Insights on the phenology of the Asian longhorned tick (Haemaphysalis longicornis) using stored lipids

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Lipid analysis of field‐collected ticks unveiled a complex population structure and supports the potential for several stages to overwinter. Abstract The seasonality of Haemaphysalis longicornis in the United States comprises overlapping life stages in the spring and summer.

Latitudinal Variation in Seasonal Activity and Mortality in Ratsnakes (Elaphe obsoleta)

open access: yes, 2010
The ecology of ectotherms should be particularly affected by latitude because so much of their biology is temperature dependent. Current latitudinal patterns should also be informative about how ectotherms will have to modify their behavior in response ...

Genetic and phenotypic variation in wood tiger moths from the Caucasus: insights into male warning color variation

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Coloration serves several fitness‐related functions, including thermoregulation, immunity, social signaling, sexual selection, and predator avoidance. Consequently, color polymorphism can have a significant impact on a species’ interactions with its environment, including its relationships with predators, prey, and potential mates. The wood tiger moth (
