Oceanographic heterogeneity facilitates gelatinous zooplankton niche space and diversity
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton serve diverse ecological roles in shelf food webs—from grazers to predators. However, their spatial niches are poorly resolved, especially at detailed taxonomic levels, due to conventional techniques that are unable to measure distributions at fine spatial scales.

Prey Capture Ecology of the Cubozoan Carukia barnesi.
Adult Carukia barnesi medusae feed predominantly on larval fish; however, their mode of prey capture seems more complex than previously described. Our findings revealed that during light conditions, this species extends its tentacles and 'twitches' them ...

A subgeneric classification is proposed for Triepeolus—the second‐largest genus of cleptoparasitic apid bees in the world—and its sister genus Epeolus, with support from a newly presented dated phylogeny. Phylogenomic analysis based on ultraconserved elements revealed strong support for the monophyly of Triepeolus, which diverged from Epeolus sometime ...

Effect of Threonine on the Interaction Between Tau Protein Fragments and M2+ Ions (M = Ni, Cu, Zn)
Structural and conformational transformations of the tau protein contribute to the development of neurodegenerative diseases. Studies indicate that threonine of the ‐ThrXaaHis‐ sequence of tau fragments and mutants affects the spectral data of copper(II) and nickel(II) complexes.
