Kathrin Steck
Background: Cataglyphis fortis ants forage individually for dead arthropods in the inhospitable salt-pans of Tunisia. Locating the inconspicuous nest after a foraging run of more than 100 meters demands a remarkable orien...
The role of menopause and reproductive senescence in a long-lived social mammal [0.03%]
绝经和生殖衰老在长寿的社会性哺乳动物中的作用
Eric J Ward,Kim Parsons,Elizabeth E Holmes et al.
Eric J Ward et al.
Background: Menopause is a seemingly maladaptive life-history trait that is found in many long-lived mammals. There are two competing evolutionary hypotheses for this phenomenon; in the adaptive view of menopause, the ces...
Comparative larval myogenesis and adult myoanatomy of the rhynchonelliform (articulate) brachiopods Argyrotheca cordata, A. cistellula, and Terebratalia transversa [0.03%]
舌形贝类腕足动物Argyrotheca和Terebratalia的比较胚胎肌生成及成体肌肉解剖学研究

Andreas Altenburger
Background: Despite significant methodological progress, Brachiopoda remains one of the lophotrochozoan phyla for which no recent ontogenetic data employing modern methodologies such as fluorescence labelling and confocal...
Functional morphology and integration of corvid skulls - a 3D geometric morphometric approach [0.03%]
基于三维几何形态计量方法的花旦鸟科鸟类头骨的功能形态与整合性研究
Christoph Kulemeyer,Kolja Asbahr,Philipp Gunz et al.
Christoph Kulemeyer et al.
Background: Sympatric corvid species have evolved differences in nesting, habitat choice, diet and foraging. Differences in the frequency with which corvid species use their repertoire of feeding techniques is expected to...
Integrated taxonomy: traditional approach and DNA barcoding for the identification of filarioid worms and related parasites (Nematoda) [0.03%]
整合分类学：传统方法和DNA条形码在丝虫及其他线虫鉴定中的应用
Emanuele Ferri,Michela Barbuto,Odile Bain et al.
Emanuele Ferri et al.
Background: We compared here the suitability and efficacy of traditional morphological approach and DNA barcoding to distinguish filarioid nematodes species (Nematoda, Spirurida). A reliable and rapid taxonomic identifica...

Astrid T Groot et al.
Background: The fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera; Noctuidae) consists of two distinct strains with different host plant preferences for corn and rice. To assess whether pheromonal-mediated behavioral isola...
Cryptic speciation in a benthic isopod from Patagonian and Falkland Island waters and the impact of glaciations on its population structure [0.03%]
巴塔哥尼亚和福克兰群岛水域底栖等脚类甲壳动物的密码种分异及其种群结构对冰川作用的响应
Florian Leese,Anna Kop,Johann-Wolfgang Wägele et al.
Florian Leese et al.
Background: The Falkland Islands and Patagonia are traditionally assigned to the Magellan Biogeographic Province. Most marine species in Falkland waters are also reported from southern Patagonia. It remains unclear if rel...

The extraction of genetic information from preserved tissue samples or museum specimens is a fundamental component of many fields of research, including the Barcode of Life initiative, forensic investigations, biological studies using scat ...
Parasegmental appendage allocation in annelids and arthropods and the homology of parapodia and arthropodia [0.03%]
环节动物和节肢动物的副体节分配及鳃足与肢足的同源性
Nikola-Michael Prpic
Nikola-Michael Prpic
The new animal phylogeny disrupts the traditional taxon Articulata (uniting arthropods and annelids) and thus calls into question the homology of the body segments and appendages in the two groups. Recent work in the annelid Platynereis dum...
