Siral‐HPW‐Supported Pd and Ru Catalysts Evaluation for Glycerol Upgrading

open access: yesChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 35, 15 September 2026.
MSiralHPW (M = Ru, Pd, and PdRu) catalysts are active in glycerol hydrogenolysis. Metal (Ru > Pd) and precursor (Cl− > NO3−) influences were verified. Promoting effect of RuO2 reduction by Pd did not influence the metallic dispersion. Residual chlorine promoted acidic sites suitable for the formation of 1,3‐PDO.

Disentangling Multiscale Cation–Anion Dynamics in Li4(BH4)(NH2)3 Using Quasielastic Neutron Scattering

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2026.
Quasielastic neutron scattering disentangles BH4− and NH2− reorientations from Li+ diffusion through the solid framework and captures long‐range BH4− translation upon melting. These findings establish a unified molecular picture of localized and diffusive motions, clarifying the dynamic landscape of ionic transport in Li4(BH4)(NH2)3.

Transfer of Potentially Toxic Metal(loid)s From Ultramafic Soils in a Tri‐Trophic Food Chain Experiment

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Potentially toxic metal(loid)s (PTMs) bioaccumulated across a plant‐herbivore‐predator food chain. Irrespective of soil concentrations, female crickets actively selected PTM‐enriched leaves, while predatory mantids showed no developmental impairment. Trophic transfer of PTMs was rather influenced more by a function of intrinsic species traits than by ...

A first look at the biodiversity of praying mantids (Insecta: Mantodea) in Sabah, Borneo

open access: yes, 2007
Light-trapping was conducted in February and March 2003 near Kinabalu Park and in the Danum Valley Conservation Area in Sabah, Malaysia. During 18 sample nights a total of 106 praying mantids, comprising 28 species, were collected in three different ...

Occurrence of Food Chemical Contaminants in Entomophagy: Implications for Food Safety and Future Risk Assessment—A Scoping Review

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Entomophagy is increasingly recognized as a sustainable alternative to conventional protein sources due to its low environmental impact. However, ensuring its safety requires careful evaluation of chemical contaminants of food safety concern.

Redescription of Stagmomantis hebardi (Mantodea: Mantidae), with the description of the female

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad
The genus Stagmomantis Saussure, 1869 comprises a group of New World mantids whose taxonomic delimitation and composition have been challenging due to complex morphological variation.

Postembryonic development of the predatory strike mechanics in a praying mantis (Insecta: Mantodea)

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 3, Page 377-396, September 2026.
Praying mantis forelegs capture prey using specific kinematic and kinetic traits that change in size and morphology during postembryonic growth and sexual dimorphism influences these dynamics. Strike forces grow hyperallometrically with body weight; larger mantises show longer strike durations, slower joint angular velocities and increased tibia ...

From myth to knowledge: public perception of native and alien praying mantids in Italy and its implications for conservation (Insecta: Mantodea) [PDF]

open access: yes
A sociological survey assessed public perception and knowledge of praying mantids in Italy (n = 222). Although mantids show higher popularity than most insects, persistent misconceptions rooted in cultural myths remain widespread.
