Genomic data refine the species boundary of Papilio machaon and confirm the species status of Papilio saharae, with clarification of subspecies delineation of Mediterranean machaon and saharae. A heterogeneous level of genome‐wide heterozygosity between island and continental lineages warrants further taxonomic implications, and there is also evidence ...

The American species of the annulatipes group of the subgenus Lepidohelea, genus Forcipomyia (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) [PDF]
The annulatipes group of the genus Forcipomyia Meigen, subgenus Lepidohelea Kieffer, is represented in the Western Hemisphere by 12 species. Keys are presented for their identification, and to distinguish them from other groups of the subgenus ...

ABSTRACT Aim Foliar fungal endophytes are a highly diverse component of most plants, both in terms of taxonomic composition and function. Investigating the biogeography of these microbial symbionts in well‐studied regions complements our understanding of the patterns and processes already inferred for animals and plants.

Nectar metabolomes contribute to pollination syndromes
Summary ‘Pollination syndromes’, where convergent floral signals reflect selection from a functional pollinator group, are often characterized by physical features, yet floral rewards such as nectar may also reflect selection from pollinators. We asked whether nectar chemistry shows evidence of convergence across functional pollinator groups, i.e.

A new genus for the Neotropical species of Aesalus Fabricius, with descriptions of eight new species (Coleoptera: Lucanidae: Aesalinae) [PDF]
The Neotropical members of the genus Aesalus Fabricius (Coleoptera: Lucanidae: Aesalinae) are transferred to a new genus, Trogellus, due to their morphological dissimilarity and molecular divergence from the Old World species of Aesalus, and the new ...

Phylogenomic data illuminate the evolutionary history of the ant tribe Camponotini and its obligate bacterial endosymbiont, Blochmannia, and suggest a Paleotropical Eocene origin of the association. We discover three novel lineages of camponotine ants, previously misidentified as members of the large cosmopolitan genus Camponotus.

Birds, Bats or Climate? Eucalypt Floral Traits Reflect Pollination Over Abiotic Environment
Flower colour and size have evolved in tandem in the eucalypts, with larger and more colourful flowers arising multiple times in southwest Western Australia. Eucalypt flower size and colour are more strongly associated with the vertebrate pollination environment—especially the absence of flower‐visiting bats—than with climatic or soil conditions ...
