New records of mites (Acari: Mesostigmata, Sarcoptiformes, Trombidiformes) from Hama Province, Syria

Acarologia
This research aimed to identify phytophagous and predatory mites occurring on several plant species in Hama governorate, Syria, during 2023-2024. As a result, 33 species from 12 families and three orders (one Mesostigmata, two Sarcoptiformes and nine ...

Another tool in the toolbox: Aphid‐specific Wolbachia protect against fungal pathogens

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2024.
Wolbachia infected more than 80% of Pentalonia aphids sampled across the Hawaiian Islands and other locations. The aphid‐specific M‐supergroup strains of this symbiont protected against a specialist fungal pathogen, Pandora, but not the generalist pathogen Beauveria or the parasitoid Aphidius colemanii.

Diet components associated with specific bacterial taxa shape overall gut community compositions in omnivorous African viverrids

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2024.
This study employs DNA metabarcoding on faecal samples to analyse the diets and gut bacterial communities of two African mammals within the order Carnivora: Civettictis civetta and Genetta spp. We demonstrate a significantly higher number of diet taxa than previous morphological studies, offering deeper insights into the feeding behaviours of these ...

DNA metabarcoding reveals seasonal changes in diet composition across four arthropod‐eating lizard species (Phrynosomatidae: Sceloporus)

Integrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 480-495, May 2024.
By applying DNA metabarcoding approach, we explored the seasonal diet variation among four Sceloporus lizard species (S. aeneus, S. bicanthalis, S. grammicus, and S. spinosus) inhabiting a mountainous region in central Mexico. Our results demonstrated that these species are generalist predators feeding on different arthropod orders such as Coleoptera ...

Update of the national checklist and new records of oribatid mites (Acari: Sarcoptiformes) in conserved relicts within urban areas in Bogota D.C. (Colombia)

Acarologia
Conserved urban relicts represent unvaluable reservoirs of biodiversity. In Bogotá (Colombia), these ecosystems remain poorly studied, and particularly oribatid mites have been historically neglected.

Capacity and establishment rules govern the number of nonnative species in communities of ground‐dwelling invertebrates

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2024.
We use the North American NEON pitfall trapping network to document the number of nonnative species from 51 invertebrate communities, testing four classes of drivers. We found evidence for two types of constraints on nonnative diversity. Consistent with Capacity rules (i.e., how the number of niches and individuals reflect the number of species an ...
