Avian Afterlives: Integrative Taxonomy of Hippoboscid Flies (Diptera) From Citizen‐Reported Bird Carcasses Reveals a New Species and Host–Parasite Diversity in Singapore

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Biodiversity science depends on rigorous characterization of species diversity and ecological roles, yet the ecology of many invertebrate species remains virtually unknown. One pragmatic way to change this is to make use of deceased animals and their companions, such as by salvaging and examining carcasses reported by citizen scientists.

False scorpions (Arachnida, Pseudoscorpiones) from Lower Cretaceous Spanish amber

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 6, November/December 2024.
Abstract Pseudoscorpions, one of the earliest terrestrial lineages dating back to the Middle Devonian period (c. 385 Ma), have a limited fossil record mainly as inclusions in amber. The available fossils are mostly from the Cenozoic era, making it challenging to comprehensively understand their evolutionary history and diversification over time.

Comparative genomics provides insights into molecular adaptation to hypermetamorphosis and cantharidin metabolism in blister beetles (Coleoptera: Meloidae)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 5, Page 975-988, September 2024.
The comparison among newly assembled genomes of five species from the three subfamilies of Meloidae and others already available for blister beetles and canthariphilous species provides new insights into cantharidin biosynthesis and hypermetamorphosis, two crucial aspects of Meloidae biology.

Ionic self-phoresis maps onto correlation-induced self-phoresis

open access: yesEurophysics Letters
Abstract The recently identified mechanism of correlation-induced (self-)chemophoresis highlights that the motion of a catalytically active particle in response to chemical gradients generated by the activity involves a significant activity-dependent response that lies beyond linear-response theory.
