Alone no more—Integrative taxonomy of New Zealand odd‐clawed spiders challenges the monotypy of Pianoa and Gradungula (Araneae: Gradungulidae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, EarlyView.
Taxonomic revision of New Zealand Gradungulidae reveals unexpected northern South Island diversity through integrated molecular phylogenetics and targeted field sampling. Two new species formally described — Gradungula kahurangi sp. nov. and Pianoa civis sp. nov. — with revised male genitalia diagnoses for all three New Zealand genera.

Winter Temperature Affects Fatty Acid Composition and Gene Expression, but Not Fat Content and Survival in a Northern Population of a Range‐Expanding Spider

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study provides insight into the performance of a range‐expanding species and the physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying thermal tolerance at its expanding edge. ABSTRACT Species expand their geographic distribution when environmental conditions are favorable or when mutations arise that allow them to live in previously unfavorable ...

Neonicotinoid Insecticide Imidacloprid Causes Outbreaks of Spider Mites on Elm Trees in Urban Landscapes

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Background Attempts to eradicate alien arthropods often require pesticide applications. An effort to remove an alien beetle from Central Park in New York City, USA, resulted in widespread treatments of trees with the neonicotinoid insecticide ...

Comparative Genomics of the Endosymbiont Cardinium Causing Reproductive Manipulation in Encarsia Parasitoid Wasps

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
We assembled four Cardinium hertigii draft genomes: cEina3 causes cytoplasmic incompatibility, cEhis1 induces parthenogenesis, cEper2 is associated with parthenogenesis, and cEina2 infects asymptomatically. All four strains are closely related and hosted by Encarsia parasitoid wasps, but key differences exist, including their metabolic potential and ...
