This manuscript characterizes incidence, diversity, extent of horizontal transfer, and recombination of three different endosymbionts (Wolbachia, Cardinium, and Arsenophonus) in a soil arthropod community. We utilized multilocus strain typing system (MLST) for Wolbachia and 16S rRNA gene for Cardinium and Arsenophonus to answer whether endosymbionts ...

Effects of climate on the phenology of Annona senegalensis Pers. (Annonaceae) and the distribution of associated insects in Burkina Faso. [PDF]
Climatic factors have an impact on the phenology of Annona senegalensis by shortening or lengthening the phenological phases in Burkina Faso. This affects the diversity and abundance of insects associated with this plant in cliamatic zones. Abstract Climate change and global warming in the Sahelian region cause dramatic drought and advancing of the ...

Molecular diet analysis of neotropical bats based on fecal DNA metabarcoding
Inferring the exact diets of small, nocturnal mammals such as bats is notoriously difficult. Limited knowledge of what bats actually eat leaves important trophic interactions and food web networks unclear. Using molecular barcoding of plants, vertebrates, and invertebrates, we report fine‐scale dietary detection for 25 species of Belizean bats ...

Karyotype evolution in progress: A new diploid number in Belostoma candidulum (Heteroptera: Belostomatidae) from Argentina leading to new insights into its ecology and evolution [PDF]
A novel chromosome complement (2n = 14 = 12 + XY/XX; male/female sex chromosomes), male meiosis behaviour, heterochromatin characterization, and frequency and distribution of chiasmata are described for the first time in specimens from a natural ...

Arthropods Associated With Purple Loosestrife in Illinois Wetlands [PDF]
We estimated and described the arthropod fauna on purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) plants in northeastern Illinois wetlands. A total of 1063 individual arthropods were collected—930 insects and 133 arachnids.
