Cryptically galled infructescence: a new sheoak gall type in Allocasuarina luehmannii and Casuarina pauper (Casuarinaceae) [PDF]
Insect galls formed within the infructescences (cones) of Allocasuarina luehmannii and Casuarina pauper in southern New South Wales, Australia, are described. The galling was internal within the infested cones, which were small and irregularly developed,

Phylogenetic relatedness of co‐occurring species is often used as a proxy for inferring prior assembly processes. However, this approach ignores the possibility that different phylogenetic lineages may have evolved distinct assembly processes. Here, we directly observed assembly processes through changes in the co‐occurrence patterns of 1770 pairs of ...

Response of mirid predators to synthetic herbivore‐induced plant volatiles [PDF]
Zoophytophagous plant bugs feed on plant tissue as a source of water and nutrients, besides feeding on prey. By phytophagy, mirid predators activate plant defense responses through different pathways, resulting, among others, in the release of herbivore ...

A newly generated large‐scale molecular phylogeny of true ladybirds (Coccinellini) clarifies their evolutionary relationships and supports a boreotropical origin in the Paleocene, with multiple independent southward dispersals. Ancestral diet reconstructions suggest an initial specialization on aphids, followed by expansions in host range and ...
