Foraging of Scaptotrigona aff. depilis (Hymenoptera, Apidae) in an Urbanized Area: Seasonality in Resource Availability and Visited Plants

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
The floral sources used by bees can be identified by analyzing pollen grains obtained from their bodies, feces, brood cells, or storage pots in the nests. In addition to data on resource availability, this information enables the investigation on the selection of food resource by bees. We assessed the foraging patterns of Scaptotrigona aff.

Dietary flexibility of the greater bamboo lemur (Prolemur simus), a specialized feeder, in eastern Madagascar

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 86, Issue 5, May 2024.
“Percentage of feeding observations of Prolemur simus on bamboo and non‐bamboo resources across three study sites” Abstract The degree of dietary flexibility in primates is species specific; some incorporate a wider array of resources than others. Extreme interannual weather variability in Madagascar results in seasonal resource scarcity which has been

A Review of the Biology of Cerataphidini (Hemiptera, Aphididae, Hormaphidinae), Focusing Mainly on Their Life Cycles, Gall Formation, and Soldiers

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
Species of the aphid tribe Cerataphidini (Hormaphidinae) form galls of various shapes on Styrax trees, their primary host, throughout East and Southeast Asia including tropical rainforests. All known species of the tribe produce second‐instar sterile soldiers on the primary host and some also produce first‐instar sterile soldiers on the secondary host.

Pre‐contact and post‐colonial ecological legacies shape Surinamese rainforests

Ecology, Volume 105, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract Disturbances in tropical forests can have long‐lasting ecological impacts, but their manifestations (ecological legacies) in modern forests are uncertain. Many Amazonian forests bear the mark of past soil modifications, species enrichments, and fire events, but the trajectories of ecological legacies from the pre‐contact or post‐colonial ...

Genome Size Dynamics and Evolution in Monocots

Journal of Botany, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
Monocot genomic diversity includes striking variation at many levels. This paper compares various genomic characters (e.g., range of chromosome numbers and ploidy levels, occurrence of endopolyploidy, GC content, chromosome packaging and organization, genome size) between monocots and the remaining angiosperms to discern just how distinctive monocot ...

Nuclear phylogenomics of angiosperms and insights into their relationships and evolution

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 66, Issue 3, Page 546-578, March 2024.
This review synthesizes numerous nuclear phylogenomic analyses of angiosperms (analyses that resolved the relationships of major clades, most orders, and many families and subgroups) and discusses the improved understanding of angiosperm biogeography, diversification dynamics, and character evolution.
