Wann erfolgt der Rücktritt von Frau Strobl?
Die ARD begeht perfide Wahlbeeinflussung pro CDU, durch Duell ohne Habeck!
(Frau Strobl ist Programmchefin der ARD, die Tochter von Schäuble und mit dem CDU-Vorsitzenden aus BAWÜ verheiratet!)
#StroblRücktritt

🆕Original Article: A new genus in a hyperdiverse ant lineage (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Myrmicinae) revealed by integration of morphological and molecular evidence.

Der CEO der Techniker Krankenkasse über Jens Spahn. Das ist eigentlich ein veritabler Skandal. Kein Wunder wieso die Beiträge so stark ansteigen.

Pleased to share the first paper from my PhD at @OISTedu, showing that #eusociality did not drive the expansions in the number of odorant receptors in #Hymenoptera! 🐜🐝
Big thanks to all my co-authors! @Dorylophile @Jules_For_Fools @Pangapaco Shûhei Yamamoto & @EvanEconomo

So, we tested this idea with a comprehensive comparative analysis, combining genomic and neuroanatomical data from a range of Hymenoptera, including from the 🧠of a 100-million-year-old ant fossil. 🐜🦴🤯
Shout out to Brendon Boudinot, @Formicadri and team's work on the fossil

New research article!📰
Khalife et al. studied intercastes in A. rugulosa, finding unique intermediate forms between workers and queens, which sheds light on the evolution of ant division of labor.🐜

What is the #ant Temnothorax unifasciatus? Great phenotypic variation, wide distribution range, and very interesting intraspecific patterns connected to glacial refugia - and some taxonomic misunderstandings

Brain, guts, and circulatory system of a Cambrian arthropod larva! The most amazingly preserved fossil I have ever seen.

Lucky to have been a part of this project led by Martin Smith and Emma Long.

How is this not trending right now???
These are images of newly discovered trilobite fossils preserved in fine pyroclastic ash at the Lemdad Valley of Morocco! They are never-before-seen details on the soft tissues normally not preserved in trilobites. – at Duluth, GA

Started off as an #amber found at the @PhylMuseum, turned out to be African copal, and even younger! Whole thing was a big process, from grinding, polishing, thoughts on amber, his history to new discoveries: dez.pensoft.net/article/1124… Thanks everyone for their contribution...

New fossil ants, insight into ant faunal turnover, and the persistence of the "platonic ant body plan"! Our paper on the youngest-yet stem ants from the Cretaceous, preserved in ~77 Ma North Carolina amber, is now out in Current Biology doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2024.0…

Understanding ant bodies: One scan at a time
The head anatomy of #Tatuidris was this year's #BestPaper, as voted on by the @MyrmecolNews community. Here, first author Adrian Richter talks about his academic journey and how to untangle ant evolution.

📢Fresh from the press:
Lots of fieldwork and bitten fingers lead to a #biteforce database of 654 #insect species! Check out the results of the great team effort of the @BlankeLab @ScientificData:
