The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations
Insect Science, EarlyView.This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Sperm Transfer Under Behavioral and Morphological Constraints in the Orb‐Web Spider Genus Argiope
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.The polygamous mating system of the orb‐web spider genus Argiope provides a model to study the evolution of sperm transfer under morphological and behavioral constraints. This helps us to understand how male and female behavioral and morphological reproductive traits influence sperm transfer.
