Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2024.The Greater Cape Floristic Region at the southern tip of Africa is a global megadiversity hotspot. The region's biodiversity has been driven by a long history of topographic, climatic, and sea level change coupled with geological uplift, and without being exposed to any major climate events such as glaciations since the breakup of Gondwana.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 632-641, July 2024.We show that citizen science data, obtained through GBIF, are suitable for analyses of spatial distribution of morphological types within species like the slender groundhopper T. subulata. Wing morph (long or short) was determined based on photographs accompanying observations, and wing‐morph patterns were related to large‐ and medium‐scale landscape ...

Comparison of water and terrestrial jumping in natural and robotic insects
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1537, Issue 1, Page 13-31, July 2024.Jumping of small creatures demands high power to surpass size‐related speed limits. They employ various mechanisms to amplify power release. Furthermore, semi‐aquatic jumpers use specialized techniques to maximize the momentum transfer from the water.
