▪ Abstract Insect molecular systematics has undergone remarkable recent growth. Advances
in methods of data generation and analysis have led to the accumulation of large amounts of …

Over the past three decades, a range of mosquito-borne viruses that threaten public and
veterinary health have emerged or re-emerged in Europe. Mosquito surveillance activities …

Insectivorous bats provide ecosystem services in agricultural and urban landscapes by
consuming arthropods that are considered pests. Bat species inhabiting cities are expected …

Insects comprise the largest species composition in the entire animal kingdom and possess
a vast undiscovered genetic diversity and gene pool that can be better explored using …

Collembola comprise a major source of alternative prey to linyphiid spiders in arable fields,
helping to sustain and retain these predators as aphid control agents within the crop …

A set of mitochondrial COI primers has been studied by genomic PCR and many primer
combinations shown to work universally well across Insects. They are able to amplify various …

Calcrete aquifers in arid inland Australia have recently been found to contain the world's
most diverse assemblage of subterranean diving beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae). In this …

Four gene regions were sequenced for 30 species of jumping spiders, most from the
subfamily Dendryphantinae, to investigate their molecular phylogeny and evolution. These …

DNA barcoding has focused increasing attention on the use of specific regions of
mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I and II genes (COI–COII) to diagnose and delimit …

Diversifying selection on metabolic pathways can reduce intraspecific gene flow and
promote population divergence. An opportunity to explore this arises from mitonuclear …
