Dung, dung, dungggggg! Did you know dung beetles could fly? Through a combination of wing shape, size & flight strategy, flying organisms (including the dung beetle) can move between and within habitats, but how do different flight strategies affect performance & habitat preference? (1/2) ๐ ๐งช
Ahh inselbergs, the terrestrial iceberg. Ancient rock outcrops with unique microclimates, they often have unique floral diversity that differs from their surroundings. In Atlantic Forest lowland inselbergs, bromeliads dominate & differ along a coastal-inland gradient, but why? A short ๐งต (1/2) ๐งช๐
Single celled ciliates are typically found in aquatic environments, but some ciliates (more like silly-ates) have evolved to inhabit the land! But how did these habitat preferences evolve? Using a dated phylogeny, this paper answers just that question...๐งช๐๐
