Fig. 2. Neuroparenchyma. Fig. 2a: Armadillo B. High numbers of eosinophils and lymphocytes expand the perivascular spaces. A focus of hemorrhage, eosinophils, and glial cells interrupts the neuroparenchyma. Photomicrographs are stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E). Bar = 200 Mm. Fig. 2b: Armadillo A. Cross section of a nematode larva (200 Mm width) within the thalamus is characterized by a smooth cuticle, coelomyarian musculature, lateral cords, and a distinct pharynx (consistent with a metastrongyle). No inflammatory cells surround the nematode. H&E, Bar = 50 Mm.

Fig. 1 in Actions of the fire ant Solenopsis saevissima (Smith) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) on a big-eared opossum carcass

Fig. 1. Carcass of big-eared opossum (Didelphis aurita) colonized by fire ants Solenopsis saevissima (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) and other insects on 12 Nov 2017, Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais, Brazil. (A) Fire ants initially monopolized the carcass, constructing a dirt mound on the muzzle, thus displaying the burying behavior of the ants. (B) Circled are ants beginning construction of a soil mound near the tail. (C) Diptera depositing eggs on the carcass. Afer the carcass was moved to the periphery of the roadway, the ants lost their dominance to other necrophagous insects. (D) Skeletonized carcass; ants and other necrophagous insects remained until the end of the decomposition process.

Figs 2-6. Agonistic behavior between a in The hard task of a short-tailed mouse opossum (Monodelphis) to prey a harvestman (Arachnida: Opiliones)

Figs 2-6. Agonistic behavior between a harvestman of the family Gonyleptidae and the mouse opossum Monodelphis dimidiata (Wagner, 1847). The interaction starts with the mouse opossum in an attack position, facing the harvestman (Fig. 2), then the marsupial staggers side to side (Fig. 3) and is knocked out (Fig. 4). This sequence of events is repeated two times, until the mouse opossum assumes its third attack position and attacks the harvestman (Fig. 5). The mouse opossum removes the harvestman's legs one by one to then feed on its body (Fig. 6). Image edited in the Inkscape software.
