The Cephalic Morphology of Protopselaphus-A Phylogenetic Connecting Link in Staphylinidae (Coleoptera). [PDF]
J MorpholThe head morphology including soft tissues of an ethanol‐preserved specimen of Protopselaphus was examined using synchrotron‐µCT and SEM and interpreted with respect to their possible phylogenetic implications. Our findings strongly support the monophyly of Protopselaphinae + Pselaphinae, with adult cephalic synapomorphies including the vertical ...

First South Korean Record of Beetle Suborder Myxophaga Extends Its Documented Range in Continental East Asia. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe report Sphaerius sp. from South Korea, representing the first record of Myxophaga from the Korean Peninsula and extending its known continental East Asian range northeastward. SEM‐based morphology and COI barcode data support its placement in Sphaerius.

Tiny but mighty: Insects can drive carrion decomposition in the absence of facultative vertebrate scavengers. [PDF]
EcologyAbstract Scavengers play a key role in recycling animal biomass, yet the relative contributions of insects and vertebrates to this process remain poorly understood. Moreover, understanding whether one scavenger group can compensate for the absence of another is critical for predicting how carrion decomposition may respond to changes in community ...

Assessing Biodiversity in Agricultural Landscapes Through Drone-Based Environmental DNA Sampling. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe developed a drone‐based environmental DNA (eDNA) swabbing method to assess hexapod diversity in agricultural fields under three management types (conventional, organic, and IP‐Suisse), detecting 75 taxa across 19 families. eDNA replicates showed consistent within‐field results, though no significant differences in diversity were found between ...
