We describe a new and unusual myrmecophilous behaviour displayed by the darkling beetle, Scaurus uncinus (Forster, 1771) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), accessing nests of the harvester ant, Messor barbarus (Linnaeus, 1767) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), in

Due to its cold and dry climate and scarcity of ice-free land, Antarctica has one of the most extreme environments on our planet. To survive in the Antarctic region, parasitic arthropods must either remain closely associated with their hosts througho

Publikováno v: Polar Biology. 44:2099-2105

Studies of parasitism in chinstrap penguins (Pygoscelis antarctica) are infrequent and mainly refer to the identification and description of its parasites, with little ecological data. In an attempt to address that lack of knowledge, we collected end

Science versus vernacular: should some taxa of animals and plants be renamed according to ‘indigenous’ practices?

Autor: Ricardo L. Palma, A.C.G. Heath

Publikováno v: Bionomina. 22

A recent publication recommended that so-called ‘indigenous’ names should be given priority over conventional binominals when assigning nomina to taxa. Explicit political and sociological reasons were given why such a practice should be considere
