Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)

Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.

The world's oldest man‐made biological experiment

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Biological experiments are often short‐lived due to logistical or resource‐related challenges, and short‐term observations are extrapolated to make long‐term predictions. However, the effects of experimental treatments on biological communities and processes take time to develop.
