Systematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 296-308, April 2025.Phylogenetic analyses of anchored hybrid data strongly supported the leafhopper subfamilies Megophthalminae and Ulopinae as monophyletic clades closely related to treehoppers, but some tribes within these two groups are nonmonophyletic. The origin of Megophthalminae and Ulopinae was estimated at ~140 million years ago, and the divergence within each ...

Life history and mating systems select for male biased parasitism mediated through natural selection and ecological feedbacks [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 Males are often the "sicker" sex with male biased parasitism found in a taxonomically diverse range of species. There is considerable interest in the processes that could underlie the evolution of sex-biased parasitism. Mating system differences along with differences in lifespan may play a key role.

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, March 2025.ABSTRACT The African large predator guild is one of the last intact large predator guilds globally, and interactions between its members influence ecosystem functioning. We conducted camera‐trapping in the Maasai Mara Ecosystem (MME) to estimate leopard (Panthera pardus) population density and investigate whether lion (Panthera leo) and hyaena (Crocuta

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 415-433, February 2025.Abstract The rewilding of landscapes through the promotion of natural ecological processes is a contemporary approach to nature restoration and conservation. In Nepal and elsewhere globally, forest is also regenerating naturally on abandoned agricultural land, effectively rewilding the landscape by default.

Partition test and sexual motivation in male mice [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 Theoretical analysis of own and literature investigations of sexual motivation with the use of the partition test [Kudryavtseva, 1987, 1994] in male mice was carried out. It has been shown that appearance of a receptive female in the neighboring compartment of common cage separated by perforated transparent partition produces the enhancement of ...
