Harley's Course—Integrating Teachings From Western and Indigenous Sciences in an Undergraduate Biology Course

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
This paper describes a relational land‐based learning experiential field course that bridges Western and Indigenous scientific worldviews. We describe the impact of incorporating traditional Indigenous paradigms and knowledge into post‐secondary science curriculum and the challenges inherent in decolonizing Western science.

Habitat characteristics and nest of the ladybird spider, Eresus kollari (Araneae: Eresidae) in South Korea

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Eresus kollari is typically found in dry grasslands and stony steppes; however, in South Korea, it has been primarily found in the humid environments of cemeteries. These spiders have highly localized habitats, and their burrowing and nest‐building habits make them difficult to find and observe in the field.

Afterlife effects of invasive wasp nests on ecosystem functioning

open access: yesEcology, Volume 106, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Legacy effects, defined as persistent ecological impacts after a species extirpation or cessation of activity, can significantly influence ecosystem structure and function. While extensively studied in plant invasions, legacy effects of invasive animals may differ and remain largely unexplored. We assessed the afterlife effects of subterranean

Insect Lipids as Novel Source for Future Applications: Chemical Composition and Industry Applications—A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.
Fat body (FB) acts as a major metabolic center important for the regulation of a variety of physiological processes such as embryogenesis, reproduction, flight, overwintering, protection, and communication. Lipid amounts and fatty acid (FA) composition vary with species, stage of life, and their diet.

Embryogenesis in Myrmicine Ants Combines Features of Short Germ‐Band Development With a Progressive Mode of Segmentation

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 5, Page 284-302, July 2025.
Different insect species exhibit remarkable diversity in the developmental trajectories from fertilized eggs to hatching larvae. For three myrmicine ant species, we observe a novel combination of a developmental features: small embryonic primordia, a mode of embryogenesis termed short/intermediate germ‐band development, and progressive establishment of

Directional Dependence of Magnetization and Coercivity in Hematite Ore Experimentally Deformed in Torsion

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Rock‐magnetic properties are widely used to resolve the composition, concentration, size, shape, and alignment of iron oxides in rock samples. Although anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility is measured routinely, acquisition of remanent magnetization as well as hysteresis loops are usually measured in one direction only.

Spiroacetals and the rise of Campanula specialists: Receptor sensitivity to host‐specific floral scents

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 7, Page 1786-1798, July 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Campanula flowers (Campanulaceae) are visited by generalist and specialist bees of different families. While generalists rely on common volatiles within the floral scent of Campanula, specialist Megachilidae mainly use unusual spiroacetals for host flower recognition ...
