Daimophyllon gen. nov., a striking new genus of Athetini rove beetle (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) from Brazil with description of two new species

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 4, November 2025.
Abstract Among the Aleocharinae rove beetles, the tribe Athetini is one of the most diverse and morphologically poorly delimited, obviously non‐monophyletic groups, with approximately 4000 described species. Despite overlapping morphological diagnoses of Athetini and other tribes such as Oxypodini, as well as many poorly delimited genera in Athetini ...

Guest‐Induced Reversible Phase Conversion via Spin Frustration Relief in Spin‐Intercalated Layered Antiferromagnets

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 39, October 20, 2025.
Reversible switching between “evident” (evident spin frustration, FR‐e) and “hidden” (hidden spin frustration, FR‐h) frustrated behavior is realized for the first time in spin‐intercalated layered magnets by regulating the competitive magnetic environment of JLL and JLS via solvent ad‐/desorption.

Medicinal Foodstuffs. XI. Histamine Release Inhibitors from Wax Gourd, the Fruits of Benincasa hispida COGN.

open access: yesYAKUGAKU ZASSHI, 1998
The methanol extract of wax gourd (Japanese name "Tougan"), the fruits of Benincasa hispida COGN. (Cucurbitaceae), was found to show inhibitory activity on the histamine release from rat exudate cells induced by antigen-antibody reaction. Through bioassay-guided separation, four known triterpenes and two known sterols were isolated as active components
