Monitoring arthropods under the scope of LIFE-SNAILS project: I - Santa Maria Island baseline data with implementation of the Index of Biotic Integrity [PDF]
The database we introduce is a pivotal component of the LIFE SNAILS project (Support and Naturalisation in Areas of Importance for Land Snails). This initiative is dedicated to safeguarding three endangered species of terrestrial molluscs, specifically ...

Two species of the genus Euconnus Thomson (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Scydmaeninae) new to Korea
The genus Euconnus Thomson (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Scydmaeninae) includes four species in Korea. In this study, E. (s. str.) fustiger and E. (s. str.) dulcis are recorded for the first time Korea and E. (Cladoconnus) rudimentalis is redescribed. As a

Understanding the effects of elevation and other forest characteristics on saproxylic and non‐saproxylic Coleoptera is a step towards predicting the future of functional group and taxonomic biodiversity at the tree‐line and on mountains. Our results suggest that abundance of saprotrophs is closely linked to the density of large trees rather than the ...

ABSTRACT Investigations at Oak Tree Fields, Cerney Wick, Gloucestershire, in western England have revealed a sequence of fluvial deposits dating from Marine Oxygen Isotope Stage (MIS) 7 to 5. At the base of the sequence, a series of gravel and sand facies were deposited, initially as part of a meandering river.

We evaluated deep learning models for image classification under a realistic setting of biodiversity surveys, where models trained with global image sources predict samples from an unstudied target area. The accuracy of between‐datasets predictions (across disparate source–target pairs that do not share any species) was 82% and depended greatly on the ...

Abstract Cork oak landscapes are fascinating ecosystems, historically managed for cork extraction. The persistence in this habitat of many hollow veteran trees provides suitable micro‐habitats for saproxylic beetles. We investigated the saproxylic beetle community of two isolated cork oak woodlands of central Italy with different degree of recovery ...

The thoracic anatomy of Pselaphus heisei (Pselaphinae, Staphylinidae, Coleoptera)
Upper part: SEM micrographs of Pselaphus heisei, lateral view; Lower part: 3D reconstructions of thoracic muscles of Pselaphus heisei, mesal view. Abstract We document external and internal thoracic structures of the free‐living pselaphine beetle Pselaphus heisei (Pselaphitae) using a set of traditional and modern techniques.
