A common cockchafer (Melolontha melolontha), or May-bug, was filmed emitting strong light from a ring-shaped structure on its left elytron in broad daylight. These beetles are known as voracious agricultural pests but not at all for being b...
3D is not just a tool - a study of the anal capsule in Craterostigmus tasmanianus Pocock (1902) (Chilopoda, Arthropoda) [0.03%]
三维不仅仅是工具——南方拟古蜈蚣(Craterostigmus tasmanianus，Pocock 1902)(多足纲，节肢动物门)肛囊的研究

Craterostigmus tasmanianus Pocock, 1902, is a chilopod distinguished, among other features, by a unique structure known as the anal capsule. Morphological questions regarding the anal capsule pertain to the homology of its functional compon...

Various arthropods can roll into a ball for protection. In terrestrial isopods (Oniscidea), this ability has likely evolved independently in different lineages. In this work, comparative imaging of extended and rolled isopods using micro-co...
Evolution and homology of leg segments in Chelicerata: Evo-devo solutions to century-old challenges [0.03%]

A major theme in the evolution of Arthropoda is the origin and diversification of jointed appendages. One appealing framework for the evolution of arthropod appendage diversity has long been that a small network of homologous genes in the p...

Caryosyntrips is a relatively rare but long-lived and geographically widespread radiodont genus with specimens reported from Cambrian Stage 4 to the Drumian of Gondwana and Laurentia. Most of the currently known specimens are from the Wulia...
Sexual dimorphism and ultrastructure of salivary glands in adult Bittacus cirratus Tjeder, 1956 (Mecoptera: Bittacidae) [0.03%]
成年Bittacus cirratus(Tjeder)交配二态性及其唾腺亚显微结构(缨翅目：Bittacidae)

He-Hong Wang et al.
Sexual dimorphism is ubiquitous in insects and has been extensively studied across various taxa. However, it remains unclear whether the salivary glands exhibit sexual dimorphism in adult Bittacidae. In this study, a comparative study of sa...
Ultrastructural and light/dark adaptational characteristics of the compound eyes in the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) [0.03%]

The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda, is a highly destructive agricultural pest native to the Americas, becoming a major invasive species worldwide over the past decade. In this study, the ultrastructure of the compound eyes and light/d...
Copulatory mechanics in ghost spiders (Amaurobioidinae, Anyphaenidae) reveals an independent regressive evolution of a key genital trait through functional replacement [0.03%]
隐翅蛛科幽灵蜘蛛的交配力学揭示了通过功能替代产生的关键性状的独立回归进化
