Remarkable harvestmen from the Czech Republic [PDF]
The fauna of harvestmen of the Czech Republic is relatively well-known (SILHAVY 1956, MARTENS 1978). Still, species new for the country have recently been found both in natural (KLlMES & BEZDECKA 1995) and synanthropic habitats (KLlMES 1995).

Spider dietary breadth and overlap increased with imperviousness, suggesting that prey and spiders are concentrating in vacant lots in these landscapes. Higher vegetation biomass, which results from reduced mowing frequency, was associated with increased dietary breadth and shared prey between spiders.

On the enigmatic scent glands of dyspnoan harvestmen (Arachnida, Opiliones): first evidence for the production of volatile secretions [PDF]
La utilización en encuestas de preguntas con tarjetas de respuesta está totalmente aceptada por la comunidad investigadora. Esto supone una carga de trabajo “extra” en la tarea del entrevistador, lo que explica que en ocasiones no se utilicen ...

Maize varieties producing insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) have become an important component of integrated pest management worldwide. For regulatory approval of such plants, risks to the environment need to be assessed. To make such assessments less expensive and time‐consuming, conclusions drawn from data collected in one region

ABSTRACT Alpine ecosystems are vulnerable to the warming climate, yet alpine soil mesofauna remains the less studied part of NZ biodiversity. Here we present a survey of soil mesofauna communities of three mountain peaks in the Nelson‐Tasman and Marlborough regions of the South Island of New Zealand.

The first one is an imperfect specimen from the Early Cretaceous (Barremian) laminated limestones of Las Hoyas (Province of Cuenca). The second one is a complete, finely-preserved specimen from the Early Miocene (Burdigalian) lacustrine oil-shales of ...

Macroecology of parental care in arthropods: higher mortality risk leads to higher benefits of offspring protection in tropical climates [PDF]
The intensity of biotic interactions varies around the world, in such a way that mortality risk imposed by natural enemies is usually higher in the tropics.
