Towards red listing understudied tropical insects: A case study of the dung beetles of Sabah, Malaysian Borneo

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We performed an IUCN Red List assessment for 159 dung beetle species from Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. Due to the lack of population demographic data, only Criterion B (i.e. geographic range) could be applied. Our findings show that the IUCN Red List Criteria can be applied to insect species based solely on occurrence data but highlight the importance of ...

Final Subduction Processes of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean in the Alxa Tectonic Belt (NW China): Constraints From Field and Chronological Data of Permian Arc‐Related Volcano‐Sedimentary Rocks

Tectonics, 2018
The timing of final subduction and closure of the Paleo‐Asian Ocean (PAO) is controversial. Located in a key position within the southern Central Asian Orogenic Belt, the Alxa Tectonic Belt (ATB) provides a crucial window to evaluate the final subduction

Morphology and osteo‐histology of the weigeltisaurid wing: Implications for aerial locomotion in the world's first gliding reptiles

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates the morphology and osteo‐histology of the wing skeleton of the world's first gliding reptiles, showing how it differs from those of extant gliding lizards, yet is also convergently similar. These findings pave the way for future biomechanical studies on the gliding locomotion of these emblematic fossil animals. Abstract The Late

Population and herbarium genomics provide a comprehensive framework for a revision of Microcoleus (Cyanobacteria)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microcoleus is a cosmopolitan, filamentous cyanobacterium and a key component of biological soil crusts—complex microbial communities essential for primary production in diverse terrestrial environments. Here, we performed a taxonomic revision of several species of Microcoleus based on a large population genomic dataset.
