Threats to cycad biocultural heritage in the Amami Islands, Japan

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
The central point we seek to frame in this article is that the increasing infestations of cycad aulacaspis scale in the Amami guntō existentially threaten not only the islands' sotetsu but rather entire cultural systems and natural ecologies that have developed around these plants.

Missouri Botanical Garden's cycad collection: A journey through time

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
This article summarizes the history of the Missouri Botanical Garden's extensive cycad collection. Some of the specimens currently housed in the living collections date back well over 100 years. Cycads continue to face a myriad of threats in the wild, and their conservation in ex situ collections is of critical importance to assist in their survival ...

Ecological factors underlying the spatiotemporal dynamics in a key forest beetle pollinator Facteurs écologiques à la base de la dynamique spatio‐temporelle d'un important coléoptère forestier pollinisateur

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Eusphalerum, an understudied beetle pollinator in North America, comprises over 50% of beetle specimens collected using flight‐intercept traps in forests across New Brunswick, Canada. In a study investigating its phenology, congeneric aggregation and population dynamics, we demonstrated that Eusphalerum exhibits unique phenology distinct from other ...

Environmental changes on the northern Taymyr Peninsula (Russian Arctic) during the last 62 ka inferred from the lacustrine pollen record

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Environmental changes on the northern part of Taymyr Peninsula during the last 62 ka were reconstructed based on pollen assemblages throughout a 46‐m‐long sediment core from Lake Levinson‐Lessing (74°27′54″N, 98°39′58″E). Environmental changes on the northern Taymyr Peninsula were reconstructed based on a new pollen record from a 46‐m‐long sediment ...

The Permian Bacterium that Isn't

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2001
There is growing evidence for the presence of viable microorganisms in geological salt formations that are millions of years old. It is still not known, however, whether these bacteria are dormant organisms that are themselves millions of years old or whether the salt crystals merely provide a habitat in which contemporary microorganisms can grow ...

The impact of the structural framework of the North German Basin on Pleistocene tunnel‐valley formation

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
This study contains a comprehensive regional analysis of the orientations of tunnel valleys, faults and salt structures in the North German Basin, aiming to identify correlations that might indicate a structural control on tunnel‐valley formation. A structural control on tunnel‐valley formation has been repeatedly postulated and correlations have been ...

Permian Aquatic Reptiles

open access: yes, 2019
Eight amniote genera (representing four clades) became aquatic during the Permian. The four clades were mesosaurids, tangasaurids, the neodiapsid Claudiosaurus, and the procolophonid Barasaurus. Two of eight genera survived the end-Permian mass extinction, but did not last long into the Mesozoic.
