Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 4, Page 595-608, August 2025.The two most diverse beetle families, Staphylinidae and Curculionidae (black arrows), have fewer studies of diversity and elevation than expected, while the Carabidae and Scarabaeidae (brown arrows) are overstudied. Dung beetle (Scarabaeidae) phylogenetic and taxonomic diversity decreases with elevation along tropical and temperate elevational ...

The evolution of parental care in insects: A test of current hypotheses
Evolution, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page 1255-1270, May 2015., 2015 Which sex should care for offspring is a fundamental question in evolution. Invertebrates, and insects in particular, show some of the most diverse kinds of parental care of all animals, but to date there has been no broad comparative study of the evolution of parental care in this group.

Ecological Monographs, Volume 95, Issue 1, February 2025.Abstract Deadwood stores about 8% of global carbon stock, and its decomposition is a key factor in forest ecosystems. Deadwood‐associated (saproxylic) organisms constitute a food web that sustains a substantial part of biodiversity globally. After fungi, saproxylic beetles are the most prominent agents of structural deadwood decomposition in forests ...

Austral Entomology, Volume 63, Issue 3, Page 393-405, August 2024.Abstract Understanding the spatiotemporal distribution of diversity has been a significant challenge in the field of conservation biology. Presently, there exists a limited understanding of the spatial distribution of passalid beetles within decomposing logs, as well as their distribution in microhabitats such as the cortex, heartwood and trunk–soil ...

The evolutionary history of Coleoptera (Insecta) in the late Palaeozoic and the Mesozoic
Systematic Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 355-388, July 2024.Structural transformations of the elytra and abdomen played a major role in the early beetle evolution in the Permian. Polyphaga appear late in the fossil record, with only a few fossils of Elateriformia in the Late Triassic. Several factors were involved in the enormous diversification of beetles in the Cretaceous but evolutionary interactions with ...
