Elephant Fences Result in Limited Impacts on Movement of Non‐Target Species

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Mega‐herbivore or elephant fences aim to prevent target animals (here: African savanna elephant Loxodonta africana, giraffe Giraffa giraffa) from crossing while allowing others, often with the intention to protect an area against elephants—for conservation, economic or research purposes.

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.

Revision of the Anastrepha benjamini species group and the A. pallidipennis complex (Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The shape of the facial carina in Altastreplia is discussed. Although taxonomically useful, the protrudent form probably occurs by convergence in different species groups. Two species groups in which the carina is usually produced are revised.

DNA metabarcoding provides new insight into the diet of invasive chital deer (Axis axis) in a tropical savanna landscape

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract The introduction of non‐native species into new environments can cause significant ecological harm and is considered a major conservation threat. As populations of invasive species continue to establish and increase across the globe, novel methods can provide new insights into their biology and potentially aid in management.
