An annotated checklist of springtails (Hexapoda, Collembola) from Vojvodina province, Republic of Serbia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics, 2023
Based on all collected literature dealing with the fauna of springtails in Vojvodina Province (Republic of Serbia), a list of species was created and taxonomically revised according to the latest system of Collembola taxonomy. In total, the check list of

A new species of the family Sturmiidae (Collembola: Symphypleona) from Panama [PDF]

open access: yesZootaxa, 2011
Sturmius panamaensis sp. nov. from the canopies of the San Lorenzo Forest in Panama is described and illustrated. The new species lacks a pseudonychium on the ungues, has a smaller mucro than the other species in the genus, and females have long anal appendices. A key to identify the three species known in the family is provided.

Mating and aggregative behaviors among basal hexapods in the Early Cretaceous. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Among the many challenges in paleobiology is the inference and reconstruction of behaviors that rarely, if ever, leave a physical trace on the environment that is suitable for fossilization.

Evolutionary, Functional and Mechanistic Characterisation of Microbial Terpene Synthase‐Like Genes From Springtails

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A genome analysis revealed the presence of many bacterial‐type terpene synthases in springtails. Four enzymes from Sinella curviseta were functionally characterised, resulting in the isolation of several compounds including sinellene ether, the first diterpene ether identified from a terpene synthase that represents a novel skeleton.

Beyond species diversity: Functional responses of cave arthropods to microclimatic stability and structural complexity

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 715-728, August 2026.
Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Geographic Variation in the Diet of Red Knot (Calidris canutus) Chicks Reflects Local Prey Communities

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To describe and compare the diets of an Arctic‐breeding shorebird, the Red Knot (Calidris canutus), across three geographically distinct breeding sites. We aimed to document the dietary patterns and identify key prey groups that characterise each population's foraging ecology.

Combined heat and drought affect the abundance, composition and diversity of subalpine surface‐active soil arthropod communities

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 98-112, February 2026.
We applied factorial soil warming and moisture reduction treatments directly in the field in the Australian subalpine to assess changes to surface‐active soil arthropod abundance, diversity and community composition. After identifying nearly 50,000 specimens to order, we found a stronger effect of sampling month than treatment.
