Heterokairic Genes and the Eco‐Evo‐Devo of Timing

Evolution &Development, Volume 28, Issue 2, June 2026.
Heterokairic genes as the bridge (Heterokairic Pathways?): Heterokairic genes are heterochronic regulators whose activity is modulated by environmental conditions. External cues (e.g., temperature, nutrition, oxygen, density: yellow box) are sensed (yellow arrows) and converted into endocrine and metabolic signals (purple box and arrow into fish's ...

Multiparasitism Resolves the Apparent Paradox of High Male Pheromone Investment Despite Frequent Within‐Host Mating in a Parasitoid

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 6, Page 579-588, June 2026.
It is unknown why males of the parasitoid wasp Nasonia giraulti produce large amounts of a costly sex pheromone although they were long thought to mate with their females already before emergence within the host. Mated females do no longer respond to the pheromone.

Impact of Female Mating Status on Male Courtship Behaviour in a Sexually Cannibalistic New Zealand Fishing Spider

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 6, Page 373-384, June 2026.
Scoring of male courtship behaviour in Dolomedes minor revealed no effect of female mating status on courtship duration or sequence structure, but males delayed the initiation of courtship when encountering previously mated females. ABSTRACT The evolution of male courtship rituals has traditionally been attributed to female mate selection, but may also

Behavioral Responses of Two Common Woodland Salamanders to Novel Urban Stimuli

Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 6, Page 430-439, June 2026.
We examined behavioral responses of the Eastern Red‐backed Salamander (Plethodon cinereus) and Northern Ravine Salamander (P. electromorphus) to novel urban stimuli. The Northern Ravine Salamander exhibited increased thigmotaxis in the presence of concrete pavers simulating roads and walkways.
