Pest categorisation of Coccus viridis
EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Coccus viridis (Hemiptera: Coccidae), the green coffee scale, for the territory of the European Union (EU), following the commodity risk assessment of Jasminum polyanthum from Uganda, in which C. viridis was identified as a pest of possible concern to the EU.

Dysdera parthenogenetica sp. nov. (Araneae, Dysderidae): A Unique Case of Parthenogenesis in Spiders
Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.We studied the parthenogenetic lineages of the spider Dysdera hungarica (Araneae: Dysderidae). Based on our data, we consider them to constitute a separate taxon, Dysdera parthenogenetica sp. nov. Morphologically, the new species differs mainly by slightly reduced female copulatory organs.

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 51, Issue 11, Page 2211-2220, November 2024.Abstract Aim Understanding the worldwide distribution of species has fascinated scientists at least since Alfred Russel Wallace. Global patterns of belowground biodiversity may fundamentally differ from those of aboveground organisms. Here, we examine the global pattern and potential mechanisms driving the endemism and overlap of a soil microarthropod ...
