A Systematic Nomenclature for the Drosophila Ventral Nervous System [PDF]
, 2017 Insect nervous systems are proven and powerful model systems for neuroscience research with wide relevance in biology and medicine. However, descriptions of insect brains have suffered from a lack of a complete and uniform nomenclature.

More than fruity scents: Pollination biology, scent, and spectral reflectance of Annonaceae species
Plant Species Biology, EarlyView.We characterised the floral visual and olfactory cues of numerous Annonaceae species and reported their pollinators. We further assessed the olfactory space of most Annonaceae species available in the literature. Abstract The family Annonaceae possesses a broad array of floral phenotypes and pollination specializations, and are important in the plant ...

LIBERTOPIA: An Intellectual Stroll in Berlin's Tempelhof Park
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Berlin's Tempelhofer Feld, an old airport turned into a public park, stands as a unique urban space. What it is about this simple and massive open space in the heart of a large city that makes it a near‐utopian formation? This essay attempts to explore the meaning of this sociospatial entity, framing it in terms of a ‘libertopia’, to serve as ...

A unified image reconstruction framework for quantitative dual- and triple-energy CT imaging of material compositions [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Many clinical applications depend critically on the accurate differentiation and classification of different types of materials in patient anatomy. This work introduces a unified framework for accurate nonlinear material decomposition and applies it, for the first time, in the concept of triple-energy CT (TECT) for enhanced material differentiation ...

Energetics of pupal-adult metamorphosis in the silkworm, Bombyx mori : An analysis of transdeamination parameters in the fat body and haemolymph [PDF]
, 2018 Transdeamination seems to be an important alternative energy-intensive gluconeogenesis mechanism that generates glucose from non-carbohydrate sources during pupal-adult metamorphosis in Bombyx mori. Studies on four transdeamination parameters, viz., free

Insect Science, EarlyView.We report three ca. 100 million‐year‐old lacewing larvae with extraordinarily large stemmata. One of them additionally has a very wide head, which represents a previously unknown morphology. The arrangement of the stemmata indicates stereoscopic vision in these predatory larvae.
