MANDIBULAR FORCE OF ADULT AND LARVAL PASSALIDAE IN FAMILY GROUPS
ACTA ZOOLÓGICA MEXICANA (N.S.), 1985 la fuerza de las mandíbulas de larvas y adultos de grupos familiares de diversas especies de coleópteros de la familia Passalidae fue medida mediante un dinamómetro. los resultados muestran diferencias significativas entre las fuerzas ejercidas por los adultos y las larvas, situándose los adultos tenerales entre estos dos extremos.

Evolution of Animal Parasitism in Nematodes of the Suborder Spirurina. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study reconstructs the evolutionary history of parasitism in Spirurina by integrating ancestral state reconstruction (ASR) with a comprehensive phylogenetic framework. Our analyses reveal clear patterns of hostswitching and major transitions in host associations, providing the first broad evolutionary perspective on parasitism within this group ...

New World dung beetle (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae) colonization of a recent Miocene insular territory: The case of Costa Rica. [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn Costa Rica, Canthidium and Onthophagus have abrupt diversity declines above 1500 m a.s.l. Endemic species showed narrower vertical distribution when compared to non‐endemic ones. Abstract Costa Rica emerged from the seas as a new geological territory during the Miocene as an insular archipelago.

Isolation and Characterization of Yeasts Able to Assimilate Sugarcane Bagasse Hemicellulosic Hydrolysate and Produce Xylitol Associated with Veturius transversus (Passalidae, Coleoptera, and Insecta). [PDF]
Int J Microbiol, 2017 Yeasts are an important component of insect gut microbial content, playing roles such as degradation of polymers and toxic compounds, biological control, and hormone, vitamin, and digestive enzyme production. The xylophagous beetle gut is a hyperdiverse habitat and a potential source of new species with industrial abilities such as enzyme production ...

Systematic Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 672-686, October 2023., 2023 Phylogenetic analyses of > 4,000 genes of more than 50 species of Scarabaeoidea supports monophyly of Scarabaeidae and confirms sister group relationship of dung beetles and phytophagous pleurostict scarabs. Supermatrix‐based maximum likelihood and multispecies coalescent phylogenetic analyses confirm paraphyly of Melolonthinae. We consequently suggest
