Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

Effects of organic solvents on the depth‐of‐cure determination of conventional and bulk‐fill resin composites

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the influence of organic solvents on the depth of cure (DOC) of resin composites. Two conventional (Filtek Universal [FU] and Beautifil II [BE]) and two bulk‐fill (Filtek One Bulk Fill [FO] and Beautifil‐Bulk [BB]) composites were evaluated.

Wood Thrush (Hylocichla mustelina) occupancy patterns reveal sensitivity to low precipitation on nonbreeding grounds in northern Costa Rica

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Climatic change and anthropogenic disturbances are reshaping animal populations. Habitat loss and extreme climatic events are particularly strong drivers of declines in species that depend on forested areas. For migratory songbirds, climate and the persistence of suitable habitat over time are fundamental to sustaining populations annually.
