Habitat Persistence Underlies Intraspecific Variation in the Dispersal Strategies of Planthoppers [PDF]
Dispersal is considered a vital life history characteristic for insects exploiting temporary habitats, and life history theorists have often hypothesized an inverse relationship between dispersal capability and habitat persistence.

WING DIMORPHISM IN TUSCAN POPULATIONS OF RHYZOBIUS LITURA (FABRICIUS) (COLEOPTERA COCCINELLIDAE) [PDF]
Wing polymorphism is well known among beetle families such as Carabidae, Staphylinidae, Tenebrionidae and Curculionidae, but it is relatively uncommon among Coccinellidae.

Socio-economic Impacts—Fisheries [PDF]
Fishers and scientists have known for over 100 years that the status of fish stocks can be greatly influenced by prevailing climatic conditions. Based on historical sea surface temperature data, the North Sea has been identified as one of 20 ‘hot spots ...

Gryllacrididae (Orthoptera: Ensifera) in southern Africa [PDF]
Although Gryllacrididae are a largely southern hemisphere insect family, they are relatively poorly represented in southern Africa, with three genera (Ametroides Karny, 1928, Glomeremus Karny, 1937, and Stictogryllacris Karny, 1937) and ten species and ...

Forest edge and carabid beetle diversity (Coleoptera, Carabidae) in a Dinaric beech-fir forest [PDF]
Trčci (Coleoptera, Carabidae) istraživani su na području oštrog i sukcesijskog šumskog ruba, te u unutrašnjosti dinarske bukovo-jelove šume (as. Omphalodo-Fagetum) u blizini naselja Stara Sušica (Gorski kotar). Trčci su skupljani metodom lovnih posuda od

Biochemical basis of specialization for dispersal vs. reproduction in a wing-polymorphic cricket: Morph-specific metabolism of amino acids [PDF]
The biochemical basis of specializations for dispersal vs. reproduction is an understudied aspect of dispersal polymorphism in insects. Using a radiolabelled amino acid, we quantified differences in in vivo amino acid metabolism between morphs of the ...

Habitat specialization, distribution range size and body size drive extinction risk in carabid beetles [PDF]
The worldwide biodiversity crisis is ongoing. To slow down, or even halt future species loss it is important to identify potential drivers of extinction risk. Species traits can help to understand the underlying process of extinction risk.
