Figure 4 in The suprageneric groups of the Pimplinae (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae): a cladistic re-evaluation and evolutionary biological study

Figure 4. Cladogram resulting from primary analysis: section 4 (of 13), the higher Pimplini. Note the strongly monophyletic nature of the Xanthopimpla and Pimpla genus-groups, and of the two genera, Lissopimpla and Xanthopimpla, comprising the former group.

Figure 1. Cladogram resulting from primary analysis: section 1 (of 13), outgroups and tribes of Pimplini, showing characters supporting both the monophyly of the subfamily and the several tribes. Autapomorphies are represented by black rectangles, postulated parallelisms by stippled rectangles, and reversals by white rectangles. This convention is adopted in all subsequent cladograms.

Note that the Theronia group is paraphyletic with respect to the Pimpla and Xanthopimpla genus-groups, and that the more restricted genera, Theronia and Neotheronia, are polyphyletic.

Experimental evaluation of how biological invasions and climate change interact to alter the vertical assembly of an amphibian community

<ol> <li>While biotic-abiotic interactions are increasingly documented in nature, a process-based understanding of how such interactions influence community assembly is lacking in the ecological literature. Perhaps the most emblematic and pervasive example of such interactions is the synergistic threat to biodiversity posed by climate change and invasive species. Invasive species often out-compete or prey on native species. Despite this long-standing and widespread issue, little is known about how abiotic conditions, such as climate change, will influence the frequency and severity of negative biotic interactions that threaten the persistence of native fauna.</li> <li>Treefrogs are a globally diverse group of amphibians that climb to complete life-cycle processes, such as foraging and reproduction, as well as to evade predators and competitors, resulting in frog communities that are vertically partitioned. Furthermore, treefrogs adjust their vertical position to maintain optimal body temperature and hydration in response to environmental change. Here, utilizing this model group, we designed a novel experiment to determine how extrinsic abiotic and biotic factors (changes to water availability and an introduced predator, respectively) interact with intrinsic biological traits, such as individual physiology and behavior, to influence treefrogs’ vertical niche.  </li> <li>Our study found that treefrogs adjusted their vertical niche through displacement behaviors in accordance with abiotic resources. However, biotic interactions resulted in native treefrogs distancing themselves from abiotic resources to avoid the non-native species. Importantly, under altered abiotic conditions, both native species avoided the non-native species  –  more than they avoided their native counterpart. Additionally, exposure to the non-native species resulted in native species altering their tree climbing behaviors by  and becoming more vertically dynamic to avoid the non-native antagonist.</li> <li>Our experiment determined that vertical niche selection and community interactions were most accurately represented by a biotic-abiotic interaction model, rather than a model that considers these factors to operate in an isolated (singular) or even additive manner. Our study provides evidence that native species may be resilient to interacting disturbances via physiological adaptations to local climate and plasticity in space-use behaviors that mediate the impact of the introduced predator. </li> </ol>

Raw data for: Evaluating the impact of alyssum flower strips on biological control of key pests in flue-cured tobacco agroecosystems

Flue-cured tobacco, Nicotiana tabacum (L.) is often attacked by various pests such as aphids, whiteflies, and tobacco budworms. Insecticide application has been the primary method in managing these pests in Yunnan province. However, it is necessary to look for more sustainable strategies that can help control pests. In this context, conservation biological control is a highly promising alternative, involving the cultivation or conservation of flowering plants within the agricultural ecosystem to attract and support natural enemies. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of alyssum, Lobularia maritima (L.) Desv. in attracting natural enemies and managing pests in flue-cures tobacco cultivation. The study conducted two field experiments over successive years, each with two treatments and three replicates, arranged in a completely randomized design. The treatments were (1) tobacco monoculture, and (2) tobacco intercropped with alyssum flower strips. The population density of natural enemies and pests was monitored weekly throughout the study period. The results showed that the presence of alyssum flowers in the tobacco + alyssum treatment significantly increased the abundance of generalist predators such as syrphids, rove beetles, carabids, Orius sp., and spiders during both experiments. This increase in predator population led to a substantial reduction in tobacco pests, particularly aphids. Intercropping alyssum with tobacco can serve as an effective strategy for managing pests specific to the Nicotiana plant, as well as addressing the limited availability of approved insecticides for this crop. This approach may help to mitigate pest-related issues and reduce the reliance on insecticides in tobacco cultivation, contributing to more sustainable pest management practices.

Supplementary material for a usability evaluation of a semantic search for biological datasets

We conducted a usability evaluation for a semantic dataset search with 20 biodiversity scholars in June and July 2022 in Germany. Following the TREC guidelines (https://www-nlpir.nist.gov/projects/t9i/spec.html), we setup eight user tasks and surveys with questionnaires to guide users through the evaluation. The zip file provides questionnaires, survey templates and the original results. A Jupyter notebook for data analysis is provided in our GitHub repository: <a href="https://github.com/fusion-jena/semantic-search-usability-analysis">https://github.com/fusion-jena/semantic-search-usability-analysis</a>
