Inclusion of rare taxa from Blattidae and Anaplectidae improves phylogenetic resolution in the cockroach superfamily Blattoidea

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 23-39, January 2023., 2023
1. Phylogeny reconstruction based on mitochondrial genomes provided a number of insights into the evolutionary history of Blattoidea. 2. A new subfamily and two synonyms were proposed in Blattidae: Hebardininae subfam. nov., Archiblattinae Kirby syn. nov. and Shelfordella Adelung syn. nov. 3.

Hay meadows' overriding effect shapes ground beetle functional diversity in mountainous landscapes

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022
Abstract Mountain regions are hotspots of biodiversity, and are particularly sensitive to human activities and global changes. Characterizing biodiversity using trait‐based approaches may improve the understanding of the evolutionary and mechanistic basis of ecological patterns in species distribution.

Carabid beetles of tropical dry forests display traits that cope with a harsh environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The tropical dry forest (TDF) ecosystem is characterised by strong seasonality exasperated periodically by the El Nino/southern oscillation (ENSO). The environment produced by this event could constrain the survival of small organisms, such as insects ...
