Burrowing arthropods can be an important source of food and providers of shelter and understanding factors that contribute to their population fluctuations is important for tracking their dynamic ecosystem interactions. Here we measured the changes in the density of fossorial arthropod burrows and their occupants over a period spanning the tail‐end of ...

ABSTRACT Acoustic and substrate‐borne vibrations are among the most widely used signalling modalities in animals. Arthropods display a staggering diversity of vibroacoustic organs generating acoustic sound and/or substrate‐borne vibrations, and are fundamental to our broader understanding of the evolution of animal signalling.

Abstract DNA contained in animal scat provides a wealth of information about the animal, and DNA metabarcoding of scat collections can provide key information about animal populations and communities. Next‐generation DNA sequencing technologies and DNA metabarcoding provide an efficient means for obtaining information available in scat samples. We used

We determined the complete mitochondrial genome of Polydesmus sp. GZCS‐2019 and all genes encoded on + strand. Several genes rearrangements were detected and we propose a new rearrangement model: “TD (N\R) L + C” based on the genome‐scale duplication + (non‐random/random) loss + recombination. We combine phylogenetic analysis, divergence time, and gene

Abstract Until recently, the reptile fauna of Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean comprised five endemic species (two skinks, two geckos, and one snake) and one native, non‐endemic skink. Four of these species were common and widespread until at least 1979, but by 2012 had disappeared from the wild.
