Jumping spider invades an orb web to prey on a resident male
Ecosphere, 2023 While surveying operational sex ratios of the giant golden orb weaver Nephila pilipes (Fabricius, 1793) in Singapore, we documented a stunning case of predatory behavior of a jumping spider Viciria pavesii Thorell, 1877. A female V.

Comparison of thread-cutting behaviour in three specialist predatory mites to cope with complex webs of Tetranychus spider mites [PDF]
Anti-predator defenses provided by complex webs of Tetranychus mites can severely impede the performance of generalist predatory mites, whereas this may not be true for specialist predatory mites.

Predator avoidance in extremophile fish [PDF]
, 2013 Extreme habitats are often characterized by reduced predation pressures, thus representing refuges for the inhabiting species. The present study was designed to investigate predator avoidance of extremophile populations of Poecilia mexicana and P ...

Advanced Photonics Research, EarlyView.This work combines molecular dynamics and finite‐difference time‐domain computational approaches to study the photothermal properties of melanin nanoparticle–based supra‐assemblies. Based on the results of this study, the binary mixtures of melanin and silica with higher concentrations of melanin and with more segregated levels of mixing are able to ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.By studying the maturation mechanisms of vasopressin (AVP), this manuscript identifies FAM134B‐mediated ER‐phagy as a critical pathway for degrading both aggregated proAVP and the key ERAD component, HRD1. HRD1 induction mitigates proAVP aggregation and support AVP neuron function in the absence of autophagy.

The Biology and Ecology of Parasitoid Wasps of Predatory Arthropods.
Annual Review of Entomology, 2022 Parasitoid wasps are important components of insect food chains and have played a central role in biological control programs for over a century. Although the vast majority of parasitoids exploit insect herbivores as hosts, others parasitize predatory ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents 3D‐printed Ti‐6Al‐4V trabecular scaffolds combined with hypoxia‐induced exosomes encapsulated in PEGDA/GelMA microspheres for sustained release. The scaffolds mimic the structure of natural bone, while the exosome delivery system enhances osteogenesis and angiogenesis, significantly promoting bone regeneration and offering a ...

The 20-million-year old lair of an ambush-predatory worm preserved in northeast Taiwan
Scientific Reports, 2021 The feeding behavior of the giant ambush-predator “Bobbit worm” (Eunice aphroditois) is spectacular. They hide in their burrows until they explode upwards grabbing unsuspecting prey with a snap of their powerful jaws.
