Ant‐Associated Beetle Fauna in Bulgaria: A Review and New Data
The rich myrmecofauna in Bulgaria, comprising about 170 species, constitutes favorable settings for a diverse associated fauna. An attempt to summarize the fragmented faunal data on this ecological group in Bulgaria, together with inclusion of new data, has resulted in a comprehensive list of 121 beetle species from 14 families, obligate or facultative

We provide a robust estimate of the phylogeny of the tribe Silphini using five molecular markers and comprehensive taxon sampling across all 12 genera. Our study provides the first biogeographical insight into the origin of the tribe Silphini suggesting a most likely origin across Neotropical, Oriental and/or Australian regions.

Myrmecophily in beetles (Coleoptera): evolutionary patterns and biological mechanisms [PDF]
Socially parasitic myrmecophily has evolved numerous times in arthropods, but myrmecophilous lineages are non-randomly distributed across phylogeny. Evolution of this way of life is heavily biased towards the Coleoptera, within this order towards rove ...

Patterns of aerial arthropod biomass and diversity from three regions of boreal Alaska
We documented aerial arthropod biomass and diversity over 4 years in three regions in boreal Alaska—two in central Alaska and one in southcentral Alaska. Traps yielded 115,078 specimens of 15 orders and 692 unique taxa. Mean aerial arthropod biomass was more than three times higher in Fairbanks than in Anchorage.
