Temporal Dynamics of Biological Invasions: Perception of Host Quality Differs Between Native and Alien Host Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
The paper uses a set of parasite and host populations to test how time since invasion affects the behavioural interactions between the parasite—the European bitterling (Rhodeus amarus) and their hosts—freshwater mussels. It compares how bitterling make decisions regarding oviposition into the invasive species, Chinese pond mussel, Sinanodonta woodiana,

Phylogenomics and revised classification of Lymexyloidea and Tenebrionoidea (Coleoptera: Polyphaga: Cucujiformia)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 794-812, October 2025.
Using a large‐scale phylogenomic dataset, we provide the robustly supported phylogeny of the wider Tenebrionoid clade, with Lymexyloidea sister to the mordelloid clade (Mordellidae and Ripiphoridae) + remaining Tenebrionoidea. Lymexyloidea contained two newly circumscribed families, each of them with two subfamilies, and both Mordellidae and ...

Genital photoreceptors have crucial role in oviposition in Japanese yellow swallowtail butterfly, Papilio xuthus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Butterflies of both sexes have two pairs of extraocular photoreceptors on the genitalia. Here we demonstrate in female Papilio xuthus that a pair of the genital photoreceptors, P1s, is crucial for oviposition.
