A New Genus of Ricaniidae (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha) from the Late Eocene Bembridge Marls, Isle of Wight, United Kingdom
A new monospecific fossil genus of ricaniid planthoppers (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Ricaniidae), Worako gen. nov., is described with Worako yulei sp. nov. The fossil is reported from the Late Eocene Insect Bed of the Bembridge Marls, Isle of Wight, UK. It is the second record of Ricaniidae from these strata and...Stroiński, Adam ; Ross, Andrew J ; Szwedo, Jacek

Revision of the western Palaearctic species of Aleiodes Wesmael (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Rogadinae). Part 2: Revision of the A. apicalis group
The West Palaearctic species of the Aleiodes apicalis group (Braconidae: Rogadinae) as defined by van Achterberg & Shaw (2016) are revised. Six new species of the genus Aleiodes Wesmael, 1838, are described and illustrated: A. carbonaroides van Achterberg & Shaw, sp. nov., A. coriaceus van Achterberg & Shaw, sp. nov.,...van Achterberg, Cornelis ; Shaw, Mark R ; Quicke, Donald L J

Modelling the dynamic biogeography of the wildcat: implications for taxonomy and conservation
There is still no clear consensus on how to relate geographical variation in the morphology and genetics of the globally widespread wildcat Felis silvestris to its taxonomy and systematics. Reconstructing the dynamic biogeography of the wildcat provides insight into how current geographical patterns of morphological and molecular variation may have...Kitchener, Andrew C ; Rees, E.E.

Staminate flower of Prunus s. l. (Rosaceae) from Eocene Rovno amber (Ukraine)
The late Eocene ambers provide plethora of animal and plant fossils including well-preserved angiosperm flowers from the Baltic amber. The Rovno amber from NW Ukraine resembles in many aspects the Baltic amber; however, only fossilized animals and some bryophytes have yet been studied from the Rovno amber. We provide the...Sokoloff, Dmitry D ; Ignatov, Michael S ; Remizowa, Margarita V ; Nuraliev, Maxim S ; Blagoderov, Vladimir …

Postglacial recolonization and Holocene diversification of Crocidura suaveolens (Mammalia, Soricidae) on the north-western fringe of the European continent
Phenotypic variation was characterized in 187 modern and archaeological specimens of the lesser white-toothed shrew (Crocidura suaveolens), obtained from both insular and continental European locations. Geometric morphometric methods were used to quantify variation in size and shape of the mandible. The phenotypic distance between populations, and the influence of several...
