New records of Seira dowlingi (Wray, 1953) (Collembola, Entomobryidae, Seirinae) for New World
Seira dowlingi (Wray, 1953) is recorded for the first time in Peru and Brazil from five states, including Fernando de Noronha archipelago plus a new record from United States. These new records support that S.

Springboards for springtails [PDF]
Travel to overseas destinations is possible even for certain tiny land invertebrates. Although they cannot fly, the ocean is not an insuperable barrier because they can survive for longish periods in sea water.

Pharmaceutical diversity acts as an independent driver of antibiotic resistance in soil invertebrates. While bulk soil remains unaffected, the collembolan gut microbiome exhibits significant resistance gene enrichment under complex chemical exposure and diurnal warming.

Entomobrya petri sp. nov.: A new species of springtail found in the British Isles
A new species of elongate springtail (Collembola: Entomobryomorpha) is described from a churchyard in Edinburgh: Entomobrya petri sp. nov. Microscopic examination of specimens from another site in the UK supports that this new species represents the ...

How to Account for Past Selection When Maternal Effects Are Cascading
Many forms of maternal effects are said to be ‘cascading’, in which an individual's phenotype is partially a function of its mother's phenotype and hence also partially a function of the phenotypes of its previous ancestors. We develop a quantitative genetics modelling framework that treats past maternal states as being under selection in the current ...

Green and conventional synthesis routes produce ZnO nanoparticles with tunable physicochemical properties for food applications, ZnO‐NPs enhance antimicrobial activity, UV protection, and food preservation through ROS generation and ZN2+ release. However, particle dissolution, migration, cytotoxicity, and environmental concerns highlight the need for ...

Pinellia pedatisecta has a simplified inflorescence structure, compared to its congeners with highly specialized trap pollination systems. However, our study suggests that P. pedatisecta also captures and releases pollinating insects by the spathe movement during flowering season.

Climate Warming Drives Northward Contraction and Genetic erosion in a Cold‐Adapted Soil Worm Species
ABSTRACT Aim Climate‐driven range fluctuations since the Pleistocene have repeatedly reshaped species distributions and population structures, with lasting consequences for genetic diversity. Contemporary warming causes similar pressures, yet most work emphasizes range shifts and gives less attention to genetic outcomes.
