The Significance of Protandry in Social Hymenoptera

The American Naturalist, 1983
An optimization model is constructed for an annual eusocial wasp or bee which may at any time produce workers and/or male and female reproductives. The optimal policy is to produce only workers at first, and at some critical time switch to producing only reproductives, confirming the conclusion of Macevicz and Oster (1976).

A putative case of honeyeater‐driven sympatric speciation associated with corolla shape shift resulting in a new New Caledonian Oxera species

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1299-1311, November 2025.
Investigating the morphology and ecology of two sympatric species of the Oxera (Lamiaceae) genus in New Caledonia and their respective putative pollinators showed that two species of honeyeaters are likely the preferred pollinators because of their respective sizes, bill and tongue lengths, and behavior.

Phenology determines seasonal variation in ectoparasite loads in a natural insect population [PDF]

, 2010
1. The extent to which individuals are parasitised is a function of exposure to parasites and the immune response, which in ectotherms may be associated with temperature. 2.

Male-biased gonadal differentiation in hatchery-reared blackthroat seaperch Doederleinia berycoides and development of molecular markers to elucidate sex differentiation mechanisms

Frontiers in Marine Science
In the seed production of commercially valuable blackthroat seaperch Doederleinia berycoides, the sex ratio is often skewed toward males. To address this imbalance, several environmental and dietary approaches have been examined; however, the issue ...
