Island time and the interplay between ecology and evolution in species diversification. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Research on the dynamics of biodiversity has progressed tremendously over recent years, although in two separate directions - ecological, to determine change over space at a given time, and evolutionary, to understand change over time.

Ground spider communities in experimentally disturbed Mediterranean woodland habitats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The protected Mediterranean woodland habitats in Israel are undergoing tree encroachment, resulting in loss of open patches with herbaceous vegetation. We suggested that this process results in a ground spider community dominated by shade-loving species.

Jumping Locomotion Strategies: From Animals to Bioinspired Robots

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Jumping is a locomotion strategy widely evolved in both invertebrates and vertebrates. In addition to terrestrial animals, several aquatic animals are also able to jump in their specific environments. In this paper, the state of the art of jumping robots

No evidence for the perception of the peripheral drift illusion in jumping spiders

open access: yesHeliyon
In the peripheral drift illusion, a static circular sawtooth pattern is perceived as if it were rotating. It is believed that this effect is a byproduct of how the neural substrate responsible for motion perception is organized.
