Feeding ecology of scolopendromorphs: integrating a global literature review with Japanese citizen-sourced data [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Knowledge of food habits is essential for ecological research, yet those are often assessed based on general assumptions rather than evidence, especially in secretive animals that are difficult to observe in the wild, such as centipedes.

A Regional DNA Barcode Library for Northern Rocky Mountain Arthropods to Support Biodiversity and Molecular Ecological Research. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We developed the MPG Ranch Arthropod Library (MPG‐AL), a COI DNA barcode reference library for arthropods of the Northern Rocky Mountains, to address gaps in barcode coverage for the western United States. From 86,533 specimens collected in Montana, we generated 52,270 DNA barcodes spanning 38 orders and 1793 species, adding 5154 Barcode Index Numbers (

The influence of drought, precipitation and fossorial mammal reintroduction on the density of fossorial arthropods and their burrows in arid Australia

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 48, Issue 7, Page 1252-1273, November 2023., 2023
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 ...

Metabarcoding reveals seasonal and spatial patterns of arthropod community assemblages in two contrasting habitats: Desert and oasis of the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 438-461, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Desert springs or oases are the only permanent mesic environments in highly water‐limited arid regions. Oases have immense cultural, evolutionary and ecological importance for people and a high number of endemic and relic species. Nevertheless, they are also highly vulnerable ecosystems, with invasive species, overexploitation and climate ...
