Optimizing eDNA Metabarcoding Techniques for Assessing Arthropod Communities in Tree‐Related Microhabitats

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–February 2025.
This study highlights the significance of using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to study forest arthropods associated with tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs) and deadwood. We find that our tree surface sampling effectively captured ecologically significant arthropods associated with TreMs, exhibiting overlap with other deadwood sediment samples ...

Marsupial extension in terrestrial isopods (Crustacea, Isopoda, Oniscidea) [PDF]

, 2011
In Oniscidea, the marsupium is a ventral pouch where the offspring develop independently of an external water source. The marsupium is formed by five pairs of overlapping oostegites that develop in the females during their reproductive period.

Hidden diversity in eastern North America: The genus Ligidium (Oniscidea, Ligiidae) in the southern Appalachian Mountains

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 53, Issue 5, Page 712-731, September 2024.
Abstract The terrestrial isopod genus Ligidium includes 58 species from Europe, Asia, and North America. In Eastern North America four species are recognized: L. floridanum and L. mucronatum, known just from their type localities in Florida and Louisiana respectively, L. blueridgensis, endemic to the southern Appalachians, and L.

Rewilding soil and litter invertebrates and fungi increases decomposition rates and alters detritivore communities

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
Rewilding entire communities of invertebrates and fungi during ecological restoration increased detritivore abundances. We found this had cascading effects that enhanced the efficiency of decomposition in revegetated farmland sites. Abstract Habitat degradation and associated reductions in ecosystem functions can be reversed by reintroducing or ...

Nature‐Inspired Anti‐Reflective Texturization for Solar Energy Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 9, Issue 2, January 22, 2024.
Solar energy is a renewable energy source. One of the primary obstacles to its efficient utilization lies in addressing optical losses. In this review, we offer a thorough examination of texturization, which takes place in nature and has been recently explored as a method to suppress an inevitable reflection and enhance surface transparency.
