Island‐restricted reptiles are more threatened but less studied than their mainland counterparts

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Reptiles are highly diverse on islands, yet there is no comprehensive overview of island‐restricted reptiles (IRRs) regarding their distribution, threat status, and research efforts. Our assessment revealed that despite IRRs comprising nearly a quarter of global reptile species and 30.8% being threatened, only 7.2% of the literature focuses on them ...

Genetic Mapping of Orofacial Traits Reveals a Single Genomic Region Associated With Differences in Multiple Parameters of Jaw Size Between Astyanax mexicanus Surface and Cavefish

Evolution &Development, EarlyView.
By performing a genetic association study in cave × surface fish F2 hybrids, we discovered that premaxilla width, dentary length, and maxillary length are all significantly associated with a region on Chromosome 13 containing 109 genes. ABSTRACT The regulation of bone size is a poorly understood and complex developmental process.

Chrysoperla externa (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae) as a Potential Biological Control Agent of Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae)

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
First and third instar Chrysoperla externa showed efficient predatory capacity at low R. indica density, but second instar C. externa exhibits a density‐dependent predatory ability. The lacewing C. externa shows promise as a biocontrol agent for R. indica in coconut because it consumed 8362 R. indica females across all its larval instars.

What Goes First? Effects of Starvation on the Body Condition of a Neotropical Dung Beetle

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We investigated how prolonged starvation affects key physiological traits in the dung beetle Dichotomius bos. Prolonged starvation leads to significant reductions in body dry mass and fat reserves, while muscle mass remains unchanged. These findings indicate that dung beetles prioritize the maintenance of locomotor muscles while mobilizing stored ...

Solving the trophic puzzle: Host–parasite associations in Neotropical fig wasps associated with fig trees of section Americanae

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
We determined the trophic associations among fig wasp species associated with Ficus citrifolia by integrating gall morphology, the temporal sequence of wasp colonization, and oviposition behaviour. Dissection of galls produced by four gall‐inducing species at a late developmental phase enabled direct identification of occupants and inference of host ...

Height and phytotelm size affect the invertebrate communities of epiphytic bromeliads in the Amazon rainforest

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
The height at which epiphytic bromeliads are found affects the invertebrate community composition within them. The size of epiphytic bromeliads is positively correlated with species richness of both aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates. Whether bromeliads were found in primary or secondary forest did not have a significant effect on the community of ...
