The pollen morphology of all 25 species of Monsonia L. (Geraniaceae) has been studied. The pollen grains are tricolpate, subprolate to spheroidal. The exine structure is reticulate. The nexine consists only of nexine 1 (footlayer). The pollen of Monsonia species cannot be identified to species level. They have to be assigned to pollen types or subtypes.

Pollen morphology of Andrographideae (Acanthaceae)
Abstract Pollen morphology of Andrographis Wallich, Cystacanthus T. Anderson, Diotacanthus Bentham, Gymnostachyum Nees, Haplanthus Nees and Phlogacanthus Nees from Andrographideae (Acanthaceae) is described and illustrated. Pollen morphological variation is compared to accepted generic limits.

Microbial Odorant Detection Guides Drosophila Parasitoids Seeking Hosts in Fermenting Fruits
Yeast microbes in fermenting fruits attract both host flies and their parasitoid wasps. Female Leptopilina boulardi detect yeast‐emitted ethyl esters via two olfactory receptors, LbouOR167 and LbouOR136. A conserved residue, Leu159, is critical for binding these compounds, enabling female wasps to locate host‐rich habitats.
