Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective The objective is to evaluate cognitive and behavioral progression and identify early predictors of these changes in a cohort of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients. Methods A total of 161 ALS patients were tested at diagnosis (T0), and 107 were re‐tested after 1 year (T1) using cognitive/behavioral tests. All patients underwent whole‐

Emulating duration and curvature of coral snake anti-predator thrashing behaviors using a soft-robotic platform [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This paper presents a soft-robotic platform for exploring the ecological relevance of non-locomotory movements via animal-robot interactions. Coral snakes (genus Micrurus) and their mimics use vigorous, non-locomotory, and arrhythmic thrashing to deter predation.

The anti-predatory behavioral repertoire of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
, 2013 This is the poster presented by the first author, Abhijna Anand Parigi, at the 4th annual BEACON congress, August 2013 at Michigan State University. This represents some of our currently unpublished work to describe the set of behaviors (ethogram) for Drosophila melanogaster under risk of predation by the Zebra jumping spider (Salticus scenicus).

Prey-tracking behavior and prey preferences in a tree-climbing firefly [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Prey-tracking behavior is common in snail-killing predators, but in the family Lampyridae, this behavior has been validated in only a single species even though this Coleopteran family includes many specialist snail predators.

Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Sabertoothed mammalian predators, all now extinct, were almost exclusively feloid carnivorans (Eutheria, Placentalia): here a couple of extinct metatherian predators are considered in comparison with the placental sabertooths. Thylacosmilus (the “marsupial sabertooth”) and Thylacoleo (the “marsupial lion”) were both relatively large (puma ...

New record of predatory ladybird beetle (Coleoptera, Coccinellidae) feeding on extrafloral nectaries
Revista Brasileira de Entomologia, 2011 New record of predatory ladybird beetle (Coleoptera, Coccinellidae) feeding on extrafloral nectaries. Feeding by Exoplectra miniata (Germar) on extrafloral nectaries of Inga edulis Mart. was observed in Nova Friburgo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The Evolving Ecosystem of Predatory Journals: A Case Study in Indian Perspective [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Digital advancement in scholarly repositories has led to the emergence of a large number of open access predatory publishers that charge high article processing fees from authors but fail to provide necessary editorial and publishing services. Identifying and blacklisting such publishers has remained a research challenge due to the highly volatile ...
