Communications Media Effects and Technology Lab will give guests an opportunity to try their hand

A hallmark of complex human societies is the existence of surplus foods. Surplus foods enable people, past and present, to spend time on things other than producing food. Mullet, especially the striped mullet (Mugil cephalus), because of their predictable, mass-schooling behavior and preser
Since about 1990, many volunteers hand-collected and cleaned all animal bones, including

A $2.5 million National Science Foundation grant will launch a new initiative to “teleport� specimens from museum shelves to the internet by CT scanning 20,000 vertebrates and making these data-rich, 3-D images available to researchers, educators, students and the public. The oVert project, short
Specimens must be hand-selected, shipped, tracked, scanned, uploaded to MorphoSource

After a comprehensive study of plants across the United States, researchers have arrived at the unexpected conclusion that plants able to fix atmospheric nitrogen are most diverse in arid regions of the country. This finding runs counter to the prevailing assumption that nitrogen-fixers should be co
Bacteria, on the other hand, have mastered the trick of fixing atmospheric nitrogen

Riley Gott began his doctoral studies in August 2022 studying the taxonomy and systematics of the primarily Neotropical butterfly genera Dalla, Ladda, and Piruna (family Hesperiidae), under a joint graduate assistantship from the McGuire Center for Lepidoptera and Biodiversity and the Entomology and
Riley prefers hand-drawing illustrations to make significant details more visible

Acanthurus chirurgus This pancake-shaped reef fish is blue-gray to brown colored with thin, dark bars down its sides. It is sometimes offered as a fresh catch locally, but can cause ciguatera poisoning in humans. Handle with care during an encounter because of the sharp spines hidden in the c

On the other hand, the anatomy of the lower third premolar (Figure 4) based on the

In a surprise twist, a major group of flowering plants is evolving twice as quickly in temperate zones as the tropics. The finding runs counter to a long-held hypothesis that tropical regions, home to the planet’s richest biological diversity, outpace their temperate counterparts in producing new sp
“On the other hand, there seems to be a trend forming that, together with our study

At night in the Costa Rican cloud forest, Yash Sondhi and a small team of international scientists switched on a light and waited. Soon, insects big and small descended out of the darkness. Moths with spots like unblinking eyes on each wing. Shiny armored beetles. Flies. Once, even a praying mantis.
the very first experiments, I let a large yellow underwing moth take off from my hand

Entomologist Akito Kawahara’s message is straightforward: We can’t live without insects. They’re in trouble. And there’s something all of us can do to help. Kawahara’s research has primarily focused on answering fundamental questions about moth and butterfly evolution. But he’s increasingly haunt
You can give insects a hand – and reduce your electric bill – by turning off
