Researchers describe, for the first time, the structure of a smell-receptor protein common among insects. Its inner architecture illuminates how insects evolved to detect an amazing diversity of odors ...

Researchers have discovered a rule to predict an arthropod community structure based on the genomic variation in a foundation tree species. Generally, spatial and temporal factors affect how ...

The morphology of the pygypodia, the eversable terminal appendages of the abdomens of photurid firefly larvae, was studied with particular reference to the integumental and muscle systems. The ...

Insect odorant receptors (ORs) comprise an enormous protein family that translates environmental chemical signals into neuronal electrical activity. These heptahelical receptors are proposed to ...

Selbyana, Vol. 19, No. 2, CANOPY PROCEEDINGS (1998), pp. 147-154 (8 pages) The canopy structure and spatial distribution of flying insects in a riverside forest canopy were studied. Based on insect ...

Most of the volume of epithelial cell bodies containing nuclei are aligned as a monolayer on the apical (upper) side. They extend pillarlike cell processes in a basal (downward) direction. At the ...

TO compose a work on so extensive and difficult a subject as “British Insects,”which shall convey a large amount of useful and interesting information without being too much overloaded with bare facts ...
