 - Macrozoobenthos is one of the most significant communities of hydrobionts for assessing the ecological state of a water body. In spite of its importance, only few data concerning the macrobenthic community of Santa Gilla lagoon are available; 2 ...

Some Relative Humidity Reactions of the Wood-Louse, Cylisticus Convexus (Isopoda: Porcellionidae) in an Olfactometer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Generally, wood-lice are confined to habitats where the saturation deficit is low and damp surfaces are available. Cylisticus convexus (De Geer) is one of many species that are found in a relatively wet habitat (Edney, 1954).

Longitudinal patterns in an Arkansas River Valley stream: an Application of the River Continuum Concept [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The River Continuum Concept (RCC) provides the framework for studying how lotic ecosystems vary from headwater streams to large rivers. The RCC was developed in streams in eastern deciduous forests of North America, but watershed characteristics and land

Edges as ecological filters: Asymmetrical orientation‐specific arthropod activity across forest boundaries

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Data on the terrestrial Isopoda fauna of the Alsó-hegy, Aggtelek National Park, Hungary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Field surveys in dolines of Alsó-hegy, Aggtelek Karst (Hungary) yielded 10 terrestrial isopod species. Despite of the relatively low species richness, we would like to emphasize the high naturalness of the area indicated by the presence of endemic and

Volumetric Comparison of Overall Brain and Neuropil Size Between Social and Non‐social Spiders: Exploring the Social Brain Hypothesis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Brain size may be influenced by the cognitive demands of sociality (social brain hypothesis). We used microCT to compare CNS and brain volumes in social versus solitary huntsman and crab spiders. Social huntsman spiders had larger arcuate and mushroom bodies, while social crab spiders had larger visual neuropils.
