Camouflaged, neutral or bright and spinny? How the type of web spiders build influences how they protect themselves from predators. Excited to see our work out in Insect Systematics and Diversity Entomological Society of America UBCBiodiversity UBC Zoology andrea haberkern, M.S. academic.oup.com/isd/article/8/…
Our recent review on the potential impact of multiple anthropogenic stressors on avian species. We point out that anthropogenic stressors often occur simultaneously, and thus the joint effects should be considered. Congrats to Grace Blackburn and Camilla Soravia!

Not what you usually think of when you think bee! These are native bees, Brachyhesma, Euryglossinae. We have some of the tiniest bees in the world ! If you’d like to learn more about native bees email me at [email protected] for an ID guide Invertebrates Australia 🪲 Taxonomy Australia
BINGO! Yet another museum #echidna with its feet pointing in the wrong direction. In life, #echidnas' back feet point backwards, but people in #museums in Europe didn't know this. #MuseumNerdsAbroad Muséum de Toulouse
I’ll be presenting at #BeeCon24 ! 🤩 The research paper on this is currently under review in Apidologie Springer Nature …has been for 6 months 😕 and this is the revision!) but hopefully it’ll be published soon! Zong-Xin Ren Mark Murphy York University University of Southern Queensland Curtin MLS
The issue is the threatened species that are threatened but not on the threatened list - like many native #bees eg Leioproctus zephyr jhr.pensoft.net/article/85685/ Invertebrates Australia 🪲 Biodiversity Council
