With the discovery of Tenkana jayamangali, our knowledge of jumping spider diversity has become a bit richer! (doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.1215…)
And oh, by the way, belated Happy International Jumping Spider Day!

It is such an honor to be part of @biologyatCU. I learned so much from my amazing colleagues and had a great experience working with the incredibly talented students who inspire me every day!
Congratulations to @Rassim_Kh, assistant professor in @Concordia Department of @biologyatCU, who has been awarded a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair for his groundbreaking work on #biodiversity loss and response to environmental stressors like #climatechange. bit.ly/3A1rOPf

Just out @genomeresearch. @realXinghua assembled a huge grasshopper genome and found widespread evidence of 400 million years of conservation of the X gene content in insects and temporal variation in Fast-X Evolution! genome.cshlp.org/content/ear… Liping Ban.

Cover image initiative at Evolution Letters! We are looking for artists who would like to work with authors of Evolution Letters Editor’s Pick papers to design cover images for upcoming journal issues!!

We have moved to a dynamic cover @EvolLetters!! The old image served us well, but we are looking to connect aspiring evolutionary artists with authors for a new initiative. Our first beautiful image is by @jacejostles for this issue’s Editor’s Choice doi.org/10.1093/evlett/qrad0….

Excited to share a new preprint w/ @gerlame!
Here we demystify MacArthur’s consumer resource model and share insights its provided to our mechanistic understanding and biological intuition of how competition and coexistence operate.

I’m delighted to be attending the @ZoologyUBC 100 year celebration symposium thanks to @kweiosis. Here is to the next century of magic!
I was also honored (and very terrified) to be speaking in same science session as two of my all-time science heroes: Peter and Rosemary Grant!
