Whole‐genome data shed light on speciation and within‐species differentiation of the Papilio machaon complex around the Mediterranean Basin

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...

Genomic Signatures of Ancient Vicariance in Host‐Specific Fungal Endophytes Across the Soltis Line in the Pacific Northwest

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 7, July 2025.
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

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 2, Page 951-967, July 2025.
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]

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...

Evolutionary history, novel lineages and symbiont coevolution in the ant tribe Camponotini (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 646-676, July 2025.
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

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
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 ...
