The Afrotropical Miomantis caffra Saussure 1871 and M. paykullii Stal 1871: first records of alien mantid species in Portugal and Europe, with an updated checklist of Mantodea in Portugal (Insecta: Mantodea)

Biodiversity Data Journal, 2014
The recent growing interest on the Mantodea fauna of southern Europe and Portugal in particular, has enabled the discovery of two geographically separated populations of hitherto unknown species in Europe.

Covalent Attachment of Quaternary Ammonium Group to Geopolymer Surface With Silane Coupling Agent to Enable Simultaneous Adsorption of Cations and Anions

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 17, 8 September 2026.
Modification of geopolymer surface with a silane coupling agent containing quaternary ammonium group enables the development of dual‐functioning ion exchanger for both cations and anions. In the present study, the performance of this material was demonstrated for the uptake of ammonium and nitrate from water.

Bioinspired Sinusoidal Corrugation for High‐Performance Motion Sensing in Wearable Human‐Machine Interfaces

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 9, September 2026.
Bioinspired sinewave corrugation is introduced as a structural strategy for flexible strain sensing. By redistributing strain and reducing localized stress concentration, the sensor achieves balanced sensitivity, low hysteresis, fast response, and long‐term durability.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2298-2314, September 2026.
Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

Toward Repurposing Global Passive Air Sampling Networks for Insect Monitoring: Promises and Pitfalls of Airborne eDNA

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Our key findings show that polyurethane passive air samplers can sample insects, although highly abundant insects tend to be overrepresented. Our results also suggest that airborne eDNA might give us a broad temporal image of the insect communities over several weeks, rather than a snapshot of when samples are collected.

Association between annual twin delivery volume and severe postpartum hemorrhage in twin pregnancies

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 174, Issue 3, Page 1536-1546, September 2026.
Abstract Objective To assess the association between the risk of severe postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and the annual twin delivery volume of maternity units. Methods JUmeaux MODe d'Accouchement (JUMODA) was a national observational prospective population‐based cohort of twin deliveries in 176 French maternity units performing more than 1500 annual ...

Data for: Behavioral variation post-invasion: resemblance in some but, not all, behavioral patterns among invasive and native praying mantids

, 2018
Behavioral measurements of two sympatric species of mantids from a population in northern California. Columns include individual ID, species, sex, maximum mass, starting mass, trial number, assigned prey size, latency to move, time to leave circle, time ...
