Predatory Behavior of the Basilica Spider, Mecynogea Lemniscata (Araneae, Araneidae)

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 99, Issue 2-3, Page 153-168, 1992., 1992
Females of Mecynogea lemniscata (Walckenaer) are generalist predators. Sixteen behavioral acts were described for M. lemniscata preying on house flies, carpenter ants, and Asiatic oak weevils in the field and laboratory. Behavioral sequences varied with prey type, but generally began with plucking and diverged there‐after.

Phylogenomic insights into the relationship and the evolutionary history of planthoppers (Insecta: Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha) 基于基因组的系统发育分析为蜡蝉亚目(Fulgoromorpha)的系统发育关系及进化提供新见解

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 495-518, July 2025.
Using genomic data from 285 species across 19 planthopper families, we conducted the first phylogenomic study targeting global planthoppers and inferred their phylogeny with the highest resolution so far. We proposed taxonomic changes including the establishment of a new family Borysthenidae stat. rev. and a new superfamily Meenoploidea superfam.

Robot‐Aided Measurement of Insect Diversity on Vegetation Using Environmental DNA

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
We developed a novel method combining drone‐based sampling and environmental DNA (eDNA) with Oxford Nanopore sequencing to monitor insect biodiversity on vegetation. Using a DJI Matrice 3 drone, we collected eDNA samples from grassland, shrub and forest habitats in Switzerland, detecting 64 insect taxa and revealing habitat‐specific differences in ...

Comparison of water and terrestrial jumping in natural and robotic insects

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1537, Issue 1, Page 13-31, July 2024.
Jumping of small creatures demands high power to surpass size‐related speed limits. They employ various mechanisms to amplify power release. Furthermore, semi‐aquatic jumpers use specialized techniques to maximize the momentum transfer from the water.
