A new study on the mating behavior of jumping bristletail (Petrobiellus akkesiensis) reports the first documented case of direct sperm transfer via genital coupling in apterygote hexapods. The study ...
Insect evolution is characterised by deep divergences and rapid radiations that have given rise to unparalleled terrestrial biodiversity. Phylogenetic analysis integrates molecular, morphological and ...
Scientists have uncovered a 151-million-year-old midge fossil in Australia that challenges long-held views about insect evolution. Named Telmatomyia talbragarica, the fossil shows freshwater ...
Deep under the Jurassic rock beds of New South Wales, scientists discovered fossilized insects that push back the history of one of the world’s most hardy families of flies. These fragile traces, ...
Stick insects keep evolving to have the same strange body plans over and over again, scientists have discovered. This evolutionary blueprint has enabled researchers to predict the critters' next ...
