Extreme Silk Toughness in Caerostris Spiders Is Limited to Adult Females

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We ask whether species with exceptionally tough silk, like Caerostris bark spiders, show different developmental patterns in silk toughness between ontogenetic stages and sexes. We found that only large females produce exceptionally tough silk with higher initial stiffness, while juvenile females as well as adult and juvenile males produce inferior ...

An Experimental Approach on Pearl Shell (Pinctada margaritifera) for a Microwear Study of Shell Artefacts From French Polynesia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pinctada margaritifera (black‐lipped pearl oyster) artefacts are ubiquitous in the archaeological record throughout the Pacific and particularly in Polynesia. Despite efforts towards the development of typologies, the lack of microwear and use‐wear studies has prevented the development of technological approaches. We used 20 pearl shell valves

Dynamics of Growth–Feeding Mechanisms in Japanese Anchovy Larvae Under Different Environmental Conditions

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The linkage between growth rate and feeding success in fish larvae has received much attention as a potential indicator of future growth and survival potential. Given the increasing evidence that the growth–survival relationship is highly variable, the growth–feeding linkage would also exhibit variable dynamics among cohorts of the same ...
