Divergent defense strategies and niche partitioning in Cretaceous micro‐beetles

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 354-362, March 2026.
We report a new clambid beetle from mid‐Cretaceous Kachin amber, Scutacalyptus kolibaci gen. et sp. nov., characterized by a flattened body and explanate margins. Alongside spiny and conglobating clambid forms, this diversity reflects niche partitioning and varied antipredator strategies in the Cretaceous forest floor.

Phenotypic Matching Without Genetic Correlation in Dimorphic Legs of Bulb Mites

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We tested for male dimorphism in the weapon‐like third legs and putative compensatory fourth legs of the bulb mite Rhizoglyphus echinopus. Although males with thicker third legs tended to have longer fourth legs, neither trait predicted fighting success, and the correlation was phenotypic but not genetic.

Thermophilization over space but not time among communities of ground‐dwelling arthropods in a desert city

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Thermophilization of communities, or shifts in composition favoring more warm‐adapted species, over time and space is a common response to warming from global climate change and localized effects of land‐use change. However, the interplay between community thermophilization driven by temporal warming in global climate and spatial warming in ...
