This study addresses the long‐standing uncertainty about the internal classification of
soldier beetles (Elateroidea: Cantharidae). Four datasets were compiled and analysed: 66 …

Biologists have reported on the chemical defences and the phenetic similarity of net-winged
beetles (Coleoptera: Lycidae) and their co-mimics. Nevertheless, our knowledge has …

Gondwanan elaterids, previously thought to be unrelated, include bioluminescent
Campyloxenus earlier placed in bioluminescent Pyrophorinae. Genomic data suggest close …

Batesian mimicry is seen as an example of evolution by natural selection, with predation as
the main driving force. The mimic is under selective pressure to resemble its model, whereas …

Chauliognathus fallax Germar 1824 (Coleoptera: Cantharidae) occurs in North and South
America and Australia. Gas chromatographic (GC) analyses of volatiles released by adults …

В конце XX века систематика получила в свое распоряжение уникальный инструмент,
открывший для исследователей новые возможности,–сравнительный анализ …

Biological mimicry has long been viewed as a powerful example of natural selection's ability
to drive phenotypic evolution, although continuing debates surround the mechanisms …

The venom glands of fishes represent a widespread, putatively adaptive antipredatory trait,
which have received little attention relative to those of other venomous organisms. I review …
